From what it sounds like, and I could be wrong, crafters who use crappy resources and try to make up for it with good rolls on experimentation
Thats the problem. Good crafters should be able to make better weapons with bad materials then bad crafters do with good materials.
I used to make some of the best weapons on my server and all because I threw away every schematic where I didnt get all good sucesses. I didnt always have the best materials but I worked hard to get what I could. Now it's all about who has the best materials.
Doesnt matter how good you are anymore. Thank god I quit crafting.

The changes to weapon strength are good. Everyone on this game currently is to "uber" for their own good. When weapons are normalized and the classes fixed a bit more we won't have people soloing Krayt's, Kimo's, or anything else by themselves. People shouldn't have been able to do that in the first place.
These changes won't affect anything since all the weaponsmiths that have the storage capacity are makeing thousands of weapons before the patch. The "pre-nerf" weapons will be in the system probably the entire life of this game.

HEH, you don't give the length of the game very long do you ^ ^ The good weaponsmiths on my server will sell out that saved up stock within a month at the most if they actually do sell them.

As you may or may not know, publish 7 is slated to include a huge crafting change. From what I have read, this will severly impact all the combat professions; after all, the majority of us get our weapons and armor from crafters and not loot drops. The crafting change will basically make it impossible to achieve the weapons we have now, much less before they nerfed the FWG5 and other weapons.
Head on over to the weaponsmith forum and read up on it. I can't believe that some one actually thinks this is a positive for the game.
Question: How does this break the Pistoleer profession further?
Answer: It doesn't. It breaks (more likejust heavilybruises since it's not the armegeddon causing change people are claiming it is) the crafting professions, not the combat professions.
Question: It sounds, from the oringinal post in this thread, as if Pistoleers are the only combat profession who will have to deal with this change. Is this true?
Answer: No, it's not. Every single weapon in the game will be effected equally by this change.
I'm lazy and don't care to make up more questions: I don't particularly like the change, but everybody is getting overly upset about it. It's not the end of the world, and it is always subject to change (just like every single thing in this game since that's the nature of MMORPGs).

Hence the weapons will still be in the system the entire lif of the game. Just because they change hands doesn't mean that the weapons are gone.
