✭✭✭✭It's what, 800k per ring to upgrade if you buy the mats (on PC NA anyway)?
Follow your gold grind of choice (new DLC furniture plans or motifs are perennial solid choices, as is mat farming).
If you are trying to grind up the mats organically, good luck. The grind is insane.Thrice Empress, Forever Scrub1 -

✭✭✭✭✭The price to do it is outrageous and the stat increase, miniscule.

✭✭✭✭✭Heck, just getting enough purple grains to upgrade blue jewellery is bad enough... I blew over 600k AP on Potentiates boxes, and only managed to upgrade one (1) Mother’s Sorrow ring... I should have just kept grinding dolmens.

✭Not worth it IMO. I'm still using blue jewelry on a few pieces. Once the prices come down, or ZOS realized the mistake they made by requiring 10X the mats on jewelry, I may upgrade mine.3 -

✭✭✭✭✭You might be confusing a want with a need. haha Curious what set you are talking. If you have deep pockets, knock yourself out, but there is no greater waste of gold currently.8 -
Jimmy_The_Fixer✭✭✭✭✭Golding your jewelry will increase your damage/healing/defense/whatever by a tiny fraction of 1% and cost an absurd amount of money.
Minmaxxing is the heart of MMORPGs, but just this once, let it go, it's not worth the effort.Edited by Jimmy_The_Fixer on June 26, 2018 12:41AM4 -

I hate to laugh at your Sorrow but you can get purple MS rings for way cheaper than that investment6 -

Just wait another month or two, hopefully prices will go down for chromiumonly worth it if you run infused jewelry
Why? Infused affects the enchantment only, not the stats of the jewelry

Max stats are still almost the best, they are the best for magic and infused only beats max Stam by like 1-2%. So I have no idea what makes @ErMurazor think what they do.1 -
jaschacasadiob16_ESO✭✭✭✭✭I have two rings I want need to upgrade to gold...
And this pretty much explain the prices.
Ice on the cake: OP, just like 99% of the people complaining, do not even understand this."Yesterday while searching a barrel in vVoM I found a lemon. Best drop of the whole run."
Protect the weak. Heal the sick.
Treasure the gifts of friendship. Seek joy and inspiration in the mysteries of love.
Honor the Earth, its creatures, and the spirits. Use Nature's gifts wisely. Respect her power. Fear her fury.1 -
NewFordOrder✭✭✭Weapon dmg enchant on purple infused jewelry is 262, and on gold is 276. So the damage difference is 828-786=42.2 -

What are the odds ZOS buffs gold jewelry to make jewelry crafting more appealing?

Fischblut✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭I used to dream about upgrading many jewelry to gold... before we got patch notes and PTS
After a month since early release I got only 2 legendary platings - it will take me few years to get enough gold mats to upgrade 1 jewelry piece 
So with sadness I just sold those mats and plan to sell them from now on. Jewelry crafting, so inspirational... 3 -

schwarzman1✭✭✭My plan was to buy gold jewelry from the Golden and decon for the gold mat, until I found it doesn’t even guarantee a plate let alone a dust upon decon. Even at max crafting level with all passives.Edited by schwarzman1 on June 26, 2018 8:03AMPS4 NA AD

@LumbermillOverlord , you know economies are different between console and PC, and that purple Mother’s Sorrow rings go for 50k gold on average?
I JUST LOL’D.
I PVP regularly, so AP isn’t a problem for me. Gold is, though.
