Day 5: In this one i wanna compare two crafting methods being black dragonhide shields and green dragonhide shields aswell as showing how good boosts can actually be.
Theres a couple boosts u should use here is everything usefull when crafting:
XP boosts:
- Clan avatar: 6% BXP
- Portable crafter: 10% BXP
- Artisans outfit: 6% BXP
Boosts that save GP:
- Portable crafter: 10%
- Scroll of dexterity: 6.25% (green dhide) 2.5% (black dhide)
- Modified artisan bandana: 1.25%
If only using a portable which most people do:
Black shields: 8.33GP/XP and 605KXP/h
Green shields: 5.3GP/XP and 435KXP/h
However if using all of the listed boosts:
Black shields: 6.26GP/XP and 665Kxp/h
Green shields: 2.89GP/XP and 480Kxp/h
Now for a better comparison lets say u want to get 10M crafting xp by only using a portable crafter:
Black shields would take you 16.5 hours and cost 83.33M
Green shields would take you 23 hours and cost you 53M
Meaning if you can make a consistent 5Mgp/h black shields would be worth doing over green shields.
However with ALL listed boosts 10M crafting xp would look like this:
Black shields would take you 15 hours and cost 62.6M
Green shields would take you 21 hours and cost you 28.9M
Meaning black shields would only be worth it if u can make about 6Mgp/h consistently
Personally i train with green shields since i like crafter more than making money. So its up to you what you craft.
Note: The 10% pulse core effect is usually always active in a populated portables world however i did not include this to the calculations.
Note 2: These rates are considering u craft 1600 shields/hour which can be done easily as u can do upto 1800 if ur tryharding.
ALTERNATIVE METHOD (for 99): Make jewellery untill u reach level 74 crafting this is often profit depending on what u make ruby rings are good profit. Once u reach 74 crafting u can make dragonstone bracelets all the way to 99 crafting this method is about 200Kxp/hour and will make you about 100M gp from levels 74 - 99.
This took a while to make as accurate as possible and i hope it helps atleast one of you, if you have any questions feel free to ask
