==Boosts==
==Acquiring Materials==
There are several items you can use to increase the rate at which you train the Crafting skill:
Although it is possible to receive {{ItemIcon|Leather}} and {{ItemIcon|Green Dragonhide|Dragonhides}} from fighting various [[Monsters]], it is much faster to buy them from the {{Icon|Shop}}. {{ItemIcon|Leather}} can be purchased directly from the {{Icon|Shop}} for {{GP|100}} per piece, and {{ItemIcon|Green Dragonhide|Dragonhides}} can be purchased for an amount of GP and {{ItemIcon|Leather}} depending on the tier. This guide will assume you are purchasing all materials from the store as gathering them via combat will take substantially longer than it would to make the money through other means.
 
Note that the amount of dragonhides required can be reduced by using the {{ItemIcon|Monkey}} & {{ItemIcon|Pig}} [[synergy]], or alternatively the {{ItemIcon|Monkey}} & {{ItemIcon|Crow}} synergy grants +20% chance to double any leather or dragonhide items produced. Both of these synergies effectively increase the profitability of the outlined levelling strategy.

==Fastest Experience==
===Levels 1-20/60: Leather Armour===
From {{SkillReq|Crafting|1 to 60}}, players should make the highest-level {{ItemIcon|Leather}} item available. Jewellery materials cannot be feasibly acquired in large enough quantities to offer a real alternative, although players who already have {{ItemIcon|Gold Bar|Gold Bars}} and gems on hand may choose to mix them in to speed things up slightly. Once you reach {{SkillReq|Crafting|18}}, you should craft {{ItemIcon|Leather Chaps}} all the way until {{SkillReq|Crafting|57}}. This is the most efficient craft per {{ItemIcon|Leather}}. If you have an abundance of GP or {{ItemIcon|Leather}}, then just continue making the highest level item until {{SkillReq|Crafting|60}}.

===Levels 20-63: Gold Necklaces===
From {{SkillReq|Crafting|20 to 63}}, the fastest experience comes from crafting gold jewellery. Note that gold rings and necklaces provide the same experience rate for a given tier, but gold necklaces will sell for slightly more.

Although it is possible to receive {{ItemIcon|Leather}} and {{ItemIcon|Green Dragonhide|Dragonhides}} from fighting various [[Monsters]], it is much faster to buy them from the [[Shop]]. Leather can be purchased directly from the shop for {{GP|100}} per pieces, and Dragonhides can be purchased for an amount of GP and Leather depending on the tier. This guide will assume you are purchasing all materials from the store as gathering them via combat will take substantially longer than it would to make the money through other means.
===Levels 60/63-99: D-hide Bodies===
From {{SkillReq|Crafting|63}} to {{SkillReq|Crafting|71}}, items made out of {{ItemIcon|Green Dragonhide}} are the most efficient XP/level. Since {{ItemIcon|Green Dragonhide}} can effectively be purchased from the {{Icon|Shop}} for {{GP|200}} per piece and items made from {{ItemIcon|Green Dragonhide}} sell for an amount equal to {{GP|200}} per piece of dragonhide required, making {{ItemIcon|Green Dragonhide}} items is cost neutral as a baseline and will actually turn a small profit thanks to materials saved by the {{Icon|Mastery}}
effect.


==Early Training==
After reaching {{SkillReq|Crafting|71}}, players will be able to craft {{ItemIcon|Blue D-hide Body|Blue D-hide bodies}}. While the cost of hides required for each body is greater than the sale price of the body its self, break-even may still be achieved through the use of resource preservation and item doubling bonuses. Assuming no chance to double applies, the break-even point may be reached with a preservation bonus of at least 15% - this can be achieved with a combination of [[Crafting#Item Mastery Unlocks|item mastery bonuses]] (+0.2% per level) and other global [[Skill Boosts]]. Taking advantage of [[Crafting#Skill Boosts|Crafting specific]] and [[Skill Boosts|global]] doubling bonuses will lower the amount of preservation required to reach the break-even point.


From level 1 to level 57, players should make the best leather item they can. Jewelry materials cannot be feasibly acquired in large enough quantities to offer a real alternative, although players who already have {{ItemIcon|Gold Bar}}s and gems on hand may choose to mix them in to speed things up slightly.
From {{SkillReq|Crafting|77}} onwards, the player can create {{ItemIcon|Red D-hide Body|Red D-hide Bodies}} for a higher XP rate than the previous bodies provide. These bodies require a preservation bonus of at least 28% to avoid making a loss (assuming no chance to double applies). The exact minimal preservation bonus (in percent), taking into account doubling (<math>D</math> in percent), can be expressed as <math>\frac{300 - 8D}{11}</math>.


{|class="wikitable"
{{ItemIcon|Black Dragonhide}} cannot be bought at the store and is difficult to obtain in sufficient quantities for training Crafting, which is why {{ItemIcon|Red D-hide Body|Red D-hide Bodies}} are preferable all the way to 99.

==Green Dragonhide==
===Levels 100-120: Hardwood Armour===
 
{| class="wikitable col-1-right col-4-right col-5-center"
From levels 57 to 71, items made out of {{ItemIcon|Green Dragonhide}} are the most efficient XP/level.

==Other Methods==
===Levels 80-84: Gold Diamond Necklaces===
Crafting {{ItemIcon|Gold Diamond Necklace|Gold Diamond Necklaces}} provides the fastest experience from {{SkillReq|Crafting|80 to 84}}. '''This is an extremely expensive method''', and {{ItemIcon|Diamond|Diamonds}} should generally be saved for other craftable items such as {{ItemIcon|Diamond Luck Potion|Diamond Luck Potions}}.

