Yes, I know on my server myself and at least 3 other to-be tailors have been in a buyer bidding war on TS components. It's starting to get a little expensive.

Yeah. There's a few others to make that are vendor bought. Brute champagne isn't too expensive. I almost maxed brewing and I didn't make a single KD lol

What skill do you need BD's to max out nowadays?

Waaay cheaper and easier methods exist
Setup a buyer for Uncut Black Sapphires, Uncut Rubellite, Raw Shimmering Nihilites, Prestidigitases, Harmongates, Taafites, Raw Faycite Crystals, and Chronal Resonance Dusts.
The Black Sapphires and Rubellites are typically very cheap as are the Shimmering Nihilites. Prestiditases and Harmongates can be cut and sold back to merchants for a nice profit! Cut your Taafites and sell them on your trader for much plat! Make Dwerium and Temporite jewelry from the crystals and dusts and again sell them on a trader for a very nice profit.
The dwerium and temporite jewelry requires an enchanter, but that's it.
Much much cheaper and better route than BD's......

BD's max out at 302 IIRC.

No one buys these things anymore. On the bright side though, I recently made a full dwerium set for a friend that just returned to EQ. Going to make another full set for another returning friend later as well.

I'm sure there is. But it's not the cost that gets me. I don't buy BDs. I get a ton of them just doing my normal stuff. It's the pathetic rate of increase for jewelcraft that's disturbing. 360 BDs for 2 skill ups is rather harsh. I only have 3 to go anyway, so I'll make it there sooner or later.
