Odds are the GC enlisted the crafters to produce techniques to create powerful weapons to defend themselves against the empire.

The materials will most likely be what we'll see as "rare" gathered materials in 2.0, since these are suppose to be harder to make I have a feeling that the weaponry we see is somewhat reverse engineered from scavenged parts we fights off military weaponry lol.

I would not mind if we got grade 6 nodes though since grade 5 would make it to easy to obtain these rare materials so I do imagine that perhaps the hamlets will be home to new gathering nodes that will grant each "land" 5-8 new materials to gather or maybe even more lol.
