Wow what the hell were the devs smoking? All your great resources are soon to be rendered completely worthless. Its like the devs werent satisfied with one "Crafting Day". Now we have em forever unless this manure is put back where it belongs.

I urge you all to go into this thread and express your consern. Perhaps if we are lucky a dev will see this.

Would be cool if Mor-dan could take it up on the corro board, though I dont know if he is even still around

tis a sad day for crafting if they go through with this

What does that have to do with resources?

I'm also not clear about what you guys mean by all being the same. If that does happen I dunno, I may as well quit WS as the only thing that sets me aside from some noob that ground out WS and bought a 12pt suit is my resources.

Basically any copper with 900 or 910 con and 900 or 910 OQ is now the same as idokiam. And it will allow for 100% experimented weapons with those resources.

Ya saw that in another thread..

I'll have to find my rand from one of my old posts, but what will come of this is as follows...

Everyone will have weapon A that does X dmg, there will be no variety. This alread was gunna happen with these new uber loots, this will just make it so much faster. Takes ALL the fun out of WS all of it. I don't know what I'm gunna do if this goes through. I swore I'd be WS until I quit and that might be true, just my quitting might come earlier than expected.

If there was ever a sign that crafting is now regarded as generic this is it.

Yeah let's all get lobotomies. I mean god forbid that we have an intelligent aspect to the game. And that is what crafting is to me. A high learning curve to make the best stuff.

At least BH boss marks will only be for MBH now. Yay!

i dont see that in the notes so can someone explain to me what this means?? i am bidding 1.1m on a stack of awesome duroally (sp?) steel and dont wanna if it wont matter.

well I'm sure good resouces will still matter to a certain extent. Will it devalue some resources? Sure.

partially I think this may have come about for the same reason they totally killed the difference between 12pt and 10pt AS.

The new crafters dont have the resoruces the older crafters have etc. And so their trying to 'level' the playingfield. And maybe since they made AS such a statcloning bore. They figgured they'd best make WS the same too.

Someone should probably test this before everyone panics.
