point of rare jewelery
It’s much easier to get mithril, 3 crystals, and 3 ecto than to get orichalcum, 5 orbs, and 5 ecto… and the stats aren’t extremely different from rare to exotic.
But yeah, I do see your point and I have only ever crafted 1 piece of rare mithril jewelry and that was to level my Jewelry crafting from 380 to 400. I have crafted many many pieces of Exotic Jewelry, and sold all but 5 that were for my own character.
If you have the ecto, it’s not unwise. If your broke,then I would stick with the rare version, but that goes for armor and weapons as well. I woudl focus on armour first, but if you have full exotic armour and 1-2 exotic weapons, then it makes sense, to know you have the best of the best in jewelry to top it all off. At this point, I have different versions of exotic jewelry, for magic find, and for crit damage.
Hey, is it just me or is it… unwise to craft rare jewelery? Seeing as it needs ectoplasm anyway I might as well craft exotic?
Am I missing something? Sure it needs orbs but they are easily craftable from lower level tier gems.
There is absolutely no point in crafting the rare pieces requiring 3 orbs & ecto when the exotic only needs 5. Orbs can be transmogrified from lower level gems, and Orichalcum is a 100% drop rate once you locate the current position of the nodes in Malchor’s, Cursed Shore and Frostgorge.
Anyone who tells you the 3&3 rare versions are worth making are probably the same people selling items for < material value yet believe they are still making money.
yep i agree. though if you really need some jewelries, just the mastercraft will do, like, say, for Magic find ones :P
