How to best get your wings is hard to sum up. But I can give you a few pointers at least.
Before we start remember that:
- You should get into Lanfar and build an Inn at your home before you worry about getting any wings
- For a gold wing you need copper wings for all 3 skills in your profession.
Now if you followed the earlier lessons and got yourself into Lanfar and then built an inn, you have probably lvled your skills a bit already 20-25 range somewhere most likely. Probably you have hit a bit of a lvling wall too. Many of the skills have rather high jumps in the 20-30 range. There's two things you can do. Get yourself a better tool, +30 or more, or buy a potion that gets you to 26 and get the copper wing, then recruit a t2 companion to get you more skill.
For the golden wing you will need it all.
- A good tool at least +30.
- A t2 companion.
- A 4-carat ring for your profession (your unlikely to find 2-3 carat as they still take a lot of skill to make, so jeweller's stick to making only 4 carat rings for lvling up).
The big problem at this stage off course is money. How do you get money for that extremely costly tool, building an inn etc. The easy answer is lvl up on things you can sell only, this off course isn't really a very helpful answer. Have a look at the game guide for your profession, check out the market and check what stuff you could potentially sell for a good profit.
Always think of getting a skill up. Don't do something just to earn money unless you absolutely have to. It's better to spend 3 gold on a potion that makes you able to skill up and start doing something more advanced than to spend a long time making something with a low chance of skillup that you can't even sell. On the other hand, when you can skill up on something you can sell then use that for all it's worth untill you have no chance of lvling.
Now for the more specific advice I will try to give some advice for each profession. This will take some time to finish. I hope the other elders can help me out here on any profession they know well.
Stone
Masonry you can earn a lot of money on, but the demand is for very specific types (marl-slate-marapis) and you need so many blocks that I don't recommend to try taking masonry to 40 first. That leaves us with stonecutting/extracting. For stonecutting you can get a lot of lvls just by cutting the lumps you make. If you do well at dungeons you can get a lot of rare lumps that can help you lvl at higher lvls, but more likely you will be making statues/sculptures and grindstones and there's not much that sell well besides the statues
The big problem for stoners is that you can't extract right from a camp in Lanfar like you could in Hawkoria. However this makes for very good profit margins. As soon as you get into Lanfar, even before you get yourself an Inn you want to make a quarry in shortblades mountains. There you can extract marapis with labourers and get 1 gold per block. Then you just follow the guide and level up on gems by making mines
If you can defeat 50+ stat kind of foes do the scepter quest.
