Also Diablo II - You put things in the magic box and click the
Transmute button to make new things.  Certain "craftables" can only
be made on specific days of the month.  On days 1 through 7, the
recipe make X, on days 8 through 14 the same recipe makes Y, etc.
So making a complete set might take a month.
