Augmentations in Nightingale is a gameplay feature that enhances crafting stations with new recipes and station traits depending on where you place them. With limited station traits available for each crafting station, this provides a more strategic element to crafting where you’ll need to decide what you want each crafting station to specify in. For example, the Anvil Augmentation adds recipes to the tools and tailor stations. What this means is that the Anvil will need to be placed near the Workbench, Sewing Bench, Spinning Wheel, and a few other stations to get the full effect of the Augmentation. When you factor in that each station is limited to eight station traits, you need to ask yourself whether you really need those specific recipes for those stations. The list below will show you every augmentation, what realm you can find the schematic, and what Augmentation Traits it has.
Craft and place Augmentations around specific stations to unlock more recipe opportunities.
