Max crafted Arcana weapons are capped at 585 - all other weapons can be crafted at 600. There are 600 gs arcana drops, so BiS is not from crafting despite very clearly being an advertised feature of the game.
If this were a physical product, this likely would have resulted in a class action lawsuit (false advertising). I think most of us would be fine if this had been clearly stated as a known issue at launch, but so far AGS hasn’t even acknowledged it is a problem yet.
This needs to be corrected immediately and ideally reperations paid (cosmetic arcanist profession clothing maybe?) to all the crafters who spent time getting to 200 arcana skill believing the company’s statements regarding crafting prior to the release of the game.
Fair enough. I have brought up many many issues without them ever showing up in the known issues list. Sometimes they get resolved, most of the time they do not.
I do not know how the list gets generated nor maintained, but I am pretty sure it has never been a comprehensive list of known bugs / issues.
