Given the turnaround that this game has made, I know that the devs know what they are doing. Which is why it is so weird that they have killed crafting the way they have in 2.0.

We already know there will be new PvP skills, and new PvP gear in 2.1. Is there any information out there that would lead us to believe that this new gear will be craftable only and not questable?

If so, this could potentially be the catalyst the markets need to make crafting and gathering viable again. And, since PvP is optional it would make a lot of sense. Spoonfeed the "required" gear to DOW/DOM for the main story line quests but for "optional" PvP content, make the gear strictly craftable.

Thoughts?
