Thanks for all of the responses.

To those saying to ignore crafting until I get one combat class to level 50, how can I get upgrades otherwise? I got some tanking gear from level 15 quests, but I haven't seen any since (which is why I started leveling armorer). My weapon is from my level 15 class quest still. Maybe I just hit an odd patch of quests, but it felt like I wasn't getting the right gear from them.
