Max Smith Stats Guide for Holy Potatoes! A Weapon Shop?!
By compking86
This guide is a chart listing the maximum stats each of the 34 smiths in the base game.

I gathered these stats by leveling all 11 of the smith classes to max on every smith, then I switched them to Master Smith because that is the class that has highest stats. I did not include buffs or penalties that smiths get from travelling or from random events.

I did not determine maximum cost for each smith, because leveling merchant and explorer to 15 on every smith would be much more time consuming.

I listed the smiths in the same order that they are listed in the in-game journal. This does not include smiths from Promo Codes or expansions because I have not used those.

I hope this guide is helpful in choosing which smiths you want to level, and which you want to avoid.

This was my first step in making a much larger guide, but I decided breaking this part off by itself would be helpful. I may break other parts of the guide off as well, I will have to decide later.

Introduction
This guide for Holy Potatoes! A Weapon Shop?! Is here to help people decide between smiths in the game.

There are 3 major sections.

1. Smiths listed in the same order as the in-game journal with max stats for each of the 4 stats, and the sum of the 4 max stats.

2. Smiths listed from 1-20 in order from highest to lowest total max stats.

3. Smiths listed from 1-5 in order from highest to lowest max stat in 1 specific stat.

The stats are achieved by leveling the smith to max in all 11 classes, then changing the smith to the Master Smith class. There are no buffs or penalties included. The smiths listed are from the base game, no expansions or Promo Code smiths are included.
Smiths in Journal Order
Here is the bulk of the guide, the list of some of the max stats for the smiths.

I listed it in table format, hoping it would make the list easier to read.

I also included the Region that the smith is first recruited from in numerical order from 1-4.

The 5 smiths at the end of the list are the Legendary Smiths.

Top 20 Max Stat Total Smiths
This list contains the same information as the previous section, with only 3 changes. I sorted the smiths by Max Stat Total, removed the Region, and limited the list to 20, because the smiths after 20 are not worthwhile in my personal opinion.

A maxed out smith earns $20,924 per month (Virtuoso, Master Smith, Merchant and Explorer all lvl 15).

I would also need to know where he shows up in the journal, and what region you can originally recruit him in.

Maybe you'd accept if people provided screenshots?

I only included the smiths I could personally verify, and I have not gotten any of the smiths from promo codes or expansions.

Perhaps if multiple people can verify the stats of those other smiths, I could add them, but I would have to think about it.

My main motivation in making this list was because another author had made a similar guide, that also listed cost, then that author deleted it entirely when I commented that some of the costs appeared to be incorrect.
