Craft Skill Limitations

[RushLynx]

Why on Earth did you people try and stop this from happening? YES I want two 100s.

Yeah, most of us were for raising the caps, but wanted to know exactly what their plans were... And voiced our opinions and concerns as to where this was heading... Which in my opinion is what the purpose of this thread was...

I'm all for raising the caps, but I strongly believe that some severe attention needs to be payed to the existing crafting system before they jump in and start adding things... As it stands crafting is in pretty sad shape, letting people level another to 100 really isn't going to fix that...

It's called balance. As things stand, it wouldn't really matter if we could skill all crafts to 100. But imagine for a moment, what if they started caring about crafting again, and they started giving crafts synths that replaced the old money makers. I'll tell you exactly what will happen. You'll get money synth A. You will rejoice. Then, once you realize that all the extra competition is flooding the AH, you'll start getting bitter. Unless you're a cook or alchemist and are the extra competition in the other crafts.

It's a complicated issue. It was for the best that they stop, take a step back, and consider everything. And make no mistake, there is a lot of "everything" to consider. Crafting was/still sorta is a very important part of the FFXI experience. It needs work to recover from the level cap raise.

raise the cap!

I like this idea, but what it actually comes down too prolly been said multiple times here, crafting is now useless gear wise, food/fishing/medicines/ bolts anything like that with craft its an okay craft but we need more gear, more craftable gear. Not gear to just have gear, but better gear worth crafting

Yeah sorry, that was a terrible explanation as to why I can't have my second 100 because of people like you whining. You used a buzz word and then rambled about some hypothetical situation without a structured argument leading up to how it would come to be.

Try again harder if you want, but I'm really hoping we get dual 100s in July.

[Godofgods]

actuly coldbrand, his point is quite valid. your the one whinning lol

[Cljader1]

I agree with coldbrand, godofgods you are the one thats whinning

[GlobalVariable]

Yeah everyone else is out to stop you all from having dual 100's and crying their eyes out that it's coming eventually. /rolleyes.

[Kikkyo]

I'm pretty much with everyone else who thinks that other things should be focused on first. Dual 100's isn't going to matter much to anyone if you're not able to use them for anything worthwhile.

Do this, fixing crafting is another issue all together, but being able to take two crafts up to 100 is a god-sent.
