The problem with crafting is that progression is effectively dead until changes are made to this new system, but beyond that there's the fact that we have nothing to craft anyway. 3.05 gave us 2 new housing items and various gear sets, including outdated i180 gear which uses the exact same model as the i160 version.

Indeed, the problem with crafting is that you grind more the any raider but get absolutely nothing in return since everything is effectively useless.
