Crafting Tables are Glamour?

[Capattac]

So far it seems more people are for having benches extend to level 50 crafters then oppose it. Nice to see I'm not alone in my hope. As to the comments of benches providing an unfair advantage if they removed the level cap, well I respectfully disagree. I see that as the same discussion regarding Ventures bringing back 2 and 3 star items and how that will greatly effect the crafting community. Well it hasn't... Nor would this. It would however increase FC participation which I feel is something needed by all.

Great response so far! Keep'em coming

I was just taking a developer point of view. As a player, I would love a useful crafting table/bench

Crafting Tables reduce the crafts level, meaning it makes it easier, even 3 star crafts.

Just like the "Ingenuity" craft skill.

I can craft 3 star recipes way easier with the buff than without.

I just thing that the tooltip is either wrong or only the bonus CP are for the lower lvls.
I'll have to check it again later at home.

The item description says it increases CP (Eng/Ger).

But it would be nice if it would reduce the level of the synth for lvl50 crafters.
Or it could provide a fixed buff like +5 Control +5 Craftsmanship.

I also like the idea that, to get any bonus, you actually have to use the stove/workbench/...

The thing you need to keep in mind about this game is that the hardcore elements are all vanity. Raiding, story, dungeons, pve content that's full access to anyone at anytime.

Glamour and vanity though, that's where the hardcore come in.

In french the Tooltip says that the Buff reduces the Recipes level.
In english it only says it adds CP to the lvl 40 or below crafters.

That's... a big difference! D:
So which is it? Or is it both?

Just decided to use one of these tables to level my Culinarian. Turns out the bonus isn't even to XP. It's to CP. So... that's supposed to help me how? I'm using a rotation that maximizes the use of Hasty Touch. I have no more need for CP than the CP I already have.

And then you failed hasty touch 5 times in a row and you wish you had just a couple more CP for that Aetheric/WasteNot/Reclaim skill...

When I fail Hasty Touch five times in a row, I am having a really bad day. Especially considering I rarely ever use Hasty Touch unless Steady Hand is up, boosting it from 50% to 70%.

Right now, my rotation (at Lv30-ish) is thus: Inner Quiet, Steady Hand, Waste Not, then alternate between Hasty Touch and Standard Touch (depending on Condition), then once both buffs run out, reapply Steady Hand and Waste Not, continue with Hasty/Standard Touch, and then Careful Synthesis to hammer it home as needed. If I get "Good" Condition before all of my buffs are up, I use Tricks of the Trade to restore CP.

On most of the stuff I make, if I fail to get HQ more than 80% of the time, it's usually by a wide enough margin that I'd need to level into the next set of gear to improve that.
