Dunno where you get the idea that DoM/DoW is considerably faster to rank. oO
Also what bloat, im doing all crafts apart from cooking(done that in other games), and alchemy (which i have on hold).
That kind of makes me a dedicated crafter so its natural my inventory is full, are you one too?
Sooooo any chance you (as well as others) could stop all the casual nonesense?
So its great that you dont have much time to play, but guess what theres plenty of ''casuals'' who did enjoy the complexity of the crafting system (such as myself).
But hey, to use your own arguments against you:
As a casual and a main, dedicated crafter i consider the changes dumbing down rather then a removing of bloating of my inventory space.
Given that most of my inventory space is filled up with items such as nuggets (will be replaced by ingots after patch), cloth and leather i dont see it noticably increasing my available space.
I also dont forsee crafting being made easier. Easier to understand for anyone who cannot be bothered to enjoy the classes called crafters, certainly.
Now i do forsee it being made more expensive, while still requiring materials from other classes as was required before.
So, you plan on ranking up crafts after the patch?
Me, ill be sure to use the old recipes to save myself a fortune, and make raw materials into high selling 1st tier refined materials to make a fortune.
tl;dr :
No crafting isnt more enjoyable and/or easier after the patch.
Atleast not for the current none dedicated crafters.
But i'll be sure to enjoy selling ingots made out of nuggets made out of ore, instead of your more expensive ingots made out of ore.
