PLEASE NOTE: Take the HUGE advantage of utilizing the WvWvW Crafting Buffs. The guides are written on "Over Flow" servers, meaning I received no Crafting Bonuses. If you have the WvWvW buff you might have to skip parts of this guide. Please always remember this is a guide for crafting, and it can only do so much. It will not be perfect for you, critical crafting success makes crafting extremely random.
 
If your crafting critical rate is %15, that doesn't always mean you will get 15 critical out of 100. You could get 150 critical crafts in a row or you could have zero critical crafts for 75 crafts. So I can only provide a strong base to help guide you.
 
This guide cuts it close, because it is the most efficient and cheapest way of crafting. If you can not make it further in the guide, follow the NOTED parts that tell you to craft more. If you have ANY WvWvW buffs at all you should never need to, but the lack of critical Crafts can make this possible. Noted Extra Crafts are there for emergancy.
 
Shopping List Notes:YOU CAN ALTER THE SHOPPING LIST, this is JUST a guide but be advised if you change things it can get nasty quick. You have to make sure whatever you substitute is equivalent to what you are replacing. If the Fine Materials/Tier Materials are for level25 you can only substitute level25 Fine Materials/Tier Materials. Sounds confusing? It easily can be haha that is why you should just follow the guide.
