Please do this instead of saying F all the crafters. This change has 0 logic since people are blind sided by it. We need confirmation this is not going into the game people are quitting as we speak…. Like HOW can they do such unpopular things over and over
But you are screwing crafting and the legendary weapon quests. When are you going to comment on this?

So those of us who grinded 600wm already, would be just equalized with newborn lvl 60 players , negating all the effort, gold,keys, TONS OF TIME we put into grinding it ? You can’t be serious LOL. Biggest bs I’ve seen so far. Let’s just give a legendary weapon to everyone who reaches lvl60, even better lets just wipe hundreds of hours of progress, so that Timmy with 5 hours of playtime can match those with 3-400. Huge no to this suggestion lmao. Why would you even forward @Luxendra idk.
I’m confused as to how this would screw over crafting. I’m not a crafter generally, so forgive my ignorance, but didn’t they put in another system for crafters or something?
MMO’s constantly increase the power level so shh you are coming off a bit stupid.
You spend ungodly amounts of money and/or gathering time to craft high level gear. Idiotic new system completely nerfs said gear.
Nvm, youre talking about pvp scaling
No, you would still have better gear than likely 90% of players if you are still at 600 GS watermark, making you equally capable of walking into new content and achieving higher GS items, whereas most won’t be there or capable easily.
There is a valid concern here for crafters, I would suggest going with what makes sense for everyone. Radical changes require radical solutions. Isolating folks won’t help.

You still craft items at the same GS from what I read? Whoever wears it however will only receive benefits relevant to their expertise. If you make a 600gs item with bis perks then whoever buys it doesn’t need to upgrade their gear again, it’ll scale as they get their expertise up. It just adds extra steps. It should have been in the game from the the beginning, but better late than never.
Now you can’t just buy voidbent and be done with the game.
You can’t just join a company and they give you a full set of 600gs gear and be done with the game.

I don’t think it outright nerfs it. It puts a dampener on it until your expertise matches that of a specific item, at which point it starts working as advertised. Again, I’m not sure about this, I’m just guessing.
Ah, and when they increase cap, power level, they equalize new accounts to match those who grinded already, i see. What kind of mmos you played so far, Fortnite ?
bump. @Luxendra All people who farmed their hard watermark will get into end game faster as their grind to get max expertise is already done. Us crafters who spent hours grinding mats and spending over around 10k-20k gold leveling each profession. are now being subjected to run the hard watermark system to catch up and have our gear be on the same level. Why Does every player that crafted have to go participate in a part of the game that literally isn’t fun what so ever, elite chest runs and left click spamming elite mobs, just to be on the same playing field as the people who say in zergs of 50 people spamming elite mobs for 2 months? i need clarification on how this is fair to any of us crafters.

Fair? Have you played this game bro? This game rewards exploits and abuse, while punishing honesty. I welcome flagging my comment as inappropriate.

Congratulations 
Congratulations indeed, you have successfully enraged over half of your player base just cause you are forcing us to watermark instead of crafting from the get go

they actually just forcing us to partake in the rushed PVE content, 5 ways to raise GS through killing pve mobs after update, and then 1 way to do it through crafting and 1 way to do it through pvp. Id be happy if there were more ways to raise it through pvp and not a daily cd chance on crafting. as well as as way to increase gs through gathering.
Since they wanted to make sure “players were engaging in all aspets of the game” instead of grinding 1 thing for hours. they sure did make sure we all have to engage in the bad pve content if we want to be strong in the game. They just said screw gatherers and crafters because people totally gather and craft in order to run the pve content. (i used crafting to avoid the mindnumbing elite runs and now im going to pay for it)

Agreed.
Another suggestion regarding this new system: make gypsum independent of what activity you got ir from, that means, make it only one type of gypsum. This way, we are not forced to do a bunch of different stuff every possible day we can; we would still be able to pick what we want to do. I’m not a fan of this daily progress limit, but if AGS don’t want to change that, they should at least let us decide how we want to play the game.

Still have no clue where these “HWM reset” nonsense threads came from, really hurts the credibility of this community. Constantly freaking out about things that are literally just not happening.
That’s not how it works, you’re not forced to do a bunch of acyivities, you can only gather ONE ORB a day regardless of the type of gypsium. The different types are only there to make sure no option is too quick/efficient compared to the others.
