Supra is the joke in my opinion. It is just about money and not crafting, you dont have to HQ for them. Is about buying demateria if you dont have Desyth high enough.

I still love crafting but demateria has taken it down a notch. RNG is another thing that is too off that I mentioned in a previous post.
I actually stopped at Supra because no way i am spending all that time/money for mastercraft demimaterias. But I still think the amount of Moonstone is way too high, even in terms of seals, if I were to get all tools. It's nothing but a time sink. I wish we had to prove we are good at crafting by mastering a couple of difficult recipies (that don't requrie the same freaking rotation for every class and a bunch of sub-recipies to make the mats) instead of spamming dungeons for turn ins and seals.


That's not even counting the fact that crafting after 50 has no storyline/cutscenes, which was one of the things I loved the most about it. The Weaver's quests are still my favourite amongst all classes. Now there is 0 effort put into that, it's just pure grind with no context to it.
