12pt suits can be bought on Infinity for less than 7.5mil now, that's with Assembly too. Proof enough of the sorry state crafting is now in.
Man i could have died for that on Bria, I think even now a 12 point suit without assembly is still 20mil but our economy is so screwed anyways. I probably paid around 10 mil for my CAs with some Assembly and +8 in donations.
I probably spent 8 to 10 mil on my suite. Points for crafting in tapes got for 500k per point now.
A LOT of older crafters who want to try a new crafting proffesion might sell their old suites, i know we had that happening, then wanted to buy new ones. Also after 2 years there are a LOT of tapes floating around so t he price goes down of course...
Maybe some of the richer folks that respec'd into the prof (I've hada couplecustomers tell me they did so) and had the money to quickly 12-point upsaw that it wasn't all blasters and roses, started to get some of the 'Questions you Never Ask A Weaponsmith', made their UBER weapons, and have had enough of it.
I thought I had my retirement invested in my suit, guess I'll still be makin'wepsfor a while, at least AFTER they fix current issues.

A +2 set was just sold on my server for 5 mill, its crazy.
But I guess a lot of the respecers (in dissapointment over this not being an easy moneymaker proff)and a lot of fed up veteransmith are leaving theprofession.
On the other hand, there seems to be a whole lot of newer smith starting out, will be interesting to see if they are jedi alt who just wants to make easy money to support their main or if they are real smith in it for the profession ![]()
I hope the last as the more people in the profession, the heavier our word weigh when the devs need to decide who to give attention (or who not to screw when pushing out new publishes to early)![]()
