Just about to be novice armorsmith. What advice do you guys have? What are good crafts for xp? How to set up harvesters? What to harvest? Best skills to learn first? Or anything at all.





The only advice I can give you is this: Get you're resources first, then worry about tapes.


Really, the biggest difference that tapes make in your armor is in the HAM cost. With buffs the way they are right now, unfortunately most players don't pay attention to HAM costs.


The really sad thing I tend to see on my server is newbie smiths with a little bit of money (or perhaps a guild behind them) go out and pay 50 mil for some tapes and then either figure out they don't like all the work involved in armorsmithing or they discover that the tapes don't make up for poor resources.


Good luck and hang in there. It's going to take you about 6 months to catch up with the older smiths on your server, just to let you know.
