The Legendary Blacksmith's Breath skill is one of the default skills acquired by Grid after becoming Pagma's Descendant.
Information[]
While the Rating is important, the Legendary Blacksmith's Breath also plays a critical role in production. If the breath is not triggered, an item does not have any additional options und options are exactly as mentioned in the production method. Besides, the rating of an item has no influence on the options. Still, the additional options can increase the rating even further to what is written in the production method. And even if not, an item with a lower rating can be better than one with a higher rating due to the additional options and basic abilities unless the rating is better. Of course, the breath skill does not necessarily give new options. They are random but the increased basic abilities are granted.[1] The bonus effect stacks with the Legendary Blacksmith's Craftsmanship skill.[2] The breath buff increases durability and attack power in addition.[3]
The breath has a synergy with the Legendary Blacksmith's Patience. As soon as the stamina falls, the patience increases the concentration noticeably, which increases the chance of the breath.[4] The probability for the Legendary Blacksmith's Breath being activated is much less than for the patience skill as long as concentration is not maintained.[5] But after the mastering, the ratio is reversed.[6] However, the triggering cannot be achieved simply by raising concentration. Luck also plays a role.[7] But while studying and searching for the correlation between the melting, forging and hardening that God Hexetia can be doing, the skill changed to a passive skill and luck for activation no longer plays a role.[8] Based on that power, the concentration can reaches the limit to trigger the skill. And with the activating of the patience skill, the limit will be reached.[9]
The breath activates when sweating in front of the fire gives a sense of fulfilment while something is self-made and not just mere labor. As if no pleasure is felt, no matter what someone does, but there is a talent that can be shown and that is enough. The harmony with the hammer is the moment in which stability and contentment are felt and a better performance than the expectations is finished due to the breath skill.[10] But the breath cannot be used intentionally, so that it is hard to raise the experience and the level while making items. According to the description, it should be activated every time an item is made, but the breath activates only occasionally. It is not enough to do the best every time. The concept of ‘concentration’ is more difficult than described.[11]
The concentration is at its highest level when colleagues are in a crisis. Because of a different mindset a higher concentration can be exert than usual in the production of an item. By suppressing the anxiety and nerves from imagining the worst situation the concentration naturally rise during this process.[12] It is the silently focussing that lets nothing obstruct it. The only things that at present exist in the world are the material, the anvil and the hammer. There is nothing else. The hammer and the blacksmith are no longer separate existences. They are fully joined. The hammer is the blacksmith and blackshmith is the hammer. The body and hammer moves as one. Under this extreme concentration the legendary blacksmith's breath is activated. Only at the end of a long work the blacksmith finally returnes to reality.[13]
The wish to want something can raise the concentration to a higher level, the stage of self-transcendence, where even one forgets oneself. The blacksmith cannot distinguish himself from the hammer and as a result the material become further tempered.[14] The blacksmith has not the intention to produce the item roughly, because it is the most important part.[15] The work must be delicate and brilliant while maintaining the peak concentration.[16] In order not to lose the timing, the blacksmith does not even blink when gazing. ‘Just a little bit more’ drives the thoughts while hammering repeatedly at constant intervals to receive the compensation effect. Filled with joy, the concentration heightens and the hammering becomes stronger when entering a state of nothingness. It is being able to enter a higher spiritual realm than the elves who had lived for hundreds of years and received the protection of nature and the elementals.[17]
With a concentration at the limit, the blacksmith is solely focused on his work. Even from the moment when danger emerges, not a single moment of agitation is shown. It is no exaggeration to say that the blacksmith is not aware of the danger taking place. The work will be tempered into its ideal form, and all its potential power will be pulled out. The hammering becomes more delicate as the concentration rise endlessly. The constant reoccurring effects of the Blacksmith's Breath make the metal extremely robust.[18] The result of an item does not just depend on the value of the material. The more important thing is the skill, intentions, and will of the maker while the blacksmith is extremely focused.[19] A blacksmith does not need to look elsewhere for the meaning of his existence. Working as a blacksmith, craftsman proves why they exist in this world. They just need to focus on blacksmithing. There is no one who could deny their existence when they work as a blacksmith in a passionate manner.[20]
