    WAI.

    This is not a bug, and should not have been posted here. This is a whine. Could a mod please move this discussion to the general or crafter forums?


    That said, non-crafters need the items too. They need them for getting gil. Restricting loot to just crafters is silly.

    THAT said, it would be nice if the crafting mats were removed from the dungeons' boss chests. Either they should be given in addition to actual gear, or they should be available in the side chests with the potions. Getting crafter materials should not be in place of actual gear. That's just lame and makes getting the 2.3 "Divine" glamour sets nearly impossible. A new 50 will also have a ton of trouble getting Myth gear because of this change, making ST the only real way for new 50s to gear up when the 2.4 dungeons should have been a legitimate option.

    Someone that doesn't know the difference between "need" and "greed" probably shouldn't post here.

    Ok, then by your own words, you should stop posting.

    Nobody has any kind of priority on material drops.

    How is picking need to sell the item on the MB any different than picking need to craft something which will be sold at the MB? That's hypocrisy par excellance.

    Then please explain to me why a crafter needs to be able to need the item? Isn't the material just used to create things to sell, which is actually greed and not need?

    But how can u be sure that a crafter would "NEED" a mat and craft just for them? I mean, according to you, I have every craft at lv50 and could "NEED" all mats, so I go and craft something just to make money. My need (crafting and selling) doesn't take precedence over other ppl's greed (they can either sell or ask a friend to craft for them equip that they will use). The only way to make sure your idea would work is if the mats were untradeable AND the crafted stuff was untradeable too, to make sure that the crafters would actually use the mats for themselves. And I don't think u want that, do u?

    BTW, I hate this idea of yours.
