I neglected HWM because I didn’t find it to be fun content, so I am sitting at around 510-535 depending on the slot. I am thrilled about this reversal because even though it will take awhile to get ALL of them up, I can focus on the weapons I use the most then take it from there.
I agree, it wont be 100% faster but I feel better about being able to target it to a large degree.
They made Armor crafting more difficult, and more rewarding. This is good. They made the expertise grind cheaper, but not to easy. This is good. They are making good moves.
For me it shows they are willing to listen. It might have taken the threat of a massive drop in people but it showed they are willing to listen and change.
Now maybe we can focus on how good this patch actually is. I mean just the crafting additions alone (forcing a stat) is a very good and actually creative way to help engage people in dungeons (their goal) and a huge QOL for crafters.
i can live with that and friends dont say sorry they extend their hand or a hug and thats settled.
They extended by listening, good enough for me to shake it
