What to craft to get relic fragments?

[Ultima]

I always use copper hammers>gold ingots>war cleaver= frags!

This method seems viable and worthwhile however it didn't work so well for me when crafting a Guardian's Axe.

wow, much better with frostwood, got 45 relic frags with burning 3 heartwood saws.

Crafting what item? Bokuto?

[Canuker]

I can't believe there isn't a market for those saws.  I would have thought you could have just sold them and bought the relics or the hammers/gems for a better return.  If you have more on Napa give me a yell.

Heartwood saws are pretty worthless these days.. 2mil and under i reckon.

[Canuker]

I see 50 relics going for 2 mil on some shards.  I'd have burnt the charges on heartwood stuff....but that's just me I guess. 

I just searched for saw's, worthless.

So, I just came upon a bag of DC/Shadow/Copper runic hammers...what's the best thing to burn to get the max amount of resources (so that I can train up imbuing finally)??

yes,Bokuto. It uses fewest board and high success rate.

I am on Formosa shard, and nobody want to buy runics kits now....

I'd say anything with "mage armor" with ag or better ingots should be what you want to do.

Mage armor from SE armor doesn't count towards unravelling I'm pretty sure.

DC I think was the best bet for most hammers since it gives you a few adds and increases the durability, plus its cheap!

Ultima, if you are wanting to get ingredients to train imbue, I would start with a toon you can make bows or bokuto with and unravel a ton of oak weapons.  This is cheap, will train up imbue and give you the residue you need to train up the rest of the way. 

Save the hammers to use to make elemental weapons.

What paul said. there are several post in here from Paul and myself on what stats and what level we where able to get to on gains before having to do something else. I believe I trained up to 80 ish in imbue using my residue maker.

I'm good to go...

I have a 120 Artificer on 4 Shards thanks to both your scripts. And about 500k in Residue thanks to the SCEC.

I was just curious about the return of relic fragments from frostwood as well as the Knight's Cleaver +Copper Hammer + Gold Ingots.

Knight's Cleaver +Copper Hammer + Gold Ingots worked.
Guardian Axe + Copper Hammer + Gold ingots didn't.

[manwinc]

Pretty sure that with a copper hammer and a knights war cleaver you are better off trying to get the multiplier from valorite ingots than adding on the adds from gold and getting that multiplier. Fewer adds, so have to make what adds you have count!

[baldielocks]

My last runs, when i was trying to write a relic / essence / residue script, indicated that there is no cost effective way to reliably create relics.

You CAN get a ton using bronze or higher with valorite ingots, DC ingots, and gold ingots. Gold hammer is by far the best, easiest to get and yields about 2.2 relics per charge.

There is a dependable process for enchanted essence, both with woods and ingots. Need access to queens forge.

On most shards the cost of creating relics with Knights Cleaver/ Guardian Axe is about the same if you figure the going rate for the gems and ingots involved.  Its not a positive gold conversion ratio at current market, but if you need relics and mine a lot, you can make them with the stuff you mine.  Ingots sell well enough, but gems often take longer. It can be a good way to increase your through-put by diversifying even thought the rate is not a plus.
