Crafting is dead

[Alexiell]

Someone mentioned that a change is coming... Where did you get that information please?

Many hardcore crafters i know gave up on this system. I think i only know one person that is really working on the weekly scrip cap :/

Greetings,

Thank you all for the feedback regarding the acquisition rate of red scrips. Among the various feedback we've been collecting regarding red scrips, we're also aware that players feel that the amount of red gatherers' and crafters' scrips earned is too low which leads to the amount of work to obtain them higher than it should be.

We're planning to make adjustments in next week's hotfix, so please hang in there a bit longer.

I really hope they change favors too, i dont wanna have to farm those for 11hrs or even more if they increase the cap. If they only increase the amount of red scrips we get from turn ins then its not gonna help much imo.

Exactly, my problem with the current system was only partially the time and money needed to cap weekly scrip (especially those sucky gathering ones, crafting scrip with CUL is easy), but the 11 1/2 hours i would need to do per week of pure, stupid, idiotic, blindfolded and brainless grind of running/flying in circles to make a node appear so i can get enough items to be able to craft anything.

Im working 50 hours a week (with commute time) and have a life, i have time to cap my eso and crafting scrip but will cut it close on the gathering. There is no room left if i do not want to completely stop my leveling progression on classes i'd like to play.

So we will have to see what 3.06 brings - hope they dont make it worse :/

But then, they really couldnt dig the hole they threw DoH/DoL in any deeper
