    I would never have gotten my BSM Master I if not for the fact that I could buy 2 Coke for every 1 Ixali Oaknot.

    The recipes shouldn't change (I say this as a BSM/ARM primary crafter), but the conversion rates for acquiring them should. At the GC Quartermaster, the exchange rate should be upped from 1500 for 1 to 1500 for 10. The exchange rate from Ixali Oaknots should increase from 2 to 10. When dropped in dungeons, it should be in a stack of 10. This is to better reflect how much Coke is actually needed in a recipe.

    In an ironic twist, Cooking Sherry, which does drop in sets of 10, is only needed in quantities of 1 for the craft required to get CUL Master I. Which seems silly, I mean, that it would drop in a stack of 10. It's almost as if the crafting mats got balanced on two different fronts, causing the balance to tip too far to the other side.

    This way, Coke will flood the market, causing the price to plummet and make 9x Coke negligible rather than frustrating.
