This Rift outfitter profiting guide will help you to make the most out of your professions. This is the best way I have found to earn gold in Rift from the auction house. I tired several other profession combinations and this one is by far the most profitable. It is also important to note that you can dominate several markets with this crafting profession combination thus maximizing your profits and gold from the auction house.
1. The first thing you will need to do is train in Butchering. You will need leather from butchering to make leather goods via the outfitter skill. You will want to skill up in outfitting using leather and not cloth because it is much easier to get and you can skill your butchering profession in conjunction with your outfitter skill and runecrafting skill. Save your all of your leather!
2. The next step is to take all your leather from skilling up butchering and use it to skill up your outfitting skill. If you have extra leather you will still want to make items from it because you will be braking down these items to skill up your runecrafting. The best item to make for this is pairs of shoes. They don't require much leather and they are magical thus can be broken down for runecrafting materials.
3. The next step is to finally skill up your Runecrafting. You will make the most money with your runecrafting skill. The armor augmentations sell out quickly in the auction house and are in constant demand. The only flaw in this method of skill up your professions for profit in Rift is that you may not have enough materials to take your Runecrafting skill to 300. You may be required to farm more leather. Alternatively you can brake down gear which drops from creatures as you level up and you can also use your precious cloth to skill from but it is usually best saved for making bags.
Now that you have maxed out all your skills and you are at 300 you can start to put your items up in the auction house for sale. Be sure to offer a wide range of item enchantments made from Rift Runecrafting as well as Bags made from Rift Outfitting. The bags and enchantments tend to sell out quickly if they are priced right. Often times you will find that you need to be selling the second to best bag to make any profits. Other Rift Crafting Guides may have more ways of profiting from Rift professions.
