Well thanks to @Zin_Ramu ‘s new Dev update clarification it is somewhat more clear now and even worse than I originally thought. 
wasn’t this already part of the initial blog?
yeah this is one of the more interesting changes with the patterns.
rolling perfect is still going to be oppressive but at least its 2 variables removed instead of just 1.
And your players are leaving in droves.
That should tell you all you need to know about the teams decisions.
They are not best.
The team works for us, the customers.
They should remember this. Because we will.

yes, good change. 1.19% chance is doable.
A fucking grind, probably unneccesary for a sub-par item. But doable. 0.000476% is not.
oppressive
Impossible. The material requirement to craft that many items eclipses the total number of material gathered across all players and all servers since launch.
We’re talking hundreds of millions.
it also cost 100 to craft the first part and 475 to craft the cast.
so it will cost 575 gold per upgrade.
and people are reporting +1 upgrades and +3 upgrades, soo it will be extremely expensive to upgrade via gypsum casts

Amazon is only allow for 1 type of game progression in a way that they deem fit… Did they forget this is a RPG??? What part of RPG means you can’t innovate your own way to achieve high gear score items… now you are MANDATORY to farm watermark in order to get high gear score… they say you “gotta put in the time to earn a high gear score” but what about “time spent farming gold for days on end, stimulating the economy for crafters?” does that time spent not count?

frick.
You can’t 7 cast the same type it’s not that great. All they are doing is trying to cram stuff down your throat you might not enjoy hence the reason some people don’t part take in certain things. Eat all your veggies even if you don’t like them. We got a buffet and if you eat from every type of food you get a bigger discount. Hi shoppers we require you to buy one of each item to continue shopping.
the 7 cast thing was from that dev bog update.
if its wrong then there is more to be mad about.
So dec patch starts the expersties grind and sometime in 2022 the reduction will hit - sounds like people are just worried that they can’t PTW - Yes crafters who buy all your mats on TP you are a PTW as well…
I myself may be affected if I don’t use the new system before the SECOND phase of this change which happens sometime (TBA) in 2022. Hell most of you can grind out 600 in under 45 days so imo yeah it sucks but not enough to uninstall.
Sorry to the Fortnite players MMO’s require time and long hours to get great stuff
At least there are not 40 man Elitist Raids gate in this game like other MMO’s

So nothing in terms of PvE is getting better or more fun. The devs are just FORCING us to engage in their boring end game product in order to advance.
But they are not removing the keys required to access this content.
New World has lost 800,000 of 900,000 players. 100% of those departures are because of decisions and unforced errors made at AGS.

Thats a good point, high tier raid content in other games can be so toxic its such a chore to get what you want and are way to dependent on too many people to do it. At least with this system you can do some of this solo or with small groups
Yet
So basically the new system limits your progress based on daily activities. up to 7 types, Costs 575gold each and chest/expedition farms.
all other activities only serve a purpose if you engage in the devs prefered activities, when they say so.
Why do you think players would want to do this? All you have done is make the bad HWM system mandatory, with a daily gold sync grind to alleviate it slightly.?
why mention doing these other activities, when realistically they only give one upgrade per day? for 1-? expertise per day
This change will cause many to quit, and the new system won’t cause people to return. System is trash, big mistake.

Still not glad to see that i need to lvl my watermark for my ring/necklace and earring in order to efficient use my current gear.
I farm for that gold that i bough my items and i want to use them as they are and not a downgraded version scaled with my 510 ring watermark.
