A question for human smiths

[Akassha]

I am a 250 high elf smith. I keep my trader stocked with a full set of both blessed full mithril and full mithril, minus the cloaks.

Now I have a GM human smith as well, and I was hoping for some input from the human smiths here. I know I probably want a full set of fierce heraldic on the trader, but other than that what are your regular sellers?

I know for some of the items (fetid, hateful) I'm probably better waiting for orders. But, I'm curious to know which of the others are worth keeping in stock regularly.

Assuming components and cash aren't an issue, what items do you recommend I keep stocked on the trader?

Thanks ahead of time for your input.

The number one piece I have sold throughout the last few months are bracers. I'm guessing because they have the most bang for the buck. I have only made a couple belts, cloaks and visors over time...almost entirely when completing full suits.

As for diety, fierce heraldic makes up most of my orders, with Luminant a distant second.

Bracers are a big seller, as are Boots. I almost always recommend Cultural Boots to any Plate-class looking for Upgrades.

It's hard to find Vambraces for Paladins past Crystal Chitin Armplates, but most don't want to give up the +5 Sta for the extra AC.

Greaves & BPs are usually special order items, due to cost.

Masks... other than Fierce Heraldic for Rallos Followers, there are too many good & cheap masks to worry much about making these, IMHO... same with Collars.

Belts are often where people have Haste... though the Cultural Belts are nice for Clerics. Also, for some reason very few Paladins like Cultural Gauntlets. I don't know why myself, but I tend to feel the lack of Str/Sta compared to most other available Gauntlets is the reason. This applies to the Pauldrons too.

Hope this helps.

Luminant Heraldic. Tons of froggies running around that use it.
I wouldnt invest in the fetid/ hateful, id make that to order.

How about Radiant, Salubrious, etc?

[Fallwell]

I made 1 full suit of Salubrious for myself and that's all I've ever made. I figure this is because most high level clerics I meet are High Elves and Dwarves, and most human clerics are mith marr/errolisi marr. As for Radiant, perhaps 8 or so pieces over time.

On a related note, the essences of sunlight are so rare on my server now that It took me 3 days of checking bazaar to make 1 royal temper. Therefore, I am not pre-making anything. This may or may not be a factor on your server.
