The new patch has been so exciting and fun. Thank you all on the dev team for the reworks on perk buckets, this has been something so many of us have been wanting to happen, and we’re seeing people want to do chest runs again, want to run regular level PVE again, just for more chances to get gear.
One major issue plaguing us on live right now is the DEMAND on craft mods exceeds the supply IMMENSELY, Squirming vines on Ygg on US west were 10k-13k before the patch, now they are over 20k-30k, while this wouldn’t be that big an issue if I could slot a craft mod in for every single perk on my items, having to roll multiple times on gear to get a chance of a 3 perk combination that is at least viable, is a very expensive endeavour.
Can we please get an increase of 2x, maybe even 3x of all craftmods across the board in terms of drop rates, or can we make luck effect their drop rates aggressively so there is more reasons to run luck gear? Thank you.
Totally agree! The changes for crafting perk buckets and rearranging the changes were huge for the player base. Overall the game feels more alive already with people doing every bit of content especially in OPRs. With this positive change comes a HUGE increase in crafting demand since people think it’s worth it to do so as an option more than before.
Adding the extra craft mod chance via various options would be huge for supply. Would make crafting gear a little less expensive for the average player (for example sliver of crystallized azoth is going roughly 4K a pop in ygg) and allow for the hardcore crafters to create a few more BiS items to hopefully bring them down from trading for gold cap. One BiS life staff is about to go for 1 million gold which is crazy!
Without a more easier way to supply the crafting market the demand will stay way to high and thus the crafting market will be seen as a luxury price and people not willing to craft gear or if they do the overall price will be a major gateway for players
AGREEE WHOLEHEARTEDLY WITH THIS!!! Especially when it comes to attribute mods, which are currently rare at endgame locations yet common in lower level areas. Which is backwards IMO because I never used them once till I hit endgame
its only ass backwards because ags expected a constant inflow of new players and hyper success.
the entire intention is to feed the economy with new fresh faced players while high levels that needs it takes advantage.
kinda like a ponzie scheme since once you the low level player gets to high enough to need them you will find that the availability wont be there and prices are up because less and less people are joining or running low level zones opening 25 chests per quest constantly.
this was litterally seen when potions started getting exceptionally expensive as even high lv 60s with low expertise all eventually stopped running world tours as they maxed out expertise.
