I have been mining a bit since the expansion came out, and I've found that the few rares that I've managed to get my hands on, the price disparity is huge. When looking for a silicate loam on the broker, they run about 7 plat on my server. However the rare ore only runs about 1 plat. This is largely based on the aspect that the loams are used for both fighter & scout skills, and the ore is used to mainly make OK armor & weapons. Would it be possible to change the recipes up for skills (adept III), so that one archetype uses one type of rare. Similar to the way that Priests use the gems, while Mages use the soft metal. For example, have Thieves use the rare ore, since their skills come from a carved rune, and fighters use the loams since theirs is a liquid (or looks like one). This would bring balance to the price of these rares, and have more desirability of finding a rare ore.I realize that this topic has been discussed before, but I though I would bring it up again since we are dealing with a whole new expansion, and a whole new tier of crafting materials.
