How to Get lv100 Diligence

Hey guys,
I was wondering what's the fastest way to get lv100 Diligence.
I heard that by learning/unlearning crafting is the fastest way, but it costs a "lot" of mesos.
Can anyone tell me how much mesos it would take exactly?
And also, mind telling me exactly how it's done?
I never really got too deep into the Traits system/ professions.

EDIT: Someone already linked it... Feel free to ask me questions by the way.

Ppl forgot to add having part time job mules can help too to make it cheaper.

Yeah there are Guides on Basilmarket. They are the smaller text links stickied on front of each individual section. You can also click the "Maplestory" link at the top left of your screen to see them all.

[quote=sadface3]It will take you about 100~200m mesos o.0 ?
idk ask someone else for the cost but the procedure is that you get mining and jewel crafting (because those are the easiest to level) and level them both by refining stuff etc then using the bear potions to reset your fatigue continue this till you max out both professions, quit both professions and repeat. The reason this works is because you get large amounts of diligence every time you level a profession regardless of whether or not you've maxed out your daily diligence.[/quote]

I currently have lv1 Mining and lv1 Acc Crafting.
How do I get these bear potions? Are they available from the Profession town via an npc?

[quote=Koncept]@HerroDer: so what does "double mastery" mean?[/quote]

Everyone once in a while you get double experience for doing some profession-related action (i.e. make an earring, mine some ore, etc.). That's what double mastery refers to.

I reached 100 diligence mostly as a side effect while training for willpower.

Buy lots and lots of opal ore and turn them into opals to train mining. After that, turn the opals into arrows to train smithing (and diligence). Repeat this process forever and you should end up with level 60~70 willpower and level 100 diligence. I don't know the exact cost, but it'll be around 100~200m.

A huge part of the cost comes from super moo. If you decide to only train a little every day it will take much longer and be much cheaper. Of course, each opal ore costs 2k, so it's not like they're exactly cheap.

If you don't care at all about willpower, you can try to buy pre-forged bars/jewels, but the higher-end ones (like gold) tend to be overly expensive and you generally don't see many lower-end ones (opal or bronze plate) for sale in the FM. In general, a forged opal is cheaper than making one yourself.

Of course, you could also do all the mining yourself. Then training to 100 diligence is free and will take you over a year If you do decide to do this, I recommend using mules to make the forged opals and then smithing the opals on your main character.

@Koncept 1% more on your scrolls every 10 levels

OP: What some people do to max diligence in a day is they get crafting, get it to level 10 and then forget crafting. Every level gained in crafting gives a certain amount of diligence and it can exceed the daily amount.

It was around 200-300, iirc

@Koncept: % chance increase for scrolls but special ones, i.e, clean slates
