And also, what was Dir trading? Because another thing is only really powerful players can solo Master-level Bandits. Otherwise you'll hit a kind of "softcap" by yourself, because bandits have a nasty habit of spawning right in front of you/under you sometimes...

Topaz and Palala crystals on an elephant. Those are apparently only good enough to spawn Veterans. I got jumped twice and lost 16 crystals at one point (darn bosses), but it wasn't a really major hit.

There are other issues like getting to the elephant, but there are also issues getting to Senior and Expert talent levels to get into advanced and hard missions. Plus this was ignoring any side items he might have found, but for the purposes of this (finding out which gives the most gold/exp in an hour) commerce wins.

Another thing that wasn't taken into consideration in this is repair cost. Spamming shadow missions, especially at advanced/hard/elite where you'll want to use some decent gear, involve constant fighting. When doing commerce on the other hand, if you are boring like most people, you tend to avoid most of the fighting. Besides, if you use fomor weapons, the repair cost is already covered by the trading.

Dropping in to say I'll be gone all this week and might not be able/willing to play until the middle of the week after.

Caved and reinstalled the game. Did some starting missions and applied to the guild. Made an elf archer to try something different. Still readjusting to the combat. Still have to find my groove, flailing around a bit too much.

[Ibid Straydrink]

For the record, he started the whole thing...
...and paid dearly for it. (also he is being bitter)

Man I have done, like, 5 sand sculptures. NOTHING BUT GEMS.

Give me the darn swimsuit. It's the only thing I want from this event!

If there's anything you're having particular issue with please feel free to check the giant guide mass at the bottom of the OP (note to self, I still need to condense that thing and rewrite it, maybe I'll do it after this) to see if any of them apply. If not, asking the thread/guild chat is usually a safe bet. Also is your name in game Kaitol or will it be something else? I mean I don't think we've ever gotten a non solicited out of B12 person but you never know. Nevermind, you're in!

[Girlinhat]

Reached r3 Mining.  Smelting gets easier at r5 because you get massive exp for making Plates - by this time you have stockpiles of ingots and making plates is easy.

[Seriyu]

OP updated! It's been drastically shortened. Maybe people will read it now.

EDIT: DID ANYONE HERE APPLY UNDER THE NAME ISATH? If so post so I know.

[Kaitol]

I stuck le in the middle of my name to make it sound more elvish and feminine.

Still struggling my way through things. Ran the main quest up till the Paradise barri dungeon. Than tried a little commerce. Ran a dungeon or two and picked up a couple craft skills to try and make bandages and arrows.

[Seriyu]

Haha, yeah, just gotcha in in fact.

Repeating what I edited in above, Did anyone apply under the name Isath? Just saying this a few times so people see it.

EDIT: The internet has decided I'm done for the day, Aco, I don't need that wood board so do whatever you want with it.

IMPORTANT!
When you turn a weapon into an Ego, it reverts to BASE STATS OF THE WEAPON!  If you ego an r1 crafted or a store-bought common, the ego will be identical.

Save your good weapons for regular upgrades.  Donryu.

It's less that and more that Ego Weapons have their own base stat, which is irrelevant when compared to the weapon they actually inhabit.
