    Yes, but the amount of ore you will spend to do the Writ in the first place makes it (at best) a zero sum game.

    Consumable writs are worth doing.

    Blacksmithing, Clothing and Woodworking Writs?

    Absolute, complete waste of time. Your net gains over time will always be negative, they're absolutely not worth doing.

    They aren't a waste of time. It's the easiest way by far to get nirncrux. So it's hardly a waste of time. I drop alloys, rosin and wax fairly often too.

    If you have spare mats, bang the writs out.

    Steal items, deconstruct and use the deconstructed materials for the crafting writs. I save all the ore (rarely ever refine unless farming upgrade mats) and I sell the stacks of 200 raw materials for 4-5k per stack of 200.

    Why not refine it yourself? The Ingots will get you 800 if you sell them to a vendor, coul maybe get 10 a piece on a store.

    Plus you have a 1/20 chance to drop something worth 100/500/2k/6k each. And that's very good prices I sell things at (on console. You could easilly get 200/700/3k/8-10k.

    Assuming you have extraction at 3/3, refining it yourself will be the most profit overall

    That's probably true - with regards to the 3/3 extraction passive (which I currently only have 1/3 in all). Once I get to the 3/3 state, I won't be selling stacks of raw material anymore :wink: But, for right now, for me, coin is good.

    Also your going to have to do clothing, woodworking, & blacksmithing writs if you wanna get glass crafting style after Imperial city DLC drops.
    Completing a writ has a chance to drop Page Fragments.
    10 Page Fragments + associated item purchased at a mages guild, transmute into a random page for glass crafting style.

    Do I need to buy DLC to get those drops? Will their be writs higher than the Craglorn writs?

    I am sad that I did so many equipment writs in Craglorn over the past month. I want those mats back!
