Jewel Crafting

Jewel Crafting and all its glory

For those that Ponder, "Is it cheaper to buy average or better shards or to make my own?" or the better question, "If I make how own how many shabby shards are needed?"

Here is what I have on this matter.

NOTE: Price in green is the cost to manufacture from shabbys.

Example: 1 rough would need 3 shabby. 1 shabby is 530 coins so 3X530 = 1590 coins.
Also there is NO fee to craft the gems. Just go to the jewelcraftsmen after you have the right amount of shards. You need no skill level either.

Grade to make	Make from	Number needed	Total Cost
Shabby	(buy from NPC)	1 shabby	530 coin
Rough	3 shabby	3 shabby	1,590 coin
Blemished	3 rough	9 shabby	4,770 coin
Common	3 blemished	27 shabby	14,310 coin
Average	4 common	108 shabby	57,240 coin
Beautiful	4 average	432 shabby	228,960 coin
Flawless	4 beautiful	1728 shabby	915,840 coin
Immaculate	5 flawless	8640 shabby	4,579,200 coin
Perfect	5 immaculate	43200 shabby	22,896,000 coin
Incomparable	5 perfect	216,000 shabby	114,480,000 coin
Gem	6 incomparable	1,296,000 shabby	686,880,000 coin
Stone	6 gem	7,776,000 shabby	4,121,280,000 coin
Diamond of Tiger	6 stone	46,656,000 shabby	24,727,680,000 coin
Diamond of Dragon	3 Diamond of Tiger	139,968,000 shabby	74,183,040,000 coin

Use this to compare your prices. If you see a beautiful shard going for 300k, then you know you can make one cheaper.

Now compare the cost of the shabby to the cost of the shard the person is selling.
Example: An average garnet shard in the shop is 60k some player will sell it for 49~60k and the cost for 108 shabby garnets from the shop is 57,240 coins.
Don't let the number of shabby fool you, it's best to compare the prices.
