You all keep pushing crafting as a service, and i agree, it's nice. But it's not the end all crafting bible. Crafting as a service only calculates you doing one of each recipe. But there's one main problem with this.

A lot of people do leves, which is way more than one of each item in the recipe log. A lot of people will waste materials on one item several times trying to HQ it for their own or a friend's use. A lot of people will make items or materials in HQ to sell on the market. Again, more than one.

So yes, crafting as a service is nice. But only as a very, very, very, very general overview. I assume that when I'm done I'll probably use way more copper and iron than it says just because I'm sure I've already surpassed its total.
