Are they easy enough that I can do them without PDT axes? Something along the lines of, "Call Falcorr, tell him to fight, go make a sandwich?"

I soloed BST to 75 my first time so I kind of know what I'm doing, but I haven't bothered to make PDT Axes or really do anything on the job beside test stuff in a long time.

Between Leather and Smithing which would be cheaper to level?

I actually fought them while making PDT axes. Aggroed by mistake the first time, but yeah bring some food, Falcor and just reward as needed. I didn't use ready at all in fear of lvling them up.

I see that you are in shiva, so atm w/ our current prices LC is definetly cheaper than Smithing, past 100 smithing, the very few recipes that you can skill up, 2-3 ppl are buying all Tohkcha ore overpriced and undercutting most of the end products. This could be true for LC (haven't payed that much attention) but at least each synthesis is about 150k per try, vs 480k for Smithing w/ Thokcha, not to mention past 104~ the only options for smithing (as of now, will probably chance with future updates) will be the hexed gear (Tenryu) pieces that most ppl won't buy/want to get.

P.S. might want to gauge what you want the craft for too, I'm not sure LC has anything good to sell atm, outside -1 hexed gear and Phos +1. Smithing still has some armada/valkyrie stuffs, but that's pretty much it, unless you like making ingots and reselling for a slight profit (but the same could be said about LC's hides to leather etc)

now that the craft cap is 110, can i take a craft at 80 w/o deleveling my current lvl 100? (since i never plan on taking ww to 110 anyway)

**Fereydoon** · 2012-07-16 00:36

70 is the cap for subcrafts, can't see why you can't now.

leather by far.

I'm looking for opinion's on the order in which GP items should be obtained? Should I start with the equipment or save until I can purchase the more expensive items? Any input would be appreciated!

**dasva** · 2012-07-17 09:02

I'd get stall first. 5 skill for only 15k gp yes please. After that depends on your craft and guild. For alot you would get equipment and then say no more. Some have decent KIs though so maybe that too

**metalheadz** · 2012-07-17 10:58

5 skill? I thought it was +3 while the signboard was also in your mog? I'm doing Goldsmithing and have 70k points as of now. Not sure what I should spend my points on.

**Byrthnoth** · 2012-07-17 11:00

It's +5 solo now.

**metalheadz** · 2012-07-17 11:15

oh wow.... I tried looking up all the info on what piece gives what skill but so many conflicting reports just confused me so I gave up. Can anyone link me to accurate information with regards to what piece gives what +skill amount? Thanx

*Goldsmithing is my craft

**metalheadz** · 2012-07-17 11:45

Thanks for the link. Last question I swear! ~ Is there a point in getting the Fool's Gold/ Gemscope and Goldsmiths' Sign? If I read it correctly it seems they wont stack with stall? So.... body+head+stall+adv = max (10+skill)?

**Byrthnoth** · 2012-07-17 12:17

At the moment, there is not.

**dasva** · 2012-07-17 18:24

Other than making me bang my head because I got all that before stall came out?

**Byrthnoth** · 2012-07-17 18:57

Next patch, SE could make it so the stall only gives +5 if you have the other two furnitures too. Then I'd be SOL and back to 106 skill while you'd still be okay!

I need to get that damned signboard, but Alchemy GP makes me /wrist.

**dasva** · 2012-07-17 19:42

Well not really since I'm gold and it's pretty much impossible to get past lvl 105 (104-105 is pretty rediuclous to get to last I checked). Plus no skill torque so while you would still have at least 116 skill I only 114 lol

**Byrthnoth** · 2012-07-17 19:48

Well, I'd lose a hundred million gil worth of levels and essentially all the potential to profit off of my craft and you'd not lose anything.

**dasva** · 2012-07-17 20:54

True. Though my bonecraft mule gets sad
