Agree too.
I really disagree with remove all crafted armor and weapon parts (I don't know hows implemented recipes for cooking) I think that crafting items stage-by-stage much more interesting, logical and realistic. I also appreciate that system of crafting for otherness with other MMO. Please listen us.
P.S. as an exception I'll admit possibility simplistic craft for simplistic items.
p.p.s. sorry for I knows English not a good.
