WoTG & SE & Crafting &... - Final Fantasy XI :: Dreams in Vana'diel :: Community

Hello..

does anyone know when WoTG EU will be available to purchased from SE? I mean is there time line or a plan SE is doing to sell registration codes?

or its just random and would be stupid to wait

?
I can only hope

another question about crafting..
I think i'm going to level every craft to 60 first for my main then focus on what I like the most to 100 ..is this a good plan or should I pick up one to 100 and then level sup craft for that?

my first love was alchemy and I always pick this in any game but man..the future is so dark, even the craft selling in AH looked....not promising

...
or maybe I'm just exaggerating

You can do your crafting planning however you want to but you won't really see any real profits until you finally get one of them to 90+.

Flanteus · 04-26-2008, 08:08 PM

so its not a good plan

and I have to decide my main craft ..now..

Nuriko · 04-26-2008, 09:26 PM

You don't really need to do ANY craft ... but you're probably better off going all-out for one craft when you do. There's also a neat trick for some of the crafts called break-synthing, for it you NEED some crafts to not be too high. Feel free to take crafts to 10 or 20 to get a feel for it, though...

Feenicks · 04-27-2008, 12:03 AM

Well actually I should probably revise my statement. You *can* make decent profits from crafting at 60ish but you need to be suave with the fluctuations of prices at the AH. At 90-100 you can rely on HQs to turn a profit but you can still make a profit at 60 if you can identify slumps in demand, abundance of materials etc and exploit them.

wait min! glad you said this , becuz I read somewhere a discussion about crafting and someone mentioned that its not good to level to X skill if you want blah blah..and I was so worried, but I forgot about it until you mentioned it

so what the hell is breaking-Synthing!? and why do I NEED to be at certain level?

but yeah I already level-ed smithing to 20 and Goldsmithing to 9 (for mining purposes) and some other craft 2-3..and I love it! actually I'm a crafting whore

and usually doing it for fun not just absolute profit

I understood what you did say, I had to say what I said to get more info out of you

..well, I know if I'm aiming for profit I should just pick a craft to 100 but 2 things stopping me, first which craft is "more" worth it than the other? thats no one can answer and I dont really want an answer for it but I was wondering isnt Goldsmith the king of all craft in term of profit? or things changed?
the correct question might be whats the worst craft in term of profit? so I can avoid .

the 2nd thing I dont aim 100% for profit but I dont want to completely ignore it ofc ..thats why I thought if I level-ed every craft to 60 I might get a better idea of what should I continue to 100, and "MAD" profiting can wait

...

pardon my bad english..

Given you love crafting just for its own sake, why not have every craft at 60 as a goal? It's more work than most would be able to stomach, but if that's what you love to do, just figure out where your gil is coming from to fund the learning process and go!

Once you choose what you're bringing to 100, you'd even be guaranteed to have any obscure sub-craft a person might need, which in itself could lead to long-term profit as you make things few others can. -- Pteryx

Hello again!

I've been enjoying the game very much , especially after finding a good place to farm goods. I have been leveling my crafts also and I enjoy it much more than playing the actual game

, my highest level is PUP 42 and my craft skills are:
Woodworking - 30
good craft and mostly easy...if just there was a 2nd guild shop

Smithing - 25
the hardest craft to level and it seems the pointless too but its needed somehow a lot by other crafts..
Goldsmithing - 25
I found GS much easier to level than Smithing I wonder why ..haha
seems ok craft..
Clothcraft - 1
LeatherCraft - 0
BoneCraft - 8
Alchemy - 2
Cooking - 34
the easiest craft so far..
the goul is to level every craft to 60..

now the problem is I still cant figure out what to take to 100 I'm so afraid I might end up with useless craft,and I cant really decide

if I'm going for a profitable craft I might find better one and if I liked one I might like another more and so on..not to mention the state of my server, its an old one (Ragnarok) I've been studying FFXIAH for weeks now and its seems every craft is just worse than the other cant find a single good craft with a steady profit of +20k and (very fast ) sells, I'm totally ignoring the the high end craft materials cuz i'm not a fan of (luck based money making) I want a steady and good income and i've decided 20k per AH slot is good enough..thats the profitable side.

crafts I enjoyed or looking into it are:
woodworking - seems fun and it helped me when I was leveling it
cooking - I'm fascinated by "making my own stuff" and who doesn't need food?
cloth crafting - looking good and easy but I feel its kinda weak..dunno whats that mean lol..
Alchemy - my first love but man the good items are just few and mostly is far better as sub craft..not very promising

there is also an issue whether to level a craft on my main or a mule

, I must decide now so I can start earning guild points, help
