Patch 3.1: Crafting Reborn (?)

[Hermaeus_mora1]

I could had sworn that it was 1 not 15 coke per 1800 law. The patch notes never said an amount. So it's safe to say it's 1. So people need 9000 law to have enough for 1 mat. Trust me I hope ur right thou but I didn't see that amount in the notes?

True. I also understood it's 1800 law for 5 coke, for instance.

So how would that help anyone at all??? LOL!!!
Sounds really meaningless... 1800 law is almost like a full bank of 2K, for 1 purified coke??? Which we can't even use to craft ANYTHING???!!!
That's fxxked up... 9K for 5 purified coke for 1 Adam Ingot??!!! And 1 ingot is not even close to 1 gear yet!
I hope it's much more than that! If it's 1800 for 5 coke, at least it's = 1 ingot there, which would make more sense...

No, I think it's 1800 for the 5nq purified cokes

My guess is 1800 for 1. Remember back at ARR release? I don't remember the exact numbers, but I think it was 900 Philosophy Tomes for 1 Philosophy crafting mat - and you needed 9 for almost any 2-star recipe.

Now, apply the usual Heavensward recipe inflation, and 1800 for 1, with 15 total needed for a 2-star recipe, sounds about right...

Especially since there are other ways to get those mats, and they want to keep the gatherers in business. This just allows players a way to make some money off their unneeded Tomestones.

I'm almost positive they were 150 each. It was 1350 per 9, back then. The 2-star items were more costly than their Darklight counterparts in terms of tomes spent but not by *that* much.

Edit: Took several Google search attempts, but they were 125, for 1125 per 9. You can see folks discussing the costs in this thread:

Prior to the 3.1 tripling of red scrip materials per token, 1800 law for one purified coke might actually have made sense! Hopefully it really is 5 purified coke for 1800 law.

In all seriousness, I think it actually depends on the number of players grinding law and what model the developers have in mind. I'm not actually familiar on how long it takes to grind that much or how many players typically grind law, but if they believe that there will be a large enough number to supply the market board, it might really be 1 purified coke per 1800 law. We'll see when the patch launches.
