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 100 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	-25	50	-1,250	2 minutes, 30.00 seconds
7-9	319	Leather Boots	16	-25	20	-500	1 minute
9-11	389	Leather Cowl	18	-25	22	-550	1 minute, 6.00 seconds
11-14	749	Leather Vambraces	22	-25	35	-875	1 minute, 45.00 seconds
14-18	1,416	Leather Body	25	-25	57	-1,425	2 minutes, 51.00 seconds
18-57	199,731	Leather Chaps	27	-25	7398	-184,950	6 hours, 9 minutes, 54.00 seconds
Totals
1-57	203,254				7,582	-189,550	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 200 per piece and items made from Green Dragonhide sell for an amount equal to 200 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	-150	72,739	-10,910,850	2 days, 12 hours, 36 minutes, 57.00 seconds

Blue Dragonhide into Red Dragonhide

Levels	XP Needed	Item	XP/Item	Profit/Item	Count	Total Profit	Time
71-77	661,136	Blue D-hide Body	168	-150	3,936	-590,400	3 hours, 16 minutes, 48.00 seconds
77-99	11,558,850	Red D-hide Body	187	-450	61,813	-27,815,850	2 days, 3 hours, 30 minutes, 39.00 seconds
Totals
71-99	12,219,986				65,749	-28,406,250	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.
