With Publish 23 changes, will a 14 point Artisan matter anymore? If not that will suck, saving up millions to get to 14 point and then get nerfed.

Beeing a 12/14 point crafter will matter more than ever.

What use is a 10% better resource if you arent able to use it fully?

How does this affect great resources? If you have a resource with 1000 CD, will you be able to craft a 110% crafting tool? Or will medeocre resources count as 1000 CD, rendering any tool that's not a 100% tool a piece of junk?

LOL There is no 110 or even 100% crafting tools. I make them and the perfect ones are +15.00 or 99%. I have a few points left over after making them.

Right - my understanding is that in order to make a +15.00 crafting tool, you need 1000 CD metal. With the new system, will 1000 CD metal look like 1100 CD metal, yielding a tool that's higher than +15.00, or will 1000 CD metal look exactly the same as 910 CD metal? If the second case is true, then pretty much all tools crafted will be +15.00. The best resources will no longer be valuable if you can go harvest whatever metal has 910 CD or better and end up with a perfect tool...

+15 tools were considered perfect and the max obtainabled. we'll have to see what that inspiration does then with ressources that already have 1000 stats.

wont be less valuable just anything over 900 will be good to sell and also who is to say the Devs wont play a dirty trick later after realizing their mistake or whatever they may lower the chances of ALL resources to spawn lower than 900 on purpose?


thats what i want to see (what will the resources actually be like?)


we have been shafted like that before whos to say they wont do that?


no one here can say for sure only guess whats in store next? I would like to see a dev answer that at a Q&A chat session

QFE,

when i use to make powerups with good resources i had room for 8 more points of exp.
10% better resources means you have 10% more room for exparmtaion, 14point artisan is now better than ever.

14 pt artisans are 14pters for crafting artisan foods and powerups where you need as many experiment points as possible (because you never run out of them). On anything else you'll do just fine with even just 10pts really.


No... this will mean better foods and pups which I'm all for (also artisan level weapons, but who actually does that for money anymore?)


Honestly I don't see any downside to the bonus. Even more so since in the latest TC they've lowered the bonus amount:


Profession: Dancers, Entertainers, Musicians

  • The crafting Inspiration Bonuses for Artisans will be +1% to resource quality, +5% for Assembly and +5% for Experimentation.

  • The crafting Inspiration Bonus for Elite Crafting professions will be +2% to resource quality, +10% for Assembly and +10% for Experimentation.

Make sure to read the stickies at the top of the artisan forum. You'll find this thread which answers that. Short answer: skill tapes with artisan experimentation get you more experimentation points. Master artisan = 10 points. Master artisan with maximum skill tapes = 12 points. Human master artisan with maximum skill tapes = 14 points.

just a thought, but if the entertainer is the one that pickes what type of buff is given, then GL finding one that will do it.....they are all afk'ers and will leave it on for combat professions to keep people coming in...... this in my opinion is yet another nerf the devs have thought of.....





just my 2 cents
