  • This where it gets hard?.....Help?

    Last night I made a run of 100 white ceramic bands.
    This put my pottery at (229). My goal is to do what I need to do to get it to (242).

    This is my intention. Tell me if there is an easier/cheaper way to get there..PLEASE!

    White Ceramic Bands (231)
    Crucible of Escape (236)
    Imbued Idol (242) *I worship Tunare so it would be emeralds. Finding friends to imbue cheaper gems is an option, but a painful one.

    Do you guys have ANY suggestions?

    I assume you mean the "new" Golden Idols.

    The old imbued idols can be cheaper to make, but they have zero resale value so you won't get any of your investment back.

    Imbued gem
    Vial of clear mana
    Large block of magic clay
    Idol sketch
    Sculpting tools

    You need mana vials and thus an enchanter but then you need more expensive mana vials for your golden idols so that doesn't really make a difference. Plus you don't have to make all that celestial essence.

    Plains pebbles will get you to 242, emeralds to 250. On Xev, imbued pebbles are pretty common in the bazaar in the 5-10pp range, which is cheaper than buying and imbuing your own emeralds.

      I did star ruby steins, it requires more cash up front, but they sell really well (not only as PotC gifts, but as caster twink and resist gear). If you've got the money to power your way to 242, it's costing me 3-4k per point, or the patience to sell off your steins before continuing, I definitely recommend it.

        Even cheaper then Plains Pebbles are Imbued Star Rose Quartz.


        Imbued by Human Clerics of Erollsi Marr. Cost 4-5g each.

        Find, or PL to 29, a human cleric. And then imbue away.

          Getting from 225-242

          I feel your pain - I had to do 60 star ruby steins and 50 crucibles to get from 225 to 226 and after that I've pretty much given up on both ... except for the occasional run of steins for my trader in bazaar.

          I agree - get someone to imbue star rose quartz (Emarr) or Amber (CT) and just crank on the imbued idols. Personally I tried for a week and didnt find a single Erollisi Mar cleric on Rodcet Nife who was high enough level .... every night "/who all human cleric" and sent tells to them all "who do you worship". So anyway my pottery is on hold while I plevel my Emarr cleric who is now lvl 12...

            I started making Golden Idols of Tunare at about 188, during the PotC craze, and found that even then I had fair success. I seemed to succeed on them a good deal more than the trivial relative to my skill level would have suggested.

            Further, there's still somewhat of a market for these, at least on my server. I'd start including them in your mix and plan on selling them at your current level. (I don't think you'll find it easy to sell loads and loads, so they may not be a good focus for all your skill ups.)

            Also, by your level, I'd take a look at the market for soulstones, faithstones, and spiritstones, and add a few of those to your inventory for sales. With a geerlock, you should have reasonably success rates, so they may be worth making if they sell reasonably well on your server.
