Its all subjective, depending on your class and playstyle. I didnt figure out what i wanted to de till about level 20 and by then had a massie stockpile of metal. went from 0 to 150 in an hour.
Anyway, the basic logic behind powerskilling is to pick the recipe that : (in no particular order)
a. yields prefeably stackable goods.
b. requires the least amount of materials
c. the materials it does require are inexpesive / easily aquireable.
d. the item is of use.
e. you have fun doing it.
f. is orange or at least yellow (orange always gains skill, yellow quite often, green sometimes, grey never, red you cant do yet)
obviously a b c and f are the ones to highlight for pure skill purposes..
for engineering the best skill up recipes are usually the gun powder lines, the tube lines, the bullet lines, and the grenade lines. I used those mainly with a couple others to stretch me over in places. Hit up the recipe list over there <--- and figure out where ya need to be.
