Guide to ESO gold making in 2026: transmute crystals, building basic weapons, transmuting them into Potent Neon Crooks, and deconstructing for passive gold.

## Key Takeaways

- Increased transmute crystal limits make passive gold farming through this method far more lucrative than before.
- Deconstructing transmuted weapons is the key step that yields Potent Neon Crooks.
- Neon Crook drop rates are inconsistent, so yields vary, ranging from roughly 30-40 to 62 per batch of 78 weapons.
- Selling Neon Crooks on the trading market is the final step that converts materials into gold.

## What the video covers

- Transmute crystal caps have increased: 1,500 without ESO Plus and 3,000 with ESO Plus, versus 500 previously.
- Players who farm their own sets accumulate transmute crystals passively while playing, especially with PvP rewards like the Ventrancy battle pass.
- The most profitable use of transmute crystals is making Potent Neon Crooks, which sell for around 9,000 gold each.
- Method: craft basic traitless weapons at a blacksmith station, transmute them at a transmute station to change the trait, then deconstruct them to obtain Neon Crooks.
- Reconstructing items instead of deconstructing them returns transmute crystals rather than Neon Crooks, so deconstruction is required.
- Transmute stations can be found in Sirodiil, in guild halls, or in Clockwork City with the DLC.
- The creator transmuted 78 weapons and obtained 62 Potent Neon Crooks, roughly half a million gold worth at current prices.
- Keep inventory space free, since building and transmuting dozens of items requires significant capacity.
- Sales began within hours of listing, with about 10 of 62 sold early on, implying roughly 500-600k gold total.
- The creator frames this as a passive gold method that yields around 500k gold over a month of normal play.

## Questions about this video

How many transmute crystals can a player hold in this video's guide?

The video says players without ESO Plus can hold 1,500 transmute crystals, and ESO Plus subscribers can hold 3,000. The previous limit was 500 crystals for non-subscribers.

Why must weapons be deconstructed rather than reconstructed?

According to the video, reconstructing an item returns transmute crystals instead of the Potent Neon Crooks. Deconstructing the transmuted weapon is what yields the Neon Crooks.

How much gold did the creator make from this method?

From 78 transmuted weapons, the creator obtained 62 Potent Neon Crooks, which they estimate is more than half a million gold. Early sales were ongoing at the time of the video, with roughly 600k projected.

Speaker A

What's up, guys? Welcome to another Golden Farm video. This one is quite old, but a lot of things have changed like in the last half an year, and I think it's very important to revisit because now we can make much more money

00:18

Speaker A

that we could do in the past. It's regarded, of course, the transmute station and how to make money with it.

00:25

Speaker A

So, guys, as you know, in the past, if you didn't have like the ESO Plus, you could only have like 500 transmute crystals. That have changed, and now, if you don't have, you can have 1,500 transmute crystals. And

00:40

Speaker A

if you have the Plus, you can have 3,000 transmute crystals. This is more than the double, and is a way that you can really, really improve your profit.

00:53

Speaker A

The thing is, if you are like me that normally you don't use the transmute crystals because you farm the sets you need because I normally do that. You end up like easily playing the game and having a bunch of transmute crystals

01:06

Speaker A

like I have right now. I'm full of them. 3,000 transmute crystals. That's a lot.

01:12

Speaker A

I can do a bunch of things with them. I have all the sets I need, so I don't need to use them. And if you continue to play, you can end up even with more because you cannot put here, so you have

01:24

Speaker A

them in your inventory. For example, I just continue playing and I have a bunch of them. So, I have much more than 3,000 transmute crystals. Another tip, if you play PvP, you can earn even more because if you go to the ventrancy, that

01:42

Speaker A

is like the new battle pass of PvP, you will end up gaining more 300 and a few more around the corners. So, this means that you can really have a bunch of transmute crystals [music] just from playing the game. And this is the

01:58

Speaker A

point here. This is to show you how to make gold in a passive way. You just play the game, you continue to earn transmute crystals, and you get to a point that you have a bunch of them.

02:09

Speaker A

So, guys, you have all this amount of transmute crystals, and now you question, "What should I do to get money?" Of course, the correct answer would be neon crooks, the potent, because it's more expensive. You can see now the prices are around 9,000.

