    As for Velo's crafting armor... good luck. I had the same difficulty with crafting for my level Gld. In order to make gear for a lower level gld or other class, you actually have to be crafting at a much higher level. I think it's silly to do that but I guess SE has a reason. Granted I haven't figure out why yet. /sigh
    I'd also love to hear SE's reasons for this obstacle. Maybe they wanted to encourage players to help out lower levels or sell gear at an affordable price to lower players? Anyway, I guess I'll have to give the market wards a chance. It might help if players were blocked from buying gear cheaply at the market wards and then re-selling at a high price, by making it un-tradable on purchase.

    I bet lots of players sell gear affordably to help out other players, but it's whipped up and put back on for a big profit . Though, of course this happens in all MMO's and stops people selling too cheap (which makes it hard for standard players to make profit), which is why instead it's important to give players the opportunity to make gear for themselves or get it from quests.

    In fact, it probably comes down to lack of content, as you probably need three or more sets of gear for each 5 or 10 levels. Bog standard from quests, better crafted with same rank recipies, and best crafted with higher rank recipies (these would sell in market wards). Perhaps a compromised solution would be to have the standard, better and best gear of a particular type all being graphically identical, or just very slightly reworked.

    Anyway, am I going round in circles, lol. I've definatley strayed from the topic oops, sorry.

    Velo I'm not sure. I have thought about why would a game want you to craft and maybe for once enjoy it and not allow you to craft your own gear?! I mean you can do some things but if you reach in R the BSM and GLD and ARM you will notice, you can create axe heads for weaps and such for R20+ but you can't craft a damn pair of R5 SHOES FFS!!! /endrant Sorry but when it happened to me ....my head exploded. lol
