Majorly peeved at how stressful it is to craft endgame gear

Helps to go slow and double check everything for each piece you craft. Rushing leads to costly errors.

That's the thing, I DID go slow and double check everything, and I messed up anyway!

Sash is made now with the correct trait, so everything's fine now.

Worse yet you craft a regular piece of armor instead of the set piece.

Oh man I have done that. GEEEEZ! And it's usually after I have obtained exactly the right amount of mats. No wiggle room.

I've done all the following despite always double-checking:

1. Created a v16 instead of a v15 item (just after Orsinium was released and materials were rare).
2. Created a not-set item instead of a set item.
3. Golded the wrong item.
4. Created a Nirnhoned not-set weapon instead of a set item (got the Potent back on deconstruct).
5. Created a v15 Nirnhoned weapon instead of a v16 (also got the Potent back on deconstruct).

I think I triple/quadruple check everything I make now. This also omits all the mistaken deconstructs I've done over the years. I accidentally deconstructed a monster mask a few weeks ago but got it back with a petition (thanks!).

Hard to make correctly, easy to accidentally deconstruct. So glad they are putting in the setting to lock it from decon.

As I got a master crafter, I have many peeps asking for gear.

I was asked to craft 5 heavy pieces, 2 medium, including 4 tava's favor for armor and 1 for sword, 3 pieces death wind on armor, both shields and the remaining sword must be death's wind, Infused on larger pieces, impen on smaller ones, also make sure to craft the right level (often happens when you craft lowbie gear, you craft a chest level 10, switch to gloves and it crafts level 14 by default, since it uses the same amount of mats), weapons both Defending.

You bet I triple check every single time...

Final setup in the spoiler below (did you have everything right?):

Chest - Tava's Favor - Infused - heavy
Legs - Tava's Favor - Infused - heavy
Shoulders - Tava's Favor - Impenetrable - heavy
Helm - Tava's Favor - Infused - heavy
Boots - Death's Wind - Impenetrable - heavy
Gloves - Death's Wind - Impenetrable - medium
Sash - Death's Wind - Impenetrable - medium
Sword 1 - Tava's Favor - Defending
Sword 2 - Death's Wind - Defending
Shield 1 - Death's Wind - Infused
Shield 2 - Death's Wind - Infused

I feel you dude. I crafted 2 vet 16 pieces of gear and golded them only to realize I had not selected the trait i.e. Seducer. I had made gold no bonus gear. I stared at the screen for minutes! I was in shock. A benevolent guildie gave me some ore gold tempers - Bless you kind sir.

Be careful out there crafting is tricky business. I love the old change of level on your gear too.

When i crafted my first v16 armor I managed to craft a full set... without the 5-piece bonus. I simply choose the wrong button in the right upper corner crafting "rubedite" armor only, despite beeing in the right location.

so, yeah i feel your pain!

I made my Legendary mistake using a game controller. It is much easier to tell you are in the right option on KB/M.

I was an absolute fool last night. Got my first char to v16, and went to craft my armour set (julianos/torug)
All went fine until my last piece, during upgrading from purple > gold, I miscalculated and was one single temper short. I only had 7/8 left after upgrading all other 6 pieces. Instead of running to a city to check guild vendors (or even just ask my guild to COD me one.. which would've taken seconds) I stupidly decided to 'risk' it on an 87.5% chance.. yep, 150 or so silks gone, tempers from white > purple all gone, I think I already even had it enchanted.
What a waste.. all my fault I know, but still. There shouldn't even be an option to upgrade below 100% lol.. may as well be 1% chance to upgrade

Oh god. Where's the "this really upsets me" button? x_x
