I wish SE will be more communicative about the crafting and gathering aspect of the game in 3.1. So far all the 3.1 info is about Void Ark and some relic stuff - nothing about DoH/DoL.

Come 3.1, whatever fix they make will just hit the market like a giant bomb. If they:
- Implement specialist only recipes
then those who picked the "wrong spec" will be screwed (or at least will need new stones - are you SURE you want to specialize in alch and cul where you cook food that no one will buy?), as well as 2* omnicrafters whom have invested in multiple 170 MH and OH tools.
- Make favor mats more accessible
then the market for those will just crash hard. Screwing over everyone who have already gotten anything 2*.
- Introduce attractive 2*/3* battle gear
given the price/cost of the current 170 battlegears, those will probably become even more prohibitively expensive... no wait... if Void Ark is to drop ilvl 200 gear, will people still buy crafted gear?
