Max level crafting writs - data from the last week

✭✭✭
I have been recording the results of my max level crafting writs for the last week in an effort to decide whether I should continue to do them. I appreciate this is a small sample size so i would be interested in the data anyone else has as well - please post below.
Notes:
- All relevant crafting passives were maxed
- 5 piece bs quest was skipped, as I object to this imbalance and feel it makes no sense to do it.
- Refined mats back are the result of refining mats from surveys.
- Gold tempers back include both those from the container as well as from refining the raw mats from surveys.
- Clothing mats are combined, for the sake of simplicity. Their value in game is fairly similar.
The results are as follows:
Blacksmithing:
8 Writs
COST: 320 Rubedite Ingot
REFINED MATS BACK: 99 Rubedite Ingot
GOLD TEMPERS RECEIVED: 3
G BACK: 5330g
Clothing:
10 writs
COST: 404 mats
REFINED MATS BACK: 195 mats
DREUGH WAX RECEIVED: 4
G RECEIVED: 6658g
Woodworking:
11 writs
COST: 410 Ruby Ash
REFINED MATS BACK: 86 Ruby Ash
ROSINS RECEIVED: 1
G RECEIVED: 7322g
So, over these writs, it cost me:
221 Rubedite Ingots to receive 3 Tempering Alloys and 5330g back
209 Clothing mats to receive 4 Dreugh Wax and 6658g back
324 Ruby Ash to receive 1 Rosin and 7322g back
Using rough resale values from my 14 day MM across 5 large trading guilds
BS:
(221 x 46g) = 10,166g COST
(3 x 10,740g) + 5,330g = 37,550g BACK
Profit c 27,384g
CL:
209 x 70g = 14,630g COST
(4 x 7,588g) + 6,658g = 37,010g BACK
Profit c 22,380g
WW:
324 x 18g = 5,832g COST
(1 x 4,011g) + 7,322g = 11,333g BACK
Profit c 5,501g
SUMMARY/ TL:DR:
So it seems that over this week, the BS, Cloth and WW max level writs have been profitable for me. This is quite a small sample size so I would be careful drawing any firm conclusions but it is interesting. I would be very interested in anyone else's results, so please do share.
What I think we also need to bear in mind is the time that these writs take us. It takes me around an hour to 1hr20 to do all my writs each day.
Cheers,
True

undefeatdgaul✭✭✭very nice, good work that certainly looks promising but Ive seen alot of other posts with FAR worse results. Im too scared of the RNG to try it with that many mats as Im saving for some gear but well done though!0
