You should probably use 40 gem items, since that's what you'll want to be forging.

You'll never reallyneed more than one ring of wizardry, so that's not a big deal. The thing that is a big deal is the ability to permanently boost your blood slave income by 7 per turn for every turn that you are forging items.

So your grand master plan, which generally requires Construction 8, Alteration 9, and a heavily Astral four armed pretender (no four armed pretenders start with any Astral magic) is generating a total of 6 to 10 Astral Pearls a turn.

No, it's generating 7*n blood slaves per turn, where n is the number of turns that you've spent forging soul contracts. And since astral pearls are still evailable by the hundreds to the water nations, the cost in pearls becomes much less of an issue.
