    2,100 Shards?

    Spicy Tomato Relish:

    Dzemael Tomato
    Cinnamon
    Table Salt
    Dark Vinegar

    Fire Shard x11
    Water Shard x10


    So that's going to be 2,100 shards per stack or in other words 50k in shard costs alone. With capped shards I can make 4.5 stacks and be zeroed out.

    Why so many damned shards for consumables? >_<

    You can't even get shards all that quickly as you took breaking clusters and crystals into them away. You are basically bankrolling the gilsellers operations as they known the money is currently in bot farming shards and selling them to players. Thanks SE.

    Besides this small things love the rest of the patch though. Look forward to a bigger and better things.

    It's an ingredient, not a meal.

    Every crafter class is getting a new 10/11 shard recipe.

    Food is already expensive because of the compounding shard/crystal costs of intermediary ingredients.

    There's really no getting around that SE hates crafters. If it weren't for the RMT bots, shards/crystals would be 10x more expensive.

    Attitude is half the game. If you can't get over yourself, you're not at the top.

    I imagine that the new ventures will essentially turn our retainers into sanctioned crystal-gathering bots. That's certainly what I'm planning to use mine for 90% of the time.

    This. I might even buy another retainer and name it Crystal Slave.

    Either typo.
    Or SE is in cahoots with RMT in secret.
    Or SE just likes tormenting crafters.
    Developers were tipsy at that moment in time.

    All in all I had a laugh XD This will probably be changed considering the use duration and mats needed ratio.
