Alc needing help.

You used the 20 points from a Soul of the Crafter to get there. Try getting there without those 20 points. You'll "need" to when they remove the Specialist-Only lock from those recipes, and anyone can do them. Unless, of course, you want to be stuck only doing the ones you are Specialist for, like we all are now.

My only lament is that I had to use the crafted Main-hand + Off-hand instead of using the Augmented versions. Another possibility is to use the FC actions for +10 Craftsmanship/Control for slightly cheaper melds, but I didn't use that for this to ensure that you always have the chance to craft 4-star items without relying on a FC.
