    Crafting discussion

    I noticed its relatively easy to gather material in this game.

    I started down the Armor > Butcher/Miner path and noticed that its a bitch and a half to craft shit 30+

    Discuss what you're doing and any spots people should know about at certain level ranges

    Apothecary 150+ sucks if you aren't in Scarwood Reach or higher. So hard to find the necessary materials and people charge 1-2P for a few pieces of plants. 130-150 was the toughest. Before 130 though it was smooth sailing. Also, the Expert daily quest is ridiculous. I'm only 28 and I think they want me to deliver to the Droughtlands or Moonshade.

    I'm crafting leather hoods from the recipes you get from the daily. Nobody posts any helms in the level ranges that are under 1.5p - 2p. Nice little nook.

    Betas I was much farther along. Dragging my feet quite a bit more this time. 190 Butchering and 170 Outfitting. Really need to move onto Moonshade already.

    My weaponsmithing's been stuck around 110. Iron's just a pain to get in solid quantities and the "cheapest" synth I have requires 2 ingots per. Whenever I can jump to chromite will be nice, as nodes seem more readily available, but in general I think gathering needs a bit more work to either compensate for rush/congestion or to just not be such a pain. Seems like a lot of the good recipes are cockblocked by notoriety requirements, anyway.

    I've been doing outfitting and runecrafting at the same time, they've been easy so far but I'm only at like 115-125 on each. I would be higher if it weren't for runebreaking being broken. >.< Will be crafting more when I'm home tonight!

    Runebreaking being broken is a colossal pain in the ass. I'm running out of space over here.

    It should be fixed in the patch that just came out!
