Dear Square Enix - I want to Craft

[Vicktem]

Like I've been telling other people on my server. I will wait on this crafting nonsense until they A) Fix the glaring issues or B) In 6 months when new craft gear is introduced and the current craft gear everyone wasted 6 months getting is nerfed to the floor so that is all obtainable in 1-2 weeks tops (SE's MO). Until then I'll cap my weekly, but I wont do anything other than buy tokens and do other activities.

P.S. I haven't seen a crafting decision this bad since the 1.0 launch craft system.

Then your memory is pretty bad. There is only one crafting change that was worse then the 3.05 one, and that was the one where they changed the 1.0 system.
The crafting at 1.0 launch was the one of the most interesting crafting systems I've ever seen.

This times a million.

Recipes were gated behind leves where you had to actually learn them. So crafters had to work hard to figure out how to make the recipe through rng or research. I remember my links hell bringing me back tons of different wings to make wing glue, and it was glorious and required a ton of cooperation.
