Brewing GM with only 2 items!

[Fridgecritter]

I will dispense with the formalities, and get to the meat. Make twice brewed double stout dwarven ale (look up the recipe on this site) till 148 and then make minotaur hero's brew till 248 (All items for both drinks can be purchased for CHEAP off of vendors in kaladim and in PoK, so you can be GM brewer in 1 day)

No short beer sold in PoK, you'd have to go to SH to get it.

Other than that, yea, it could work but you can do it cheaper to do fetid essense to 122, one fishing grub and one flask of water (both of which are sold in PoK) sell for way less than DBDS.

From 122 up to 148 you could do dbds or Faydwer's Shaker up into the 180s, thus delaying the wrist-wrecking MHB and all it's subcombines. It's also store bought (halas has been touted as an excellent place for it, there have been others) and is inexpensive.

My personal preference is to use Shar Vahl essense. True I have to walk around SH a few times to get the fruit, but at least it's only the cost of a water flask per combine. Depends on if you want to use money or time to skill it up.

What subcombines? All items for MHBs are avaiable directly from merchants, in some places a mere couple of steps from a brew barrel.

i think he means the wrist problems associated with a 9 item combine and not the subcombines of it. 9 item combines are hard. want to gm the easy wrist tradeskill do jc. brewing is cheap and easy too though.

[GraemeFaelban]

I am intimately familiar with MHBs, he just specifically said subcombines, and I wanted to clarify for anyone that there are none for MHBs.

Short Beer in SH

Pretty sure their is a Gnome near the shaman vender area that sells Gnomish Spirts (why I know) and Short Beer.

[eniamn]

if you make your own short beer in pok then mhb has subcombines but for the love of all that is (un)holy (hey you might be an sk or something doing this) dont make your own short beer.

Faydwer's Shaker

Darn easy in my home of Ak'Anon. =) Everything sold within about 10 steps from the brew barrel. And the bank is just down the hall!

You can't go wrong.

I did these in SkyShrine since all the city barrels seem taken when I want to tradeskill.

All the items sold in the same room as the barrel, or the next room over in SS.

My path:

Fetid Essence to 122 (PoK. Took me all of 15 minutes and 4 pp)
Faydwer Shaker to 188 (Skyshrine)
MHB up from there (Oggok)

for uber cheapness do shar vhal essence instead of fay shakers to 187. ground spawn are hard to beat in price. get 28 fruit per circuit so not that hard.

Can you point me to a list of the ground spawn /locs? I have a list of like 8, but you said 28. Would save me a lot of time if you would not mind sharing. =)

I don't have any /locs but I can tell you where the others are.

Everyone who has eight has the same eight, the ones between the fire dancers and Elefan.

The others are on the other side of the zone. They're at the same end of the zone as the Shar Vahl newbie area, just on the other side. To get there put the entrance to Shar Vahl behind you and walk.

There are a couple of groves of Payala trees over there (look for the purple leaves) and that's where they're found. One grove seems to not have any, but the other one or two have lots.

They're easy to find - I never write down the /locs because the purple leaves on the trees give them away.

Check it out... it's in the DB under Payala Fruit


I can't thank the ones who came up with the DB format enough! You guys are so awsome!

my plan

KK can slap me if this sounds dumb...but.

Why not level up into the 160s by brewing Halas Heaters. All the items are sold in thurg except for the brown algae. So you make one run to cobalt scar (not to hard) and buy a ton of algae. Then you can resell the successes to a smith or take the time to brew your own Coldain Velium Temper.

I have spent alot of time looking around trying to fit peices of different trades together to make things cheaper. Like why not do fillets up to 140 something and do them in each of the 4 meat classes (lion bear wolf and mammoth) so that you have enough to make like 200 attempts on Halas 10lb meat pie (good for leveling and making plat (I think) in the mean time) I still have over 300meat pies in the bank cant use bazzaar in Japan for some strange reason so they sit there. Now if there was just a way for me to combine brewing with something other then smithing.
