The bad news, however, is that, even with these improvements, a lot of websites still won’t magically turn into speedy experiences. I mean think about it for a second, if you had a bus station and click on a link in your Twitter feed, you wait five seconds.
You wait. 10, you keep thinking. It must be amazing content. If it takes so long to prepare and write, then you get pulled back into reality. A full screen interstitial asking me to buy sunscreen, please, like me, dialog that’s, set to scratch from the content and make the page so small, you can’t even scroll and as if that was enough, a bunch of competing analytics scripts in the background at party hard.
Every second and kill your phone’s battery, or maybe the analytics scripts, just want to stop the phone from suffering and put it out of its misery quickly. I really don’t know in all seriousness, though: all of this wouldn’t be such a big deal for the publishers of those sites. If you were just willing to continue to suffer, but you don’t you’re furious about the current state so furious, then you either don’t bother and click off and studies to just a 40 % of users drop off after just three seconds or decide to install an ad Blocker clicking off is a lose-lose situation.
You are frustrated because you didn’t get to read the article. Your friends post it and publishers are frustrated because they didn’t get a chance to show you other great stuff and relevant ads to help pay to create that free content. An ad blockers might work for you as a reader, but hand the business model of many publishers that depend on ads to help pay for the content offered. But here’s the thing, publishers, obviously don’t – purposely – try to slow down pages.
They add all of these extras to try to increase the monetization of their site and attract more and more readers to help keep the site on business, and then they end up in a tough spot where they feel they need to decide between improving the user experience Or focusing on monetization and user acquisition, these overloaded user unfriendly web sites aren’t a new problem and some have tried to come up with solutions.
The FIR our walled gardens that lock you to a specific content distribution platform. Now you have to implement a custom solution for every single platform and your content cannot be discovered through search engines or link to from other websites by by open web, or you could create a native app and lose even more advantage. The web offers like effortless entry without install or easy distribution of content not terribly attractive either.
We felt this was a problem in need of a simple and elegant solution, a new way to implement an issue, a beautiful, streamlined, wicked, fast content web pages. Without all the extra clutter that is built on the openness of the web and doesn’t try to replace it, it allows everyone to participate and collaborate that publishes platforms and developers all stand behind and benefit from. That’s short.
What accelerated in the open the EM project dramatically improves the performance of mobile sites on the web, often to the point where their load appears to be instant. It’s an open source initiative that relies on existing web technologies and is built in collaboration with many different partners. Many technologies today come with super complicated, build processes, but not so with amp. In fact, an amp 8 is just a normal HTML website with a couple of restrictions and extras no build process, no extra step, because of that it doesn’t require a lot of additional work.
Unlike having to build custom, apps and products for a myriad of platforms and social outlets, in fact, if your website doesn’t use custom JavaScript and is mostly static, you probably don’t even have to create a second version of it for app. Every amp document includes the MJS JavaScript library that delivers optimum performance by adding and validating a few important rules in your markup when looking at an amp document.
The biggest difference you see is that some elements, like the image tag, are replaced with custom elements. That’s done to ensure staying in Fastlane in two critical situations. First, it allows MJS to control the entire load chain and prioritize certain elements and requests over others. In practice. This means that most third-party content and elements below default I’ll load it after the main content arise.
So your users can start reading as soon as possible. Second, ms custom properties strictly required a width, height or other aspect ratio defining attributes to be set. This way, mj’s knows exactly how your page will look like before any assets are loaded and can layout the page. In advance, this prevents the famous flash of unstyled content, the ugliness of a half lured website. That then starts to jump around by loading more stuff, as well as the need to re-render and do additional layout calculations, a browser task that can be very slow.
Every single imitational addition to amp documents is carefully designed to end up the speed of the page 211 and implement rail. A user experience focus performance model, but the chrome team came up with and because MJS comes with a built-in validator that locks to the console. It ensures developers Fastlane as nothing is more frustrating than a speed regression you discovering month later on an end page.
The content is always King and the user experience is Queen no compromises. But if you now say wait, a sec sounds great for users, but how does this help publishers, consider this users love fast content and amp allows platforms like Google, Twitter, Pinterest or LinkedIn to know for a fact that this content is fast, which they can then promise To users in return, if I know it only takes me five seconds to read that article, I do it much more often with many more articles, I’m happy.
The platforms are happy because I’m happy and the publishers is happy because they get to show me more content and just like that everybody wins get started. Writing your first and page today by checking out two tutorials in the description or head directly to am project org to learn more
Com.Au and I amber Mailchimp partner Today, I’m going to cover a very effective email campaign design, that’s simple, to create and converts First just to show that other major organizations use the same layout. Let me show you some examples. First off: let’s look at Disney. This is a recent Disney email campaign that I received I’ll just go through very quickly. What I’m seeing So I’m seeing the logo an image text button.
So typically our email doesn’t contain the full story. We give people a teaser. A few lines of text and we then have a button or a call to action that they go somewhere else, And this is what we would call a newsletter, because it’s more than one story For many organizations, just one article or one story on an email is Sufficient but let’s go back again So we’ve got here and please notice that it’s not full width either.
This email, So logo image text, button, image, text, button, image, text, button, Okay, and this is Disney a very big organization. Let’s look at Toyota, So this is Toyota. Australia sent me this this email There’s quite a bit going on, but but I’ll just show you how it’s very similar to that Disney one that we looked at in layout. So we’ve got logo and I’ll ignore this bit. So logo heading text, button image, They’ve, dropped the image down below and in the separate article I’ll cover.
Why they’ve done this and it’s a great idea? So logo header text button image and then they’ve got more than one story, so they continue with header text button image and it carries on and on and on So they just repeat what they’re doing Now: single-column it’s not even full width, but this is very typical. So the more you look at them, whether they’re, those Uber emails or whatever you receive you’ll notice, this exact layout, where it is logo, heading text, button image, But the image can be up or down, But let’s go into Mailchimp and I’ll.
Show you how to create this very quickly: You’ll notice that I’m in the campaign section or the campaign builder section of Mailchimp, So I’m going to click “, create campaign” to create an email campaign, I’m creating an email campaign, I’m creating a “, regular, campaign” and I’ll. Just name it I could call this anything. I want to and I’ll click “ begin”, I’m not going to use a template. What I’ll actually do is create this using a Mailchimp layout which works really well and then in the future.
I can just copy the campaign and it’ll retain my layout and so on. So I would of course start at the top and work my way down, but for this demo I’m going to click “, design, email” And again, I’m not going to use a saved template. I’r going to use this basic one column template So I’ve clicked on that. I’r in the email campaign builder. I would add my logo at the top. So let me build the blocks Mailchimp’s included in the layout some default blocks, but for now I’ll just show you that I can I’ll just delete the social blocks and there’s actually another horizontal line there, which I’ll just click delete to delete that So those ones we Looked at Disney Toyota logo and then typically, they had an image So logo, image text, Sorry, logo, image, heading text and then we’ll just drag and drop the button across here and there we go Now.
