That is PART of the issue if you are low ranked crafters, what say to the higher ranked crafters? it is definitely not the level requirements and all this low ranked crafters will eventually be higher ranked crafters and stop supplying for the low ranked, when the times comes and this game doesn't receive so many players injection anymore, it will come back to the start where low ranked gears will be hard to come by for the newcomers because after all, why make something that is only 5k profit when u can make easy 1m profit for the same amount of work?
