An undiscussed topic about Maker

You're not going to get 40,000 wisdom ores on your own. Same goes for STR, DEX, etc - assuming you get one every 5minutes, that's 12 an hour. Don't have to do that math on that one to know that = suck. Even Wolf Spiders don't drop them that much, so in reality it's probably even more bleak. I'm talking in terms of mass-grading here, not "hey, I want to make an equip" (and APQ is a special exception, as Diamonds from it are the only mass-dropped gems in the game).

Well, in just the wisdom crystal ore's i've gotten from regular grinding and farming I've currently amassed over 300 refined wisdom crystals. If I were actively pooling them from guildies and allies I'd probably have 10 times that easily.
