    Great video! I would like to add that you don't actually have to connect Trent to Behr (or Longleaf) to get that extra lodging in Trent (saves some contribution). So basically you can go straight into Behr and invest into that lodging. Also another thing, for turning in the crates, you can open up your life skill level window and click the sticker ui button in the top right. This enables that window to stay open when trading. This way you don't have to exit out all the time to check your trading level and do the bargain mini-game over and over.

    Lazy veteran player here. Running my pc 24/7 which means my worker empire is also gathering raw materials 24/7 and afk process all of them while im spending time with my family in the living room. Have my Grana workers go to Calp to make Calph, Serendia, Brass, Bronze, and Steel crates. I make about 6-10 billion silver (that's 1 tet acce right there w/o killing 1 mob) in every month or month half when I turn all my crates in. This is for the players like me that has a life outside bdo.

    can you add and say that this : Trading lifeskill : is the best way Free to play players can sell their raw materials in node empire or gathering. because F2p players will run out of value pack sooner or later. then selling raw materials in central market will be only at 65% value. while doing the trading lifeskill will give something like 90% of the value of raw materials or more like 110% at most(but with more effort).

    To all those who must connect the nodes to Valencia city. THIS IS NOT EASY, you'll get mad believe me. Some nodes manager are a pain to find and are in the middle of dangerous mobs. Bring your combat gear and watch for your horse. You will need ALOT of patience and DONT DO THIS IF YOU HAD A BAD DAY. Anyway thanks for the video.

Just max out your weight, took me about a week to do it on the oliva servers with the lifeskill buff. Really looking forward to seeing how you make money with artisan 2.

I started literally 20 days ago and have surpassed some of my guild mates already. Artisian in more than half my life skills all because of your videos! thank you so much, great videos and to the point. I am still learning a ton, but I watch almost every one of your videos. 2 things, 1 You show some spreadsheets and say you leave the link in the comments, for some reason I just cant find the links on your videos so I can download them? is it just me or am I blind haha. I really would like this one and a few others from some of your other vids. 2nd question, do you have anything for end game or should I say "mid game" lol... I power leveled to 61 using your guides "change tomb" etc. But I am main questline kamasylvia quests. Some of the quests require 240 ap, in full narch and capotia I am 225 ap. And I seem to be lost on where to go from here.... how to get up my ap? only buying new gear now? can I farm better gear? there are a few questions I have. A mid game guide would help so many I think.

    The disclaimer does not come even close on how many cp you need and time you have to invest to keep a decent system running, Im just talking calpheon serendia and only one of brass/bronze/steel, if you want to do sunflower to get t9 materials and any junk crate on the top we are talking about 300 cp+. papu worker in Grana burn their stamina so fast, using mastery gear while processing gets you overweight also quickly so its not a total afk lifeskill any longer, you have to buy processing costume and worker lodging in Grana OWT and kamasylvia. you really burn a lot energy rolling workers, so if you follow any other of these guides (gathering/"normal" node empire) you can forget about those, like 3 workers + lodging for shakatu farmland? gathering one hour per day? forget that, you wont have the cp or energy for weeks to come if you want to get a crate empire rolling you will just end half committed to either of both. and btw, Im not talking about connecting northern mediah highland (maple) and dormann timber camp (fir). Im sure your guide will be great in the end, but you should emphasize a lot more on what you are people leading up to

I got amity with Bravant to 500, bought a contract, won't let me buy a second one so look at the amity and it's dropped back to 5, play amity to 500 again, buy a second contract, won't let me buy another one, look at the amity and oh look, it's at 14... aaaand that's where I stopped for now.
