Crafting EXP nerf - terrible idea for new MMO

Sorry, it was a joke.

There’s a reason why people are saying “level up now before the NERF - not wait until the buff”

Drop down at the top lets you flick between live and PTR. You can search for crafting items as well for the exp they now need to craft them.

That’s not true. And if this is the result of your ‘testing’ you need to go back and test it again. Levelling trades will be much more of a grind than it was before this change - especially jewelry.

they are beeing unfair. so if you already leveled your skills to 200 you can save your T4/T5 materials but if you are pushing leveling your skills till now you will lose a lot.

It’s just stupid and unfair.

Wish they would have added where salvaging crafted items you make returned coin equal to what you get for salvaging world drops of equal level.

bloody hell. it’s insaine now.

They should just leave it as it was, fix this mess and all the dupings, increase levels to 250 and make it possible to level only by crafting level 200+ stuff.
No one will whine about it.

yeah, I was slowly rising crafting with what I found. Now I lost all interest in crafting skills.

Right.
First of all, in that video only shows something datamined from the game. Second, it only shows about weaponsmithing. He talks abaout Jewelcrafting and stuff, but he doesn’t show anything about it, so I’m a bit reluctant to belive it.

Anyway, I still see it as a good thing. I don’ t know in your server, but on mine, Orichalcum costs 0,02. Iron costs 0.30. So it’ll be cheaper to buy orichalcum and craft high tier stuff than iron stuff. Same with the other high tier materials. And they are supposed to give more experience when you craft them.

So I’m clearly missing something. Because I find it a good change and you think it’ll be awfull. What am I missing?

If this is about new players, I wouldn’t mind to do it this way. I had to farm tons of fiber to craft crap useless gloves (and wasting fiber that could be used for leveling up refining) that I had to salvage afterwards. Click, Enter, Click, Enter, Click, Enter…x200

Pd: My armorcraft it’s at lvl 165, not 200.

same here. I just can say congrats for players who already leveled to 200

Also, the main thing is that hey will increase the amount of exp that your crafts will give you.

If the exp would remain the same, OBVIOUSLY I’ll agree with you. But if they increase the experience from +4000 for a lvl 60 item to +40000 I would be fine. This numbers are completely random btw xD

It would 100% be a good change if they did the maths better for balancing experience needed. As I said they have made you now need to craft MORE T5 items than you did before the patch. This means you not only now have to use T5 (because of the bonus exp) but now you have to also use more T5 to level.

Yep just like the new Void Weapon… in a couple of weeks they’ll nerf that into the ground, by which time everyone will have ground it to 20 for it to be made completely useless… like all the other weapons… Just hope noone is looking for a healer…

As for the crafting… I think it’s obvious what will happen in a few hours… when you work out the time needed to gain an extra 4 million points… to max a skill out…

they make now difference between leveling up pre and post update.
they have problem that T4 and T5 prices are cheaper than T1 and T2 because these materials used in leveling up crafting skils so to fix it they created disaster.

are you trying to craft more than one item?

The Rich get richer the poor stays poor just like IRL.

They have increased xp from tier V by 3x but at the same time incrased xp to level by x3.5. I just can’t understand how you dont understand this simple logic.

You now need around 20% more T5 gloves to level and if you run out of T5 mats you would need to craft triple amount of T4 gloves.

Agree with you.
you have those now who ownes 600 gear, gs watermark 600 and crafting skills 200.
these people can just sit on trading post and sell everything with crazy prices. and others has to farm as animals or buy.
if it was like that from the begging it’s fine. but update like that after 48 days release is just stupid.

new world isn’t pay to win. new world is take 3 weeks vacation on release and win.

The xp changes to crafting skills is good and it is something that should have been there from the start. It makes much more sense than the way it works before these changes. Hopefully this will make tier 5 resources not completely worthless anymore.

Just because the game has been released does not mean they should not make any changes for the better. The game is still young and they should continue improving it with time.
