So after dragging my beaten body home from months of conquering the lands, I figure it's time to relax and dip my hand into Tradeskilling.
My small guild needed a Woodworker, so I got an alt up to Level 21 Woodworker primarily by crafting new recipies to pristine and getting the exp bonus.
Well, now that I'm officially a Woodworker, I'm looking for advice. A scan of the forums at EQ2Craft shows that quills and paper seem to be the meat and potatos of daily sales. On-demand wand crafting also seems to be big.
I'm familiar with the crafting process, pulses, buffs, etc. I'm still a little unorganized as far as my inventory. I'm making onesies-twosies of items and have lots of leftovers. I seem to be moving away from one tier of wood and into another. But not sure if it's safe to get rid of all the lower tier stuff yet.
I'm not into it for a huge profit, but I'd prefer to craft wisely and at least break even or make a little coin. This leads me in with a few questions:
1. Any general advice for Woodworking?
2. I have recipies for drums and flutes. Are these equipable items with stat bonuses like bandoliers? (I haven't made any, I guess I should and find out)
3. Is there a list somewhere of what other tradeskill professions need my products? I guess it would be smart to make what sells. I figure Sages would need my paper and quills.
4. Those special artisan books, woodworking, geomancy, weaving, etc. When do I get to buy a level 2 book?
