Q:

I’m currently at 430/500 for artificing. I want to know if the Grawl Snowman Potion is viable to level up to 450. http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Grawl_Snowman_Potion

I’m trying to ‘save’ money, so mostly I’ve just been crafting exotics and selling them on the TP. But if this potion can get me to 450 faster, I don’t mind dropping the money for it.

Have you looked into the RARE recipes you might not have discovered yet?

Buy the inscriptions on the TP, discover the items and then salvage or sell on TP (depending on what you need). They don’t provide a lot toward 500 but every little bit can help you get to 450 and open up the Ascended material refinement tier.

I actually didn’t consider that, and I don’t think I ever had to discover any rare lvl 80 recipes. But their rating is at 375, and I’m already at 430…that’s a difference of 55 levels. Would it even be a decent gain of exp?

I’ve only crafted three exotics so far, so I still have plenty of recipes left. But this potion is still listed as orange in my crafting panel. The potion only costs 1g, as opposed to exotics that average 5g. (buy materials, make the item, sell on TP) If the gain of exp is the same, I’d rather make the potions.

I’ve used this site for cheapest crafting. To get to level 450 in artificer, it does have you discover several potions. http://www.gw2crafts.net/artificing_400.html One of its flaws is that it doesn’t seem to consider Ascended refinement. But it’s still useful to give you ideas as to what is the best items to discover.
