If you have the Harvesters to get large bulk materials you can grind out Architect in less than 5 hours pretty easily. I would do that one if I were you.

I did it by making Walls by hand and then making Houses out of them (that way I was making money off it also by selling the houses). The quicker way I have heard was to make Gungan Head Statues the whole time. Good luck!!

1. Architect


2. Chef


3. Droid Engineer


4. Tailor


5. Weaponsmith


6. Armorsmith

I would say armorsmith is the toughest because of the difficulty in collecting hides and having to make the segs and synth cloth. I think you probably need about 70-80k in hides alone.

i just did AS using the mabri chest peices, after you stockpiled the syn cloth and armorweave segments you just have to buy 80k hide. With all the people doing Rancor misisosn these days its pretty easy to find people with alot of hide that are willing to sell for 3-7 cpu. I offered 7 cpu for 20k stacsk and had about 10 tells in a span of a few minutes. Just offer what you can afford though.

i just made DE,

anyone have any opinion where DE stands with the other elite professions as far as ease of advancement?

check on the respective crafting forums for each profession..there are stickied grinding guides on most of them if not all

I knew I forgot one. DOH!

Edited my post above.

DE wasn't hard at all..just required a whole lotta steel for the endless advanced droid frame units and the creative grinder can find an easier way than this one

weaponsmith and armorsmith are both tough grinds in part because there is nothing either can make that pays out well in xp

and architect is easy, so the order i would say is (easiest to hardest):

architect, DE, chef/tailor (about the same to me), ws, as (easier if you can find crates of synthcloth but lowest without it)

Thanks for the replies. Here is a question about tailoring (no i have not researched much): What type of resources does tailoring use? Is it hide or something else?

Based on what I've read here so far I'll probably try to knock off architect and maybe DE.

Also, what about chef, is it a lot of gathering? are resource vendors easy to find for cheap grind ingredients?

For tailor, there's a great sticky post for the grind in the forums. I don't recall the amounts off-hand, but you'll need piles of steel, fiberplast and petrochemical. Once you get to ribbed shirts, you can grind those to cartridge belts. Those will get you to master, but it doesn't take too long if you have a good crafting macro and several tools.
