So I've finally hit 900 SC (912 now actually) and am in the position to actually do some SC for people.

Here's the framework:

1) Templates MUST be submitted in SC format, which means it contains gem names, eg:

Imbue Points: 37.0 of 32 (100 Qual) Overcharge: 38%
Gem 1: 4 Axe - 99 flawed Earthen War Rune
Gem 2: 22 Constitution - 99 precious Earthen Essence
Gem 3: 9 Energy Resist - 99 polished Light Shielding
Gem 4: 7 Heat Resist - 99 imperfect Heated Shielding

SCing takes a bit of time as it is, and I'm not going to spend more converting all your +stats and skills into gem names. You can get an SC calc here:

http://www.craftsage.com/

Look for the Korts one down in the page a bit.

You can submit templates by either posting them in this thread, or PMing them to me.

2) Please don't send me tells about SCing in game. Guild RvR comes before SCing, and asking me if I'm going to SC, am SCing, or WHEN I'm going to SC gets you bumped to the bottom of the list :). When I'm SCing, I'll log on, look at who's next in line for SC and online, send them a tell and see if they want SCing or not, and if not, will move to the next person on the list.

3) You have to be available for your SC to be done. By available, I mean within 5 minutes of it being finished, you can swing by with the gear for imbue. If I have to wait more than 5 minutes after completion, then I'll simply sell the gems, and you get to find another SCer. I don't want to be waiting 30 minutes with my inv full for someone to finish a DS run, or die in RvR. If you are going to do that, be ready to drop your group to get your SC.

4) I won't imbue items when you are not there. Too much drama comes outta this. If an item explodes, I mix up gems, or someone steals your item from whereever you put it, it just causes endless headaches.

5) You are ultimately responsable for the SC. When I SC your gear, it will be in a trade window, and all gems will be visable. If it explodes, or I accidentally put the wrong gem on the wrong piece, then its your fault :) Have your SC sheet handy so you can double check it.

6) Its not free. I've already spent around 15p on getting it up to 900+, and I'm not going to spend more on paying for materials. That being said, there are two ways to pay:

Items: If you can get me any of these items, you get a full suit of SC in return. The full suit can include anything you like, including multiple weapons you swap out for various stuff or whatever.

Maleficent Darkspire Vest
Maleficent Darkspire Sleeves
Darkspire Bracing Mace
Maleficent Darkspire Adroit Cloak
Darkspire Adroit Gem
Maleficent Darkspire Belt
Maleficent Darkspire Adroit Ring
Maleficent Adroit Darkspire Bracer
Maleficent Darkspire Arcane Bracer
Demon Blood Ring
MP Chain helmet
MP Chain gloves
MP Chain legs
MP Chain feet
Darkspire +dur cloth chest
Darkspire +spelldur staff

As I get stuff, I'll take it off the list.

Alternatively, if you really don't want to go into Darkspire, you can pay for it. I'm charging 200g per 5pt OC piece, which is 50% less than the going rate.

Of course, some of you might realize it would be better to simply sell those DS items on your CM, and pay the 200g, but try and remember that I've spent around 100+ hours getting to 900 SC, so running 2 hours in DS in comparison isn't that bad.

On top of that, anyone who can offer up an item will get theirs done before someone paying gold :)

The one exception to this rule is Malus, since he's been generously supplying the guild with potions, so he gets his SC for free. Anyone else who raises up a crafter to a level that can be used by level 50's applies as well (eg, can make L51 gear).

7) If you don't like this, tough. There are quite a few other LGM SCers on the server, and if everyone in the guild uses one of them, thats just fine by me :)

heh not that I care cause I'm not in your guild and all ... But charging your guild 200g a piece to do SC'in?

I'm sorry but that's kinda weak =P I've never really believed in profiting from friends.

considering for a 5pt Oc you need 2 99% and 2 98% gems you can normally make each piece for 40g - 80g as long as you dont go crazy buying alot of the gems at once.

I did my sc and a few other guildies sc with a 918sc'er did theirs at cost and did random orders from poeple i dont know for 400g per piece =P

anyway my 2c :D

Yeah, if I'm not mistaken, an SCer someone else skilled up.

I spent 15-20 hours farming plat (no guild funds were used), and another 50-60 hours skilling up. If 10 people from the guild want 5 pieces each, at the 80g you said, thats 8p to do it for free, which I don't have.

Not to mention:

1) Several other people were supposed to level up trades. Most stopped at 500. I'd be more than happy to "give back to the guild" but frankly, when it comes to in-game items etc, I haven't exactly gotten anything either.

2) If you give someone something for free, they abuse it. By charging a small amount, people will take the time to get it right. Otherwise, I'd be stuck contantly remaking suits.

3) I had no idea how much it cost to SC an item, cheapest price was 300g, some people are charging 1p. I figured 200g was a nice round number.

4) Why are you in these forums anyways?

I'm perfectly happy paying Holden. As he said it was major farming to get there. Anyone with a Legendary crafter is loony imo. ;)

300g per piece is still a bargain imo

yea THIS sc'er was someone elses true but I have done it on a diff server thanks.

And I was not saying do it for free ... just material costs.

If the guild doesn't have a problem with it then by all means go ahead and charge all you want I was just giving my opinion is all.

Why am I on these forums?

cause im BWC 4 LIFE ! I was with them all when they came to merlin ... gun, cele, hall, etc. which I think was the time SI just came out.
