What Items give the most XP for general crafting, and do you get more XP for experimenting???

Hi,

The crafting tools give the most general crafting xp. Specifically the food/chem crafting tool. I think you get 68 XP for each one you make.

You get NO extra XP for experimenting.. exoperimenting is used for making better end products.

Oh and if you want to just make stff for XP and not to sell.. then use practice box on step 6 of 6.

If you can do the bone armor chestplate. After making the three fiberplast panels and the armor segment it's worth around 600 XP of general crafting. Basically every schematic from the Artisan tree gives general crafting XP and you get 2 XP per resource. So just find what requires the most resources and you'll get the most XP.

oh ok thanx guys

In the Artisan tree I liked doing the Heavy Axe. It required 41x resources of steel and wood. Having only 2 resources to sample made life easy. With the bonus you get from "practicing" it was about 100 xp per axe.

The Architect tree has been slightly a different experience. I have been gettinga good amount of uxp and I'm not quite sure where it comes from. I know you get a certain amount of uxp when the buyer actually uses the item... but I don't think that's what I've been seeing. I made a change a few nights ago and my uxp stopped, and over the last two days has been slowly building back up again. I'm keeping a sharp eye on it now because as I said earlier I was getting a substantial amount until a couple days ago.

If you have any Domestic Arts, I found soft undershirt GREAT for grinding, 45 resources, 90xp without practice.

I've heard that you only get UXP up to the amount of XP you earned from crafting. So if it was worth 100 XP then you would get UXP trickling in until it hit 100 for that item then it would stop. So if you sold a lot of things at once that could explain the drop off. You hit your limit for that item and aren't getting it from that anymore.

You could be correct Waste, I'm not sure yet. What you stated doesn't quite fit what I perceive to have happened but I'm not certain either. What I do know is that I was getting about 15-25k of uxp per day (24 hours) and I made a change ( I don't want to say what yet ) and instantly my uxp to about 1 uxp per hour. It's been coming back up slowly (was about 41 uxp per hour yesterday) but I sure miss the extra 15-25k per day. I'm hoping it's not a bug, which is the reason for not saying much yet.

My selling has been pretty constant.... not much to speak of but about 30k per day and based on prices of 5c per resource. That's equates to 6k in resources on the average and 12k reg xp ( which is why I'm really missing the uxp right now).

Reinforced combat staves used to give around 80 exp. Not sure now though since I havent actually crafted one in a while.
