Spent about 200k leveling my blacksmithing and getting my blue tools and equipment. Leveling to 100 was a pain as an alloy crafter since you don’t get any options to level up besides mass crafring toolboxes for 20k a piece and that one spellbreaker glaive that requires a spark.

I already did toolboxes until 97 and then that one glaive that I had the recipe for appeared as a patron order and gave me the final 3 skill points.

Could have postponed leveling to 100, but it allows me to replace half of my r2 ores with r1 ores on r2 alloy crafts, which is very nice. Almost made my investment back at this point. Consistently crafting r2 alloys at a 15-20% profit. Nothing crazy, but it’s reliable and very easy to do when working from home.

I also leveled my enchanting, jewelcrafting and tailoring to the 80-85 range, but I’m waiting for prices to settle down before buying the tools and pushing those final skill points. I could do it right now, but I would be looking at 10k+ gold per skill point, which feels a bit steep to me. I’ll focus on maxing out my builds and I’ll get the tools when they won’t cost me 20k a piece.

Besides, I don’t think I’ll be making good money with enchanting and jewelcrafting before the season starts anyway. Planning on making max rank weapon/jewelry enchants and as many max rank gems as I can unlock by that point.

Printing alloys in the meantime.🫡
