SQUARE-ENIX, remember not to marginalise crafters

[Gracious]

they hate you ingame too, they just using you for your craftins! heh jk sorta. buts its amazing how much closet crafting hate there is here.

Noone on Saronia hates Mikita... She's like a ray of sunshine in a cold dark world.

I like crafting....to a point, but I dislike the speed at which I level compared to my combat classes.

Agreed, it seems most of the hate here is coming from people who don't like crafting. Just because person A doesn't like to craft and thinks its pointless doesn't mean person B feels the same. I love crafting, helping people that need things and repairing stuff. Not every crafts for their own selfish reason or just to repair their own stuff or make money.

I actually don't really make any money because I make stuff for my shell, and repair stuff for little gil because I just want to help people. So seeing people put down crafter's, who for the most part want to help people like them, and say that crafter's are less because they aren't fighters like them seems rude to me.

Kai you know me, I am always trying to help you out when I can with either moss, alumen, or wings of whatever you need. You are truly valued and these jerks who think that crafters are crap, I hope the crafters that read these forums are reading these threads to stop doing repairs on their gear so that they have to wait a long time for repairs and/or get expensive somewhat repairs to their gear.

After reading several post here, i'm sad to see people putting down DoH or DoL and the hate that DoH and DoL have gathered. Personally to me i think that DoW, DoH and DoL are all important in their different aspect. By the way it works, i see the different type of discipline helping out each other and this add to the "fun" factor of the game and increases the amount of interaction in the community.

Yes any of the discipline of DoW or DoM can fight but without the support of DoH, everyone will be wearing outleved gear which is worn out too due to no repair from DoH. Have you ever tried repairing your gear at the Repair Npc? It cost much more than being repaired by a DoH. For example, repairing a vintage robe can easily cost you more than 10k @ the repair npc but instead of doing that you can find any weaver which they will kindly to do that for just 1k and trust me they don't do it for the gils but rather they do it out of good-will.

This in turn leads to discipline of DoH needing DoL to rank up to a certain rank to make/repair the gear. Having DoL around is needed as this is the time which the discipline of DoL comes in by providing the discipline of DoH with the neccessary materials for both ranking up and making/repairing of equipment.

So guys although you might prefer DoW over all others discipline. Try to see things in a light and learn to appreciate the good of both the discipline of DoH and DoL and the amount of effort that they had put in. Lastly i'm sorry about the amount of wordings but this is my personal experience after all the time spend in ff14.

DoH and DoL do need to have some changes made to them, but I do love them and will continue to prepare for my PS3 launch starter shop in the mean time.

I would like to see:

DoL Main Storyline Missions
DoH Main Storyline Missions
DoW/DoM Main Storyline Missions

This makes much more sense to me. Also the added content by splitting them would be more interesting as well.

[Kailea_Nagisa]

main story content for a crafting or gathering class would not really make much sense

You don't make any sense, please elaborate.

[WulfgarIcewind]

What now? Hate on gatherer next??

You guys are a bunch of d-bags and need to get a life, this game is not WOW, this is FFXIV and it has a more complex community style of gaming, everyone has their own jobs to do.

Just like "make love not warcraft"

how about "make ffXIV not WOW"


Goodbye!

Well for instance, the main story for each city, progressing through it as a crafter or gatherer does not make sense. I would like to see more quests and things done for crating and gathering classes, but being part of the main story just does not fit
