Alternative Crafting Changes Proposal

I like a lot of your suggestions. The only one that gives me pause is the lower level mats used in higher level recipes. We have that going on now with certain mats, like sheepskin, and what it ends up causing is a huge inflation to the price of a low level mat that starting crafters simply can't afford.

Agreed it would be an area that would have needed some work, that's why I said to increase the amount needed on hi rank items to a point where it forces down the cost.
(Drop rates increased, amount produces per craft increased to stabilise the prices at a sensible level, are all other options to balance it.)

But more people would see an chance to make some gil if the wards were better or players have some sort of requests bored. (once we start to have more players and gil sinks that is more so true).
And if the items are needed for End game good gear, they would have a demand in the market and a need in crafting.

To add too it, I am here to enjoy a vast game with large amounts of people ! Not a game of so called Elites who are being greedy in a game ! If players walk into a game where they can get gear/items/weapons at a reasonable rate , plus get into crafting without having to find parts that were a cool thought but too much to deal with in the long run , and to top it off this will do more for the Bazaar market than it is now ! There will still be items that will not be easy to craft and items in a craft that will be needed to be farmed though LS work that will be sold to make good gil ! In the long run , you are upset about nothing more than your loss of shortage of crafters in our economy and now there will be a healthy amount of crafting getting into it !
