Architect Archive

Seems.....way easy. Not counting the resource requirements it seems like a no-brainer.

Why would you choose to get Master any other way? Are the combine times insane or something? What do they even sell for?

Realistically you probably can't sell them.

If you are only going for Master because a holo told you so, and you have purchased / harvested 700K of resources that you don't want to see any return on, then grinding statues is a no-brainer.

If you really WANT to be an architect and/or can't afford to just burn down 700K of resources, then you grind walls and either save them or sell them.

Working my way up the Architect Tree , I built walls , and you CAN NEVER have enough walls =)

what is the walls used for when i do my holo i will go arch.. hehe

uhhh walls....houses hello lol..walls r used for alot of things in arch including harvestors...and it seems like you need alot especially for guild halls and city halls eh?

Dunno, our bazaar is flooded with 3k statues, I'll never have to make them again.

you can sell walls and get up to architect with a profit or at least a no-loss situation, this is not the case with statues.

but grinding walls will take you 5 times as long or more, and that's time you could have been using to make money doing other things (not that running missions is that much more fun than grinding crafting).

If you made strange or weird statues, you might be able to sell them. I will only make statues by special order, and then I name them specifically for the person purchasing them. Like "In memory of those that have fallen" or whatever. They are never on my vendor.

Walls, on the other hand, can be sold to a master architect for upwards of 10k each. That's reasonable profit on something you'd otherwise grind away. And if you harvest the resources yourself for the walls, you will actually make credits, and provide something useful to your local economy.

I sold all of my grind walls to a local master. A week after I was master I was really wishing I had those walls back, as I was completely resource constrained, and it seemed like everyone and their brother wanted a large house. Now, my advice would to be sell only the walls you need to sell to break even on harvester maintenance and keep the rest for yourself.

Also, if you are looking for something else that gives great xp, and will be useful later, build generator turbines. They take 6 different resources, but they give great xp. Keep those on hand for later as well.

Another grind candidate I sell a fair number of is fountains (actually the fire ones). I make the square Braziers, rename them "Fireplace" and sell them for10k. I sell the round ones, renamed "Firepit" as well, but less frequently. A square Brazier stuffed into a corner looks an aweful lot like a fireplace, and I demonstrate this in my house, which may be why they sell so well.
