Template:Freehold building blueprints

Freehold building blueprints dictate the base appearance of freehold buildings.^[1]^[2]

You essentially can get these uniquely acquired blueprints and then you can trade and sell them to other players who might not have had the same opportunity to acquire them..^[1] – Steven Sharif

Freehold building blueprints and their associated materials are required to construct freehold buildings.^[3]

Blueprints specify mechanical properties, buffs, and passive benefits that the building will have. Rarer blueprints will have more powerful effects.^[4]
- Some freehold buildings have multiple tiers, with different footprint sizes.^[5]

Blueprints are the vehicle for which unique mechanical properties or in-game properties are delivered to the player. So, buildings can have certain types of buffs and passive benefits that are conferred based on the quality of the blueprint that's been acquired. The rarer the blueprint, the more powerful its effect.^[4] – Steven Sharif

Blueprints can be obtained from multiple sources.^[1]
- Blueprints obtained from vendors or as rewards from nodes may take on the architecture of that node.^[6]^[1]^[2]^[7] Players may change this appearance by applying cosmetic freehold skins to the blueprint.^[1]^[8] Blueprints may also be affected by the type of node.^[6]
- Blueprints can drop from bosses.^[1]
- Scribes can write blueprints with specific unique looks.^[1]
- Freehold building blueprints can be sold and/or traded with other players.^[9]^[1]

Freehold skins can be applied to blueprints that match the type of freehold building: housing, artisanship, and business.^[10]^[2]^[1]^[11]^[7]^[12]
- The blueprints must be obtained in-game first before any cosmetics can be applied.^[7]^[12]^[11]
- Freehold building cosmetics cannot be sold or traded with other players.^[9]^[1]
