Crafting Writ Improvement

PS4_ZeColmeia · March 2016

I would like to propose a few updates, doing the same boring crap is killing me.

Add an option in the quest line to turn in at craglorn, wrothgar, or hew's bane. Turning in at the location gives you possible writs for that zone. this will remove the "I have to 1 level lower crafting to get the trait fragment I want for Craglorn"
As a result, find a mid level change for Craglorn or DLC zone drop rate to be the same
Add additional, "customization requests" which can be motif, trait, crafted armor set. These give higher chances of writs. Chance for a double writ if all 3 are done.
Option to improve equipment and get either the same quantity of the last temper/pitch/hem it takes to get 100% improvement chance, 2/3 the amount of the 100% improvement value of the next highest improvement material, or 100% of the 100% improvement value of the next highest improvement material.

If this is implemented, please do a diminishing turn RNG, as it's going to be bad if they keep asking for Kajhiit armor 5 days in a row and you don't know that. I do not advocate that the options should be specific to you as that doesn't favor heavily invested crafters or non heavily worked on crafting alts.

Getting this every day 100% should be something hard and something that only those who really invest the time to craft get to do.

Please do not implement this idea. Writs should not become complicated. I know you said "optional" but that basically means required in this case.

Only change I want is getting rid of training or emerald traits as rewards in the containers and get rid of the Deconstruct for 280.

I have to agree with your first point. It's always bugged me that I must have an alt that's one crafting level lower if I want to do writs in Craglorn for the chance of surveys for Void stuff/Nightwood/Nirncrux. A top level crafter should have more choices, not fewer.

As far as the "customization requests" go, I'm OK with that as long as the motif/trait requests are not gated behind certain content. For example, requiring a Xvikyn piece where you can only get the motif from the Crown store or IC. So the motif or trait needs to be available to everyone who plays the game, PVP or PVE.

As to your last point, I guess I either need more coffee or wake up a bit more as I'm not understanding your "Improvement" idea

Personally, I'd most like to have the possibility to get the crafting writ and then deliver crafted stuff in every zone (including those from other alliances) provided that it has crafting writ boards and delivery crates. It's really annoying (and time consuming) when I'm forced to finish quests in several different zones (if my crafting abilities vary). I also see no reason to exclude silver/gold zones from taking and completing the crafting writs. It could increase the player population in those zones a bit too.
