Most important tip i can give: do your own maths. Dont exactly craft what this video tells you to, but do your own maths and see if you can make profit off of crafting said item. No one will do the maths for you, unless you pay them.
This guide really helped me get into crafting. On another note, i feel like there's an absence of informative pvp videos. Literally every pvp video i find is either a challenge, montage or a supposedly bad build video. I know people say to just go in and find out yourself but honestly, would really appreciate some sort of guide to get into pvp. Some of the things I'd like to know more about are like how much ip would be comfortable to get into pvp, whether i should start with ganking or practice in corrupted dungeons, weapon options, so on so on
It’s the exact problem I have with 99% of Albion Online videos. People want to get big, but they don’t even bother to do a commentary. Why is it so hard for someone to do a voice over their pvp video explaining play by play their choices
Bro the PvP in this game is a multiple thing, there is plenty of PvP gameplays so the best to do is find PvP gameplays that you like or watch some videos about it to find, then you need to up your build specs especially if you do openworld PvP (100/100 in the basics and 80/100 on each item spec is a good start). And finally you start to do PvP with cheap builds to train, adjust, and when you gain confidence you try with higher gears. You also can do some CD's even it's only 1vs1 this train and help a lot to undertand all game mechanics such as burst, sustain, cc, mobility etc... Arena is cheap safe and fun too and train you for small scale PvP. At last try to find some experienced buddies IG and go with them, watch ask and listen you will progress fast.
@@Lucifer-rm2xy I understood, we're simply not talking about profit, which is what BigLips described it as. Profit = gain. The 110% here is simply earnings or revenue, including the money you had spent on the whole venture. I'm pretty sure BigLips doesn't want to hear complaints such as "yo bro where my 110% profit at" or "hey, i was supposed to be twice as rich, wtf bro"; you get the idea ;)
I wanted to add, if you can craft an item let say t4 capes and currently don't have the experience/level to, you're able to buy a bunch of t3 capes and research them at the tool maker to gain the level required to craft t4
13:37 As far as I know you don't get RRR on tame horses, only on leather. In this example you save a little less than 6 leather for 3283 focus, or around 8 silver per focus. This is sort of on par with using focus on farming chicken. But if you try to apply the same idea to low-level horses that sell well, you'll just be wasting focus for ~1 silver per. In general something to keep in mind for newbros: think how much of the profit comes from trading (buy low sell high), how much from using focus, and how much from the actual crafting. And if it's worth your time, especially for crafts that don't build any spec.
Hey man love your videos. Do you think you could do something for PvP where you explain how to counterplay against defensive cooldowns and other powerful cooldown based abilities?
This would be great. Just record a fight and explain what your reasoning is and what is going on while it plays. Something along the line off: sword has 3 stacks so i’m saving my helmet block for when he does his dash to avoid the biggest dmg. Love the vids man!
I feel like I must be missing something because Ive done the math and even with focus you lose moeny crafting T8 gear. Even gathering resources and refining them is worse than just selling the ore, which literally makes no sense.
Thats because, every t8 crafter use journals, so u have a bigger return (sorry my english xd), let me try to explain : you craft some t8 item, fill the journal,the worker bring you material,so the final cost of the item u craft is the cost of the materials and crafting fees minus the returned material
In the first two examples, your profit was 35% and 10%, not 135% and 110%. Same for the following ones. Should also count the market fees. But still good content, thanks for sharing
thanks smart mcgee, i had to use focus to make furniture for my island, now the price is going to drop hopefully. You did dirty to some people who use this tho lmao
3K focus for ~39k silver profit on the mount = 13 SPF, that's not a good deal. I'm sure there's good deals in there somewhere, but that ain't it. If I recall, max spec carrots are 50 SPF? So going lower than that seems counterproductive.
Which depending on the margins may or may not be worth it. 20 minutes of math for 300k silver, no thanks. 20 minutes of math for 1.5m silver though? Now we're starting to talk! And while you don't want to oversupply and definitely have to check VERY carefully how many generally sell an hour (300 MP 5.1 royal sandals at once is probably going to do something to the prices), many methods are scalable to a point. I'd rather make 10% on a 100m/d cap item than 30% on a 10m/d cap item, that's for sure.
