I have to disagree the crafting system to me is done perfectly people craft to make money and influence the economy it shouldn't be easy or everyone would be a crafter and there would be no importance in it. The fact you like to bang on mobs and get sp quickly doesn't mean crafting should be easier because you don't enjoy it. i personally enjoy crafting the only reason im playing the game now as i wait for the revamp of the battle and class system.
