Question about housing and placing the crafting bonuses

The crafting bonuses you get from the item shop, can you place more than 1, for example 3 alchemy pots? Or will you only gain the effect of 1? And is buying multiple worth it?

I have 10 x Branded Anvils on my Blacksmith toon, overkill maybe but was at the time when the 71 purple accessories (lvl 72 cap) required level 80 in blacksmithing. And yes the bonus is cumulative.

Depends on how much money you have to burn. It's far more efficient to get the crafting related set skills instead, they give 40% speed and xp gain for all crafts. Sure, you can add craft tools on top, but for mosts crafts it's much more convenient to level next to a vendor instead of inside your house.

I have to disagree with this. Having a big crafting bonus makes a difference in your house. A few of my alts get more the double the xp in their houses than they do near a crafting npc. Any bonus crafting xp you get cuts down on time and more importantly the amount of mats needed to level up.

Trying to reach level 100, when the highest craftable recipe is 80 is difficult already. Why would you want to gain less crafting xp by crafting near a crafting npc?

when you reach 1k housing crafting bonus, you get 100% xp bonus + 80% crafting time decrease, so, 1s per craft instead of 5s. i think i spent 500 or 800 dias to get to 1k. With ISS's and crafting speed pot, you get down to .5s casting per craft, and 140% bonus xp.

Now, if it's worth it, at the time i bought the ovens it was, since each diamond was costing around 20k, so it cost me 10~16M gold for all of it. Right now, with diamonds going for about 250k per in my server, i'd say it's not worth it, maybe for alchemy and cooking, since even after you reached cap(80~85, since not much of a point on going higher than that, better wait for 85 recipes to start leveling again) you'll still be crafting a lot, Hero pots, uni's, strong stims, all kinds of high level foods, candy/serens. All those are always needed on the server. So the speed will always help, not sure if that happens to other craftings, don't think they craft hundreds of times per day, after reaching cap like cooking and chemistry.

But i'd recommend looking for the lvl 60 ISS's before dropping a lot of money on furniture.

If you go into another toons house, you will get the speed bonus but not the XP bonus when crafting. A couple of years ago, there was a toon by the name of Phatcat, and he had an open invitation for anyone to come and craft in his house. It was not uncommon to see 10 or 12 toons in his house doing alchemy, (which was his primary crafting skill). That crafting bar flew, it could not have been more than .5 sec per craft.
