Changes

A: The caravan is a persistent group that follows the heroes across [[Sanctuary]], providing a centralized hub for players to find [[quest]] givers, [[craft]]ers, and other important [[NPC]]s. As your character moves through the world so too will your loyal band, setting up in specific locations to remain close by should you need them.

'''Q: Who are the artisans?'''

A: In order to access the professions in Diablo III, you'll need to gain the loyalty of various [[artisan]]s through your travels in Sanctuary. The [[blacksmith]], [[mystic]], and [[jeweler]] will each provide unique services over the course of the game.

'''Q: What do the artisans offer?'''

A: [[Skill]]ing up your artisans will unlock unique [[recipe]]s, granting your character access to benefits that may not be found anywhere else in the world. The blacksmith crafts [[weapon]]s and [[armor]], and can add [[sockets]] to some [[item]]s. The mystic creates [[scroll]]s, [[potion]]s, magical weapons, [[spell]] [[runes]], and [[charm]]s, and can also [[enchant]] items. The jeweler crafts [[gems]] , [[amulets]], and [[rings]]. The jeweler can also remove gems from socketed items and can combine gems to improve their quality.

'''Q: How do I find the artisans?'''

A: Finding the artisans will be part of the main quest. Each artisan has been fleshed out to include their own story and quest line.

'''Q: How do I use the artisans?'''

A: You'll collect loot as a reward for slaughtering the forces of the [[Burning Hells]]. Unwanted items can be [[salvage]]d in your [[inventory]], converting these goods into raw crafting materials -- higher-level items are salvaged into higher-level materials. You'll then take those raw materials and hand them over to the artisans, putting them to work crafting or enchanting for you. Upon returning to the caravan after a lengthy foray, you may also find that the artisans have been hard at work plying their trade for your benefit.

'''Q: How do I salvage my items?'''

A: Players will find an item while progressing through the main quest that will allow them to convert unwanted gear into crafting materials from the inventory. This item will not take up any inventory space. This should be a more satisfying option for offloading unwanted loot than the alternative -- dropping things on the ground or making frequent trips to a [[vendor]].

'''Q: Why are you including crafting professions in an action game?'''
