    Then get in a land owning fac or use it purely for attack/defense charms? It's not like this annoyance hasn't been brought up before.

    Indeed. It's not like there's any reason to level up apothecary that high other than the attack/defense charms anyway.

    And it's not even that expensive, just getting those chi stones before level 7 is a bit tough. At level 7 and 8, you get to make stuff with Perfect Stones, which are common as damn.

    As for the level 6 apos: They're damn powerful so having them be part of the TW system makes sense. Not only does it mean that there are lands that have special value due to the apothecaries, but it also makes people want to join the factions owning the lands.

    It only really gets bothersome if a single faction happens to own all the lands with special apos, as they can then stop them from being in circulation, which would give that faction a rather notable advantage in TW.

    I believe that used to be the case on Sanctuary at a point. Not anymore, though.

    And at least from what I've seen, it's not like the prices are ridiculously high.

    If you see b:cute be sure to take a second, calm look at anything I said.

    I think on HL one faction does own them all, and like all faction at their level, they prolly recruit 100+ only - but apart from that, why should a player have to change factions anyway, just to craft stuff?

    My beef is that, I LIKE to much around with remedies and crafting, but I cant get access to a crafting part of the game for no reason that I can do anything about.

    Still sucks

    Well, as was pointed out, the apothecaries are a pretty good incentive for TW. Because really, the apos are a much more valuable asset than the 10M coins you could get from owning a single land. And that gives non-land owning factions incentive to attack.

    And it also makes the whole TW scene itself more complex.

    And really, you can do something about it: Level up and join one of those factions.

    You can decompose 1* grade 11 gear (I think) and get some stones that can be used to craft attack charms. This will level you in apothecary 6.

    You can get the gear from 1* drops in BH100 runs.

    It's how I did it.

    Indeed, FB99 bosses drop gear that decomposes into Chiukungs. Personally, I also decomposed any 8x and 9x gear I got from grinding, getting Chiukungs or Pakuas, and then turning the Pakuas to Chiukungs. Then I ran into a catshop selling massive amounts of Chiukungs and voila, I had upgraded my apothecary.

    After that, you'll need Perfect Stones, which are easy as damn to get. At worst, a month's worth of OHT daily will get you all of the Perfect Stones required to get to level 8.
