Artisan Archive

From the beginning I have been doing Ranged Weapon Power Ups for Gen Crafting XP because it gave you at 4:1 ratio on xp. Basically I got 40 xp for each combine and maybe a point bonus with successful experimentation. Last night I was doing the last 3200 xp to obtain Eng IV. Doing power ups this should have been 80 combines. However, last night for the first time I was only receiving 20 xp per. Has anybody else come across this issue?

Yep. Powerups got reduced to 20 XP each a day or two ago.

with the power up xp reduced, wat is now the best way to grind up in level

If there's one thing worse than a grinder, it's a grinder who's too lazy to experiment to figure out what is the best item to grind!

Guys, don't grind. Find what will sell, craft the best quality you can and sell it. Destroy the crud that you didn't get great results or better on both initial and experientaion. You guys may have more patients then me, but griding all the way to Armorsmith would have driven me crazy. And yes there are items you can sell as low level artisans.

The problem is, as an artisan, what sells the best is: Experimented Weapons Powerups.

Jeesh, this is just stupid.

This wasn't a nerf, it was a bug fix. Basic level crafted items are supposed to give 2xp per resource used. The powerups were giving twice the XP they should have been. It's fixed now.
