    You should never craft the resources, always gold. This is a common misconception. See my FAQ here: https://www.arcgames.com/en/forums/neverwinter#/discussion/1265786/wonders-of-gond-event-math-faq (shameless plug B) )

    Crafting gold means work (selling gold, inventory management, etc). Crafting resource means clicking "deliveries" once a while.

    Both methods work.. It really depends on your level of dedication.. I do both.. Some people craft gold to buy the mats.. or sell it.. I prefer to craft +1s so I can get 100% Focus. you can get to 100% Focus without +1s but not with all crafters so it's just a numbers game.. I want +1 results in the end which means more goodies.

    The best part of this event is just seeing your entire supply of mats go up in smoke in days.. all those weeks of preparing.. just GOND =p and you're left with more clicking!

    It really is a great event and if you sell gold, mats, the sprockets or the bags.. you'll make some good AD!

    Do you happen to know if Dab Hand affects the outcome of sprocket generation?

    Dont believe dab hand works, best to go with miracle worker for instant for this.

    Dab hand only double material. Not end product.

    I'm trying mostly to earn a 2nd, or perhaps a 3rd Forgehammer of Gond; just no luck yet despite having won 7-9x of the alternative Gond Artifact. I will likely try a little bit more today, yet may have to break down and perhaps get one off AH.

    One dropped after 1000bags for me, boreworm drops more often it feels.. but they do drop!

    Hmmm, I opened far fewer bags (maybe 150-200) and it looks like I was very lucky to get 2 forgehammers, but very unlucky to get no mounts at all. All the apparatus you got... did any include the bore worm? Or no bore worm at all in almost 900 bags?

    No bore worm for me but I got the bore worm in the last Gond event and it is account wide. I don't know if that has any effect.

    @plasticbat
    Just out of curiousity, how many hours of clicking would you say it takes to make that many bags?

    Many hours. I lose count. I was doing that while watching tv. I aligned all the buttons so that I don't have to click and watch most of the time.
    Frankly, this event is not as good as I hope it would be. For me, this is an experiment to check out some stuff to prepare for other potential nerf. Most (if not all) of the stuff earned this time, I don't really care. Now, they are just another pill of hoards.
    If I have to rank them, the stuff that may be useful are: p-ward and insignia (for insignia dust).

    Anyone know why vendor didn't stick around for last chance for 1 week, like he has in the past?

    You and @plasticbat were both lucky, that fact you got 2 though is extremely rare. I would have liked just 1, and wasn't successful.

    I got two last time and I made a lot less bags than this time. Probably, only 200. They are just stashed in my hoard.
    My signature tells you how to get them. :)

    Yea I'm familiar with that, it's cause I actually wanted one. I mean I do have 1 on a character, just had hoped for 1-2 more...
