Where are the craft weapons?

BSM got really shafted this patch.

All the specialist can craft is the replicas, which they don't even have total monopoly (GSM and ALC share some). No furniture, no anything worthwhile for BSM. Even the crystal bell is a low 1-star no-specialist recipe.

Why they keep sticking on the "crafters crafting finished gear" stuff?
They can easily fix it with adding bonus effects to existing weapons when crafting, enchanting the weapon!

I'm not quite sure what the role of BSM is right now. ARM can make many of the same materials as BSM, while also having a wider range of products to put on the MB and/or use.

Kind of unsure of the reasons some have given for not allowing higher level craftable weapons. I would think that if there is ilvl 200 armor that is craftable there should also be ilvl 200 weapons that are craftable, and so on. The weapons and armor that can be crafted should march forwards together.

I think this kind of comes down to the question. Why are there no 1, 2 or 3 star craftable weapons of ilvl comparable to the 1, 2 and 3 star craftable armors?

Sephirot should have been 225, or even 230. Crafted weapons should be 220.

Even if Sephirot is 230, people would still need to get the tome weapon once the 240 upgrade item becomes available to them.
