    And functioned absolutely fine, I might add.

    If they actually made the specialist thing what it was originally purposed for instead of what it ended up being, things would be better for everyone, literally.

    As does the current system. Some people are unwilling to adapt to change, and therefore will be unable to keep up.

    It is a clear choice.

    Those who are willing to properly adapt will be the new true omnicrafters.

    People shouldn't be expected to level 3 alts to Heavensward and gear them for 3-stars in order to "adapt." That's the best way to alienate your casual crafting base, and your argument flies in the face of what Specialist was meant to be.

    Exactly, specs aren't 'meant to be' omni-crafters, 'casual' players shouldnt have the time and resources to be a true omni-crafter.

    Endgame is not meant to be wholly accessable to the guy who pokes his head in for 30 mins a day.

    This is a game, and a game is meant to be fun, not a job. If the endgame isn't wholly accessable [sic] to that guy he's not going to continue playing.

    Adapt how? make alts characters for crafting? Please explain show me the steps on how to adapt? i am struggling here, even with other specialist being involved can't rely on them making it HQ, or even getting enough stats to craft the specialized item.

    That's what my wife and I did, mainly using GC turn-ins and leves, with our mains crafting the turn-ins.

    Since our alts have their own L8 FC (with Medium house ) that is not the FC our mains are in, mailing the items back and forth was a minor pain, but since it was my wife and I doing it together, it was manageable. Took about three months I think.

    It's funny i do have an alt that i started leveling in crafting a long time ago didn't go that far lol. I am willing to adapt but i need help in how? What i should do? Me and a FC friend trying to progress but we are confused about red scrips to gather materials so we can craft items. Example getting purified coke to make a ingot.
