I spent between 8k-10k getting JC up to skill 242. I had to make and sell approximately 50 pieces of velium jewelry to make that back and break even. For example:
1 Velium Bar = 252pp , 1 Fire Opal = 50p, 10% failure rate = 332p cost to make Sell in EC for 500p means 168p profit. Only have to sell 48 of those to make back 8k. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] | ||

Classic allowed you to make marginal profit on combining and selling back the resulting jewelry to a vendor provided you enchanted the bar. This marginal cost was more or less offset by the 5% generic failure rate on combines in the long run though.
On this server, sort of you can? It isn't a huge amount of money. Aside from Alchemy, almost no tradeskills are worth the money invested to skill them up. Classic-Velious was very bad from a tradeskill end. The developers got much better at making tradeskills relevant in Luclin and PoP though.

Would be easier/cheaper/less frustrating to make a porter for easy $$$. I am actually thinking about leveling a druid or a wizard when my Necromancer hits 60...probably Druid...

It was pretty profitable a couple years ago, especially if you farmed your own gems.
These days you're more or less selling jewelry at or around cost of mats. So if farm gems, it's pretty much just a way to sell them quicker.

Well, I was thinking that while I was leveling I could choose mobs that drop certain JC materials so I could level+farm and raise JC at the same time. I just want to be very efficient with what zones I spend my time in. I don't want to backtrack. | |||
