Expert crafting for profit?

daeria · 11-03-2009, 08:48 AM

Hey,

this is a question to all the guys out there, that finally got the expert skill. Are you going to make/making profit? I barely see buyers out there for the expert weapons, due they are hard to craft and harder to sell.

Did some Expert Adamantium Polearms, Daggers and Swords (best choice might be the polearm) and Expert Durable Adamantium Sword.

Either the players don't know the market (server is really expensive) or they don't know how good those weapons in comparison to others really are.

What are you doing? I'm thinking about just crafting for myself by now ;o

the best way to make money is to offer to upgrade people's worthy noble adamantium *X* for a small fee + cost of mats. just view detail on eveyone you see and check their weapons to see if they fit the bill. for orichalcum it will suck since most people won't make those weapons unless they have intent to get it upgraded, since orichalcum weapons take so much effort and supplies to get.

remember, from lv 400 you can go to tigraki workshop and BUY BALAUR REFINING RECIPIES which lets you refine balaur mats for exp. it doesn't have to be a billion dollar pain in your *** to get to 449. just remember that processing balaur scales, skin, and horns will (or should) level you up.

the weapons are soul bound on equip so doing upgrades for people would not work

What I might start doing if I get the right recipes is to making the base critted weapons and selling them. Hopefully, buyers will know what they're for and buy them up. Then on my server forum I'll post that I'm doing cheap upgrades for the popular weapons and hopefully get people to pay for me to upgrade their bought weapon.

I tried to get a weapon upgraded myself when our legion weaponsmith went on vacation, but the first person I got ahold of wanted to charge 900k to make the weapon, and 4 mil if it critted. Kind of a bum deal imo especially when I got all the mats for the base and upgraded weapon. So the plan is to undercut like mad since I know ppl in my position are far more willing to pay less than more and they will tell their friends.

extracting enchantment stones on the non crits is the only thing I can think of to do with them unless they vendor for more than the stones sell for... more number crunching to do
