Crafting is dead

[DarthBuzzer]

You spent 20m to level 3 classes to 60 and gear them? >.>

I spent 5m and maxxed all gatherers/crafters and made the amount already back by selling random stuff (and got all master III books 2 weeks in 3.0 just with CUL)

But yeh, the prices for materials that are only needed to craft more crafters equip are... well only one word describes it well: ridiculous at this point

*sigh*

I spent 60 million from 50-60 and managed to hold Server First and Server's only Grandmaster for 4 days running. I made it back almost 4 times over due to my investment.

Selling exclusively to crafters and gathers, who are going to turn around and sell to crafters and gatherers as well, who are going to turn around and sell to no one. The tracks end there in a chasm. That's where the train derails, and crafting dies in a smoking abyss.

TLDR: When people have their AFs, the endgame crafting market - the very idea of which is a mirage - will vanish like the smoke it is. There is nothing to craft with those AFs.