If we had more than one story, we would just copy that that will replicate them and that and honestly that’s the same as the Disney we saw. It really is again logo image text button, but we’ve added a header in there, which is a good idea as well So again in the future. What we can do is we would create our email email campaign, send that and in the future, we’ll just replicate it copy it, and it already has our logo.
It already has the layout and so on Nice and simple, and it’s what the organizations that are getting great results with email marketing are doing. Thank you for joining me.
Google Analytics Google Analytics is a free online tool that allows you to grade and monitor the traffic on your website. In today’s competitive marketplace, the Internet is taken over from yellow page ads and is the first place your customers turn to when looking for your products or services, most business owners are content to be in the 50 % of business owners that actually own a website and Are just simply happy to have a website and don’t actually take advantage of the huge marketing potential that their website has kudos to you for taking time for digging deeper and getting one up in your competition.
So what kind of data can we get from Google Analytics? We can tell exactly where traffic’s coming from. Is it coming from Facebook? Is it coming from Google search? Is it coming from a marketing campaign that we’re doing or possibly a newspaper article that printed a an article on our business and we want to know if that’s driving traffic what’s working? What’s not, we get to have a real picture with that data of how we need to improve and continually increase our traffic to the marketing machine, which is your website, so I will cover exactly how to set up Google Analytics if you do not already have it Set up and I’ll go through step by step and have you up and running in a matter of a few minutes.
Okay, in order to get yourself, a Google Analytics account. The first thing you must have is a gmail account. So if you already have a gmail account, you can simply step this or skip this first step here, where I’m just showing people how to sign up for a gmail account will be very short and sweet and then, shortly after we’ll dive into the Google Analytics sign Up so anyways, just simply I’ve got Google open here I will type in Gmail and do a search and at the top here comes up Gmail and if you do not already have an eye, we will simply create an account.
Ask you to fill in all your personal details here: choose a username password. You know the deal, feel it fill in all that stuff I’ll just quickly. Do that and then pop right back into the article. Okay welcome back simply agree to the Terms of Service. Okay, once you have your gmail account created you, you are now you have a actual Google account with a username and password, and the next thing you want to do is go to the Google search bar and type in Google Analytics and right at the top here.
You’ll see Google Analytics, I’m just simply going to click on that and we’re taken to this page and it’s at analytics.Google.Com, for whatever reason, if you didn’t get here through through the search, you can just simply type in analytics.Google.Com for this page over on the right here. You’ll see sign up start using Google Analytics, we will click on sign up and it’s a new account. What would you like to track? It asks you if you want to track a web site or a mobile app we’re tracking a web site, which is the default setting tracking method.
The only thing we we need to fill out are these these boxes here right now, so the account name. So I’m just simply going to use a landscaping website you can type in whatever key in whatever you want. It’s just a simple title for for your website, not terribly important website, name, I’m again just putting a landscape website and the website URL and the landscaping website that I built on was so whatever your URL is, or your website address, so Karan oops.
I spelt that wrong car on desk top.Com. So yours will be you know: Tom’s painting, calm or whatever your URL is that you selected and built your website with the tutorial industry. Category select one we are in business and industrial markets, I’m just going to select. You can read through those find one that’s most suitable to your business reporting in timezone United States, and we are eastern time zone where I am just select your correct time zone and then it lists a bunch of different things.
You might want to read through these that you share with Google. They recommend it, I’m just going to leave them ticked off, but if you want to unpick them, that’s up to you and then we will click on get tracking ID. So once we click on that this Terms of Service pops up first thing you want to do at the top here. Select your country, the United States is already pre-populated, so I’ll. Select that and then click on.
I accept now the thing there’s a whole bunch of technical jargon and lines of code here that might scare you don’t worry about that. What we’re looking for is this tracking ID you’re just simply going to click hold and drag copy. You know copy and paste that from the UA and then all those numbers to the last last number there copy that line right there and you’ll see what we’ll do with that next. So next thing I want you to do – is open up your website and then get into your WordPress dashboard, so simply hover over the title.
Click on dashboard, once you’ve signed in from your WordPress admin panel – and here we are in the next thing we want to do – is add a plugin so to add a plug-in again. We just simply hover down to plugins and slide over to add new. Now the plug-in we’re looking for is called Google Analytics, and it should be this right now. Currently it’s this purple one and we will click on install. Now it’s got over 600,000 active installs installing and then don’t forget to click on activate okay.
So now that is activated. The next thing we want to do is go down to settings hover over settings and then just slide to the right and you’ll see Google Analytics now, click on Google Analytics and simply here web property ID that line of letters and digits that we copied before we’re. Just simply going to paste that right in there and then click on Save Changes. Awesome. You just installed Google Analytics on your website, so it wasn’t that hard I’d only to go to a couple minutes.
So now, if we go back to our Google Analytics, you can see at the top here. It says admin, that’s where we grab that code and just basically did our quick setup. Next thing we want to do is go over to reporting click on reporting and keep in mind that it’s going to take 24 to 48 hours before you usually 24 hours before you start collecting data. But if you go to this tab here, where it says real time, click on real time, click on an overview and we’re just going to things.
This is a new account will just simply access out, but they have lots of little helpful articles and whatnot. Here you can follow along, but we’ll exit that out and go back to our website hover over your site; name: click on visit site; let’s click on a couple of pages: let’s click on our landscaping page and then we’ll click on our contact. Page, let’s go over and see what’s happening here in real time, so you can actually see in real time there.
Now we’re on the contact page, there’s those pages that I clicked you can see where I’m located and yeah and yeah. It tells you right now how many people are on your website and that’s just the real-time data. So if you really want to get into the nitty-gritty of Google Analytics, like I say it takes 24 to 48 hours before it starts, recording and reporting data that you’ll have daily data stats to look at and then you would simply go down to audience overview right Now we don’t again, we don’t have any data on this because we just installed the script, but it will keep track you can you can change.
You know your date range. It will tell you how many users you had what their average you know pages per session. How many pages that are looking at how long they’re staying on your website? Let’s say you wanted to look at what pages they’re actually looking at you would go down to behavior and then site content and then all pages. I find this a very helpful useful one. Actually, this isn’t too helpful right now, because again we don’t have any data on this.
We’ve just installed this, but again that was behavior site content, all pages and it will list. You know each page how long they’ve been on that page and just give you an idea where people are actually spending time on your website. Another interesting one is acquisition, so if you click on acquisition, then overview, it will give you a breakdown. You know how many people are actually came in today or this month or whatever, whatever period of time you select from social from actual organic meaning, you know from Bing or Google search any other sites that might link to you.
If there’s a you know a news article or something about your business, and then you see them coming from that news article, it would show up here excellent information again, there’s an ad word section. If you do, advertising gives you data on on your ads and what kind of time those people are spending on your on your website, where they’re going lots of stuff for you to play with on the left-hand side here, but again, those are some of the main Ones that I quickly reference are the the real time I will check just to see how people are interacting with a site overview.
Just gives you a broad overview of lots of important data points acquisition. Where is our traffic coming from and then again? Finally, at the bottom here that was right, behavior, site content and all pages there’s a few other things in here like site speed a few little interesting little data points that you can check out later on so anyways I’ll. Let you play with that and again the web’s, a great reference if you’re looking to that to know how to use any of these specific points.
Just simply, Google YouTube it. You’ll you’ll find lots of answers out there. So that’s it for setting up Google Analytics. You will have all the necessary information at your fingertips to know how your customers are interacting with your website. Ok, so I have one request of you: it’s a homework question and it’s about bounce rate. Now a lot of you first-timers are thinking. Okay, what’s Tom talking about bounce rate makes no sense, it’s a term that the search engines came out with that, or I should say, Google, and in analytics it’s a very important term, that you need to study, measure and try and improve bounce rate.
What is bounce rate my homework question? You is, first of all, you got to try and find it in your analytics. It’s not hard. It’s a couple clicks and you’ll be on the bounce rate and what is bounce rate? It is a measurement of how many people come to your page or your website. Whatever page is Lena on your website and then click back, they don’t proceed any further. They don’t click through to a second page.
So basically, it’s telling Google your websites boring, and they don’t want to provide boring content in their search results. So it’s important that you have a great sort of great bounce rate. A great bounce rate is the lower the score, the better so generally anything below 65 % is what you’re aiming for or lower I’ve had some websites in the you know, 70 % 71 still perform not too bad, but they could be a lot better.
The all my websites, the ones that are 65 % or lower you know great – they they just continually gain traffic, so that’s something to shoot for. So in the comments section below, I got a question for you. Please tell me what your bounce rate is. If you can just leave that in the comment section below that’d be great, and I do encourage comments, if you have any questions, I can be reached there or at the Tom towel com contact form.
If you have a question that shouldn’t be in the you know, public section below one want to personally talk to me. I’r always make myself available and we’ll get back to you. Okay, for you, Keener’s in the crowd that are looking for some more information on google analytics.

Today, I’r with Michael T, Johnson chief creative here at slam and we have a Pretty fun topic today we’re talking about YouTube, yeah and I think the fun Thing about YouTube is every time you get a camera out.
If there’s a kid Anywhere around they’re going to ask: is this going on YouTube? So that’s that’s been. My experience is not only that, but everybody wants to be A YouTube star right, it’s true, I you know they. We already know that YouTube. Is the number two most visited site just right behind Google? You know it’s the Second, behind Google again most visited search engine, but if anyone’s like well You know YouTube’s not necessarily relevant for my business.
Maybe it is Maybe it isn’t, but if you have kids, you know that they’re reading YouTube and So YouTube is going to be around for a long time. Yeah it’s it’s definitely not going. Anywhere and even like some of the big players in the social space, like Facebook Instagram, which is Facebook they’re, always still trying to catch up. To what YouTube’s doing on article as far as getting a user and keeping them for a Long time but uh but like you’re, saying the business case, if you’re a brand or a Business I mean you’re not going to be a YouTube star for the most part, unless You know you’re, you were some really really hard.
Have a great natural Charisma and you put a lot of money into it – right, Yeah, right but uh, but what you Can leverage is kind of like the SEO benefits being discoverable and kind of Boosting up your brand in some certain ways, so you know, I think, the way that Most businesses use YouTube is just as a place to host their articles, but with a Couple tweaks: you can take that hosting to make it work for you better with, like Some search engine stuff and things like that yeah, you know I find myself more Often than not, if it’s something that I, if it’s something that I’m trying to Figure out, you know I’d rather read a article than read yeah, that’s just the way.
My brain works, and so even if I don’t go to youtube To make that search, which sometimes I don’t I do it in Google, but that I just Clicked articles, yeah and so with Michael’s talking about Being discoverable, that’s what we’re talking about like creating article Content that people can discover what they’re searching for a solution to Whatever problem they’re, having that your brand can address yeah and I think The other huge benefit of YouTube like apart from that discoverability as There’s a whole ad platform behind YouTube that, like you said, like my kids, Are addicted to YouTube, they will binge read and binge read and binge read.
And that’s, usually the behavior people on YouTube is they’re not there to just Scroll through, like Facebook they’re there to read a lot of content and That’s an opportunity to serve some ads that are incredibly relevant to that Person, you know, because there’s so many people of all ages on YouTube, just Consuming and kind of just binging on content, it’s important as a brand to be There, like in pre-roll, you know, and so we know the average attention span – is 7 To 8 seconds right, yeah and so YouTube geniusly Right they they they did something pretty amazing.
They introduced Six-Second pre-roll ads, so it kind of fits right within that attention span. You know universe, and so what those ads allow you to do is when the person’s Getting ready, you know to read whatever it is: they’re getting ready to read. Like you can just hit them really quickly with something that’s super Exciting super engaging it’s six seconds just long enough to get some awareness.
And over time like, if you’re advertising, these six second articles to your your Ideal target market then they’re going to see these six second ads over and over And over again, and what’s going to happen, is that brand awareness is just going to Increase and so that’s a great way that we’ve seen to like introduce new Products new brands to kind of reinforce some of this brand recognition. You know With your target audience yeah and it works really well and especially works.
Really well because this is how I hear about the lol surprise, that toys for my Daughter, because every every uh every article she reades every few articles she Gets a she gets an advertisement for some new toy, so in a day and age when People don’t read commercials or really read a lot. Tv, this is like a great way to get awareness for your product. I don’t know How my kids find the toys they do, but apparently it’s just on YouTube.
This is True so the next thing to talk about with YouTube is you know, early on Besides the ads, we talked about this idea of creating good content that helps You get discovered and there’s been a big change to the YouTube YouTube. Algorithm and in the last year, so I mean this may not be super familiar to a lot. To a lot of people, but we put out fairly regular content on YouTube and for a While what YouTube was favoring was daily uploads and if, if you’re uploading, Content consistently daily, then like there was a greater chance of you being Seen but they’ve kind of flipped that so we’ve seen a change on the algorithm Where what YouTube favors is kind of this longtail keyword, so when you think About longtail keywords: this is what you’re, putting in a Google search when You’re trying to find something not only that but they’re favoring, older catalogs Of content, so if you can consistently put out things that have to do with your Brand that people are searching for you’re going to get found and it’s going to Not just help you on YouTube, but like help you on your website as well, yeah And you know if, if you want to dig into the SEO reasons, why they’re doing that It’s probably because, like people figured out how to gain the system, Yeah and post stuff really quickly like new blogs, yeah and it’s spammy stuff, Right and so now, favoring my assumption.
It’s favoring, the older catalogs, the Ones that haven’t been banned from YouTube, there’s kind of this built-in Credibility and yeah – and you know so that’s what Google or YouTube once so You know we’re not really going to dig into the SEO like do’s and don’ts for YouTube. Or just in general, we’re probably to do SEO in a different show yeah, but this Longtail idea is just in a nutshell: you know if you’re trying to rank in your Youtube search results for like red widgets everyone and their brother is Probably trying to rank for that too, so it’s really very difficult.
That’s what’s! Called like a short it’s a short word, so it’s a short phrase: a longtail keyword, Is something that red ridge widgets that I can use in my Buick? You know that’s a Longer phrase it’s probably not searched very often, but if that’s something that Your brand then optimize for that phrase, yeah and You’ll, be you know in the top five yeah, not only that, but you’ll be more Relevant to the viewer, that’s searching for that which is really important.
Because one of the things that we’ve seen in the back into YouTube this year, Is that if you’re not super familiar with YouTube back in, they used to just Show you like how many views your article got, which is good information, but what They change this here. Is they show you how many impressions your article got and How many people clicked on that article? So if you do what you’re talking about not Red widgets, but whatever it was red widgets for Buick and and that’s Incredibly relevant to that person, that’s searching that then that article is Going to get a higher percentage of click-through on the topic and when it Gets a higher percentage of click-through, it’s shown to more people.
So it just kind of compounds on itself. You, you use this information to to give Things that are more relevant to the person searching and that always works Good for you in the long run, but if the article is relevant to what they clicked. On and they read it, which that’s, how YouTube is going to determine whether it’s Relevant or not, then it’s going to get shown to more and more people, so yeah Yeah, it’s simple, so I think the other interesting thing about this is so we’re.
Talking about creating like longtail keywords and creating relevant content, But the one thing that you have to do is make sure you get the attention of People and that they actually click on it to begin with, so you could make some Great content, but if nobody is able to find it or nobody sees it, it doesn’t do Any good for you so so there’s two very important things. One of those is making A clickable title for your article, so we talked about this like keywords, but if You get really spammy with a ton of keywords.
You got to remember a human Being is going to look at that title, not a computer yeah! That’s a good point. Because when a lot of people think about optimizing to show up higher and their Search results like on a YouTube they’re thinking about like how many keywords: Kind of stuff into the title and think about just the way that you’ve engaged With YouTube you’re not going to click on a title; That has a million keywords in it: you’re going to kick click on a title that answers The question that you’re asking and does so in a way that prove That it’s relevant, it’s authentic, a human has written it.
So don’t try to Keyword stuff, it’s not worth it yeah so and then the other part of getting People to click on your article is the thumbnail, and this is like arguably, the Most important part to get someone to want to click on your article so like if You’re looking, if I’m doing a search on Google, I’m probably looking on the words Like what the title is, but if I’m on YouTube that that thumbnail is what’s Going to entice me to click, I came across some really interesting information.
About like how the machine learning and AI and everything behind Google and Youtube’s algorithm on those on those thumbnails is and honestly it’s kind of Creepy and it’s weird, but it’s also fascinating so so Google has this thing: Called cloud vision – and this is like this – is the machine learning AI behind Like photos in Google, so if you have a let’s say I have a picture of a person. In a photo – and let’s assume this photo has no words on it at all.
Like I didn’t Put the title: it’s just a picture of a person, maybe they’re doing something or Holding something so what cloud vision does? Is it takes that article? It analyzes The emotion of the person’s face, so it knows the emotion for one it creates a Tag list for what’s happening in that photo, so we talked about keywords and Like longtail keywords, it creates its own list of keywords and tags based on What’s in that photo, it finds the person it pulls their identity from online and It finds all the websites where that person is or all the websites that are Associated with that, so it also creates all these matches for, where related Contents found on the web and for one that just tells you how important those Thumbnails are but also to me it’s just like kind of geeky, fascinating yeah.
You Know like as you’re going through all the things that it does it. You know they Say and the reason why I say they say is because there is no list of what Google Or YouTube actually does anywhere right like this is all just based on Experience and based on like people running tests over and over and over Again to see what works and what doesn’t like you search, and so we look at these Findings and then we’re able to determine you know what some of the best Practices that we should be doing, and so when you talk about like how they Analyze the photo to determine who it is, and then they go out to the web and find Out, where else that person is then it? I immediately am thinking about social Yeah, because we know, especially on the Google side, that social plays a major Role in SEO value, and so the more interaction, the more engagement you have.
On your social pages, it’s going to tie back to your website and boost your website. And so that’s how they’re doing it like they’re, drawing these connections and so If you’re an influencer and you’ve never been on it YouTube before, but you’re You’re known everywhere, I bet you’re going to get a bigger bump. Yeah just Because of the sheer volume of stuff that you have out there yeah, so that’s Pretty cool yeah: it is it’s pretty crazy how everything is connected.

Perhaps your CEO is happy about the way his bio and headshot look on screen like this winter. Those kinds of things are important at anecdotes. For most businesses, though, it has to come down to something objective, something that can be measured. For example, 100 unique visitors came to your website on Monday and 20 of them purchase your product.
You need to be able to determine what you’re getting back from your website. So how do you do that? The ultimate objective measure is whether your website contributes positively to your bottom line. How you arrived at that measurement is the fodder for measurement and analytics. Google Analytics is a tool you may have heard of it’s free, it’s web-based and it quantifies visitor behavior. It will capture certain data as visitors move through the site.
It’s really important to look at just those key indicators that mean something to your type of business. Chances are you’re going to be looking at things like bounce rate, visitors over time and conversion. There’s actually a place in Google Analytics that you can ask it to compare it to your industry, so that you know hey. Is that a bad bounce rate of our good bounce rate is that a good conversion or a bad conversion? Looking at these key indicators over time will help you determine where your site may have problems, and then that way, you really can determine the success of your site.

Mr. Easy for life come back at you guys once again with another revelation on live article got another guide for you guys, and this was actually requested by some of you. I’ve got this question through comments, as well as a couple of personal messages and whatnot, and that is gearing your character from level 1 to 49. So now a couple disclaimers before I get started.
I don’t necessarily know everything about the gearing up system. I’ve only been playing this game for like a couple weeks almost a month now, so I’m going to give you all the information that I possibly can. I know for a fact that I’m probably going to miss out on details. A lot of you guys can correct me if I’m wrong on any of them and of course you can add to it any. You can add any information to this guide in the comment section below, of course, where are you going to go and help me out and as I hope you write help me help you kind of thing, so I’m going to give you like the basics from what I know, and once you get the basics down, it’s pretty much the same thing as you level up between each bracket between 49 and then the 50s and then the 60s and the 70s.
It’s generally, in my opinion, all the same. It’s just a matter of knowing where to go and what to do right in order to get your gear, and we all know that best things like gear is actually crafting gear. So what I’m going to do here is I’m actually going to go ahead and tell you guys how to get some temporary placeholder gears in terms of raid gear, dungeon gear and all that and then the second part.
Well, we’re going to we’re going to talk about crafting gear writing like to how to get like the materials and what you got to do in order to my guess: unlock the ability to buy the materials right, because I’m a good thing about this game. Is that a lot of the materials before your crafting gear can actually be bought through your vendor and we’re to go ahead and we’re going to talk about that a little bit later on in this article but anyways? So I’m going to go ahead, let’s go ahead and get started.
Don’t want to make this too long. I don’t want to drown. You out. I will be spitting out a lot of information. Take some notes: rewind the article if you have to and overall our this with your friends. Of course, if you want to go ahead and let your friends know how to gear up, this is pretty much the basics of how to do it and let’s go ahead and get started. So, as you can see right here, I’m actually bring up the map.
I’r over here in this area right here, okay and this, why? The reason why I’m over here is because this is actually the the entrance to the dark fall dungeon. Okay, now the dark fall, a dungeon, keep in mind that we’re going to be getting four dungeons in CBT 1, it’s going to be dark, fall, misty hollow I deserted shrine and trial of the four kings. Okay, so dark fall is the first dungeon and when, of course, with the come when it comes to the first dungeon.
This is where your first set of gear is going to come from. Okay, usually, whenever you’re requesting and you’re leveling up your character, um you’re going to have some pretty bad gear, you’re going to have like some questing gear, it’s going to be like green grey quality items. It’s not going to be that great, and especially at level 40. If those of you have seen my how to get to level 40 in just under 4 hours or more go ahead and check out that article, the link is in the description below I pretty much go through how you can get to level 40 in just a Few hours of playing right and you can use utilize that into CBT, if you wanted to okay, so you’re going to have some questing gear all the way up until level 20, now keep in mind that the dark fall dungeon actually unlocks at level 20.
You’re going to go through your quest line, it’s going to bring you there, introduce you to the dungeon at level 20 you’re going to have some pretty shitty gear. Like I said the requesting and the dark ball area the dark floor. Dungeon is actually the first place that you want to go ahead and get your first set of raid gear dungeon gear, whatever okay, so as we enter through the the entrance. As you can see, it brings up this page here where it tells us the difficulties that we could do.
As you can see, this, one that I have selected is actually the the solo instance version, the one that you can actually do over and over again up to 99 times a day, and it’s made for one person you actually go through this with the this is The questing version, I have to say that yeah this is the questing version. You get a little bit of exp, but, as you go down here, you can see some rewards and you actually get um.
Depending on how many times did you do this solo version? You can actually get gear, that’s blue quality up to levels; 2:25, okay, right levels, 20 to 25. Alright, so you can definitely get some you this. This is definitely a good way to start out your gear right, depending on what level you are. Okay, if your level is 20 or yeah around this at level area 20 to 25, you can go ahead and get some gear from here for the solo instance, although I don’t necessarily want you to do this on this version over and over again, because I mean, Depending on what levels you are and I’ll be real with you guys, you can definitely get to at least level 30 to 35 within the first couple of hours the payout.
What the penny! If we get the spirit of essence, you may be even you may even be able to get the level 40 within the first day, but I’m assuming that you know you’re at least level 30 or at least going to hit up level 35 soon. So I don’t necessarily want you to get this. The first thing I actually want you to do is actually come into the easy mode. Okay, now the easy one is actually made for five people, but depending on what level you are 30 and above you can actually solo this.
Okay, even with your shitty questing gear that you have okay, this is actually a good way to start you off in terms of all your gear. As you can see it, Everage — is out to be levels 20 to 29. Okay in terms of the levelling of your gear right, so this is definitely a good way to start you off, you can go ahead and either solo this depending what level you are, or you can have a group of five people right.
You get your guild or use raid finder or whatever, but initially this is the first thing that I want you to do. Ought to get your first set of gear, okay, to get rid of those questing items, all those shitty green items coming there into dark fall and do the easy mode to get you some nice 2229 gear, so I’ve actually so load this dungeon this. This easy mode of dark form many times and you can actually get some purple gear from it, even though it doesn’t say it down here, there is still a chance that you can get purple quality on a level twenty to twenty nine gear.
Okay, so that’s still a factor that comes into play whenever you do this, I recommend, like I said I recommend you soloing this and you can get all the gear to yourself, but of course, if yet, if you want to do that, you have to be. I would say at least be level 30 before you attempt to solo this right, but either way go ahead and do that and if you want to right, I do recommend this, but you don’t necessarily have to if your level 30 right.
If you are level 30, you could actually do the hard one. I believe the hard one. You can only do a couple of times a day now and the Chinese server. It says you can do this five times a day, but I I’m not sure if that’s going to be the case for CBT right, they may change that. Maybe only you’re only able to do hard mode, Darkfall on twice a day, you’re going to get some pretty good exp. I will not lie about that, but with hard mode of course, you’re not going to get any indicators in terms of the mechanics.
That’s the differences and a few other things as well, and of course this is made for five people, so I’d like I said. Definitely, if you’re going to do hard mode at least be level 30, and I go ahead and get yourself use Raid Finder to make a guild, get a guild, get some friends and do some hard mode action together, because, as you can see, you can actually get Purple quality gear from levels 30 to 35, depending on what level you want? Okay, that’s what that’s really good starting out here in terms of your first time rating or your first time rating a hard mode in dark points.
If you can get some 30 to 35 gear on your first few attempts, then that’s awesome, okay and of course, the more the more you do, this everyday, the better, the easier it’s going to get high. If not, then it’s pretty much guarantee that you’re going to get 30 to 35 blue gear and yeah. So that’s going to set you up and by doing this, this is actually going to set you up quite easily for the the next, the the next dungeon okay.
So yeah alright, so I’m assuming that you know you’re pretty much you’ve gotten all of your you pretty much trashed, all your questing gear. You got one at least level 30 gear. The next thing I actually want you. What I want you to do is, as I come over here as I come up here. As you can see up, the road is uh. The next dungeon is misty Hollow. Okay, misty Hallows denied the next dungeon that you actually unlock as requesting, and I believe this one starts off at level.
25. Okay, so, as you can see here, the rewards here are quite amazing, okay, so this is the easy mode for misty Hollow. This is the Spider Queen dungeon that you’ve been hearing about. It starts off at level 25 and, as you can see, the rewards are pretty awesome right. You get some you get pretty decent exp, I’m not going to lie if you’re going to do a dungeon at least one dungeon a day. This is definitely the one I want you to do, because the exp here is quite amazing.
You also get. You also have a chance to get these materials right here now. This material is actually ties into your crafting gear. Okay, we’re going to talk about that later, but just now that this is a you can actually get this. This is very important because you need this. For your crafting gear this, by the way, if you’ve been sitting and you’ve, been wondering what this is. This is actually extra system points, reputation, points and what you could do with reputation points is, you can actually accumulate them and go to vendors and buy materials.
For your crafting gear, so this is very good to have and I believe, every time you run a dungeon you’re going to get some extras appoints reputation, points that you can use to go ahead in exchange for crafted gear material. Okay, this right here. I think this is a it’s like a fragment, and I believe this ties in to your legendary skills, your F skills right. I heard it’s a pretty low drop rate, but when you do get it, it’s very beneficial to unlocking your F skills right: okay, okay, so in terms of the gear.
So, as you can see here that you could actually, it says here that this dungeon actually does level 40 to 45 gear now, assuming that you guys are not level 4, it again, you can actually still come in here and get some 35 to 40 years. Okay, I do believe that you may actually be able to get level 30 to 35 gear if I’m not mistaken, but they’re going to be blues. But what I, what I’m seeing here is there is a chance that you could get 35 to 40 gear, blue or purple right there they’re pretty much putting all the good stuff on the table.
I think you can get 30 to 35 gear, I’m not if I’m not mistaken. I’r not totally sure about that. Though. You can correct me if I’m wrong, but if they don’t then you’re definitely almost guaranteed to get at least a couple Purple’s within the ranges of thirty five to forty or forty to forty five, depending on what your level is. As you can see here, even though this dungeon actually unlocks at level 25, you could actually do this from levels 25 and on.
So that’s why it says 25 to 79. This game is very um. The game uses the scaling system. I don’t know if you heard about that, but the scaling to making the the dungeons pretty much tailored in terms of difficulty towards your level right. So, for example, even though if this starts off at level 20 five, if your level 45 you’re, probably going to face off against level 45 mom’s and not level and not level, 25 mom’s, okay, you know what I mean or if your level 70, 76 or 56 Or 47, whatever level you are, you will be facing that level of mobs and bosses, of course, or pretty much right in the middle, depending on what what average level that you and your friends write.
If you come into a five man group, one person is like level 25, but another guys, level, 79 or 49, or something like that. It’s going to it’ll probably meet you right in the middle, like thirty five ish kind of something like that so yeah. This game is really big on the whole scaling system right, so that’s why you can actually come in here or in the later levels and still be able to get gear. I believe the max here, as you can see, is 40 to 45, though in terms of what kind of raid gear you can get but yeah, so you could actually do this, get some pretty decent gear and whatnot, okay and yes, so that is from 20.
That is from 25 and on okay. Now, let’s move on to another dungeon that I want to go ahead and talk to you about. So if I go up to the map – and I don’t actually have a teleporter here – but if I teleport over here and fly up over there right from here to there as we teleport there, that is actually the the entrance to desert shrine. Okay. So, let’s head over to desert, shrine and deserted shrine is kind of interesting to me.
Okay, it really is pretty much kind of interesting to me because, even though uh, if you are not, if you don’t have gear that is 30 to 35, you can actually get thirty to thirty-five gear guarantee from deserted shrine. It’s kind of weird because misty Hollow says that you can actually get thirty five to forty gear, but then it goes to. It goes to me saying that, like what, if people only have twenty to twenty nine gear from the dark fall, and they want that? Thirty to thirty-five gear, like I said, you can actually go to deserted shrine anomic and get it as a guarantee.
The problem with desert, enshrined, though why it’s the third, the next dungeon that on our list, is because, unlike misty Hollow that unlocks at twenty five deserted shrine, you actually have to wait until level 35 and not twenty five for it to unlock. Let’s see I’m looking for where’s the engine, the entrance is like in a mountain or something here we go here. We go all right right in here. Okay, here is the entrance to deserted shrine.
If any of you want to know that or as wondering as you can see right here, deserted shrine level 35, as you can see, oh that’s the hard mode, okay, so level 35 is when the easy mode drops or is when the easy mode is unlocked for You right and, as you can see here for the lubra wards, we have levels 30 to 35 gear, okay, and so this is something that this is something that’s kind of up to you, ish, okay, you know what I mean so, like I said with the whole Dark bar with the whole dark vault thing right: you’re, pretty much almost guaranteed to get an average item level of levels 20 to 29.
When you do your your dark mode, your dark fall easy mode. If by any chance you get a group and you actually do the hard mode and you actually have the levels 30 32 35 gear purple gear, then you can actually move over to misty Hollow and get some 35 to 40 gear. Depending on what level you are. But for those of you who actually only have 20 to 29 gear, okay – and you want to get that nice 30 to 35 gear – you don’t want to do the hard mode, darkfall dungeon – you can actually come in here.
The con with this is that you actually have to wait until you’re, actually level 35 to attempt it okay. So for awhile I would say you’re going to be stuck with levels 20 to 29 gear up until you reach level 35, and then you can come in here and guarantee get you some nice 30 to 35 gear, okay, alright, and that this is only if you, You pretty much can’t do the hard mode. Dark fault version right. Okay, so that’s why that’s? What I would say you should probably do is that if so, if you do, if you choose to do the dark fall hard mode, then definitely do that.
So you can get some nice 30 to 35 year and then move over to misty Hollow for some 35 to 40 gear. But those of you who can’t do that, I would say you’re stuck with that level. 30 gear definitely either weight to your level, 35 or whatever level. You are just level up to 35 and keep that 29 gear and come in here at 35 to get you some nice 30 to 35 gear. If that makes any sense, it’s kind of hard to explain, because it’s kind of the order of dungeons is a little bit reversed in my opinion, but you can definitely do this.
However, you want, in terms of this gear, keep in mind that none of this gear that I’m pretty much showing you or pretty much explaining to you, is nowhere near important. This is just kind of the foundation that you need to know it before you get to your crafting gear because, like I said when the game, the game is so big on scaling right the whole scaling system, you don’t want to be coming into misty Hollow where Or desert strong with questing gear, okay, if you’re level, 35 or level 40, and you still have requesting gear, guarantee you’re going to have a hard time.
Okay, so by doing these dungeons before you start crafting, your crafting gear is definitely going to help. You prevent you from going through that terrible experience of having shitty gear on a higher level, PvE activity right. Okay, so, like I said, overview, Darkfall levels 20 to 29. Once you hit level 35, you can actually come in here and get some 30 to 35 gear and once you’re 30 or once you’re 35 and above all of us 35 to 45, you can actually go back to misty Hollow and I get some nice purple gear.
Okay, if not, then definitely do dark fall, hard mode, get you some nice 30 to 35 gear and then go straight into misty Hollow for that 35 to 40 gear and all the way up to 45. Okay, now, by any chance now, once you reach, once you actually reach level 40. Okay, once you reach level 40, like I said, it’s definitely possible to actually reach 35 to 40 within your first day of playing okay, it’s definitely possible once you reach level 40, you can actually queue up for the hard mode, deserted shrine and, as you can see Here you can get some nice 35 to 40 gear.
Okay, not only that, but you can also get these nice rewards. As you can see, this is used for refining as well as this as well. These two items tie into refining and enchanting your gear, which is definitely very important. I know what this is you’re going to have to help me out on what this is as well as this item right here. This item right here. I think this is actually crafting material for you crafting material for your crafting gear, so Matt’s for your crafting gear could actually drop in hard mode and, I think, even easy mode.
If I, if I’m not correct, I know you can okay, you get extras and points. Instead, okay reputation, points alright, so reputation, points for our easy mode and then hard mode. I think you get some crafted materials, which is definitely beneficial okay. So if you hit level 40 within the first day right, you can immediately actually queue up after you do your darkfall for the day, you can actually try and get a group together and queue up for either hard mode or easy mode first and then go into Hard mode deserted shrine and get you some nice 35 to 40 gear.
Okay for those of you who are actually level 40 to 45. Like I said, I want you to go back to misty Hollow and get the levels 40 to 45 gear. Okay, if that makes any sense, okay I’ll put a list on the order that I want you to do it in okay, but as initially that’s what I want you to do so Darkfall first move over to deserted shrine. If you can’t do hard mode, if you can’t do hard mode great and then go straight, then go straight to misty Hollow for 35 to 40, then from 40 to 45 stay in misty Hollow, if not come to the hard mode, deserted shrine in and get you 35 to 40 gear, okay, that makes any sense all right.
So and of course not just if I go to my character, you won’t just only get like Armour pieces. You also get accessories as well. So keep that in mind you will get accessories. Maybe a couple of blue or purple weapons as well I’ll, be keep in mind that you should definitely always keep that level 37 craft weapon. You will get the level 37 craft a weapon, no matter what, if you follow the quest lines, you don’t have to worry about.
You know grinding materials for this one, but it turns of like your offhand and accessories. You will also get that as well as your regular gear pieces. Okay, so now that you are level 45, you have an average item level of levels 40 to 45. Now we come into the fun part. Alright, and if I fly down here and we’re going to be talking about, we will be talking about crafted gear: okay, let’s go ahead and fly down to the city, arm, side, teleport teleport to the city; and let’s talk about us, talk about some crafting gear.
All right, so the crafting gear actually starts at levels 45 to 49, and this is definitely what I would consider the top of the line. Endgame our content. Okay, I would say endgame for me, for you should start at like 35 and above right, but for some, maybe 25, because I’m misty Hollow you’re going to be doing misty Hollow quite a lot. But in terms of gear wise, I would say this is that this is it right here, man, okay, this is it right here.
So if I talk to this merchant right here, all the way to the right, I click on the first option. You can actually see this is. This is what we got going on right here, alright, so this is our crafting gear. We got our helmet right here and then we got breastplate and then we got hands. We got our legs and then we got our feet. Okay, and as you could see here, this all ties into an average item level of 45 to 49, so the the feet unlock at 45 49 legs, unlike at 45, and the hands on like at 46 breastplate at 46 and headpiece at 48.
Okay, so starting out from 45 to 49, you will be accumulating your abilities to unlock and craft your crafted gear, okay, so yeah and then the same thing goes with. You know the you know: 59, the 60 and then the seventies. It’s all the same. Basically, but yeah, this is pretty much the end game gear right here I would say, and yes, so that is the accessories or now I’m talking about the gear and the armor pieces over here.
If you click option 2, you actually have the accessory path right here too, so you get your necklace. You got your ring and then you get your earring right here. This unlocks at 45, this unlocks at 48 and then this one is at 49, okay, so yeah. Alright so, like I said now that you got your 45, your 40 to 45 rate gear, the next thing I want you to go ahead and do is a start grinding out. Your reputation points now, keep in mind.
I didn’t actually say this. You should have actually been grinding out. Your exorcism points pretty much as soon as you hit level 30. I believe the exorcism actually unlocks at level 30, if you click see on your character, go all the way to the end. This is your exorcism reputation right here. Okay, it starts at level 30 and pretty much what this is is it shows you your rank right here, and it shows you all your reputation points that you have accumulated 998 just by soloing dungeon by myself.
You get exorcism points. If you see it in the Duluth table what you can get right so so, once your level 30, like I said, doing, part of your dailies should be whatever the exorcism dailies are and, as you can see on the right over here, this is actually where your Daily exorcism quests are going to be, I’m pretty sure, so we have the daily and then you got like a god mode, hard motor with it. I think it’s like a hard mode and then this one should be like a weekly.
I think I think this would be a weekly, so it’s like that, so it’s like a daily dungeon, a daily hard mode and a weekly god mode. Dungeon will be in your brackets. I believe right, if I remember this correctly correct me if I’m wrong – oh yeah, this will be in your brackets and, as you can see, you will accumulate like a hundred points here and points there, and I think that’ll actually go towards your leveling.
Okay, your level and, as you can see, I’m only rank one, so there’s only a few materials that I can actually buy at Rank 1, but each time you rank up, you will actually see that this is the new materials that you can buy so that material. We saw at the desert deserted shrine. I can actually purchase this instead of looking for it in a dungeon drop at level. 2. Okay, but yeah now I’ll talk I’ll, tell you this I’ll! Tell you this much this material this this and that can all be purchased from a merchant.
Ok, that’s the best part about this crafting gear is that a lot of the crafting materials can just be purchased to reputation points. The only thing you have to do is accumulate reputation, points rank up, get the minimum required, ranking and you’re going to be able to purchase them. Okay, this item right here, I’m not too sure about this thing of this – is like a transformation stone from bns. I’r not entirely sure where you can get this.
I do know for a fact that you can buy it off the auction house, but I don’t know – and I and I think it actually comes in fragment, to fragments to like. If you get a certain amount of the fragments of this stone, you can combine it and make a stone right, but from here I do know for sure this is a dungeon drop as well as a dismantling drop so like, for example, if you get purple gear From the desert shine that you don’t need anymore, you can actually dismantle it and you have a chance to get this material.
I think I’m pretty sure correct me if I’m wrong, but in terms of buying it through vendors through extras and reputation points you can buy. This all the way down to here, alright, you can buy these for materials. I’ll show you which one of the vendor is this one like, I said, I’m not too sure about where to get it. Hopefully some of you guys know where to get it. I can, let me know, but yeah so, like I said once you get level 45.
I want you to go ahead and keep the gear that you have and pretty much level up. Do all your dailies. Do your afk spawn your guild dailies and level up all the way up to 49? Okay and the reason why I don’t want you to work on your gear, your crafting gear materials until your level, 40 49 is because I want you to have the ability to have all of your crafting gear unlocked before you start grinding out the materials.
Initially, everything here and the crafting materials is pretty much the same. You know you got these guys right here and then same thing with this with the breastplate and then this one right here, this item you can actually buy as well. You can buy this item too and yeah it’s pretty much all the same, and then, of course, when we hit the 50s right, they’ll add a few things, as you can see, there’s more materials added once we hit the 50s, but in terms of CBT we’re only Going to be levels 49, you only have to worry about getting these materials right here.
Okay, so that’s the gear and I’ll talk about the accessories, just real quick. So, as you can see, if I go to the ring this, you give three different options of rings, and I don’t know if you can see this, but each ring has a different set of stats. Okay – and this is what’s so amazing about the freedom of your build – you could actually craft three different rings with three different three different stats.
Depending on what build you have, okay, but what I want you to do in terms of material efficiency. I want you to craft the ring that has the stats, that’s tailored to your favorite, build okay before you start crafting more rings or whatever. I really do want you to craft your first one or two rings, that’s tailored to the build that you’re going to be using 24/7. Okay, like I said, you have three different options, but pick the one that suits your build.
The most okay and same thing goes for the earring, as you can see here, different stats right, but they both unlock at 45. You have the option of choosing between two different kinds of crafted earrings in terms of accessories, or I mean, depending on what you want. You can have one of you have one of this one of that. You know one of this, one of that or two of these two that you know you know what I mean.
The only thing you don’t really have an option is the necklace right, because you only have one slot to add your necklace in. So you don’t have one choice, but I’m just saying this is a pretty cool feature that gives you the freedom to choose. What stats you kind of want in terms of some of your accessories so definitely use it to your user. To your advantage, I would say so yeah and same thing. The materials right is, as you can see, you got this material then I want which can all be purchased right so yeah.
That is the gear for the crafted gear. I want to go ahead and talk to you guys real, quick about the the weapons. So, as you can see here, we have a level 37 weapon right here. You actually get this through questing. So don’t worry about this one or crafting this one, because you’re going to get this through requesting, but as soon as you hit 49, as you can see right here, as soon as you hit 49, you can actually use your level 37 weapon as a prerequisite material To help you get your level 49.
Okay, you don’t have to worry about getting this stone right here. You can immediately trade in your 37 for the 49. Okay, so yeah that’ll be used as a crafting material and then of course, this three right here like I said you can buy this through it through the the vendor. Okay, get this with the vendor, and this was, I would say, if you’re going to do a crafted weapon, or I mean I crafted gear, I would say that your very first crafted gear that you would you should probably make first, is your weapon majority of your Dps and all your damage or whatever comes from your weapon, so it’s very important that you actually utilize your materials to the fullest and I would say the easiest thing, but the most efficient thing to do is to focus on getting your level 49 crafted weapon.
Okay, so, as you can see and like I said since you’re going to have this, it’s since you’re going to have this as a prerequisite, it makes it even easier. You don’t have to worry about getting this. Like I said, you can just immediately do this and I, like I said you can buy all this stuff and then just make it okay, so yeah same thing goes with your main hand, if you can okay, because, like I said or I’m in your offhand because, Like I said, most of your damage comes from your weapon, so it’s very important that you utilize that so, as you can see here, this is my level 49 offhand, which is like the hand cannon, as you can see that actually, oh, that actually unlocks at level 46, so you could actually start crafting or getting mats for it at 11:46.
If you wanted to okay and another cool thing about the crafting gear, as you can see, it actually has two gem slots open, so you can there’s always room for gems right and you can actually buy some pretty good starting out gems from the vendor as well. A lot of stuff for the crafting gear can be bought through reputation bender. The only thing you really have to do in terms of like I said the basics, the basics of gearing up is getting a lot of reputation.
Points: okay, getting a lot of reputation points as well as ranking up to at least I would say four okay, so I yeah these are your three vendors that you want to be looking for in on the map here in in this wonderful city, and this is Pretty much cutting these. These guys will give you the best gear, okay yeah. So I talked about the vendors okay. Let’s go, let’s go check out those vendors real fast okay.
So if I come up the stage right here, alright fly up the stairs. As you can see, we have some vendors lined up right here. Okay, these are where the vendors are that sell the materials okay. So if I, if I talk to this one I’ll show you I will show you this one: first, real, quick, oops! Oh, if I talk to this one and I go to the second tab, as you can see, she sells gems this right here. These are some gems that you can use to put in your that you can use the socket into your your crafted weapons.
Okay, as you can see here, pretty much, you need 1/5, I needed 150 of whatever the hell. This is, and I can go ahead and purchase one of these gems. As you can see, it’s got a it’s got some stats and it has a bonus roll on it: okay plus 10, whatever the hell, it is and yeah same thing for this and that and, as you can see, I think I want to save the ones that Maybe have better stats, I don’t know actually need needs.
One of these, I’m not sure where the hell I’m going to get this, but this is something that you actually need in order to buy it. I’r sure this would be like a dungeon drop or a quest drop or whatever or like a daily reward, or something like that, but in terms of gems, some of it some of your nice starting out gems, you can go ahead and buy it through here. Of course, I’m sure you can get gems through like PvP or like PvE daily activities or whatever you can get a measurement wards, but if you want to buy them, you guys should come to this one.
This vendor right here, okay and same thing right here. These are gems as well right, two different kinds of gems, so yeah and I believe, okay and then the one next to her. She actually sells gems as well. If I go to the second tab right here, right CC sells more of these kinds of gems right. The different types of gems – this is what she sells and, of course, like I said, here’s that material I was talking about that you can get through dungeon or I’ll bite through your vendor or dismantling old gear.
Okay, this is that material that I said you can actually buy. So if I, if I open this up, as you can see, I have nine hundred ninety nine. Ninety eight exorcism points that I accumulated just by running dungeons and it cost ninety of them to get one. The one thing that I am missing, though, is rank. Three I’m only rank one, and I believe you need to be rank. Three ought to buy this material right here.
Okay, this is some nice crafted material. Okay. So if you do that, and if I open, if I come down here – and I go to the second tab, as you can see – remember those materials that was needed for the crafting gear, like I said you can actually buy them right here same thing and of Course, when it comes to crafted gear materials, it looks like they’re going to need not just exorcism points or rank four, but also 40 of whatever the hell.
This is – and this is something that I actually do not know how to get so we’re going to have to research that on how the hell we’re going to get this material, but in terms of the crafting gear meds. Of course, you can buy it through this vendor right here, as you can see, okay, so these this, for these formats are pretty much the ones you’re going to be buying the most and then, of course, you also have this one right here.
So pretty much keep these five this one and the four right here to keep these five items on the list of things to buy things to prioritize, I’m fine! Okay! This is pretty much what you’re going to be needing in order to craft your 45 to 49. Crafting gear, okay and yeah, I think that is about it guys in terms of the basic stuff that we’re going to be needing to know in CBT. I think that’s pretty much all you need to know.
Okay, so yeah guys. Hopefully you enjoyed that. I think. That’s all I wanted to cover these. Are these other vendors. They sell other useful items, but I’m not sure what they are, but in terms of like crafting materials and gems, come to this girl or come to this merchant right here and come to this merchant right here. Okay, well check out on the map. Like I said, we are right here in the city you will get to the city just by questing, from your first twenty levels and yeah.
