Thoughts On Live Letter Crafting Changes

[Sollux]

I dislike the idea of trading airship mats for red scrip mats. FCs with a single crafter is going to be blessed by the airship mats while FCs with 4+ crafters are gonna do what? Share them? Or should the head crafter just empowering herself/himself? So, should crafters all leave their FCs and start their own in order to take advantage of the airship?

There might be some confusion here, and I may have used the wrong phrase when I said Exploratory Missions. These are the missions that you can embark upon as 8-man groups to explore islands, kill monsters, and find loot from, not the time-based airship missions bringing back a limited number of mats. The gear dropped from the kills can then be traded in for points that can be spent on Red Scrip mats.

The only way a Crafter could monopolize this is if their entire FC was willing to spend any points they get from gear on Red Scrip materials for that Crafter. Even then, I feel a number of FCs wouldn't have a problem doing this as everyone could help their Crafters and be helped in turn.

Ah, I see. Thanks for the explanations!
