Mistake in Craftsmanship Requirements?

[Ragz]

Considering it's pointless to make the gear that requires that much CMS/C and just get Darklight, I think it's high enough .

Consider HQ crafted i70 blows DL out of water... I'd say it's still very important

Well we're running in circles here. What does it matter if the gear blows DL out of the water if it's not feasible to make it efficiently? The time spent to get crafters leveled (as well as properly geared to HQ those recipes), aquire enough gil/tombstones for the items, get the right materia, get the melds done and so on is just wasted. It's easier to just farm DL (by the time you have crafted some i70 gear you probably will have equipped all your characters with a complete DL setup). And then you can go straight for AF+1/other things. That's a lot less hassle, less time wasted on leveling crafts/gatherers, less time spent on learning how to craft and probably less money spent.
