Thread: Suggestion: Crafting/resource quality bar

As much as I love having my trusty TI-92 out to calculate if one resource is better than another it is getting slightly annoying.

Off the top of your head, in a 66/33 slot is resource A (800/325) or resource B (675/566) better? Ahh.. the joys of being a crafter.

Anyway, its annoying the heck out of me. How about a little bar beside the resource slot that shows how good a particular resource will be in the slot? Its not like this information is secret to more experienced crafters or anything...

This seems to be a point of confusion to new crafters. How much time is lost explaining to them this system? The system is wonderful in how it requires certain stats for better quality items. But it fails completely in telling you how your resource will fair. You can figure it out with a calculator, but in my opinion this is something the game should do for me.

Anyone else think so?

very useful if it gave you a rating (0.0 - 100.0) and a graphical display for each attribute

But seriously, this is a great suggestion, and I am fully behind it.


Why? Because my P4-3ghzrulesmy TI-93, and it should be doing the math, not me.


C'mon Sony, this is an easy one, throw us a bone.