02:25

Speaker A

Normally, it's 10. I don't know, it's a bit lower. But, they can give us two amber. This is normally very expensive, but it's the only part that is expensive is if you had Let me search. If you had

02:41

Speaker A

the umbrick umbrick amber. I don't know the name. Doesn't matter. But, the problem is that every time you deconstruct an item, they will not give you this. Will give you just the powder that you need 10. So, it's not

02:56

Speaker A

profitable. You have to go right straight to potent neon crooks. So, these are the things that we are going to build and then deconstruct to have.

03:07

Speaker A

So, guys, in this video, I'm going to show you all the process of making all of this, and I have like a a little surprise in the middle of the video, a PvP thing.

03:16

Speaker A

And I'm going to show you for you to don't commit some errors. So, when you are going to you don't want to do a reconstruction. Because if you do a reconstruction, you came here for for example, if you want to do this item and

03:31

Speaker A

you put neon crooks, this will give you back transmute crystals. Will not give you the neon crooks. Okay? So, the process is to build a weapon, like basic weapon, without a trait, and then we come to the transmute station, and we

03:45

Speaker A

transmute. We just change the trait, and then we go back and we deconstruct. To do this process, you just need a blacksmith station and a transmute station. You can have a transmute station in Clockwork City, but you need

03:59

Speaker A

the DLC, I think. But, normally, you can find these transmute stations in Siro Deal and in your guild. Try to see if you have one in your guild. So, these are the two main things that you need.

04:11

Speaker A

One more thing before you start to build, make sure you have a good capacity in your inventory because you will need it because right now I think I'm going to build around 80 uh pieces of weapons for then to

04:24

Speaker A

transmute and then to have the neon crooks. So, I'm now starting to build them.

04:30

Speaker A

I'm just going to go for 80. Okay, we have them. And then we go to the transmute station.

04:45

Speaker A

What do you want? And here the process can be a little bit slow because you have to do one at a time.

04:53

Speaker A

So, I will take my time doing this and I will come back to you guys.

04:58

Speaker A

So guys, we already have transmuted all our items. It's 78 weapons we have here transmuted.

05:07

Speaker A

Now we are going to see the result, how many neon crooks we can have from these.

05:13

Speaker A

I would say at least a 30, 40 in a maximum because doesn't drop all the time. So, it's a bit a little bit inconsistent, but let's see how many we can get.

05:26

Speaker A

So guys, just a quick pause here in the video. If you enjoy my videos and PvP content in general, my channel is for you guys.

05:37

Speaker A

I'm going to leave one maybe two kills here for you guys. Let's see if I can get these two guys here.

05:56

Speaker A

One. And two, I got them both despite being a bit silly and missing a little bit.

06:06

Speaker A

But this is what I do in my channel. I do PvP content and of course my guide videos. Consider to subscribe.

06:16

Speaker A

So, here we go guys. Let's see how many we can get. I would like to at least 40.

06:21

Speaker A

40 would be amazing because 40 would mean around 400,000 gold. So, let's see. I'm going to deconstruct.

06:35

Speaker A

And we got 62, guys. 62. This is more than half a million gold like guaranteed, guys. It's unbelievable.

06:46

Speaker A

So, guys, if I go to my materials now, I have 62 potent nean crooks. This is insane, guys. I'm going to put this for sale because normally I like to show you everything and I hope to come with a

06:59

Speaker A

bunch of good results. So, guys, I already have listed my 62 potent nean crooks.

07:08

Speaker A

And let's see if I can sell them like right away. I'm going to make I put different prices, but you can put the prices you want, guys. It's up to you. I just want to sell them fast to

07:21

Speaker A

show you the profit. Let's see what tomorrow brings in terms of gold. So, guys, this was just a few hours after I listed my items. As you can see, I sold around 10 or something like that. So, it's

07:36

Speaker A

still more 52 to go. This means that I will get around 600k with this method, a little bit more, but because I had more transmute crystals than normal. You will have around 500k like in seconds if you do this method.

07:57

Speaker A

You just continue playing. This is a passive method. You just And by the end of the month or something like that, you can do like 500k gold easily.

08:08

Speaker A

By conclusion, guys, I made this video because in the past we could do a little bit of money with this method, but now we can do much, much more. That's why was the reason that I make this video.

08:20

Speaker A

You have a bunch of other golden methods in my channel, and or if you like PvP content, consider to subscribe.

08:28

Speaker A

And I see you in the next one.
