I have the blue gear. But I’m not sure what shatter buff is or the resourful ring you’re talking about. I’ll have to check later
Check your recipe list for elemental shatter buff.
Resource ring is next to inspiration ring you said you filled already.
And I forgot to mention whole Insight of the blue tree needs to be filled, there are few skill nodes giving more than 20 skill.
If you’re buying crafted gear off the AH then you’re totally right: that’s useless gear. But if you use the actual crafting system, then yes, it’s highly relevant.
Rank 5 gear is completely relevant at this point. The crafted gear that is/was sold on the AH was almost always irrelevant.
Only reason why I played this expansion. I generally do just world content and professions and without professions adding so much content I would have nothing to do but old content and I don’t need to buy a new expansion for that.
FFXIV knows what’s better for crafting. Everyone who has played it knows what’s better for crafting. It’s not hard, just steal it. All of it.
1 spark you have to choose between pvp or pve. Next xpac theyre fixing it. why not fix it this patch
The people who ACTUALLY want to be competitive , pretty much do whatever they can do be there and are there. It’s almost always, apart from the beginning of WoW that you had to do some stuff to get to a better spot in the content you do.
Gearing solely from crafting is a horrible idea.
Perhaps try using the crafting order system to get some gear you need etc… just be aware th at quality won’t always be as desired.
Crafting currently for me is not in a good spot but for different reasons. I agree the whole spark thing is one issue.
Embellishments barely matter in PVE. Just craft full PVP gear.
i think wow’s crafting has been bad since forever.
When you look at how many things you must craft to level up that are a complete waste of time and resources.
each thing you make should be potentially useful to someone other than for disenchanting.
I think DF is a general improvement with two glaring exceptions for me:
-recrafting not as a public order.
-artisan mettle soulbound
why not add pvp ilvl to the pve choice? its not the BiS option but its an option that can be used to maintain some level of competitive advantage over those who don’t use it at all.
Crafting isn’t so much bad, as it is needlessly complicated, and insanely wasteful.
I want it all (give it all I want it all)
I want it all (yeah)
I want it all and I want it now!!!
I prefer WoW crafting. I don’t want to sit around playing mini games all day.
I’m a leatherworker. It’s one of the more challenging production professions to get to max. But I did. And I didn’t make one drop of sweat from doing it. What I do make many of is golds I make many golds because I put in effort. Those toxic recipes make bank and I have them all. Yes I bought a few recipes for a hefty amount of gold too but I couldn’t tive am exact number if you put a gun to my head because I’ve made it all back and then some and then some and then more
u dont need be forced be pvp and pve,
it your character mess up the stats
