BONZZ'S GUIDE TO

MASTERING TRADESKILLS

(0 to 300)

UPDATE: With the advent of Personas, it is now possible to complete all tradeskills on the same character!

Below are suggestions on the cheapest, easiest and/or best way that I found in mastering trade skills!

This guide is for getting your skill(s) from 0 to 300 and is not concerned with learning recipes, which a a requirement for getting from 301 to 350 (that process is outlined here).

Below are notes about tradeskills, in general, and processes for maximizing them!

These suggestions are not intended to make you money, but to help you skill up!

In fact, expect to spend major coin over and lose money!

Thus, these recipes are ones where items are mostly store bought, are reasonably easy or cheap to obtain from other players and/or are not too difficult to farm at certain levels (the less foraging, the better).

If you have the ability to forage and solo farm (via alts and boxes) -- then obviously there are potentially better options open for you, and this guide may not be the best one to follow.

NOTE: "UPDATED" means a skill path has been updated for later expansions, through Empires of Kunark. After all, platinum is far less of a concern now, than it was back in the day; plus, older trade skill materials are generally far less costly in Bazaar (if they are even listed in Bazaar, anymore).

While some of the high end tradeskills are cumbersome, many of the items made can and do sell in Bazaar (even if at low profit), particularly certain stat food and drink items.

This one involves sub-combines and farming.

Take a Fishing Pole and some Bait, then fish up the Saltwater Crab Meat  and/or Saltwater Tuna (Natimbi). It comes in various weights that you will have to break down into 1 lb. Saltwater Crab or Tuna (combine them in a Mixing Bowl). Then make them into Saltwater Crab (or Tuna) Meat (combine them again, in a Mixing Bowl).

As a note, take a few empty bags with you, as you will get a lot of Crab & Tuna in a short time.

Now you will need to make the Beer-Based Batter (Brewing), using items (Cup of Flour, Cup of Sugar, Ground Pepper, Red Wine, Short Beer & Vinegar) sold by the brewing and/or baking vendors.

Next, make the Beer-Battered Crab (Meat and Batter in a Mixing Bowl).

Lastly, make the Beer-Battered Crab (or Tuna) Rolls (Beer-Battered Crab (or Tuna) Meat with a Bat Wing in a Mixing Bowl).

You also need them to make Clump of Dough (Bottle of Milk, Cup of Flour and most any egg in a Mixing Bowl).

Eggs drop off most "reptile" type MOB's in many zones, so farm them up wherever you please. Or buy them.

If you have plenty of Crab & Tuna left over from above, great! If not, time to do more fishing!

You will also need Vegetables. If you don't have any, you can make them using items sold by the Baking vendor (Carrot, Turnip & Lettuce) in a Mixing Bowl.

When ready, as above, make the crab (and tuna) into into Beer-Battered Crab (or Tuna) Meat.

Then use the Beer-Battered Meat, a Clump of Dough, (2) Egg Batter and Vegetables to make the souffle (in an Oven)!

Brell's Bounty are ground spawns (they look like white mushrooms). They can also be foraged and they also drop from MOB's (mostly Burynai). You will need a a few hundred of them!

Of course, you can always buy them, acquire them from other players or, perhaps you have some stockpiled!

Once ready, head to Plane of Knowledge. As above, you will need more Beer-Based Batter.

Next, you need to make the Brell's Bounty into Prepared Brell's Bounty (Brell's Bounty and a Water Flask in a Mixing Bowl)

Now make the Beer-Battered Brell's Bounty (Beer-Based Batter & Prepared Brell's Bounty in a Mixing Bowl).

Next, buy some Jug of Sauces and make the Jerky (Oven)!

Now it gets more expensive and/or time consuming, but at least options are available.

First off, go to the tradeskill book vendors by up by the library in the Plane of Knowledge. Buy and scribe all of the books/scrolls related to smithing, to avoid any possible concerns later, from not being able to do combines due to having never done this.

From 55 all the way to 300, you can make various types of Chain Bracer Templates. The type you make is determined by the type of ore you use, and the related type of coal you need. The only thing that is not vendor sold, are the Ores.

The ores can be acquired from other players, purchased in Bazaar, from vendor diving and/or farmed up.

Because of the difficulty in obtaining some ores in quantity, having options is the best idea!

Using the below chart, seek out ores that are above your current trivial and then do the related combine.

The recipe is always the same, for any type ore, with the exception of the coal type required. The chart below lists the ore, the trivial and the coal type needed. The lower the ore on the chart, the cheaper the vendor components will be.

  20     Tin Ore / Crude Coal

  40     Iron Ore / Natural Coal

  66     Silvril Ore / Sulfurous Coal

  90     Thalium Ore / Brown Coal

This will require a lot of time, as there are only so many spawn spots and they take a little time to respawn -- but it is a real cheap way to 300.

The Treant Branches (used to make the staff) can be foraged -- and also a ground spawn -- in Elddar Forest and the Ruins of Takish Hiz. They can also be most easily farmed in Goru'kar Mesa (treants). Otherwise you will have to buy these from other players.

