I reached 60 on my crafters around Jan 1. In the two months sense I've been able to push to just about all OH & MH crafted, 4/8 bodies, 3/8 heads, all accessories. Enough to be two-star in all classes, and 3-star in my specialists. I still have a ways to go to future proof myself for the next patch. But while its taken a while it does feel like I'm catching up faster than new stuff comes out. Took ~1 week to go from 2-star to 3-star.

But the i180 red scrip gear is a trap, IMO.
