whats the point of crafting...

Have fun wasting your time crafting, though, only to have the market eat your profits via taxes while my BLM speeds through WP, making 25k + gil drops each run in 15 minutes.

In 15 minutes a crafter can easily make 15 items, put them on Market Board and come back later for a couple 100k's of profit. While the items are selling nothing is stopping you from farming WP .

And BTW, 2 stars crafted gears sell because they are much better than DL and cratfed accessories are quite close to ilevel90.
