Age of Conan Gold is the most important for every player in the game. The sheer volume of craft able items here is staggering. The best thing you can do for yourself is to train in mining, prospecting, stonecutting, and weaving and progress these as soon as possible. Once you have the ability to gather whatever you could possibly need, crafting will be a breeze. The biggest problem you might run into is the gathering of silks and leathers. The silks drop from humans and the leather obviously drops from animals, both can be elusive! Rough leather will drop off of prey animals. This was the biggest help in the early days of crafting armor! Prey runs away if you get too close so you will need ranged combat of any kind to kill these guys but they are very weak and drop in one hit for most players. Gem cutting will be undergoing changes soon, though we are not sure what exactly this will mean yet. Currently, crafting gems is largely a guessing game. When you cut any one gem, you will randomly get any one of several effects on the finished gem. This can be quite frustrating if you are trying to craft for a specific effect and only have a handful of preciously rare flawless gems. Gems drop off of any level appropriate human, so farm as much as you can and whenever you can to keep a stockpile.
