Jewel Crafting Guides?

Eqtc has formulae for how likely you are to skill up per combine and how likely you are to succeed at a combine. You can they cross reference that with wiki to see the average cost per skill up of each combine to find the cheapest way to skill up jewelcrafting. Alternatively you could find the path that requires the least combines to level up.

Obviously having a way to parse and script this data would be helpful in your quest to find the best route for skipping up jewelcrafting?

All you need to do for a "guide" is sort that table by cost then make the lowest trivial thing that would result in a skill up.

This. I'm all for excuses to make fun calculation widgets in the wiki, but there's just no need here.

Plus, I'd argue that both the EQTC formula, and the P99 formula for that matter, is wrong in a critical way (successes or failures did not impact your chance of getting a skill-up in classic!) ... but that's a pet peeve for another thread.

If a guide doesnt have someone like this guy walking me through every step then its not a guide! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

You can achieve the same effect by getting carpal tunnel, flushing 50k platinum down the drain, and then buying your items at-cost from Arleigh

Truer words have never been spoken ... but you can't get a shawl that way.
