After enjoying a luxurious buffet and earning 50,000 gold coins, Sherlock was quite satisfied with this player exchange meeting.
After returning home and chatting with No. 11, he couldn't wait to get into the game.
Seeing the familiar streets and the players of various races coming and going on the streets, Sherlock's slightly anxious heart instantly calmed down.
As he spent more and more time in the Forgotten Realm, he found that he no longer wanted to leave this world.
Even if this game declines in the future and a better game comes to replace it, he may not choose to leave.
At that time, one person, or two or three people, form a team and wander around every corner of Faerûn like a real adventurer. It may also be a very interesting life.
But it's too early to say this now. Even if you really want to live this kind of life, you have to earn the money you need for the rest of your life.
Sherlock first contacted Sister Tang to learn about the singer's situation. After learning that the mission was going smoothly, he did not rush her.
While his second career change has not yet been settled, he will devote himself wholeheartedly to improving his sewing level.
He hasn't practiced sewing specifically for a long time since he got a certificate in fashion design in Atlas, the mermaid city.
Now the sewing skill is only 22% at level 5, and it is only at level 7 including the sewing three-piece set and Madeleine's gloves bonus.
To make level 50 equipment, you need at least level 9 sewing skills.
The gap between the two levels may not seem far away, but in fact it has blocked 90% of the players.
The improvement of manufacturing life skills is very slow, and the improvement becomes slower the later you go.
Not only because of the exponentially increasing experience value, but also because of increasingly expensive crafting materials.
When you are at a low level, you can make a piece of whiteboard equipment by just cutting a few pieces of cotton cloth. If you add up, your level will always increase.
When you reach level 4 or 5 and need to make level 30 equipment, the most basic piece of cloth costs 800 gold coins. The rest of the magic fluid for drawing the magic circle and the silk thread for sewing are all money.
In total, the production cost of a finished product is nearly 700 gold coins, and if the craftsmanship is poor, it may cost 1,000 gold coins.
However, a piece of cloth armor with level 30 fine quality currently only sells for 500-800 on the market, so it may not be sold.
It can be said that most professional players currently make no money making equipment under normal circumstances, and may even lose money.
Therefore, some players will find ways to become a disciple of a certain high-level NPC.
While working for an NPC, you can also listen to the other person's experience and teachings. There is no cost at all, and you can easily improve your skills.
The disadvantage is that the speed is a bit slower, and there is less freedom, and you still have to look at the NPC's face.
In the eyes of those high-level life NPCs, apprentices have no human rights at all.
There are also some players who are self-sufficient in order to control costs.
Isn’t it just the materials? I can’t produce them myself!
They work from dawn to dusk, farming with a hoe in one hand, killing monsters with a sickle in the other, and collecting usable materials everywhere.
What kind of magic fluid, what kind of cloth and linen cotton, with a pair of hard-working hands, there is nothing you don’t want.
The disadvantage is still that it is slow, and collecting materials takes up a lot of their time and energy.
Sherlock has also taken the second path before.
But things are different now. Now that he has some wealth, he is still willing to spend a little money on materials...
Twilight silk, 2500 gold coins/piece
Sun Hide, 1680 gold coins/roll
Mixed element artificial leather, 860 gold coins/roll
Blood Ramie, 2815 gold coins/horse
Five-color spiritual cloth, 5860 gold coins/piece
…
I'm so sorry for your sister!
Sherlock looked at the materials in the auction house, and his hands couldn't stop shaking as he wanted to click on them to buy.
Let’s not talk about the five-color Yunling Cloth, a special material for the Master, but the slightly inferior Twilight Silk actually costs 2,500 gold coins/piece.
"No, I am a rich man now and can no longer be as stingy as before."
“The investment now is for a more generous return in the future.”
Sherlock kept comforting himself in his heart, closed his eyes, pressed his left hand on his right hand and connected the dots more than a dozen times.
When he opened his eyes again, the gold coins in his pocket had been reduced by 350,000, and a piece of legendary equipment was just spent.
Although I was heartbroken, I bought all the main materials, and naturally I had to buy the other auxiliary materials together.
…
After buying all the materials, Sherlock hid in the private room of the tailor shop and started making equipment.
As a training equipment, it is not cost-effective to use high-grade materials, and the quality of the finished product from low-grade materials is not easy to guarantee, so he finally chose the mid-range Twilight Silk.
Twilight silk is the most suitable material for making cloth armor, and the biggest audience for cloth armor is mages and warlocks.
With the number of mages in the Forgotten Realm, as long as we can build equipment of superior quality, sales should not be a problem.
Pattern making, material processing, cutting, magic pattern engraving, sewing, all done in one go.
Although he hasn't touched needlework for a long time, Sherlock's touch is not unfamiliar at all.
