Feedback on Expert Recipes:

[Nandrolone]

I was messing with them a little, and I have to admit, they are definitely a lot harder than regular crafting! That is awesome, and makes a lot of vet crafters happy! I know it makes me happy, lol.

My only issue with all of this, is that Expert Recipes are basically a useless Gil sink. You spend your gil on the items, (because it’s more convenient for hardcore players to sit there and camp near the marketboard and just buy the mats) and then, you get your points. You wait until the 10 days are over....

And then you get....a title? Not even some expert recipes exclusive glamour you can sell? Not just that, but the leaderboards are set up so when you get top 100, it removes you so you can’t win ever again.

In conclusion: The difficulty is great, this is a good direction they chose to go in, and should be incorporated in future recipes that can be sellable through marketboard. There is really no benefit for vet crafters to do this however, other than a title anyone can get if they learn how to craft efficiently. I mean Jesus...we cant even get a CUL pan mount that flies? You are basically just wasting your gil for something you get no substantial reward from. I personally will not be doing them if there is no substantial reward, as I feel my time as a crafter is just being wasted.
