Overview

In this guide we take your Artificing level from 400 to the maximum of 500. If you haven't seen our original Artificing guide, you can find it here. The joy of leveling Artificing to 500 is the fact it's so simple based on the very limited combinations though it is sadly, very expensive.

Please note: It is always recommend that you place Buy Orders for crafting ingredients or components. This will take a period of time to gather them all, but will save you money. I should also stress that this guide places an emphasis on speed, not cost.
