Craft levelled to 400 gives about 7 levels and craft levelled to 500 ten. Currently cooking and jewellery can only be levelled to 400. However, the levels between 400 and 500 are expensive.

If you are planning on playing more than one character, you might want to divide the crafts 2/character. A character can learn all of them, but only two are ‘active’ at any given time. Activating a passive craft costs a little bit every time.

If I were starting with a new (first) character, I would pick two crafts that benefit that character. One to make armor and weapons that the character can use. Cooking and jewellery can benefit any character, but they are also much easier to level later if you save all the plants you gather and all the pebbles and other precious rocks you mine along the metals.

I don’t know any websites, sorry.

Please pay attention to the type of armor your 1st character wears (heavy – Armorsmith, Medium – Leatherworking, Light – Tailoring) but yes I would suggest your first crafting skill is the armor your only character wears.

As for weapons, that is a little trickier. A lot of characters use weapons from different crafters. Look at the type of weapons you mainly use and start with that skill.

Here is a site I have used in the past. It will take you to 400 and you can google others that go to 500.. As was stated earlier, 400-500 is very expensive so don’t rush to go there.

I personally enjoy crafting but others do not find it as enjoyable. It is an fun part of the overall game for me. If you do not find it as enjoyable, go to the TP and buy the gear you need to level. You will find it inexpensive and fairly easy to do.

Good luck and enjoy!!!

Actually if you are a warrior, you should be doing weapons crafting first. The main reason: armor craft requires a lot of cloth. They are still very expensive because ascended crafting needed them, and you can never get enough from drops. Weapon smith’s ore are much cheaper now.

After weapons smith, you want to probably do cooking, as the mats are cheaper as well. Any types of armor smith (light medium and heavy) are all a bad idea to start. Once you get to lvl 80 and am interested in ascended armor, then take up armor smith.

these numbers will likely be slightly different when you go there
