Btw you don’t need crit upgrades that match the amount of ores you need, if that’s what you’re worrying about. E.g. I produce 15 bars per smelting, for gloves that need 24 bars. But I just have auto smelt high enough that its “bars per second” exceeds the “bars required per second” by 0.01 – in my case it’s Infinitium +6 Gloves that requires 0.45 bars per second – and my smelting produces 0.46 bars per second.

I know I don’t need the crit upgrades, but I like them for making things a lot less messy. Call it mild OCD on my case, heh.

I tested your Insane selling rate, and… yeah, I’ll concede. Your path works a lot better than I thought it would. Part of that is almost certainly selling Infinitium +27 instead of Devilium, but the fact that Insane lets me reasonably sell Infinitium +27 is a point in its favour.

One thing to note, though – you generally want to not bother with much but mail. Mail gives the highest return per ore, as well as not taking up all that much more time to forge. Your Infinitium +6 Gloves are worth the same as Infinitium +5 Mail – and you can probably make the mail a bit faster.

Indeed mail gives the highest return per ore, but ores and bars are abundantly cheap (price per upgrade) compared to forging. My current +9 gloves are a little bit faster to forge than +7 mail, and I’m not sure +7 mail is worth more worth than +9 gloves. +8 mail is half as fast to forge as +9 gloves though. My initial reason to move to gloves was foolishly to increase ore and bar consumption only because I was tired of having to upgrade mining and smelting so little. But now I think it’s actually also the most price efficient. I’d be glad to hear your test results though.
