Low level market seems to be dead

[Rhindas]

I don't understand what the logic is to have crafter classes when the crafted gear is deliberately designed to be inferior to the rest of the game's content. If it's because it's too easy to level up the crafting classes, that's the dev's fault, not ours.

Not to say it's entirely useless, but it's pretty limited. It's not just the low level market that is dying. As it stands, only really accessories have a market since very few dungeons actually drop any and the lv 50 gear has a limited venue as well because it's so easy to get Philosophy seals these days. Dyes are a kind of hit and miss since vendors sell the majority of them, even the beast tribes do too. PvP has seal gear so crafted gear there isn't much used either. It's useful to fill gear gaps but that isn't much adopted by the game's population when you can fill those gaps from NPC vendors.

Furniture is also not really a "thing" yet, though that may change in the future, and I can only hope.

Its like that through the whole game making crafting pointless. The exact reason I stopped crafting..
