Oh, I agree wholeheartedly. In fact, I made a thread about this very topic.
I still think the new version is extremely convoluted. Anytime you need four different types of materials with three different crafting qualities spread over three different profession trees in a talent tree each having five different options and now asking for one profession tool and two add-ons just to maximize your efforts is ridiculous. I miss standing still in the city and just crafting. They didn’t have to redo the entire system they could have just made game crafting more usable, sellable, and worth the effort. Peoples biggest complaint was that after crafting everything it was either BOP or just not worth it. So instead of making it BOE and absolutely worth it They changed the entire system into this big Frankenstein convolution they have right now.
