- Update: There is a Channeling -6% ring. Quite nice. Perhaps still too much work, but you cannot beat free as a price, especially when people charge at least 25 million for similar rings. Mold: Secret of the Dark Spirit
Dragon Quests have been given a bad rap in the forums; my experience so far has been that, like all PWI quests, they are long and involve a lot of travelling. On the other hand, much of the effort of doing a quest is in finding out how to do it. Once the DQs are learned thoroughly, they will be considerably quicker to perform.
The ingredients for the lower level DQs are 1K - 5k in the AH. But so are the ingredients for every other DQ. The best strategy, it seems to me, is to level up, farm your own ingredients for copper orders if needed, and then buy what is by then super cheap ingredients for the higher level DQs. DQ 41 ingredients in particular are very cheap; surprising, because they offer a chance to receive silver orders as well. If anything, it should be the DQ31s that are cheap, because they offer the same Order reward as DQ20; only the xp and spirit rewards are greater, and not by much.

- -Update- DQ41 requires 10 of each ingredient, rather than 5, as DQ20 does. The old version of the 'Law of Supply and Demand' says that because there is increased demand for DQ41 ingredients, the price should be higher. However, I don't trust either version of the 'Law' (see below). But if DQ41 is requiring more of each ingredient than DQ31, then the additional chance of silver may be considered not worth it.
- (The 'Law of Supply and Demand' has been changed from its original form when economists found out that because market speculators had been following the 'Law', supplies would instead increase when the price was high. Perhaps, by now, the original version of the 'Law' is again true, because speculators went and changed to follow the new one. Scientists, despite their rigorous constraints upon what level of truth can be ascribed to speculations on the facts they obtain, get a lot of flack from exactly the same sort of people who give absolute and utter credence to everything economists say. But Economics does not follow the scientific method; scientists would never make a Law and then change it around to exactly the opposite and go on as if nothing happened. In fact, scientists only make Laws about things that are immediately observable to everyone everywhere always, like Gravity. Everything else, they call Theories, no matter how many experiments have been done to prove them. Everything that has not received enough proof yet is a Hypothesis, which is what Supply and Demand should have been changed back to when it was so thoroughly discounted) VvAnarchangelvV 22:16, October 29, 2010 (UTC)
