Cratfing is obsulete

edited September 2009 in Items and Crafting
Crafting with the recent changes became - unfortunatly - totally obsulete at level 40.

Just look at the items you can craft and the items you loot. It's not worth it.

    I have to agree. I bought a couple of recipes - cost me 3 great profundities and I really only wanted the costume unlocks but 78 rare components to craft it? That has to be some kind of joke right? In a few weeks time I'll have a full set of nemesis purples and I still wont have enough blood of the dragon to craft 1 item. And the customisable stuff is really meh - I took mysticism and most of the stuff is +str and/or dex now - how does that even remotely make sense for a mystical character?

    And I'm sure that those items will be marked as obsolote. Meaning that you won't be able to wear those anymore.

    Regretfully, I seriously doubt this.

    Also, it's obsolete people.

    For a non native talker i am not that bad at it, i think. Mock away, if you need to.

    The problem still is, that crafting means nothing anymore in this game. And that is real bad.

    Don't worry about him. He himself misspelled "mispellings".


    I am at level 20 and i enjoy crafting. As you say, i also get most of the items that i need from drops. However, crafting is still useful, i especially enjoy the healing consumables.

    If it isn't worth it, then don't do it. I personally level it just for fun, it gives me something new to do.

    Yeah, but what is usefull now after the changes, except the healing and force field consumables? And to limit crafting only to those two items...? Kinda lame.

    I agree with OP. Hit 40 yesterday and noticed that most of the mutation improvements I had spent lots of resources on on the way up HAD DISAPPEARED from the crafting options. NONE of the crafted gear I could make was in any way better than the quest rewards and gear I already had, and cost expensive pulson particles to make to boot, so why not vendor everything and just buy gear from the AH?

    Currently a few consumables are the only reason to craft.

    With every patch its the same, first they nerf xp so your forced to do every ounce of content and grind, no longer can you have the fun alternative of focusing on Canada on one avatar and the desert on another, they they nerf half the powers in the game further giving the impression its needing to be renamed "Gimps Online" and now more recently they broke crafting, end of story, most of the stuff you can make is pretty worthless and to cap it of its now absurdly grindy to skill up in the 200+ range.

    At stores now, Gimps Online: The Monotonous Years.

    Yes I'm bitter I wont deny it, during open beta the game was a great deal of "fun" and quite different from other titles on the market, this in a very large part to what made it fun, fun enough to take the switch and bait limited lifetime offer, its more of an utterly horrendous error with every single, what we laughable call "patch".

    Well, "obsolete" roots in Latin, so no one on this planet is a Native Speaker. Yet most of us spell it correctly. And didn't you study a couple of years in New York?!? I thought that might be as good as being a Native Speaker... ;)

    This is what annoys me the most. Not a single profession supports End/Rec, a popular casting spec yet we get Str and Dex thrown around in Mysticism...?
