I find I make more money off the t=lower pots than the higher pots. Why well because most 300-375 alc are either trying to lvl or discover new potions because its a lot less work then to get exalted with every faction to make a few pots. This is what I make and they are a gold mine


Free Action Potions Sell for 6-10g cant keep them on the ah ( I know low Level  fishing what a pain what I have done is I take newbie’s and make them a deal Ill give you 2.25 for a stack of oily blackmouth 10g for a stack of deviate fish and 5g fore a stack of stonescale 5g for stack of strange kelp.Currently I got 3 people farming the mats for me for some easy cash and 5g for stack of strange kelp.

Wow now I have tons of  mats


Ok let’s make 20 Elixirs of giant growth and sell for 1.25 each (using the deviate fish with the cooking outcome sells for only ~ .75g each I get more sales when I sell individually

Free Action potions (great for WSG getting the flag when the base is well defended) 6-10g stack of 5

I use the Stone scale to make Stone scale potions I farm the Thorium but often see in on the ah for 20-25 g a stack I sell 5 pots for 25g

I used to make the Swiftness pots but the mats seam to cost about as much as I earn and im far to busy to go and farm those low mats better thing do now I am 70

Got a miner alt I do I farm thorium and I get the arcanite crystals make the bars now with the new cd $$ I can’t keep them on the AH

And we haven’t even got into the CD transmutes

Ill make twink pots and sell them or use them

I ge the mats from the Soil sample deals
I Farm the soil while I farm thorium and ill use it every time I rem I put the thing on my bar so I can easily see the CD is up But that gives me the lower lvl mats to make those other pots that I have not intentions of farming the mats for NTM the Morrow grain sells for way 20-25g a stack

I make about 300-500g a day and all I do is make herb casing and craft the pots the rest is waiting in the guild bank for me (I have them deposit the items and with draw what I owe them I give them a 50g max a day) Makes me have to spend less time fig it out I just look over the #’s and make sure the match up

But for real higher some newbie’s most are broke and will welcome the extra cash plus ill buy their greens for twice the vender amount and make good money DE. And as a bonus ill throw them the junk pots I make that may sell but for what ill throw them to my biggest farmers to show my appreciation
