currrently at engineering iii , i notice ityou will not get higher exp if you craft a higher complex item. FOr example if I craft a "crafting tool" with a complex of 11 and if I craft a muzzle with a complex of 14 , I will get more exp for "crafting too".

So, what do u guys normally craft to pump your exp ?

Thanks.

Xp is determined from resources used, not complexity. Craft Harvesters for 500xp a pop

i am on my way to engineer iii , can't craft havester now.

is the xp really that straightforward? more resources, more xp?

It seems that the number of different types of resources needed gives more xp too.. Try some of the food in domestic arts 3. Same compelxity as other metal items, but since they use 2-3 differnt organics the xp is more.

Disadvantage, can't really grind on them cause organics are more limited.

Yes. yes it is.

In fact, you can pretty much estimate that resources*2 will be your xp (I believe that this is in practice mode).

So, the long and short of it is: Craft whatever uses the most resources of the least number of types to grind efficiently.

Examples include:
Chemical Survey Tool - 55xp (Metal only)
Wood Staff - 30xp (Wood Only)
Soft Undershirt - 92xp (Polymer + Fiberplast)

hey, when i was grinding towards Tailor, i grinded bone chestplates. they give you about 540 or 600 xp a pop, i forgot which one though. do NOT grind harvesters, because unless they changed something since then, crafting harvesters gives you ARCHITECT xp, which is useless if you want to be anything else. heck, even if you DO want to be an Architect, you'll need to get novice architect, which i'm sure requires general crafting xp.

Yes they have changed it, crafting personal harvesters gives GCXP.

I craft Bone Armors... they need both much resources and many different resources, so making a bone armor breast plate gives you quite much xp... of course it takes a little more time because you need to make three fiberplast panels and a bone armor segment. you also need much bone and hide.

If you can get ppl to use your stuff you'll get more xp.

If you have domestic 4 make travel packs it gives about 120 xp per.... doing that you can get about 20k of xp in about 20-30 minutes.
