Level 70 crafting worth it?

well i've got about 6m. and i hear a lot of people say that people with high level crafting are usually rich. i figured that with lvl 50 crafting that i have now, i could buy 20k cow hides and get them all into leather and make 20k coif's and i'd be at level 70 crafting ish. it'd cost me around 3m before selling the coifs to a shop or where ever i can sell 20k coifs without selling them all for 1gp each.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

these are my skills... maybe you have suggestions on something else i could make money off of by putting money into..rsskillsvt1.jpg

70 crafting definitely would be profitable especially in selling power ammys, you could buy diamonds for around 3-4k ea and then sell the power ammy for 7-8k per making an instant 4k profit. I used to merchant power ammys and they definitely sell very well

isn't buying uncut gems also a good way if you have the money?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I buy emeralds 400-500ea and then high alch the ammy to get around 750 ea.

yeah thats true, but whose gonna sell me 42000 flax... and that'd be an [wagon] load of spinning.. pardon my french -.-

 

 

 

With Miscellania, you get 1,250 Flax/day if you put the maximum number of workers on it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

That takes a little over an hour to spin into bowstrings, and you could then sell for close to 200K in profit.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So if you're not in some sick rush, you could hit 70 in about a month just wandering up to Miscellania every couple of days.

True but have you tried tanning 20k pieces of leather? I wanted to kill myself after only tanning 2k blue hides.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It's the most boring thing I've ever done and you wanna do 20k cowhides? Good luck.

Buy seaweed/soda ash, collect sand [Do hand in the sand. If you want to make this part faster, buy house tele tabs and make a house in Yanille. It will almost double the speed.] Make them into molten glass, make them into orbs. Easy exp., and you're making a profit.

Cool.

wagons replaced my french word. it starts with an A and ends with an S...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i still dont know what to do because spinning 42000 bow strings sounds pretty lame even though it will get me profit. if i do the coif thing, i could try and buy pre tanned leather and just stand right next to the bank and click for a couple days straight...

but i pardoned myself! any way..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

how was doing coifs to 80? major pain in the wagon? (i typed wagon myself this time). maybe give me some advice on what how when where you did it, and how much money went into it, and where you sold the coifs at?

 

 

 

What ~ coifs

 

 

 

Where~ Bought all my cowhides in free world in bulk 2k or more...( World 1 & 5)

 

 

 

Price ~ 100- 110 each.

 

 

 

Sold them to the Gerneral Store. How much money I spent I do not remember

 

 

 

I just knew I was buying them until I hit the magic level of 80 crafting. :)

 

 

 

Hope that helped you some.

I'm in more or less the same position as you - got 54 crafting and am aiming for 70. I'm not taking the coif route, oh, no, I'm making it more difficult for myself and doing studded chaps :) - which at least means I get my smithing up as well, plus my mining, as I'm getting all the source materials (ie coal and iron) myself (this is because I'm a cheapskate who hates paying for things I can get myself :)). I'm also making shedloads of various rings, using my stash of gems acquired through Shilo (plus gold I mine myself), and then a friend is letting me spin several thousand bowstrings for her...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm doing it this way because I think I'd lose the will to live if I had to do nothing but tan and sew, tan and sew - this way I get some variety. After trudging back and forth in AlKharid and tanning half my stash of hides (done 1k of them so far) I realised that I wasn't having fun, so decided to look for ways of making the levelling process more enjoyable - hence the above. OK, so it'll take me longer, but it'll FEEL shorter..lol!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Best of luck in your endeavours!

I got from 54-70 craft with flax and green d'hide bodies.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The flax method is good, because you make a profit; the hide method is good because its much faster xp, and you get magic xp from the alcing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I managed to buy a lot of green hides at 1.5k ea which is a good price, and I had minimal losses per hide.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

70 crafting worthwhile? I dno, I didn't do it to make profit, but since I've had 70 crafting, I've barely made any cash from it..though I haven't been trying...anyway GL!
