    It can also come from profession packs obtained from lockboxes.

    Rarely from profession nodes. I've gotten on as a mob drop too. Anything that drops profession stuff can drop them, but they're very rare.

    I dropped once from a boss on a leveling quest, I could'nt believe my eyes. It was on the neverdeath graves, but it was my luckiest drop ever...

    I got one from a mob in old CN xD The very first pull int he instance. Saw a screen of some1 getting it from a foundry quest heh. But yeah tiamat/proff packs. Tymora event used to drop it like candies but that got nerfed.

    You say they are expensive? They are about 15k/ea right now. They used to be a lot more.

    I'm probably HAMSTER someones business model right now, but they should be no more than the cost of a mechanical altar. If you buy Mechanical Altars (10k for 10 on the AH right now), and you only use it when doing your last invoke, you get 5 bags and 1 Dragon Egg, No RNG involved. So, about 1K per egg.

    15k each dragon egg + 2 elemental aggregate(4k each)=23k, you sell an adamant ring at 43k, your net income is 20k if you manage to make one gemmed

    If you craft 3 rings at a time, total cost is 23k x 3= 69k, to be able to profit you would have to craft 2 gemmed out of the 3

    If you only craft one gemmed you lose 63k - 43k= 20k

    so yes they are expensive

    Relax, I didn't say you were wildly wrong. Just that they used to be 3-4x the current price.

    Also, it might be more correct to say that the *risk* of making gemmed rings can be expensive.
    And an 87% profit isn't bad, considering the risk. I wonder what is considered 'worth it' these days?

    Finally, if you can get the Mechanical Altars going, your profit just went up, and your loss on *only* crafting one ring went down. Enjoy!

    Isn't the profit margin a bit better on level 70 shirts and pants? They seem to sell for 80K-200K, depending on the type of shirt/pants. And while you lose a slot for a few days, it seems better to make the aggregate than buy it if you are pinching pennies.

    I do like the business model suggestion though--I wondered what to do with those mechanical altars.

    Theres no problem with pants and shirts:
    unified element 25k + dragon egg 13k= 38k, you craft 3= 114k
    If you manage to sell 1 at 100k its fine (they are at 80k now but it goes up.)

    ITs kind of cool but you need to invest more money and I dont have the assets

    But im going to try it out and buy them, lets see!

    The only female dragon in Neverwinter is Tiamat ...

    Dr Ray Stantz: It's a girl.
    Dr. Egon Spengler: It's Gozer.
    Winston Zeddemore: I thought Gozer was a man.
    Dr. Egon Spengler: It's whatever it wants to be.
    Dr. Peter Venkman: Well, whatever it is, it's gotta get by us.
    Dr Ray Stantz: Right!
    [pause]
    Dr. Peter Venkman: Go get her, Ray!

    Tiamat is whatever it wants to be.

    Mechanical Altars are ~30k for 10. Not 10k. They are under consumables.

    They were 10K when I checked. Lots of 'em. Someone must have bought them, and relisted. I should have thought of that. :neutral:
