Manufacturing, refining, combining, attribute points, affinity, etc... Mathmatical table?

I realize all this info is already online on some P.W.I. forum or FAQ. But i think its just wise and important that we all have a just ur standard 70 sheet * 11" x 9" notebook and a pen next to our computers. And that we write stuff down like ratios of what to do what such as:chaos powder- 15 nectar 10 salvial (rec 2000 hp ^30 sec) etc..... This can help us all as one and individually. Even write down things like where u find lots of some herb or mat. E.g. I farm tons of lvl. 1 and lvl. 2 herbs starting just outta city of the lost's north gate and continuing zig/zag n. for a bit. Feel free to add some imput about this below.

ok well we all have the map to use now but im still thinkin some of us have too much of some and not enough of other mats. im always good to check inv for trades and it seems i always need sompn and have too much of another

oO go to your home city where u came from first and start there. and then other ones. i think am i understanding u right? you always get to make shabby crap in your own city, then it branches out from there/ and of course u know to go to the elder to up the skill to nxt lvl. i dont know if i understood right? my craftsman is lvl 2 im working them all up. if i understood this wrong ask me k
