KenjiWB Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I heard that endgame dailies/tokens yield better upgrades than max level crafts, is that true? Did I just waste countless credits first grinding Artifice Archeology and Treasure Hunting to 400 as I level, and then wasting countless more mats on random chances to make better versions of these crafts, only to see them be worthless before I can even use them? I was excited to see the "...have learned to make Advanced Guardian Hilt 22" but then I hear that vendors sell Guardian Hilt 23...*** is this true?

techjedi Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Devs have said that new crafting recipes will drop from new tiers of content and new patches so that crafting always stays up to date. It may not always provide the minmax perfect item, but "obselete" is a stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WookieBob Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 will other rewards have an "augment" slot that is supposed to be a crit result of crafting?it's the only real reason I'm looking at crafting myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hajizan Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 From what I understand all crafting except for slicing is a waste of time. Slicing has a monopoly on augments, so it is still very profitable and useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kainsec Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Biochem is still ridiculously useful. Plus we don't have all the rare schematic drops found yet so saying obsolete is a stretch. A better idea would be to have a few guildmates max out the crafting skills then have everyone else take biochem since biochem produces the best stuff and the purp level items on medkits, adrenals, and stims require you have biochem skill to use them.

KenjiWB Posted December 31, 2011 Author Share Posted December 31, 2011 I say obsolete because BETTER items are available to everyone that require far less work/effort/money/time overall, its a strong word but I still feel its accurate if my original example is true...

This, with more emphasis on the money. There are too many money sinks current in the game to make crafting worthwhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