@@bararobberbaron859 for sure there's profit to be made. Its also good experience for real world investing and trading on the stock market. Now that I've learned how to make Microsoft excel spread sheets I feel like that would be even easier. Can have the spreadsheet do the math for you and calculate real time profits.
Crafting royal items got dipped since Lands Awaken. Prices were higher pre-update. The big question is how to craft T7 and T8 royal items as per method not buying royal sigils from market?
Or buy order hce maps, and recicle them.you only have to find the map that have the biggest return ( it took me nearly 5 mill. To find it so i wont tell you xd
Well. Crap. Now I gotta find a new trade-skill for money making due to the impending market crash from this video. At least it won’t be as bad as the stone market.
@ivancastillo4079 yeah, the guild I run we stopped doing babies except for bears. we mainly breed for members now. one time we had 2 islands farms only yield 3 babies. it ended up being more profitable to use focus on crops for the extra seed yield. wheat is a good one to sell. the guild makes enough now to get our officers premium to get islands and then reinvest into farms.
Correct me if I'm wrong but profit % are for example on the horse is 30% not 130% becouse that would mean you got back the invested money on the double and 30%. No?
As far as personal islands go, do you recommend for/against rare mount crafting? Interested in doing Boars/Moose as they're staples for gatherers and I do a lot of Lymhurst faction content so Piglets are easy to come by. Buuut, it looks like a lot of investment needed when I could just farm crops or farm animals and use focus elsewhere (like Cloth refining and crafting bags/tools) Thanks!
I tried rare animal breeding... the profit is meh. 3 days feeding as well. Focus does jack shit with like 6% baby rate per focus spend. Maybe at T8 with 500m in your bank it's worthwhile but like most stuff in albuon the profit margins are tiny. You'd think since it takes 3 days it would yield more but not really. Once you craft the mount then it can make a little but essential if you buy order the animal it's the same thing 😂
The prices are not that high tbh. You can make profit out of the most stations with a few exceptions. They are only really detrimental for people tryin to level their profession while wanting to "make a profit". Most (if not all) games that have crafting you have to choose between making profit or leveling fast your professions. I choose the first one and still made profit from 1 to 100 in daggers.
Man the stations in cities are just handled by a fucking mafia, just look at how all prices are the same. If you ever try to buy a station then lower the price they will all be lower than you soon til you sell your station or apply the same price as them
105K is 110% of 96k, but profit is the wrong word for that, it's revenue. The profit is everything above 100%, since the first 100% matches the expenses since he calculates the sale price as 'percentage of expenses'. So it's 110% of expenses, -100% for the expenses, means 10% profit.
You for sure need to keep a good eye on the markets, how many sell an hour, or if you're doing fancier stuff with higher margins, every day. Margins on certain 8.3 items can be quite massive (especially if you spike a MP) but if it only sells 3 a week, you have to be super careful. Meanwhile 4.1 Capes sell by the 1000s an hour. It's all about balancing profit per item with the market cap.
So he used the word profit instead of revenue, the math was fine. 130% revenue (130% of expenses) would make for 30% profit, which I'd argue you can deduce from the numbers shown on screen.
You can craft royal items without being able to craft the predecessor item for it
Yeah.. It is the same as crafting faction capes.. you only need materials..
do jounals work on royal armors?
@@neochua7987 nope. You dont get fame by crafting royal items or faction capes. So journals are useless at this point

If i invest 96k into crafting and make 105k back, my profit isn't 110%; since i made about 9k on it, my profit is around 8.5%.
@Ace Mercury That's fine, as long as you do.
By 110% he means 100% i.e. the money invested + 10% which is the approximate profit. I think you misunderstood it :)

How is the profit 105 percent profit when u got only like 5 percent profit from a Sause ?
Yeah he means revenue, subtract 100% and you have the real profit

Hi good video but you dont need to have tier 4 crafting to craft royal items
Don't know if buy order were mentioned but you can save a ton by putting in buy orders too.
Nvm I see it now it's at the end.

No one hustles harder than poor travertine farmers lol.
6 months later and almost all low tier crafting is a money sink that will be a loss. Only reason to craft rn is to lvl up to higher tier crafting
Even if you don't get much profit from mounts straight away, you almost always make profit in the long run because of offspring yield
At 10 percent offspring yield you are basically gambling.

Should you gather your own materials or just buy them.
gather would save money but it takes a long time. Usually more efficient to buy them and use the time making money some other way.
