lol...the secret to the most efficient levelling

[pjw]

How do you decon greater essences? I tried to no avail last night. I really don't have the time or patience for this method, but would be nice to know if I'm low on lessers later on.

The person that sells deconstgruction materials will also transmute greaters into 5 lessers.

Didn't even think to check with them. Thank you

PJW,

I have dubbed this The pjw Crafting Method, aka OMG-R-U-KRA-Z method of leveling crafting Hope you don't mind.

[donfilibuster]

Note he explains it is efficient as in minimum resources, which would be essences no time spent.

Obviously going for the least xp at a time is nowhere near efficient.

But if you have trouble getting essences, then yeah, try this and get it done for cheap.

Remember to rest every 20 minutes to avoid your carpal tunnel, eye sore, cramps and all.

I took Wednesday off and taking most of today off and break every two hours....

So why am I doing this method? Because even with 4 mil banked plat to spend it would not get as far as I have if I did this the normal way.

Also, I did the normal way to 73 on Lamannia and wanted to do something different this time.

lol. np.

I just hope that something further is done about the exponential resource requirements!

edit: or at least reduce the XP decay rates at the higher levels where there are so few recipes.

That's a lot of @#%@#ing clicking...wow. I really want the crafting level for greater banes, but I'm not quite that dedicated.

[jcTharin]

That is beyond my clicking ability. i think i will wait for turbine to nerf the grind before try that.

right now im leveling up a new fighter and leveling up purely from what her finds to see how well it will work for a new guy.

[Arlathen]

Your all insane!

INSANE I TELL YOU!

*chuckles uncontrollably*

Now, where are my fluffy pink slippers and doctors over-coat?? Hmm...

[Marten]

Well I finally did it, you can read and post here.

for everyone saying that is too much clicking, remember this is the unorthodox method of crafting requiring minimum resources. If you get your essences from chests, end rewards, and the auction house you can get to high levels of crafting with less shards crafted.

I am up to about 35 in each school, only crafted about 250 shards in each school. Also look at lithic he is up to 50/50/50 and has only crafted a little over 870 shards crafted as mentioned above

This has been said on this thread so many times, and people will continue to ignore it. They just want an excuse to say 'omg this is too hard, I won't do it', and try to get Turbine to implement more of an easy button than it already is.

A very sincere Thank You for doing this. It will save me a lot of trouble. I had no idea. I thought it might take 1k or 2k times. Now knowing that I have to do this 22,288 times to get to level 70, no way am I going to even begin to craft. What a waste of time! At first I thought this could be fun. But to get to level will take many, many very boring hours, days, weeks, forget it. I already have a boring job for which I at least get paid. Again, thanks for the info. You saved me a lot of time. +1 to you.

Im gessing that if you TR, you gets ta doit all over again, \o/.

The Devs are on record stating that crafting EXP would be kept through a TR.

For the time being.

Since before it went live on lam. With zero statements to contraindicate it being intended to remain as such.

This title reminds me of the News Radio episode where billionaire Jimmy James reveals all the Secrets of Management to Lisa in a weird, cabalistic ceremony. Srs for the random

[DnD3]

Nice to know I wasnt the only one doing it the slow way, and oh boy does it suck!

Good news is that I can craft everything i need now, bad news is well probably have to regrind again in the next update or two when they add 75-100 =(

And are the silver HBofGLOB really that much better than min2? I swear on my rogue It seems that i kill faster with min2

It's too much clicking. It takes too long. It's a horrible, boring grind. The crafting is neither funny nor fun.
