Possible to incorporate world sets as craftable?

@ZOS_JessicaFolsom would there ever be a benefit to allowing us crafters to research an item I found, say... Briar heart chest in divines, and be able to craft it later on? Even if it's just the chest, in divines. This would open up a whole section of crafting for those of us that would like to craft sets that are exceptionally useful, and not be limited to sets from the world crafting locations? At least this would still have us searching for all nine traits on all the sets and in all three weight classes. And maybe make it a static research time, like the mount training, instead of a month per trait. Though understandable for he first nine traits, it would be more like researching the set bonus, and not so much the trait it has. I hope this could be considered, because there is a lot of sets I would love to do this for.

I don't think so based on the Tamriel One update.

They will be assigning 3 sets to every region. Since the regions will be scaleable, players will be able to go back to farm higher level gear.

But with it being open to all, wouldn't it be a bit pointless to keep three locations for the same crafted set gear? I don't really see a point to having three locations to make ashen grip gear.

There needs to be a gear-leveling mechanism.

I'd prefer crafting over grinding... Ex.: It would be great if at the highest crafting levels you could at least destroy a piece of set gear, and then use it to create a new piece of choice from the same set (customized). Maybe even offer to keep the appearance or re-forge with a different motif.

Make crafting worth the point sink it is.

Agreed. Similarly, I would be happy to just change the motif style. For example: the Briarheart gear comes in primal style. Not my favorite. I would love to keep running my set, but perhaps in Xivkin, or Glass.

Maybe even a five day research time, and you can make any style it that set for that piece. Say, I find the Briarheart chest in divines, I do a set bonus research, and in five days, I can make the Briarheart chest in any of my already researched traits, but in any style, such as deadric, or pact. @ZOS_GinaBruno thoughts?

I hate to say this... but maybe if ZOS sold crown store resources to ease the burden it would take to make these kinds of changes, this might actually happen.

@ZOS_GinaBruno there's money in this for you...
