Fall back and regroup: time for crafting autoleveller?

[Peregrine]

That's right, and I do agree that the crafting system needs to be looked at, but peregrine's idea of turning the entire thing into an insta-bake oven purely out of spite is hardly the way to do it.

Easy bake oven's worthless if you can't afford the ingredients.
Maybe you like to mindlessly spam cheap mats because you know you could never cut an XI system where crafters can show the money and blow through 100 levels of something that took you a year and a half to afford in 4 weeks.

Don't drag everyone down to drone status just for the opportunity to keep up.
