I'm going to start off with an example. Say you want a certain set item, we will use Tals gloves.
Hypothetically there are 30 different legendary/set gloves you could get by upgrading a rare item.
30 boots
30 helmets
etc
and say 5 potential belts.
It would be faster to up rare belts to get a tals belt then roll the set item into other pieces until you get the gloves rather than risking a 1/30 chance to get the tals gloves from rare gloves.
I want to come up with a thread for each class to go about the best way to go about getting each set
i.e. Tals Armor (using the hypothetical numbers above)
shard for belts > up rare belts > roll tals belt into other pieces
We would have to take in account for smart loot applying to sharding + cubing rares and not include the crafted sets/legendaries.
I'm throwing this idea out here tonight, if somebody else beats me to it then that's awesome, if not I will slowly start compiling info and anyones help here, giving credit where due.

I like the idea, basically everyone helping to cut costs on all crafting. Still at work, so cant help much now. Hopefully others are open.
Why making unnecessary threads? Just make one spreadsheet.
