I am seriously concert about the RMT at the moment and the way they make my crafting hard to levelFleece and diremite web are hard to obtain. Farm them? Bots got that under control... Buy? It cost too much and I don't want to give money to bots or RMT! And the shards, I can't even craft a lot anymore, I miss shards. I want to gather them, but 1 shard at a time, 3 when I can use my skill once in a while... And we need like 4-5 shard for one recipe?! I can farm shard for hours and have enough only to craft a little bit.
Do you plan to do something about that? Can we gather fleece and diremite web? Can we buy them to an NPC? The fact that the only way to get them is to kill the specific mob, RMT and bots are glad to take that market.
And for Shard, maybe 1-15 gatherer get 1 shard per hit, 16-30 get 2 per hit, 30-45 get 3 per hit, and 45+ get 4? Something like that...
Anyway, hope you can win the race against those RMT and Bots!! The game is great!
