Minecraft Dungeons:Blacksmith

"Upgrades items while you complete missions."

- In-game description

The blacksmith is a merchant that can upgrade the player's items. It appears in the Camp after being rescued by the player in Redstone Mines.

Appearance
The blacksmith appears similar to the base game's armorer villager, however, the eyes covers on the mask are bright purple, the metal mask is now covering their eyes, and their apron has a bright purple pattern in the middle. They also do not have sleeves.

Interaction
The blacksmith is able to upgrade items in exchange for emeralds. In order to do this, the player must sacrifice the item to the Blacksmith. After completing three missions, the player gets the upgraded weapon. The power level of the upgraded item will be determined by the difficulty of the three missions the player completed as well as the player’s power level whilst being upgraded. Although all enchantments on the item are removed, the choices of available enchantments will be the same as those of the original item. If were spent on that item before, the hero receives them all back after sacrificing item to the Blacksmith.

Captured blacksmith
Prior to the Creeping Winter update, the blacksmith was a merchant who would sell players a random weapon or armor set that would be equivalent to their power level, it would be in the camp along with the wandering trader, who would sell artifacts. It would appear in the player's camp after beating the level. It was overhauled in the Creeping Winter update and was made to upgrade items instead of giving them, along with its appearance being changed. Its original functionality has been replaced by the mystery merchant. The old texture is now currently used for the captured Blacksmith when heroes free it from it’s captivity in the Redstone Mines.

Trivia

 * The old Blacksmith armorer texture from the base gaem is still used in the Redstone Mines mission when the hero frees the Blacksmith.
 * The number of emeralds required to upgrade an item depends on its rarity, costing the least with Common items, and costing the most with gilded items. Gilded items cost about three times as much as the same gear without being gilded.
 * The number of Emeralds also depends on the type of the item, costing the most with artifacts. And also depend on how many times the item has been upgraded before.
