Thread: Specialist System in 3.0

Seems plausible.

I do small scale team crafting. The efficiency added allows gil to be made.

If you don't have an FC with a house, you will be locked out of team crafting for an airship. I expect the airship to be a gill synch, team crafting to be fun & worth the gil.

I spend time checking people's gear as they walk about. Who signed their crafted gear? I love to see friendly crafter's names. There have been hints that you'll be able to do more than sign items in 3.0. People will be see an item and know it's a Nyalia! That's a big bonus, too me.

Your scenario? A small price to pay for the other added improvements, imo. But I also don't think your scenario has been foreshadowed as such.

That's not how I translate the quote.

After saying, "It will also be possible to choose multiple specializations." (Seems clear.) He gets asked if one could switch specializations? You use the word delay. But he says it will take time.

I'll wait and see how it pans out. It seems like he says over and over, there is plenty to do for hardcore omini crafters who are willing to blow gil on melds and a way for the casual players to remain relevant. As long as there is plenty for me to craft, and a bunch of cool new game mechanics I want to be a part of, I'll be happy.

Like many here, I want to remain an omni crafter! I think that's for the best. I think we've been given indication that we will be able to do that without alts.

But if that doesn't happen, I'll keep the team crafting airships and the cool gathering system despite the bathwater.
