Jewelery crafting. Just fpr improving items?

Tapio75 · March 2020

Hey. I have not found a single set I can craft on the jewellery table on crafting locations. It seems all that I can do is craft basic rings or upgrade droåpped jewellery. Naturally deconstruct and research too, but are the all sets excluded from jewellery crafting? I mean the system for me feels a vit lame, since I can jusrt grind some more to get the items on quality I want and much cheaper.

Whats the point of jewellery crafting for you?

hello, it seems you might not understand how jewellery crafting works my friend.

You must research the traits and level up the skill tree before you can craft a lot of the sets

The only issue with jewellery crafting is that the purple and gold plating is either very hard to grind or very expensive to buy !

You have to go to the set crafting locations and use the jewelry stations there...just like any other set crafting without attuned stations.

I just use it for daily crafting,and rarely master writs.It's not worth upgrading jewelry unelss you got tons of gold,reallly want/need it,and don't mind huge loss in mats if set gets nerfed and you decon(you only have a chance to get 1 grain,unlike gear which you can get a full temper mat).Always best to use a crafted armor set(purple unless you want the small amount of extra points for bonus),and drop set jewelry in purple,and upgrade weapon to gold.Also getting the traits to research is a pain,unless you buy,then it can get a little expensive,and takes a long time like gear researching.

In order to craft set jewelry you need to have researched the required number of traits, for example 6 for Hunding, 9 for New Moon Acolyte etc. If you don't have enough traits researched, even if you visit a crafting station for one of those sets, it won't show the set pieces you can craft. It's identical to how other crafts work.

Crafting is not something you can rush. Time eventually passes. If you put in the daily effort to do trait research, writs, surveys, and work farming here and there into your game play, eventually mats acquire. Learning to sell will net you plenty of gold. Hell, even just doing daily writs on 7 characters will net you a million gold a month. It just takes time...which as I said, eventually passes whether you like it or not.

Are you going to set specific jewelry crafting tables like Julianos for example? If you are trying to craft Set pieces like Julianos, New Moon and others you have to visit those specific tables to craft them. Or you can go to someones house where they may have used Attunable crafting stations to clone a specific set.

I have New Moon Acolyte in my home for example so I can craft New Moon from there.

Tapio75 · March 2020

I see. It seems to work like any other crafyting which is what I assumed.

But the confusion is, that while I can craft ashen grip for example, or Julianos for that matter and go the jewellery station there, it always says no craftable items found, just what it used to say way back when I started the other crafting system. So if I undewrstood correctly, if I have 4 traits researched on a ring for example, I should be able to craft ashen grip for example, but what I don't get is why there is nothing to craft if I meet the requirements, unless I require some skill that I did not need for cloth crafting for example.

I guess its better to take a bit more look in to this system. Having patience is not a problem for me. I don't play that often, but I have been developing my equipment crafter since launch so it may take time for me, but eventually I get what I need

I guess im too hyperactive of sorts to grind one stuff at the whole time. Aall these things tend to come in side of normal adventures. Then again I often walk from place to place

Maybe this is a dumb question... but are there only 3 discover-able traits on jewelry? I haven't found any more jewelry with unique traits, outside of the first three.

Prrasha · March 2020

He says "on crafting locations", so I assume he's at the set-crafting tables.

I'd guess he doesn't have enough jewelcraft traits researched for the set he's trying to craft.

Apart from the 3 basic ones: Healthy, Arcane, Robust there are 6 more, but the items for research come from other sources, not normal drops:
- Protective: exemplary jewelry from finishing the quest lines in Summerset
- Infused, exemplary jewelry found randomly in Psijic portals, pretty common drop
- Swift: exemplary jewelry drops from daily jewelry crafting writs, only at maximum tier, drop rate is pretty low.
- Bloodthirsty: exemplary jewelry can drop in the weekly trial quest coffer
- Harmony: exemplary jewelry can drop from undaunted crates, drop rate is pretty low
- Triune: exemplary jewelry can drop from the daily quests in Cyrodiil: Capture 3 towns, Capture 3 keeps, Kill 40 players, Capture 9 resources, only the first one turned in each day will have a chance for such a piece of jewelry

Or you can buy jewelry crafted by other players who have researched the traits and put items for sale as research samples.

@Tapio75
If you can, take screenshots of your Research tab for Rings so we can see how many Traits you actually have researched. The only reason you would get a message about no craftable items found is if you don't have the mats or don't have the minimum number of researched traits required. That being said nake sure you have the amount and type of mats you need for the level you're trying to craft.

@Scion_of_Yggdrasil
There are seven or eight Traits for JC, icr how many exactly. The Traits for Health, Mag, and Stam you find everywhere. Iirc you get a ring or necklace after/during the Summerset main quest to research, and you can find Exemplary jewelry in Psijic Rifts or whatever they're called I think. For the most part tho, you have to rely on others to craft you a jewelry piece with certain Traits because those won't drop as Exemplary (can't remember which ones tho, my JC research has been done for a while now).

Turly. expect to spend 6 months before you start getting 9 traits on wood and jewls... longer for cloths and metals

Not really. Takes around 4 months with 4/4 Lapidary research, and 8 months without any point in that passive. Lapidary Research only reduces the time needed to research but you can only research 1 item at a time, as opposed to other crafts, where having the corresponding passive fully invested in lest you research 3 items. On the other hand you only have 2 items, as opposed to 6 for Woodworking and 14 for Clothier & Blacksmithing.

I know how it works,and know all traits.And I sell and make 500-1m a week jsut in trader sales.I'm jsut saying for ppl thinking it'l be a quick easy money it's not.Selling dropped gold pieces from BG or something,or ones from the golden in cyro can be profitable.It's also not profitable to upgrade jewelry to gold for selling,when total mat cost is ~450k+(free for mat farmers,but takes a long time) and gold pieces sell for ~150-200k or less.Just letting ppl know,crafting/upgrading gold jewlery is mostly for ppl already flooded with gold and mats wanting their personal gear better,not really for the casual trader trying to make gold.

The only issue with jewellery crafting is that the purple and gold plating is either very hard to grind or very expensive to buy !

And researching the traits is just how crafting all set pieces have worked since the game launched. Each set has a specific number of traits that need to be researched.

The biggest benefit of jewelry crafting is being able to change traits since upgrade materials are rare and costly.

Jewelry crafting was added to the game almost 2 years ago now. It was designed to add more so players had something else to grind towards if they wanted top quality gear.

tigerborn62 · March 2020

Sorry. Dumb question, but do you have the trait material for the jewelry you are trying to craft?

Tapio75 · March 2020

Issue resolved. I updated some addons for UI I had for better functionality. As a side effect, the jewellery items became available for he traits I had. I had also remembered wrong the amount of traits needed for the location where I was (Vaampires kiss). I am 1 trait short for that, but that's soon rectified because I have that ring from Summerset I can research and get it opened too. Thanks for all the helpful replies people
