Since this went public, fleece market board orders spiked to 214 orders with multiple stacks of 99 on Sargatanas.

There is an insane amount of Fleece on Sargatanas and I'm sure there always was. The problem was it was too easy to monopolize it. Hopefully this eliminates that problem.

everyone should just stay away from the markets for a couple days, lol. Of course players that don't come to the forums or read updates will buy them

Actually, take a very good look at the boards before the update. It may just be that they are over correcting their position, meaning prices can be lower now than after the update.

You are right, it isn't broken. It's easily abused right now and it is being abused. I took a 34 Conjurer to Dragonhead tonight and I farmed fleece for 2 hrs, killed 150 or so Karakul and got around 60 Fleece. I can tell you it was a good feeling to be able to gather that fleece. Had I tried that a week ago I wouldn't have gotten a single fleece. I would have had the Karakul pulled out from under me on every turn and there wouldn't have been a heck of a lot I could have done about it.

As a Weaver I can say I do appreciate this change. I know it will result in more people will level Weaver, more people will remove my unique qualification as a level 50 Weaver. The reason for crafting is to be self sufficient and that goes for all players. I'd prefer it if every player had a level 50 Weaver. It might not be good for me but I'd say it's good for the game if everyone can complete all the content.

I tried this tonight about 5 minutes before the update and the prices had not changed...too bad

I never had to farm a single Karakul. I never even had to use fleece to get to 50. I did leves that gave me fleece from 45-50. I got over a stack of fleece in a super short time and got from 45-50 in the process:
