Making Kinah with Armorsmithing is not one of the easier professions to work with.
For starters it will take hours of hours of hours of recipie crafting and work orders.
In addition Armorsmithing can esily cost an extreme amount of Kinah pumped into it to raise it to a decent level for when it becomes profitable.
Although selling armor for around the mid level 20 region is a good starting point for when players start venturing into the Abyss, the real business opportunities will open up at end game.
'Forge or Spaceship?'
Once you attain 450 Armorsmithing skill and can start crafting the high end armor, it is time to spend many an hour in the Abyss. Being in the Abyss will give you many things needed for the goal of creating the very best. Firstly you are going to need to load up on Divine Power and Aether. Divine power can be gathered from killing the various Balaur monsters in the zone. Always try and work towards controlling as many fortresses as possible as this allows you to buy much more of the rare recipes that are available at this level and up.
In addition it will be necessary to gather more crafting material. This cane take a huge amount of time since many Unique and Legendary items use between ten and fifty materials each.
It is possible to find what you need straight off the market but this will cost alot of money, at times an extreme amount of money.
Once you have gathered all the items you need it is time to use Divine Power to try and proc. higher level armor out of your gathered recipes. This process can be very hit or miss, so it is advised to be at level 450 Armorsmithing already as this way you will minimize waste.
'Work Work Work'
When you have made that super rare armor, unless you want to keep it for yourself :P, you can either sell it on the Trade Broker, your Personal Store or via word of mouth. You have to be aware that it can take a long while at times to sell armor because there is always a limit on the market. Be patient and be realistic about profit margins and you will always attain a good chunk of Kinah in return. Word of mouth can work in several ways well. Being known as polite and helpful can always drive business to yourself and then you can find people to hire your services in advance, at times lowering the drain of your own resources since often people can suplly many materials towards the end product.
In the end, being a well known Armorsmith on your server can lead you down the path of fame and riches, but patience and diligence in your work will always play a key factor.
