You can get you skill up to the level of making banded armor reliably with about 100pp; you can then sell the armor for 90pp a set, which is about twice as much as it costs to make. At low levels, it's an OK source of profit; at high levels, it's not worth it. More or less the same can be said of making Wu's, though those set sell for 400pp and you need an enchanter. Jewelcrafting is faster and more profitable when you get it to high levels, but you need an enchanter. Alchemy isn't bad if you're a shaman. Pottery lets you make wisdom deities that sell for 80pp, but I think you need a cleric (?) to enchant; there may also be other recipies.

All in all, I'd say only do it if you find it to be an appealing idea. The fastest way to make money is just to hit max level and then farm or power level.

Are these wisdom deities even in 1999? It seems you can only make poison vials so far and those are useless since they are a cheap buy from a vendor.

Yes, small wisdom deities (+2 WIS, Range-equippable) are in.

For perspective's sake, consider if there were way fewer people invested in tradeskills than there are. SoW potions would be rare, +stat and resist jewelry would be rare, practically no banded armor on the market (was absolutely useful at server launch!), rare hand-made backpacks (those extra two slots come in more handy than you would think!), among other things.

One thing I can't understand is why NO ONE but me seems to bother with +stat baked goods. Glazed Carp is +4 INT! Dwarf chops are +2 STA, +2 STR! This is for a slot (food) in which zero other items are available. Nothin says lovin like something from the oven, people!!

Cyra was always my favorite. Starting out with Basic Diplomacy is pretty essential for 200% difficulty.

Before they released kunark jewelcrafting and smithing were pretty decent.

My little chanter made me a decent sum of plat, but that took a decent amount of time in EC.

Kunark drove down the prices on Classic Gear so smithing is a waist of time now.
