Preparation for ranking Blacksmith?

in Help
Before that I would like to say this first - No, I do not want to use skill training seals.

Since double rainbow will arrive soon, I am thinking to rank blacksmith. If I am to use:
- 2x training potion (which means I will have x8 training on double rainbow)
-10 exp blacksmith hammer

1) What rank can I possibly aim to achieve in 2 days of the double rainbow?
2) Is it possible to go from RF-R9 using Edern's PTJ in a day provided I don't miss a single PTJ in like ~15 hours?
3) I am prepared to spend money for the materials. Around how much gold should I have to get from RF to R1?
4) What is the most needed materials for blacksmith? If someone is to list the number of required materials that would be great ^^

I hope someone with the experience of already having went through this nightmarish skill can share their knowledge :)

    it's random, no one can give you a number but if i remember correctly i got r8 only with the talent in less than a week with edern ptj and some armors and weapons at r9, i am sure you ca get r9 on a few days, about the mats i cant remember you should check some user guides, the new one: http://wiki.mabinogiworld.com/view/User:Larsa/Larsa's_Guide_To_Blacksmithing and the old one: -Removed-, if you dont have r1 synth you are going to waste a lot of time and money, try to find someone to synth for you, the same go for refining and weaving, if i am free i can help you if you are at mari, if you are on another server check this link http://forums.mabinogi.nexon.net/discussion/141/mari-s-life-skills-central , have fun and gl.

    Someone has made a guide on it more recently than the ones on wiki: -Removed- It's fairly detailed on number of required mats and total cost. And as for edern's ptj, keep in mind that for later ranks you need to be at intermediate or advanced ptj to get what you need, so if you start from 0 counts, in 15 hours you will still be in basic ptj.

    The beauty of Blacksmithing is that these little things,

    http://wiki.mabinogiworld.com/view/Arat_Crystal

    are your friend. Combine them with one Holy Water and one ingot of whatever you want more of, synthesize them, and you have 10 more ingots of whatever type you used. As for the predicting how far you'll get, just go. Mabi is way more fun (and less stressful) if you try to think of skills as progression rather than objectives.

    So R1 is realistically impossible to achieve during double rainbow then lol I started on the ptj, did 10 so far and at rank C but Edern didn't give me the manual for ranking to rank B. That thread is for Mari server only tho? I'm on Alexina ;_; Ranking lifeskills is never fun :C

    I started on my quest to buy Exp 10 blacksmith hammer but it's looking like it will take weeks, months even to get it :( I wished I bought a exp 9 hammer when I saw it on Belvast a few months back >< Buying fine and finest leather is hard as well, advertised it for days but none mails. At this rate I'm just gonna gather materials slowly and I don't think I want to do 100 ptjs... even back when I grinded ptj for holy water I can only get up to intermediate level, 100 will be excruciatingly painful. I'll just rank other skills during double rainbow...
