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.
