- Class Description

Description
The is an attack class that focuses primarily on upgrading swords with gemstones. This class is viable for players of all skill levels, as its ability to directly improve swords, strong starting weapon that can also be upgraded multiple times, will help the player rack up as many as possible by not needing to buy swords in the earlier worlds.

Strategies

 * Try to get gemstones when possible, by using the Blacksmith's first ability, Dig, or by purchasing some at the Forge.
 * Do note that you can only upgrade the Brass Sword once per world, so purchasing too many gemstones might lead to a loss in.
 * Brass Sword paired with decent gemstones, and lucky Amethyst upgrades can easily become the best weapon in the game, dealing massive damage. However, it is also important to know when you should swap your Brass Sword with a new sword from the shop.
 * You should purchase a new sword to upgrade when your Brass Sword's lunge damage is lower than the damage of the swords in the shop. However, this might not always be the case as if you are decently skilled at the game, you can save even more circuits by sticking with the Brass Sword.
 * In earlier worlds, always upgrade the Brass Sword with gemstones that give flat damage, such as Aquamarine or Topaz. Once you have around 60-80 lunge damage, you may upgrade the Brass Sword with gemstones that give percentage-based damage, such as the Emerald.
 * Do not activate Smith when the center (or centre) of the room is obstructed by a wall.
 * Be careful when activating Smith in a room with droids, as you may accidentally place your sword on the anvil while trying to fight them.
 * This class is not really great in multiplayer, as the already high charges required to activate Dig will be raised even more.
 * This class is useful when trying to get Patience as their sword is able to scale in damage when worlds are cleared. Another class that is useful for acquiring Patience is the Wanderer and Sentient.

Trivia

 * This class is one of the four classes added in 1.5.
