Crafting. Why has no one mentioned that Alchemy is now needed for everything

Every single body piece that you can craft at i90 requires Terminus Putty. Terminus Putty is made by Alchemists. The materials to make your alchemist i70 main hand/head piece require you to be in the Kobold tribe at an unspecified rank just to buy it (the vitriol) as well. So SE's way of making alchemists not useless was to make every other crafter require alchemists?

I don't mind Alchemists being the source of some main crafting mat. Goldsmiths/Weaver/Leatherworker have had their glory for a long time now. While they are at it, they should improve Blacksmiths and Armorer as well.

Besides that, I'm really disappointed they still haven't buffed potions though. People have been requesting lower cooldowns on potions for a long time now.

Damn. I guess I will be working on this one. GRRRR.

Great to see the alchemy love. I personally made over 4m in 2.1 with alchemy alone and I look forward to making even more.

My point is that having every single job rely on one job to do any of the new crafts is straight ridiculous. Goldsmith was OP before since every class uses accessories, but this is going a few leagues beyond that.

It's good - Potions and whatnot are 99% useless outside of Leve fodder.

Considering that alchemist's use otherwise is just tomes for ACN based jobs and shrubberies, I'm ok with this.

I like most posters here am ok with this. Alchemy wasnt great for omni-crafters pre 2.2 so to see them getting love is good. Plus this is the history of MMOs, once something seems weak and is complained about enough it gets over powered in a future patch.

Mega potions are always needed.

You mean you don't like having a 3 and a half? minute cool down Second Wind? That could save your life when something tickles you a little too hard.
