Three Star Master Recipes (Difficulty)

[AznAirLines]

I'm a "builder of the realm" and I'm actually happy that it's difficult to craft HQ gear. It actually adds value to the gear you craft (even though crafted gear is not close to end game gear). Also, in order to have a good chance of HQ you would need to use HQ materials. Kind of makes sense to me

I'd agree with you about it being good it being difficult, if the gear was i100, but it's not. You can simply buy Myth gear for 1/5th the effort, and you can spend all that time and effort to craft a 3-star item, only to have it NQ, and be no better than i80.

For the insane difficulty of the crafts for 3-star items, and the huge expense in myth materials, they are nothing more than a novelty.

Except overmelded HQ is way better than myth, and while it's not easy to HQ them, it's not nearly as difficult as people make it out to be. People made these exact same arguments about Vanya and such back in 2.0, the only people who cared were the rich people and the progression raiders competing for world firsts where they need every bit of advantage as soon as possible.

In 2.0, most crafted i70 gear only cost 1.5-3x more in P-tomes than Darklight gear, and is easy to HQ, even if at the bare pre-requisites for Control/Craft. The story is quite different here, and to suggest otherwise borders on white-knighting.
