Pillars of Eternity 2: Crafting and enchanting items Pillars Of Eternity 2 Guide and Walkthrough

Last update: 20 November 2022

Regardless of the chosen character class, in Pillars of Eternity 2 Deadfire you can create new items and enchant weapons. Both actions require materials. You can buy them at vendors, pick-up from the defeated opponents, or simply find them during exploration. Most of the items will prove to be useful - plants, gems, food, or iron (remember that your party has unlimited space in their backpacks, so pick up every item you find). Gold will also be useful - crafting and enchanting require money. Crafting and enchanting are available at any location, provided you are outside of combat.

The range of effects is even more wider - the available bonuses begin with simple damage upgrade and end on additional spells for your character.
