Thanks for removing all fun in crafting.

35 successfully desynthed Artisan glasses is what you call "can't be bothered"?
That's
pretty insulting, actually.

I'm not gonna say it means you can't be bothered, but 35 is a pretty low number. Anyone that has supplied all their own mastercraft has probably done hundreds. I know i've personally done about 300ish give or take.

If you're telling me I've gotta do hundreds of them just to get one Mastercraft Demimateria, because so far I've gotten none and that's what I was trying to get across in that post, then, yeah, I think I should probably just give up now because that's not in any way worth it.

If that's how you feel, then yeah. I know I certainly don't like to do things that I don't feel are worth it.

Honestly
The entire desynthesis system suffers from the same problems that the Atma drops had.
Granted, pre i70 it's not so bad.
It's easy enough to get tons of grade I and II demimateria because you can mass-craft and desynth that stuff.
But when it comes to getting these mastercraft demimateria, you get alot of people who have absolutely unrelenting bad luck with these drops. Then it turns into a giant and discouraging wall, and, frankly, if a game feels like it's going out of its way to make you feel like you've been walled off from content and actively discourages you, then that's just bad game design. On top of that, they keep adding more and more walls you have to scale to keep going on, so by the time you've got your Supras, now all of a sudden you have to get your Chanticlo Nexus to make any of the newer stuff. There could've been so many better ways to go about putting this stuff in, but they're so incredibly insistent on RNG that it's frankly ridiculous. If they're so adamant in keeping it like that, the very least they could do is make it easier to get this stuff as content goes on and on and on. You know, like they do with literally everything else in the game. But we've had these for like, what? Four months now? Probably soon to be five? And yet we have no indication of any plans to make it easier or reasonable, just that they're going to make a little less high-end recipes in the future.

They have already made it easier to obtain Supra's (FCIII's) and they have made past tiers of crafting far more accessable (1*/2*/3*).

High-end crafting is still a grind, but it should be, for now atleast.

Making it easier to get fieldcraft IIIs while not making it any more reasonable to get Mastercraft Demimateria (And then making it so you need even more of them thanks to all the new gear) is a pretty shoddy way to nerf something.
