Thanks for linking to this thread. It's funny, I quit the game because of this change back when they were going to do it the first time. I came back for the free re-trial and said, "Hey, it's not that bad." Little did I know they didn't actually change it.


The logic just doesn't make sense. They say it will allow new crafters into the field. I'm a 4/1/3/4 armorsmith and can't fill up one bar as it is, though I come close a lot. Now my stuff will be worse, using the same high quality resources. The only difference is, now there are TONS of pre-nerf stuff out there for sale that I will have to compete with once I hit master (next week, just after the patch)


Thanks, SOE!

Elood, I posted a more detailed response in Shadowfire's forums, under Arsenal's thread.


The kist of it is that that explanation does absolutely nothing but prove that the devs don't play crafters, and don't have the slightest idea how to control the economy.

Every spare moment of mine this weekend will be spent going over my stock and making schematics for layers, segments, armor, components and weapons. I'll offer the best I can from these schematics for as long as possible.

Yeah both my accounts will be cancelled because of this, and I'm even a +12 AS.

The problems that they listed:

Everyone uses the same 'uber' stuff.

Monopolies are hurting the business



1. Then give people some different items taht offer similar benefits. Composite is all people use, cause it is SO MUCH BETTER than anything else out there for PvP and some PvE situations it isn't even funny. It should have a vunerability to something other than stun, or lots more creatures should attack with stun. Tantel should be a full suit, wearable by all races, with advanced panels, and no shifts. PSG's should work, and not die in 1 fight. Padded should have much lower HAM costs. Ubese is a great example of an armor that 'works as intended' in myopinion. It has some vunerabilities, a huge difference between it's special and base resists, and average HAM costs (but still wearable unbuffed)Change these things, and you would see alot more variety in terms of Armor than they will see with this change.


2. THis change will increase this, not decrease it. It is obvious to everyone here. Get aclue DEVS.
