Crafting Torques

[Demonjustin]

Oh trust me I've no want to ever have to farm boxes in such a way, it's the exact reason I never even tried to get any of the skill up+ gear. That said I know what to expect and I know what the easiest and most sensical way of implementing them is, it would simply follow their already established method of obtaining these items. I'd also love Guild Points as a method for all, but that's probably not going to happen.

Hello, everyone!

As an update to my previous post, the team is working to implement these new torques in the August version update, and they can be obtained through Treasure Caskets dropped by monsters in certain areas when you defeat them.

With the addition of these new torques, we will have to make adjustments to the rate in which existing torques appear in these Treasure Caskets; however, the team will be making it so the rate does not change much for the existing rare items.

Thank you. Its nice to know they'll be caskets, there goes my cynical fishing idea... Sounds like they'll be coming from the same zones other torques drop in?

Anyway, just... just a small follow up, it took me weeks of on and off living in Horutoto(mostly on) to get my Fisher Torque, 'cause completionist... when you say "Adjust", do you mean lower? Cause they seem disturbingly low already lol.

I agree on the states seemingly being low on the torques and its kinda why I thought they should become upgradable or adjust to your current level of your crafting skill as you rank up in your crafts but guess most would be just satisfied as it is, Shrugs?

Didn't see the torques mentioned in the update notes, are they in the game now or were they delayed?

August 2017 woie.

I don't know why the job specific emote torques were included in this discussion (and I apologize for biting the troll bait) but those job torques were released for a little bit of fun, I did my COR one just this week and I very much enjoy tossing a lucky coin up in the air. The requirements are simplistic and the reward isn't the additions to the torque, it was the emote. There was no need for SE to add anything at all to the torques other than unlocking the emote. These Crafting torques are something special and as an un-and-coming Goldsmith at 62 I will spend weeks farming these - only qualm is why couldn't they be added to different caskets? no need for more than 1 torque to drop per zone. There must be some problem with the implementation which is why only half of them were released in the beginning.

August 2017 woie.

well looks like we where both wrong the torques are out there so far confirmed goldsmith in den of rancor and wood in Boyahda Tree

very strange that was left out of the update notes, not that anyone ever reads them......

[Sapphire]

Well true no one reads the notes but they did say items were added. Like the torques. And just like the ones before, they don't tell you were to get them, you kill stuff in GoV zones till someone gets lucky and reports they found them!

Yeah thats just the thing that gets to me no matter how easy it was, why create an armor piece that is not gonna be much use, just to get to the whole point of the emote when they simply should of done a temp KI to hand in on completion instead in order to get the permanent job emote which is the whole point you went after it in the first place. Well my idea is if you or the dev team went to great links to put those torques into the game mise well make them usable again at some point but I guess that's just me and yes this is off topic a bit to the crafting torques but still under a torques thread none the less. :-)
