    (2) Increase the amount of red scrips earned from submitting collectables, so there is less repetition and less time required to meet the double weekly caps.
    (3) Introduce alternative ways to acquire some items, in particular crafting materials, such as new Gnath/Vanu tribe quests or tomestones of law purchase.
    Points 1 and 2 would only make this system a little less worse. You're still being limited to only a few crafts a week, just an extra few. I want to be able to craft as many 2 stars as I damn well please. Point 3 would work if EVERY favor mat and EVERY red scrip mat was sold. But that won't happen because favor nodes would be useless.

    Over complicated crafting with high gear & melding requirements didn't go over well.

    So they added more requirements and grinding.

    Which didn't go over well.

    So they added more requirements and grinding and gated it.




    Good job~

    Edit: I'd like to add; I tried crafting - I really did. ALC 50 CUL 50 FSH 50 MIN 50 and it was boring all the way through for me - then finding out I had to buy/make/beg for HQ gear and then meld & over-meld it turned me off. Then they added books and specialty nodes to grind out to make the new stuff they added later. Right now I don't see myself ever catching up or even bothering with it just due to the sheer complexity and time required by all the systems.

    Just over 2 years. Roughly time for the next expansion and level cap raise.

    I'm cool with that.

    The new gating on crafting and gathering gear is just ridiculous. Thinking that it'll take 2 years to gear up those classes just made me lose all motivation to keep playing this game.

    the trouble is to force the specialization, because a few did complain about omnicrafting.
    even if you do omnicrafting do all alone will take far longer than work with other. but there even while working with other it take age....
