1: If the normal 70 item inventory seems too small, you can buy backpacks to raise your limit. You can buy a backpack at each of the following locations, and increase your limit by 10 with each backpack.

Gorhart: The Corner Shop
Ysa: Asker's Alley
Adessa: Domus Politica
Rathir: The main Scholia Arcana building
Mel Senshir: The central courtyard area


2: Kill the seller in 'Mel Senshir' (the one you got the last one from) - now you have to sleep over in some place 'at least' 4 nights.
(I usually teleport to the tournament place & sleep on the floor next between the vendors).
Also make sure when you kill him he is close to his stand, not when he is wandering too far from it.
I usually do this 'till I have '160~200 items' backpack (you're increasing yours by 10 every kill {he will have new backpack available for sale}).


3: Good supplement! But it is not necessary to make your killing near the seller's stand, though sometimes it is possible that when you "throw" his body onto somewhere you have no access, he'll revive there, thus making trouble. In fact, if you somehow make him revive far away from his stand, you have a possibility to kill him without causing others' notice， and then you don't have to pay for your crime!

However, sometimes you will find that the seller at Mel Senshir just will not revive, despite the days you have slept for. That is because you forgot to loot the seller after each kill. If you somehow find it impossible to loot him, don't worry, find somewhere and sleep for more than 10 days and everything will be OK! Enjoy yourself!

Combining Blacksmithing with Sagecrafting is one of the best ways to get powerful gear in the game. The crafty (see what I did there?) folks from the official forums found a way to get flawless components. The process is a little convoluted but definitely worth it.
First, you need to find out what’s possible to make:

Weapons

Flawless Magnifying Rivets (+7% Chance to Critical Hit) Gem of Precision inside a shield. (also worked with gloves) Flawless Amplified Bindings (+15% Critical Hit Damage With Physical)Gem of Amplitude with a longbow Flawless Damaging Hilt (+30 Physical Damage) Galvanizing Gem inside crafted daggers Flawless Bloodseeker’s Fulcrum (15% Chance to Steal 25 Health per Hit) Faeblade with a Gem of Bloodletting Flawless Piercing’s Fulcrum/Hilt (+25 Piercing Damage) LongBow/Dagger with Saboteur’s Gem Flawless Elemental Hilt/Shaft (Fire, Frost, Shock or Poison damage) Gem of Incineration, Winter, Tempest, Rot inside sword/hammer

Armor

Flawless Divine Bindings (+20% Mana) Robes and an Oracle’s Gem Flawless Strengthening Bindings (+20% Health) Chestpiece with Hero’s gem (+20% health) Flawless Sustaining Grip/Bindings (+2 Health Regeneration) Chestpiece/Glove with Regenerating Gem Flawless Strengthening Rivets (+20% health) Chestpiece with Hero’s Gem Flawless Sustaining Rivets (+2 Health Regen) Chestpiece with Regenerating Gem Greater Armored String (+20% armor) Chestpiece with Paramount Gem Flawless Restoring Grip (+2 Mana Regeneration) Shield and Rejuvenating Gem Flawless Rigid Lining/Trim (+35 Armor) Gem of Impregnability (Armor Gem, Physical + Poison) + Mage Chestpiece Flawless Displacing Trim (+15% Physical Resistance ) Gem of Tempering inside of a Rogue Cap

Next, you need to know what parts are required to make what you want. Let’s say it’s a greatsword. Aside from the core component, which you can get by salvaging a greatsword, you’ll need a Hilt, Grip and Bindings.
The Weapons table shows three Hilts:

• Flawless Damaging Hilt (+30 Physical Damage)
• Flawless Piercing’s Fulcrum/Hilt (+25 Piercing Damage)
• Flawless Elemental Hilt/Shaft (Fire, Frost, Shock or Poison damage)

Let’s say you want a Flawless Damaging Hilt. To get it, you’ll need the following:

• Small Blades x1
• Hilt x1
• Pristine Physical Shard x2

Note that at this stage of the process component level does not matter. You can use the crappiest Small Blade and Hilt you have and you’ll get the same results.
Next, on to crafting:

• Combine the 2 shards to make a Galvanizing Gem.
• Combine Small Blades, Hilt and Galvanizing Gem to make the daggers.
• Save your game.
• Salvage the newly-crafted daggers and hope you get a Flawless Damaging Hilt. If you don’t, reload then try again.
• Optional step: Consult the charts above if you want other flawless components (such as Grips and Bindings).
• Craft the gem you want for your greatsword.
• Combine the parts with the best core component for your level.
• Congratulations! You now have a weapon good enough to last till the next component level.
