Condar Tarsonia , i see your logic and your words are wise.
I just wish that something could be done so some classes don't have to flood the broker with items no one need, just to level up. I wish that every crafted item has value and purpose and be wanted by others. Otherwise - what are we crafting for, besides personal enjoyment?
In regards to my Sage and Armorer - Honestly - I don't want more recepies - I want my products to be desireable - then i won't have a problem making more of the same thing. My sage is not any happier than my armorer - all the Apr4 I am making most of them time go to the vendor - so LOTS of recepies not realy a solution to anything. Desireability is.
Speaking of armor and weapon cretaion - I offered this long ago. Let crafter create a BASIC item, and then using additional recepies to "augment" it with specific stats.
For example I will craft a Fayiron Bresplate (no stats). Then I can use some combination of gems/metals/whatever to add SPECIFIC stats to it. I don't want predesigned +4 str +4 wis armor, want +8 sta one. Same can be done with weapons
