Crafting guild for dummies

How to maximize  reputation with your crafting faction with least possible effort?

It might be simpler than you think actually., without crafting every single day which is super boring and tedious.

First let's look at the numbers. We have seven tiers of crafting that allow us to craft reputation items:

  1. Expert
    1. Small - 300
    2. Medium - 900
  2. Artisan
    1. Small - 400
    2. Medium - 1200
  3. Master
    1. Small - 500
    2. Medium - 1500
    3. Large - 3000
  4. Supreme
    1. Small - 600
    2. Medium  - 1800
    3. Large - 3600
  5. Westfold
    1. Small - 700
    2. Medium - 2100
    3. Large - 4200
  6. Eastemnet
    1. Small - 800
    2. Medium - 2400
    3. Large - 4800
  7. Westemnet
    1. Small - 900
    2. Medium - 2700
    3. Large - 5400
This means that we can craft a total of 37800 reputation points in one day when everything is off cooldown (once a week).

To max out the Westemnet master, we need a total of 280,000 points, which means that we would need to craft once a week for 8 weeks, or craft every day for consecutive 17 days, using the formulas that were already published on the web.

If we add to the mix reputation acceleration tokens, we can effectivelly craft once a week for 75600 reputation points (using 38 small reputation acceleration tomes), and cut down the time needed to four weeks which is already a lot better.

How can we make this even shorter without crafting every day, well, we can add one more day of crafting a week, that will produce 16800 points (33600 when accelerated). With this added, we will have a total of 5 crafting days spread over 3 weeks. It would look something line this:

Sunday (week one): 75600 (total: 75600)
Wednesday (week one): 33600 (total: 109200)
Sunday (week two): 75600 (total: 184800)
Wednesday (week two): 33600 (total: 218400)
Sunday (week three): 75600 (total 294000) - more than needed for max

This scheme would require a total of 140 small reputation acceleration tomes.

Total bill of materials for each profession will come in future posts :)
