The daily mining maps pretty much cover the level 1-4 gems/plates though, and it won't actually take that much longer to upgrade forging with those. At level 7 I still get 3/4 of the exp from level 1 difficulty stuff.
Also, in the 30-odd plates I made before I got locked out, I didn't get any magic powders. Glad I stockpiled those in decent quantities.
I got up to level 4 in Jewel crafting and level 4 in mining and I only got 1 powder, a brown one.
