Ya I want crafting, blacksmith, alchemy, enchanting, gathering, etc. You could craft a homunculus/golem, enchant, make scrolls, & magic weapons if I remember correctly just from the artificer class in 3.5
This went along with warforged since they don't heal by normal means, artificers could patch them up
In D&D 5th edition Warforged can be healed through magic as everyone else can be.
