Boosters

XP

The following things can be used to increase the amount of Crafting XP received.

Action Time

The following things can be used to reduce the amount of time per action in Crafting.

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.

Early Training

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 Gold Bars and gems on hand may choose to mix them in to speed things up slightly.

Levels XP Needed Item XP/Item Profit/Item Count Total Profit Time
1-7 650 Leather Gloves 13 -25GP 50 -1,250GP 2 minutes, 30.00 seconds
7-9 319 Leather Boots 16 -25GP 20 -500GP 1 minute
9-11 389 Leather Cowl 18 -25GP 22 -550GP 1 minute, 6.00 seconds
11-14 749 Leather Vambraces 22 -25GP 35 -875GP 1 minute, 45.00 seconds
14-18 1,416 Leather Body 25 -25GP 57 -1,425GP 2 minutes, 51.00 seconds
18-57 199,731 Leather Chaps 27 -25GP 7398 -184,950GP 6 hours, 9 minutes, 54.00 seconds
Totals
1-57 203,254 7,582 -189,550GP 6 hours, 19 minutes, 6.00 seconds

Green Dragonhide

From levels 57 to 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.

Levels XP Needed Item XP/Item Count Time
57-60 70,488 Green D-hide Vambraces 50 1,410 1 hour, 10 minutes, 30.00 seconds
60-63 94,857 Green D-hide Chaps 99 959 47 minutes, 57.00 seconds
63-71 445,846 Green D-hide Body 148 3,013 2 hours, 30 minutes, 39.00 seconds
Totals
57-71 611,191 5,382 4 hours, 29 minutes, 6.00 seconds

Final Levels

After reaching level 71, players have a choice: They can continue training using Green D-hide Bodies all the way to 99 while turning a small profit or they can begin creating Blue D-hide bodies and gain slightly faster XP in exchange for losing money. There are three routes from 71 to 99:

All Green Dragonhide

Levels XP Needed Item XP/Item Count Time
71-99 12,219,986 Green D-hide Body 148 82,568 2 days, 20 hours, 48 minutes, 24.00 seconds

All Blue Dragonhide

Levels XP Needed Item XP/Item Profit/Item Count Total Profit Time
71-99 12,219,986 Blue D-hide Body 168 -150GP 72,739 -10,910,850GP 2 days, 12 hours, 36 minutes, 57.00 seconds

Totals
71-99 12,219,986 65,749 -28,406,250GP 2 days, 6 hours, 47 minutes, 27.00 seconds

Comparisons

Using Green Dragonhide all the way to level 99 takes 8 hours, 11 minutes, 27.00 seconds longer than swapping to Blue Dragonhide.

Using Blue Dragonhide all the way to level 99 takes 5 hours, 49 minutes, 30.00 seconds longer than swapping to Red Dragonhide.
