One of my main points on this is the fact that someone that spends most of their time raising their crafts up to make the best gear you can for your character and Linkshell, is wasted time now, or will be after the update, basically crafting system after the patch will allow anyone without all the skills to make the same pieces as someone that did actually spend time leveling up the subs to make stuff. Prices are about to get retarded on items, alot of the mobs now will be over camped and some stuff will be just stupid hard to get because of the reducing of materials, so yes they give you more space in your retainer and inventory, but now your gonna have to fight other players for the reduced items your gonna need to make stuff.
