Recipe changes in 1.19

[Eresse]

No more fine sand sold at NPC... Goodbye mass production shards!

all i can do is sit back and laugh and say this is what people have been talking about from the first time they mentioned the streamlining of recipes. unless they increase the amount of sp per synth alot of people that just think they hate crafting now are really gonna hate it after the patch.

if you don't believe me just look at weaver.

before with 2 cotton bolls you made 12 yarn...it takes 4 yarn to make 3 cloth. that means 2 cotton bolls makes you 9 cloth. that is 9 parts for a finished gear.

after the patch 2 cotton bolls make you 1 yarn....it takes 2 yarn to make one cloth. this means now it is going to take you 4 cotton bolls to make 1 cotton cloth. that gives you one part for a finished gear.

people are looking at the changes and saying ohhhh simplification. if you look at the numbers it will take you 18x the amount of synths to make the same amount of materials. if i can get enough materials for a grind today in 1 hour you will be working for 18 hours after the patch to get the same amount of materials.

unless they boost the sp given per synth to 10x what it is now i am really going to feel sorry for everyone that didn't get their crafts ranked before.

Am I looking at this wrong, are arrows a 1:1 ratio now?

Seems when multiples Areca result they put it in the parentheses after result name.

So one arrow per synth?

Eh, personally I'll be spamming stored leves once or twice a week.

Uhh, what? This doesn't affect the leveling speed in any shape or form.. 12 yarns or 1 yarn, exp is exp.

that's my concern atm as well, I'm assuming SE have something planned to substitute the parts grind that's been the mainstay of DoH leveling outside of leves. If not, then new/non-capped crafters is really gonna take a hit on this

it does when yarn is around a level 5 synth and cloth is like 12, but they make gear that is in its 30's. so you are saying that you doing the same low level synth that gives little to no sp is going to be just as fast as making the higher end gear when you are at rank??????? i need some of your drugs.

Definitely not. SE can be dumb but never THAT dumb lol

You can stock up if you grind on materials and you will be able to buy mats easily to grind off of gear. All the random high level recipes that used low level mats to create low level gear were going to become lower level themselves, too.

Not to mention crafting leves will be a lot easier to accrue now.

ok i looked it up

cotton yarn is a rank 12 synth so you can easliy start making it at rank 7 not 5.

cotton cloth is a rank 19 synth so you can easily start making it at rank 12.

cotton cloth is used all the way up to rank 42 items.

are you honestly trying to tell me that doing 18x the amount of synth to get the same amount of materials to grind with at higher levels by making those low level items, which give 0 sp at that point, is not going to slow down the ranking up process?
