What is the approx. mat cost for that High Elf style?
Can you craft to Purple/Gold at V1-V2 or is it Blue?
What is the normal/avg tip to pay a guild member for that?
It will take a 100 stack to make a full set of armor at that level.
It will take 2 Greens, 3 Blues and 4 Purple Tempers to improve to Purple quality. This is per item. So, 20 Greens, 30 Blues and 40 Purples total for a full set of armor and two weapons.
Add in the Trait Gems.
Style Stones are cheap.
So, go shopping, add up all the replacement costs for the materials. Then add in at least 1000 gold for each crafting station they need to visit, you should have an idea of how much it should cost. And why most people craft their own gear.
Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.
