OK. CLOSE TO BIS.
Raider’s Hat, Laz Bow, Smooth Bone Ring, Dooms Chance, Will of the Ancients, Sagacious, Wizened Boots… do I really need to continue? Many of these items are infinitely easier to get then trying to craft something of equivalent value or better. Sure not every weapon slot and everyone armor slot has BiS dungeon drops, but enough of them do that you can’t with a straight face say crafting is easier than getting drops from dungeons. With the Raider’s Hat for example, I’ll never have a need to get another bruisers hat which completely invalidates any strength medium armor piece a crafter can make. The only reason I agree with you about adding items to the PvP track is because they already messed up the game by giving OP dungeon drops and they have to make it fair. Everyone’s bank is full with decent two perk gear that we constantly complain about having storage management solutions because it’s become a problem.
My point was that the game would have been better if they didn’t have all of these drops, but it’s too late now until they increase level/gear score cap.
if you are such a good pvp player then you shouldnt need bis gear for me as casual

That just tells me they need to make it easier to roll gear.
In a game where 500k is gold cap, they should be balancing all their rates/drops around that price point
I seriously don’t care for the crafting system. I’ve spent lots on crafting myself and think the system needs improvement. Needing to spend triple the gold cap and months crafting one bis piece is so stupid
I really don’t think it needs to be all that hard or gated. I’m a PVP/PVE/crafter
I do dungeons, mutations, wars, opr, duels, farming, market flipping, invasions, and crafting
Acting like crafters are a unique or special role in the game is silly. Most players craft. And most players can agree it’s a stupid system
Only ‘crafters’ who think otherwise are people who choose to sit there and craft all the time because they KNOW they can quadruple their value with how high items sell
Toning it down would be healthy for the game and make it easier for new players to be on an even playing field

I’m not going to farm gold for hours on my days off just to buy someone’s overpriced bis ring on my dead server.

quite frankly non of these items are bis in their own rights.
they could be consider near bisses or back fill bis at best.
not every build needs every weapon perks. having these lets you get some relevent passive perks while having to roll less true bisses.
its better this way.
no one is going into anything without key weapon perks. they are too important.
So here I am, a pvp player who doesnt have piles of gold for craft or the time to grind dungeons. Then AT LAST Amazon added some decent rewards for pvpers in this somewhat dying game and some goofballs still have the audacity to call it a bad idea xD hilarious

AGS is getting rid of crafting. Look at the dungeon drops and the soon to come PvP drops.
Crafting does not fit into this game any more. Everyone just wants free shit from dungeons and the arena and AGS is listening.
This game went from “BIS comes from crafting” to our current state of only 2-3 items are worth crafting because BIS now comes from everywhere else for free.
Crafting is just not a good system. The reason we’re in the mess we’re in now is because of all the people complaining not to make crafting “useless”.
I remember pre-launch there were numerous threads saying crafting was going to be worthless because items were repairable, what a joke that ended up being. Imagine if AGS listened to these players and let the gear actually decay fully rather than being repairable, and we were left with this current system?

Sorry but i don’t like crafting too much.
whats coming out that is true bis?
a few filler legos,
a decent enough str ami il be farming (fort recovery is not really all that good so its more of a 2.5/3 bis
Anything, literally anything, to shorten this insane grind. These rewards are the only reason I haven’t uninstalled. If it is as hard to get these as it is to get other items then I will be done.
Bis only from Crafting? you are the one who have milions of golds with big guild behind, ez peacy lemon squizy.
Keep the PVP rewards. Fix crafting so it isnt RNG bullshit beast ward logging luck. That stuff all needs to go. Gives us control of stat and two perks. 3rd perk random but not luck or bullshit. Problem solved.

No.
The current system is way too ass to not be able to get 3-4 BIS out of 10 items from non-crafting routes. I’ve done/seen/crafted for way too many people who blow 100-200k+ on mats in a matter of minutes to end up with nothing equipable and very little sellable.

Thing is you can easily spend $1M on mats and still not get 1 person actually BISed out on 5 gear/3 jewelry/2 weaps, especially if they don’t have a drop for that item.
Never mind if they want to switch builds, if their current setup gets nerfed, or if new perks get introduced to make older ones obsolete.
OP is actually delusional with that suggestion

Bad Idea
It's clear you are a person who has invested a large amount of time leveling your crafts. I think you should still be profitable, if not then that's a problem.
Most people don't have the time to invest in this game as you did. They need a way to acquire competitive gear.
This seems like a good solution to me, great work Devs, keep it up.
Op, terrible idea, rethink what you are saying and check your bias.

No, as a pvp player maiinly, I’m glad we can have nice dedicated pvp items
Lol all over the place in expeditions and mutations.
Rather not grind out PvE dungeons with this RNG.
Gambling is boring, give me a target.
I suspect AGS are trying to speak to the gamblers to cover for a lack of content.
What rewards? I completed 19 tracks, which is A LOT of playtime in OPR and arena.
All I got is a ring, which is marginally better than featherweight ring. Some armor pieces which are useless to me and 3 weapons which are worse than dungeon drops.
So what are you talking about?
There are, as usual, no rewards to speak of.
