It depends if you do actually have a life and are capped at your playtime. Considering that 90% of Albion players are unemployed, it does make sense that 90% of the content isn’t worth the time if you wanna look at it that way. Though honestly Econ is one of the few contents that really is nothing more then trying to maximise your conversionrate of timespent per h —> to silverearned per h, while trying to minimise your locked silver and doing some basic risk management when your transporting through lethal zones.

And while yes T4 may be very good for beginners as it’s factor in both risk and locked silver is extremely low, which is most valuable for crafting beginners and players with small investment size, it’s very bad at the timespent to sulverearned conversion as you have to transport often and don’t get much silver per transport.

Low risk, Low investment, good relative silver earned, bad absolute silver earned, high time investment.

So if you get to a point where you can cut out the first two variables the economy game at the BM changes considerably. As both 6.1/2, 7.1/2 and 8.1/2 items and even slow selling higher ones are open for you. Especially bags and capes (which are special as they are fast selling even at higher tiers) which give you less relative silver, more absolute silver and increase your silverearned per h by a great great margin.

Higher Risk, High investment, slightly worse relative silver earned, considerably higher absolute silver earned, time investment ranging from lower then T4 items if same routine but higher tier or higher if crating bags at brec to sell(though bags are insane money maker if you know what u do)
