=== Zyxs' guide === First, go do the GoD ore refinement quest to get the ability to process GoD era ore drops. You won't need it for the higher level skillups in this guide, but you'll never know when you'll need it, and it's better to get the drudgery out of the way now when it's productive. Then go do '''[https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/quest.html?quest=3565 Beginner Smith Test]''' In the list below, there's a couple of racial items. Making the racial needles is not limited by your race. If you don't want to spend any time fishing or foraging, make some Fetid Essence and use that with the needles. The racial sewing kits are linked to your race and can only be made in your race's city in the racial forge. The Envenomed pieces require components that are farmed from the Goru`kar mesa, but can frequently be found on their merchants. Succeeding on the steel gives you a shot at the cheaper blade combine, succeeding on the blade gives you a shot at the practically free athame combine. Cost, Item, Trivial * .404, Dairy Spoon, 74 * 1.091, Banded Gorget, 92 * 2.073, Embroidering Needle, 122 * fishing, Racial needles (from Embroidering Needle), 132 * 6.571, Racial Sewing kit, 162 * 18.173, Envenomed Steel, 190 * 11.55, Envenomed Steel Blade, 190 * .015, Envonomed Athame, 190 From this point, take a look at the cost of the ore drops in the bazaar. *Vanadium Ore Drop, Vanadium Barbs, 268 *Palladium Ore Drop, Palladium Barbs, 282 I was able to get Vanadium and Palladium for 20pp a piece from the bazaar, with 11 stacks of Vanadium to get me from 190 to 268, and 5 stacks of palladium to get me to 282. (Level 68, 392 Int/322 str). *49.872 + Tungsten Ore Drop, Tungsten Chain Bracer Template, 310 (95% success at 282 w/ 8% mod) *65.622 + Cobalt Ore Drop, Cobalt Chain Bracer Template, 348 (95% success at 282 w/ 8% mod) *99.747 + Titanium Ore Drop, Titanium Chain Bracer Template, 386 (83% success at 282 w/ 8% mod) *131.598 + Tantalum Ore Drop, Tantalum Chain Bracer Template, 424 (68.75% success at 282 w/ 8% mod) Knowing the full cost of the recipes, you should be able to look at the price of materials in the bazaar and find which of the 4 will give you the most cost effective final formula. You can also think of it like this: If the market is 100pp for tungsten, then 85pp for cobalt, 50pp for titanium, or 20 for tantalum is functionally the same for getting skillups. Based on the EQTraders calculator, trying the harder 2 recipes will have less than a 0.02% difference in skill up chance, which is small enough to be inconsequential. If you've got a 400 or higher prime stat, that difference goes away. [[Category:EverQuest]] [[Category:Tradeskills]]
