read somewhere that if you craft the same items a lot of times the stats will get better.
not sure how true is that, I stop at the fifth times because it all sucks lol

YTD I dropped a +6 grand exalted chestplate.
1st TRY craft made a decent 3socket one, sold for 1mil immediately (I shouldn't put buyout cry.gif ).
Next 20 PROPER CRAFT never had that luck, all not as good as the 1st try. Now putting BuyOut 200k just to recover cost. Hopefully can sell some to recover cost, tonight go back and see.

It's a total waste of time and whenever my barb visit the blacksmith it's to salvage crap Lvl59 legendary items for brimstone and Lvl61 magic items for its exquisite essence to be sold in (g)AH.

For me, it's too random to be profitable. I crafted more than 5 batches of 5 units each, first one was complete failure, second one yields me about 3mil profit total, 3rd, 4th, and 5th complete fail as well. In the end I lose more than I earn sweat.gif

luck dependence, I craft 10 boots with 5 random properties previously
2 able to sold
1 for 1.7mil and another 1.4mil

my cost is only 500k with 10 sets of materials.

Indeed, its just another gambling way alike Diablo 2 laugh.gif

Not worth it, the gear you craft is ilvl62 (class specific ones are worse at 61). Most of the legendaries suck too. With increased MF from paragon levels everyone gets more rares as well, which explains why prices are dirt cheap for anything that isn't close to best in slot.

I have crafted only 5, but i got 1 which sold for 19mil. Haha Untung edy scared then nvr craft anymore.

It was a 800+ dps with loh 900, base crit 40 with 1 socket. Kinda weird as it does not have dex but its good i guess for someone.

the only item worth crafting as of now is swords/daggers imo . i crafted alot and sold a lot too . max weap sold was 40m+/30-40$ .

the decent ones around 1-5m still ok just to cover cost . anyway, its still gambling.

I crafted over 150 6 props pants. So far, made 30++m, highest one sold is 13m.

IMO, if you want to craft item, please don't buy the mat, it make the cost too high to gain any profit. Just salvage and get the mats.
