don't bother, level 50 jewelry crafting will do you no good.. it require 10 times more mat to craft and upgrade...

Crafting a 160 ring requires 100 Platinum Ounces. Which may sound a little extreme, given the 150 only costs 10 ounces... but then, you may recall, all 160 gear has that x10 inflation.
Upgrading to green costs 2 bars (with the appropriate passive)... so, yeah, exactly 10 times the investment you'd need to upgrade a normal white to green. /s
Upgrading to blue costs... wait for it... three bars.
Purple costs four bars.
Gold costs eight bars... why does this sound familiar? Oh, right, because it is.
The only wrinkle is you get dust when you refine raw mats, and dust is refined into bars. It'll take a bit more work, but it's certainly doable.
one question ..does every character in your roster have fully golden gear? i ask because i don't...
and do you get bars directly?

p.s. am not sure about you, but i ain't gonna waste my time and effort on this mindless grind. it take way less time to just do trial and get your gold jewelry directly. not to mentioned that they are introducing superior equipment in veteran hard mode, it will be superior to anything you can craft. so basically you just waste tons of time and end up with inferior gear
If u have ic you can farm telvar and buy rings and necklace from trophy valts. Also ap from pvp and buy rings i think they are 20k ap

Golding out your jewelry is, primarily, a prestige thing. It really doesn't matter. Golding out your armor is mostly a prestige thing.
The offical made it very clear, you will never get bars directly. you always get dust. and there is a video regarding decon golden jewelry. most of the time you end with nothing, and when you are lucky you get 1 dust back. decon 100 ring and you might have enough to upgrade one piece of jewelry to gold if you are extremely lucky.starkerealm wrote: »Since reading is, apparently, hard, here you go.

That's the thing about this. The only reason to chase gold jewelry is for the prestige factor. Exaggerating and saying, "it requires more to craft," is deliberately misleading.
I mean, probably a great moment for the players who legitimately can't clear vet content, but, it's still going to be a stupid prestige thing. Probably cheaper than buying from The Golden, though.
And, yeah, the prospect of running two 5pc crafted sets is the real payoff here. For that, you really only need purple for endgame content.
and it is not a prestige thing, it will get more people ready for trial..

A few quests also have jewelry rewards, especially in the main quest. So I'm not advancing any of my alts further in the main-quest story line until Summerset starts.

No. It won't.
I understand where you're coming from, but if they weren't ready for trials before, upgrading their gear to gold will not magically elevate them to ready to run vet trials. You can, absolutely run trials in full purple... yes, even weapons. Yes, I've done it, on vet. Yes, I should have upgraded my weapons, but I didn't care enough to bother because... wait for it... oh, right, because your gear does not matter nearly as much as you seem to think it does.
Now, I'm happy that people are thrilled to be getting gold jewelry in zone. It's a cool moment. I'm not even tempted to take that away from them, but the difference between purple and gold jewelry is so marginal it will not matter, when it comes time for them to try to run a vet dungeon, much less vet trials.
It is the player who clears the content, not their build. Yes, your build can help, but it will not carry you through. ESO is not that kind of an MMO.

so you can do veteran trial with white gear? for people lacking the skill and knowledge of the game, gear help a ton.
true gear doesn't do that much, but it remove the excuse from learning. once they hit gold they know what they need to do, instead of blaming on equipment.
p.s. if it does not matter then why are people spend so much effort farming for gold jewelry? imo it help alot before you hit 20k dps. but after you hit 40k or more they don't do as much.
p.s. it is player who clear the content? please tell me if you can reach decent dps without weave and only white gear.
Right now just make sure you have all 3 traits of healthy, arcane and robust for both rings and necklaces. You can use those to learn traits from and make basic jewels for 3-trait crafted sets. Everything else, wait for Summerset and it's a grind.
Head to Auridon and leave the city. Make your way to the platform where the Jester's Festival participants gather.swifty3174 wrote: »In your opinion, what is the best way to farm Jewellery?

I think you may have misunderstood what I said. Let me use smaller words so this is, hopefully clear to you. If you cannot clear a vet trial with full purple gear, you will not be able to clear it in full gold gear.
Getting your gear to gold does not make you trial ready.
You know what the difference between a character with full purple Hunding's Rage and full gold Hunding's Rage is?
11 weapon damage.
Your average stam DPS should be rocking someplace north of 2k, and you're crying over 11 weapon damage. Except... it gets better.
You know what the difference between someone who has 5pc of GOLD hunding's, and someone who has 3pc of purple hunding's jewelry, with two pieces in gold?
7 weapon damage.
You're, literally, crying about 7 weapon damage on that combo. And other bonuses are similar. Again, we're talking about less than 20 points of stam or magicka. Around 1 or 2 points to recovery.
You are crying about stat differences that are so marginal, you cannot see them unless you write down your stats first.
The only thing you should worry about upgrading is your weapon. And that's only because the actual damage stat on your weapon, not your set bonuses, your actual damage stat, increases by a little over 200. That matters. Having gold jewelry? It doesn't, at all.
