Ishgard Restoration makes leveling DoH classes a joke.

I am not going to say it is a joke. But never have I seen so many level ups. Even when new expansions drop and people have stockpiled the right turn ins for GC or before they nerfed leves in HWs when everyone was turning in ARR ones for the same xp. I don't know the xp ratio compared to old content anymore. But the crafts are super easy without any limits and the mats are super easy to get. Generally leve mats are the more expensive items.



But clearly they want everyone to be 80 omnicrafters. Which is not that big a deal. The real gate to crafting at max level is how much work you want to put into gear.

Honestly with them making the lv80 omnicraft easy to obtain, as well as your lv80 trigatherers, no one as any excuse to not participate in base Restoration and claim they are denied or gated from rewards. Honestly I think it's brilliant, and per Yoshi-P's comment in the thread about the wanderer problem, it's only going to get more divided so your high level, real end game crafters will have their particular part of it to claim. At that point, people still can't complain because they've been given all the tools and means to reach that level as well.
