3.3 patch notes Full

[FinaSel]

To be honest I am not all too happy about the new crafting updates.
I just can't help but wonder "what was all the work to gather all those items and scrips to get that gear for?"

I know no one "forces" us to get new newest gear, but I just feels like after working very hard to gather mats and make the highest level crafting gear, the requirements to make it / get it get nerfed super hard.

I think it's good that they added new gear and new methods to acquire it, but why severely lower the requirements to get the old "top-quality" gear? Why not just keep it the same?

The other updates look really nice, but some stuff made me lose interest in crafting / gathering in general. If things can be acquired so easily now, what was the point in working hard to get them before?

And removing specializations? I know a lot of people wanted this, but I don't understand why. Is it really so difficult to find someone who has a specialization and ask them to make it for you? I never had any trouble with this.
Personally, I like having specializations because it added a little uniqueness to people's crafting abilities. Why is it necessary to remove them?

I liked to main crafter and was trying to get the red-scrip gear for gatherer. It is too easy now. And I feel like there is even no point in getting the next level of gear either. Now I don't know what I want to do.

Is there anyone else who understands this feeling?

EDIT: I have a better idea for an update: Remove this crazy-short character limit in the forums.

It seems like they're removiing specialist requirements from old recipes, so it's accessible by more people. Most of the recipes added in this patch will most likely be specialist though. They always do this. Keep things exclusive for a while, then make it more accessible later, when it's no longer new content.
