Whereas crafting one of everything is a lot of time material gathering but it feels much more rewarding for me since I'm actively working the entire time, rather than just getting lucky with RNGesus.
    I think the biggest issue for me with Experts is they turn it into such a long grind. With the Pteranodon mount, ranked seasons and the last step of the Relic, some of us have been spamming Experts non-stop and now we've got another set of tools which demands we spam quite a few hundreds of Experts yet again. I like Experts and they're a good challenge starting out, but once you crack the priority system and get a few hundred made, the challenge is diminished and it's just a really long tedious grind where rng becomes more noticable.

    The new tools look nice, but I'm wondering why I even bothered with the relic.

    I looked at the requirements and decided this is going to be something I come back to when I'm 90 and can one button craft them for glamour.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]
