Crafting Tips

✓ Level two complementary professions (e.g., Mining + Blacksmithing) ✓ Sell excess materials - don't hoard everything ✓ Learn market prices before crafting expensive items ✓ Join a guild with crafting bonuses ✓ Focus on profitable niches rather than crafting everything

❌ Don't vendor crafted items - marketplace is usually better ❌ Don't rush to 300 - profit while leveling ❌ Don't craft without researching material costs vs. selling price ❌ Don't ignore world drop recipes - they're often the most valuable
