What bothers you most about the current synthesis system?

[TheVedis]

It takes WAAAAAY too long to level a craft. Given the fact that you really don't need to buy weapons and armor until level 40ish or later, crafting gear is only worthwhile after that level as well. This in turn makes craft bots and turbo button crafting a must, lest the crafter go insane. No, I don't want to run from camp to camp to complete 2 to 4 leves until my eyes bleed to level a craft. Just make every synth within optimal range give like 2K xp minimum, and only then will I attempt to level any craft to 50. Either that, or completely recreate the crafting system from the ground up.

you havent crafted since the patch have you

Nope. Why? can you get 2k minimum per synth? (without any additional skills/scroll/etc boosting xp)

2K+ easy with scrolls
1k+ easy without

close enough, they sped it up a ton

50% isn't good enough for me. Sorry.

This is also from the prespective of a level 50 crafter though. also is that Leve-crafting or free-crafting.

Kool I'm just gathering Info. I'm trying to like crafting and this is a big improvment over XI's system.
My big thing is the time sink. I spent way too much time on XI and it put a strain on my marriage before.
even though my wife played XI it still was a problem I spent the kind of time I spent on that game.
so far this game has been very good with the time sink except for crafting and it does look like it's
getting better.

time sinks, yeah, thats unfortunately what all these games equate to, and what will seperate them from single player console games

it takes effort, but youll find a nice balance, dont feel rushed to do things and youll usualy find it more enjoyable and youll have more time for real life stuff without making that end suffer

and then you got those women who just dont want you to play at all and ther is no compromise, cant win there unfortunately


i have been 50 in everything for a while, but i do hear alot from those leveling, especialy in my shell since its rather large, so usualy its not my opinion i give but that of which i hear when it comes to leveling things since everything i did was under the old system

I get 1600xp/synth with little effort No Manual, No Rested XP, just Qual.

[Haibel]

I know that wasn't directed at me. But I have crafted in levequest since patch and
with manual + rested exp I was getting over 1k a synth. no clue if they even stack
however I'm going to test that tonight with just rested EXP. Really hard to guage
though with the change in how quality effects exp now.