The Spiderling Silk (used two at a time to make Silk Thread) is may be best farmed in Nektulos Forest.

The only other item you need is sold in the Plane of Knowledge as noted (Shimmering Steel Thread).

You will also need two Battle Bow Cams per combine. These are made by tinkerers, using Grease, Battle Bolts and Battle Cams. The Battle Bolts & Cams are made via Smithing using File, Cam parts Mold and either a Sundered Blade, a Sundered Blades Shards or a Broken Battle Blade (these can be found by foraging or as a drop in the Field of Scale or The Devastation).

JEWELRY MAKING

AKA: Jewelry

DEVICES: Jeweler's Kit; Reinforced Jeweler's Kit

TOOLS AND RELATED ITEMS: Collapsible Jewelry Kit, Gem Cutter, Geerlok Gem Setter, Etching Tools, Reinforced Jewelry Kit, Jeweler's Glass, Marquis Cut Tool (or any other name it can be changed into)...

NOTES: This skill is expensive, but not as expensive as you may believe. Attaining a skill of 274 can be done with all store bought, non-enchanted and non-imbued items. After that, however, it does gets more complicated.

The "basic" method to follow is not fully listed below, as it would take up way too much space. However, the basic system is to start with Silver Bars then Electrum Bars, then Gold Bars and then Platinum Bars (all store bought). With each bar, start with the cheapest gem and them move up to the next cheapest gem as it becomes trivial (usually the Trivial order is something like Turquoise, Lapis Lazuli, Malachite, Hematite, Cat's Eye Agate, Bloodstone, Onyx, Jasper, Carnelian, Star Rose Quartz, Amber, Wolf's Eye Agate, Jade, Pearl, Topaz, Peridot, Emerald, Opal, Amethyst, Fire Opal, Star Ruby, Fire Emerald, Sapphire, Ruby, Jacinth, Diamond...). Simply go up on the gem until you max out on merchant sold gems, or until you feel it is too expensive. At that point, move up on the metal and start again (be wary, though, as many of the lower gems will all ready be trivial with the new metal).

The Square Cut Tool is sold by most any Jewelry vendor. If you don't see it, just buy any shape of cutting tool they offer, and simply combine it in a Jewelry kit over and over until it becomes a Square Cutting Tool.

You will have to make or buy (from another player) a Jeweler's Glass. If you make it, just know that it may take many combines on one step until you succeed (just keep redoing the combine).

The Uncut Black Sapphire is a random drop in many zones. They are usually not that expensive in Bazaar and can often be found cheap on Vendors (where players sold them to the Vendor).

HOWEVER -- the above is the cheaper option. If you can not find enough Uncut Black Sapphires, there is a more expensive item you can make... a Velium Blue Diamond Bracelet. You can buy Velium Bars in Thurgadin and Blue Diamonds are a common drop in many zones, but are most easily found and bought from Vendors (players sell them to Vendors in large numbers, usually).

POTTERY

DEVICES: Pottery Wheel, Kiln

TOOLS AND RELATED ITEMS: Sculpting Tools...

NOTES: This skill is pretty cheap and easy to a level of 199. After that it gets progressively more expensive and difficult. Many unfired items will not sell back to vendors, which adds to the cost. Buying an additional item(s) and to "fire" the items into a final product is normally not worth the effort or added expense.

Lastly, you will require the help of other players (Enchanters) to enchant Large Blocks of Clay for you (or buy them in Bazaar).

From here on out you will become very reliant on others to imbue, enchant or cast up items for you. You can sometimes buy these items in Bazaar.

Amber is the cheapest of the gems to choose from. However, Peridots and Jades (making variant Idols) can get you to this same level with the same basic recipe (but for the gem part).

The hard part here (with Amber) is finding a Cazic Thule following Shaman or Cleric to imbue them for you.

The Jades are imbued by Shamans who follow Rallos Zek, while the Peridots are imbued by Clerics who follow Bristlebane.

Again, you need an Enchanter to enchant Large Blocks of Clay for you.

Lastly, you also need an Enchanter (using a Poison Vial and an Emerald) to cast up Vials of Clear Mana for you.

Everything is store bought, otherwise.

Now it gets more expensive and/or time consuming, but at least options are available.

First off, go to the tradeskill book vendors by up by the library in the Plane of Knowledge. Buy and scribe all of the books/scrolls related to tailoring, to avoid any possible concerns later, from not being able to do combines due to having never done this.

From 55 all the way to 300, you can make various types of Silk Wristband Templates. The type you make is determined by the type of silk you use, and the related type of filament you also need. The only thing that is not vendor sold, are the Silks.

The silks can be acquired from other players, purchased in Bazaar, from vendor diving and/or farmed up.

Because of the difficulty in obtaining some silks in quantity, having options is the best idea!

Using the below chart, seek out silks that are above your current trivial and then do the related combine.

The recipe is always the same, for any type silk, with the exception of the filament type required. The chart below lists the silk, the trivial and the filament type needed. The lower the silk on the chart, the cheaper the vendor components will be.

         20     Coarse Silk / Crude Filament

      40     Rough Silk / Plain Filament
