The I70 Ehcatl Smithing Gloves and Ixal dailies.

Hmm... just looked it up, and it says it isn't desynthisizable. Shame. Could have been another way to get Fieldcraft IIIs. Of course, I don't know how much these cost.

Its because the quests are supposed to have a bit of challenge to them, and they decided to do this by removing 1 piece of gear (essentially). If the gloves could be used, that handicap would not only be gone, but the quests would become even easier.

You can only get the gloves after you max out your Ixali rank. To get them, you will have to have already done all the quests with whatever original difficulty created by having to use crappy crafting gloves. Having the daily quest for knots being a little easier by using gloves with actual stats on them seems like a reasonable reward for having maxed out your rank with that beast tribe.

Oh I had little hope that they would work for the quest items, this thread was made as more of a suggestion to see if they can change them to work with the quests.

i do agree with this though! would be cool to be able to use them like yep even though i am done i am still goin!

Someone brought up the point that it would only help make the quests easier to level up other crafting quests. I would like to counter that point by saying it's already ridiculously easy to level up other jobs with these quests as it is.

You need to be lvl 50 to wear the gloves

But you don't need to wear the glove or be on a lv50 crafter to get the reward

True, I forgot about that. Either way, it's a stupid reason to not be able to use the gloves for the Ixali quests.

are the Ixali quests repeatable, once you get to max rank reputation?

All dailies are, but the ixali have the added incentive with the oakknots...still wish I could turn in old ixali coins for the new ones.

I recently hit max rank for the Ixal Beast Tribe and bought the il70 Ehcatl Smithing Gloves and was a little disappointed that I couldn't use these as a replacement for Ehcatl Wristgloves for crafting the quest items.

Since the Ixal dailies in my opinion have more incentive to keep repeating to exchange the Oaknots for crafting mats, it'd like it to be possible to use the il70 Ehcatl Smithing Gloves to craft the quest items over the Ehcatl Wristgloves so that I do not need to keep equipping them just for these dailies(And so I can get rid of them, lol).

Thanks for reading!

The other problem is that the glove slot is pretty much equal statwise to the head slot. Except Artisan's Specs, i70, have 4 Craftmanship, 39 Control and 3 CP. These gloves, also i70, have the same, except no CP.

Even if you look at the crafted i55 gear, NQ head AND gloves are both 2 CP and 27 Control.

ie I think these gloves are missing some CP.
