... ( 1-2 a day is a lot for me, I dont know maybe other people think thats little)
What Kiyo said.
It's cheapest to gather everything yourself, but it also takes forever. Run through Towns getting the most expensive flower/trash-of-the-timeslot, and then buy the cheaper more common stuff. Fish if the price goes above 300-350 per fish, or whatever your limit might be. Buy what you are tired of farming. I try to keep the component spending price to about 50K per Cache and that's still a profit on most (on all if you sell the Cache unopened, or everthing but currently Sapphire if you open it).
How long did it take you to get to level 10?
I took it pretty slow because I was trying to do it cheaply, and it took 4-1/2 months. This was from the middle of last September till the end of January, so it was before the Cache changes.
I see, 4 and a half month seems fast to me. I am working on it every day, but it seems like it will take forever.
Right now the biggest problem for most people is finding the right formulas. Partly in deciding which are easiest, but also just being able to buy them. It can help to look ahead to the next level and keep an eye on what's available for that. And if Caches seem to take too long, find other ways to finance buying them? Play lots of Booty Grab. Or play zOMG in Village Greens and pick up those items for free, plus gold, plus charge orbs for making Orb Aggregate. Remember that even though the Cache gives you a bigger profit all at once, Orb Aggregate is still a steady way to nearly double your gold.
Mostly, this site is supposed to be for -fun-. If you're getting stressed out and frustrated and disappointed, that's not fun! Take a break if it seems too much. You're not going to lose your XP, and you can pick up Alchemy again anytime. You'll get to Level 10 if you want, but it doesn't really matter if it takes 2 months or 4 months or a year, right?
