Actually it doesn't hurt that much when you fail at the white craft. As you can sell it to vendor for 450k~, won't cover the flux costs but gives something back. When you fail the green craft, that's where the bad things happend >_>

I've been told to break down the green part if it doesn't proc. Friends got 2 lvl 61 Enchantment stones which go for at least 1m on my server :D. 2m right there, that pays for pretty much 2-3 bows.

Gotta try that on my next bunch. I dismantled few of them and only got 1 lv45-50 enchant which goes for 200k :j

[Sinister100]

You realise that getting level 61 stones out of a level 50 green is super rare right? Mostly you'll get level 49-53 stones which are barely worth what the bow is worth, sometimes worth a lot less.

Oh, and I finally got past the 399 quest, total wasted in the end was 90m...

[Nuk]

finally got the double crit , it took me 34 first bow attempts and i crit it on my 7th second

Worthy Premiums are running 700,000 kinah+ (generally 800,000/900,000+) so I haven't had the funds to even attempt my first.

If anyone has tips for a level 39 almost 40 ranger on getting that much cash... please send a PM.

Well, to my knowledge you're kinda close to being the level of the mobs that drop the flux, so maybe you could team up with a healing buddy and another DPS buddy and farm some fluxes :sparkles: That's what I would do, but I'm not near Expert OR level 30 even

So far i've crafted the first bow about 20+ times, that was around 6000 asvata logs overall. I crit on 5 of those, that gave me 5 shots at crafting the final bow between me and 400+ handicraft. None of the 5 crit.

I wish I would win the crafting lottery one of these days,

I got handi max by faming FT, and by maxing Cooking at 449 first. I was able to make about 8-10 M a day combined and in the end I dumped 37.5 M into handi expert. Make sure your DP is 2000, 4000 doesnt have the same luck even though it should have more. Took me about 6 attempts per HQ, which was still a lot to me, and a lot since this was only a couple weeks into the game.

GL man and remember....DP 2000, never 4000 for crafting.

how did find this out?

[Subtle]

Why are people saying that the guy buys gold?

I have made 12million gold in the last 2 days weaponsmithing - if i really sat down, and ONLY did crafting I am sure I could make more than that. Games been out for more than a month... money is getting easier to come by as you get higher level. FFS the right book drops and you can make a QUICK and easy 10mil (although its enough for you to buy your own book but meh)

I know of people who are making STUPID money buying weapons from me - Adding +10 to it + god stone - reselling for INSANE profits... 50 mil IS a lot of money but is attainable if you do it right. (also, i know someone who has spent 45 mil on trying for expert ffs poor bugger)

Someone told him.

I expect if you told him to strip naked and run around in circles for 4 hours before crafting he would believe it.

Its a load of crap.

Got my Expert HC about 1 week ago.

failed my first green blue proc then someone put the green bow on the AH for 2 mill so i purchased that and tried again. It worked :) total spent about 6 mill \o/

50m... Buy gold much?

Seriously, gold buyers shouldnt complain in the first place.

I don't understand the mentality of people on these boards....why do you guys/gals just assume? Why must you guys/gals try to bring people down and accuse them of things you have no idea about? Does it make you feel better? Does it give meaning to your life?

So what if the OP bought gold, let him/her waste their RL cash. As you can see, it's not doing them any good.

However, what if they didn't buy the gold and actually earned it? --- Hold up! What the he|| am I saying? People can actually earn that kind of gold in game without buying it? I'm must be stupid because that's just not possible because I have troubles getting past 1mil [/sarcasm].

Let's get real people, it's not hard to earn gold in Aion. I could do it and I have to some extent, but the methods needed for some of the work is actually more work than I want to deal with. Mostly it takes playing the AH game - buy low and sell high. Or you can also gather mats and sell them (they add up real quick) and be sure to collect everything when you go out grinding and sell it all off to the vendors if the products can't fetch you anything decent on the AH.

Without even trying, I have manastones saved up in my warehouse and I could sell them out to make a quick 1-2 mil if I wanted too on the AH. I have mats stacked up that I could probably make 8-10 mil from on the AH and just in a normal grinding session for me I can pull in anywhere from 250k - 1mil (depending on drops). This is just from my SM only being level 32. I've also probably spent a good 15-20mil on items and getting my craft skill up to 399.

All in all, if I kept my gold and sold off all my crap that I've collected and never purchased anything (aside from skill books) I could be sitting on 30-40mil (depending on prices from the AH) and I'm only at level 32. However, if I never spent my gold then what good is it? It's not hard to make gold in this game, people need to stop accusing others of things they know nothing of.

And yes, in all honesty, the most gold I've had on my character at any given time is under 1.5mil. I have never gone over that number...I tend to spend my gold as fast as I earn it (mostly on getting handcrafting to 399 and skill books).

[Firestorm_Omega]

Getting Expert on anything is nuts. Why don't people just charge others for the required mat to make Expert? ;\

[tnn]

guess i was lucky.

I finish from 370 to 400 in 1 shot.

Not sure if this helps or not but my dp was at 2.5k

I had my fair share of items not procting when crafting low items. But i was very lucky. First Bow proc on the first try and second part of the quest proc on first try.

[Pitty]

16th attempt at bow, i've had 2 greens, 0 blues.

I wanna stab myself in the face.

[Nya]

25 attempts 6 greens 0 blues

[Phoenix Pinion]

I dont know if I can keep trying on this or work on another alt to get expert first on. I am just using too much money. I am kind of mad that we dont get to just make some jewelry for our quest. It would make it easier on the mats at the higher levels. For those who have gone past 10 mill just how are you get the funds for it without buying gold. I am not accussing you of gold buying or anything its just hard too see how it can be done now since most of the bots are gone. After the bots left its just too hard to sell stuff.

[Wrath]

I solo Dark Poeta for money.

I keep all the weapon flux, break down the expert one. Sell the armor flux, hot balaur heart, white, grey, green, extract blue.

[ShuGo]

20 attempts so far, 1 green, 0 blue , ridiculous
gave up (sold) 2 gold lvl 40 drops, worth 10 mil, for it to try to make it.

my prediction: in a month of 2 they realize its insane and will make it easier for the low level crafter now.
in short ones who spend so much time and effort on it now just do it for nothing.

[Oojirou]

my friend is at his 42nd attempt. 5 greens 0 blues. what a money sink. Handicrafting has like the lowest proc rate seeing how many expert crafters there are.
