Will some recipes be made HARDER? [dev1016]

dont count on the glue getting removed

glue is a base material just like nuggets and ingots are

True, but nuggets are also a base material, and nuggets are being removed.

didnt see anything about them being removed
most recipes dont call for them in the final though so maybe thats why you may think so

and if your using cobalt as an example its a bad one....since thatl be a specialy made ingot apperently

ok thats interesting

but it still stands that glue probly wont be removed
since its the ONLY material you really take from alchemy that isnt tiered/a part

Sure, that's reasonable. Perhaps the second ingot would be scale glue instead. All guesswork for us at this point.

My main question is still whether the extremely simple recipes currently in the game will be

1. modified to be made 'harder' (similar to how the 'harder' recipes are being modified to 'easier')?
2. made obsolete by new gear being released?
3. or not being changed at all?

My opinion will be that most will remain unchanged, maybe they can modify some to make them harder if they are in the upper levels.

Then when new recipes are added, I think the plan is to reuse the lower level stuff to use them as mats in those new higher crafts.
