Resource Breakdown
Gold Ingots (x4): Refined at the Smelter from Gold Ore. Higher mining yields and smelting efficiency reduce costs.
Cut Diamonds (x4): Polished using Stonecutting at level 50+. Diamonds enhance healing, making them perfect for cleric-style builds.
Cut Flawed Diamonds (x3): A lower-tier version of the diamond gem, still useful for stat scaling in early-game accessories.
New World Gold: Needed if you choose to buy resources on the Trading Post or cover crafting taxes.
Best Ways to Get Resources
Gold Ore: Mine from Gold Veins found in mid-level zones like Cutlass Keys and Brightwood.
Diamonds: Farmed from gemstone veins or bought from the market. Salvaging can also provide flawed variants.
New World Gold coins: Earn through quests, farming, or selling extra resources. Many players offset material costs by trading surplus ore and gems.
Why Craft the Gold Cleric Earring
Healing Boost: Diamonds scale with healing abilities, making this accessory a great choice for support builds.
Accessible Level Range: Available at level 20, it bridges the gap between early-game trinkets and higher-tier gear.
Affordable Materials: Gold Ingots and Flawed Diamonds are relatively easy to obtain, making the recipe manageable for new jewelcrafters.
Market Value: Due to its utility, the earring often sells well, offering profit potential for crafters.
Tips
Level up Mining and Stonecutting early to self-supply materials.
