My only question is why?

What is it about being part of the crafting community which makes usa second rate players. I realize that my response to this keen idea is my own baggage but I assure you that there are other players out there that have invested the time and resources to serve the community but feel the same as I do. Why do we have to haver loot dropped on our heads.?

If you want to drop loot on use then you need to make it able to be reverse engineered. All players regardless of profession deserve the right to get something out a new feature. While it may be wonderful for my crafter to have these items there is going to be little opportunity for me to use them as I spend very little time fighting. Even if you did some kind of skill enhancement temp buff for crafting the majority of the reward would go to the players that took the risk to get the item. Not neccessarily unfair but you would be throwing into the game another advantage for the wealthy crafter who could afford such items.

I'll admit that I think your heading in the right direction but my problem with loot is that i don't think it's been all that well thought out. You have to weigh thebenefits of instant rewards against the consequences of impact on crafter.

New artwork would have been nice instead of painted stimpacks. but eh i guess they are ok. I would have just liked skill attachment rate increased instead of these I think.

My bad. I read "new artwork" as meaning paintings and the like. Thats what I get for reading to fast and not "listening" to the context of the sentance..

TH, a maskscent buff makes no sense. With 3 pieces of modded clothing someone without master scout can get well into the safe range. Doesnt maskscent cap at 125 anyway? I find that it usually breaks more often on me when I am at 133 than at 119 maskscent mods. Will these be useable by anyone without the /maskscent command? These will frankly be as useless as medical foraging seas.

Change them into poison/disease resists. Makes way more sense... Well, it would make more sense for the wilderness profession(Scout/Ranger) to have natural resists to diseases and poisons but hey... thats just my crazy thinking... lol

Look at it like this... Anyone can kill a spider or bol. Loots disease or poison gland. Give loot to rangers or scouts and he then can use it in a new schematic to make the loot. Perhaps make them experimental with Master Ranger being able to get the most out it in regards to duration and resits level. Make them use Advanced Dispersal mechanism so docs and artisans get their piece of the pie. Cant make them in a factory since each loot item has a serial on it. That way you dont get guys running around with crates of them all the time instead of getting the coveted doc resist buffs.

Lets face it.. if I can make a high tech field base out of metal bone and hides I should be able to make a antidote/resist item out of a poison gland. Place these schematics in the empty as hell trapping line of Ranger. After all, the traps made there are the envy of modern armies... lol.
