Power to the crafters!

FF14 is a game that is heavy on crafting, a lot of work, A LOT OF WORK, goes into lvling these ranks. I dont feel its fair, or balanced that you give away infinitly better gear in leves, those grand company points, and etc... You should only give away, or allow people to purchase an item used in the crafting process to create this wonderful gear. Then the crafters dont become just a tool for repair.

And I'm open for compromise, but the crafted gear should be the best you can attain no question.

Think back to all those games we have played were the recipies in your crafting job dont even compare to the ones youd get in a quest or raid. Wouldnt it be nice for a change.

yes , i actually agree on that idea. because with new change in 1.19 ~ crafters will die .. and all gears will be easy to be crafted and having extra defense on gears dont make big different if you DD or caster job. so HQ value getting down...etc

Come on people, if you love crafting, or even if you hate it but like the challenge, or if you have another opinion like getting rid of crafting or whatever please reply. This is what I and Qfox thinks about it and I'd like to know the majority. Crafting is on the road to becoming meaningless like in everyother game no question, should we change that or let things continue on downhill. This is probly the last chance to decide which way your going to take on this fork in the road.
