Purchased from the Rogue Buccaneers Provisioner at the Rogue Buccaneers. Each unit costs 20 Piastre, which is double the 10-Piastre price of the Rare-tier base tool sold by the same faction. The pattern holds across all four Improved tool variants.
There is no player-craft path for this item. It is purchased and consumed as a crafting-station unlock rather than produced from raw materials. Players who plan to push a full Epic tier of the associated armor or weapon line should budget 20 Piastre plus reputation time with the Rogue Buccaneers.
Epic-tier firearms and leather armor recipes, layered on top of the Rare-tier recipes enabled by the base Master's Tools.
The base-tier tool stays installed alongside the Improved variant; the two do not replace each other. The Improved variant simply adds the Epic-tier recipes to the crafting menu in addition to the Rare-tier ones already enabled.
In practice the Epic tier this tool opens covers the high-end firearm line, the Pistol, Musket, and Blunderbuss, together with leather-class gear such as the Flibustier Set and the Tracker Set. The cloth-side Marksman Set sits in the same firearm-and-leather workshop tree that these tools gate.
Improved Master's Tools behave like a consumable upgrade key rather than a held tool. You buy the unit and apply it to the relevant workshop, which permanently adds the Epic recipes to that station's menu. Because it is vendor stock with no crafting recipe of its own, the only gate is Piastre plus standing with the Rogue Buccaneers. Pair it with the base Master's Tools so both the Rare and Epic recipe rows are available at once.
Master's Tools (Rare, 10 Piastre) - unlocks Rare-tier recipes.
Improved Master's Tools (Epic, 20 Piastre) - unlocks Epic-tier recipes on top of the Rare tier.