==Final Levels==
===Levels 84-99: Black D-hide Bodies===
 
From {{SkillReq|Crafting|84 to 99}}, the player can return to crafting Dragonhide Bodies. The {{ItemIcon|Black D-hide Body}} provides the fastest experience rate up to {{SkillReq|Crafting|99}}, but {{ItemIcon|Black Dragonhide}} cannot be purchased from the {{Icon|Shop}}. For this reason, this method is only efficient if the player has previously farmed {{MonsterIcon|Black Dragon|Black Dragons}}.
After reaching level 71, players have a choice: They can continue training using {{ItemIcon|Green D-hide Body|Green D-hide Bodies}} all the way to 99 while turning a small profit or they can begin creating {{ItemIcon|Blue D-hide Body|Blue D-hide bodies}} and gain slightly faster XP in exchange for losing money. There are three routes from 71 to 99:

===All Blue Dragonhide===
===Levels 99-120: Red D-hide Bodies===
 
At the standard action time of 3 seconds, this would take 16d:22h:35m:24s. Total cost for {{ItemIcon|Red Dragonhide}} is {{ItemIcon|Leather|qty=2927448}} and {{GP|512303400}}. If you buy the {{ItemIcon|Leather}} from the {{Icon|Shop}} as well, then it would cost {{GP|805048200}} in total.

This article is about training the Crafting skill. For the skill itself, see Crafting.
This page was last updated for (v1.1.2).

Acquiring Materials

Although it is possible to receive Leather and Dragonhides from fighting various Monsters, it is much faster to buy them from the Shop. Leather can be purchased directly from the Shop for 100GP per piece, and Dragonhides can be purchased for an amount of GP and Leather depending on the tier. This guide will assume you are purchasing all materials from the store as gathering them via combat will take substantially longer than it would to make the money through other means.

Note that the amount of dragonhides required can be reduced by using the Monkey & Pig synergy, or alternatively the Monkey & Crow synergy grants +20% chance to double any leather or dragonhide items produced. Both of these synergies effectively increase the profitability of the outlined levelling strategy.

Fastest Experience

Levels 1-20/60: Leather Armour

From Crafting Level 1 to 60, players should make the highest-level Leather item available. Jewellery materials cannot be feasibly acquired in large enough quantities to offer a real alternative, although players who already have Gold Bars and gems on hand may choose to mix them in to speed things up slightly. Once you reach Crafting Level 18, you should craft Leather Chaps all the way until Crafting Level 57. This is the most efficient craft per Leather. If you have an abundance of GP or Leather, then just continue making the highest level item until Crafting Level 60.

Level Item XP Ingredients
1-7 Leather Gloves 13 50
7-9 Leather Boots 16 20
9-11 Leather Cowl 18 22
11-14 Leather Vambraces 22 35
14-18 Leather Body 25 57
18-28 Leather Chaps 27 271
28-33 Hard Leather Boots 32 696
33-39 Hard Leather Cowl 36 1,284
39-44 Hard Leather Vambraces 44 1,503
44-50 Hard Leather Body 50 2,742
50-60 Hard Leather Chaps 54 9,579
Total 16,259

Levels 20-63: Gold Necklaces

From Crafting Level 20 to 63, the fastest experience comes from crafting gold jewellery. Note that gold rings and necklaces provide the same experience rate for a given tier, but gold necklaces will sell for slightly more.

Level Item XP Ingredients
20-25 Gold Sapphire Necklace 45 75 , 75
25-50 Gold Ruby Necklace 60 1,159 , 1,159
50-63 Gold Emerald Necklace 130 2,056 , 2,056

Levels 60/63-99: D-hide Bodies

From Crafting Level 63 to Crafting Level 71, items made out of Green Dragonhide are the most efficient XP/level. Since Green Dragonhide can effectively be purchased from the Shop for 200GP per piece and items made from Green Dragonhide sell for an amount equal to 200GP per piece of dragonhide required, making Green Dragonhide items is cost neutral as a baseline and will actually turn a small profit thanks to materials saved by the Mastery effect.

After reaching Crafting Level 71, players will be able to craft Blue D-hide bodies. While the cost of hides required for each body is greater than the sale price of the body its self, break-even may still be achieved through the use of resource preservation and item doubling bonuses. Assuming no chance to double applies, the break-even point may be reached with a preservation bonus of at least 15% - this can be achieved with a combination of item mastery bonuses (+0.2% per level) and other global Skill Boosts. Taking advantage of Crafting specific and global doubling bonuses will lower the amount of preservation required to reach the break-even point.

From Crafting Level 77 onwards, the player can create Red D-hide Bodies for a higher XP rate than the previous bodies provide. These bodies require a preservation bonus of at least 28% to avoid making a loss (assuming no chance to double applies). The exact minimal preservation bonus (in percent), taking into account doubling ([math]\displaystyle{ D }[/math] in percent), can be expressed as [math]\displaystyle{ \frac{300 - 8D}{11} }[/math].

Black Dragonhide cannot be bought at the store and is difficult to obtain in sufficient quantities for training Crafting, which is why Red D-hide Bodies are preferable all the way to 99.

Other Methods

Levels 80-84: Gold Diamond Necklaces

Crafting Gold Diamond Necklaces provides the fastest experience from Crafting Level 80 to 84. This is an extremely expensive method, and Diamonds should generally be saved for other craftable items such as Diamond Luck Potions.

Levels 84-99: Black D-hide Bodies

From Crafting Level 84 to 99, the player can return to crafting Dragonhide Bodies. The Black D-hide Body provides the fastest experience rate up to Crafting Level 99, but Black Dragonhide cannot be purchased from the Shop. For this reason, this method is only efficient if the player has previously farmed Black Dragons.
