usually only need trait research for your own crafter/ability to reconstruct gear
could probably make more money selling the mats directly than gear crafting for people
the only way to make OK money with crafting is to craft nirnhoned research items, but you would still need the nirncrux and realistically its easier to just sell the nirncrux directly
i have my main house (grand topal hideaway) listed in the housing tours, it has multiple target dummies, scribing altar, and grandmaster stations (in progress being filled out), as well as almost every antiquity furnishing on display to preview them
The best way of getting gold from research is the improved drop of master writs, they're selling really well right now. It's not much of a money maker on It's own. Can't remember the last time I was asked to craft anything, maybe a pvp set a year or two ago?
I like to start mine with nirn and get it out of the way early but it doesn't matter much. The traits you'll want to transmute/reconstruct gear with are good to do earlier
People dont pay much for trait items. To many crafters give them away.
However knowing traits is still beneficial when you go to Transmute or Rebuild. Or, make your own sets. If avoid the two or three trash traits you can learn all you need in short time
Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.
