Of all the patch notes that upset me, it was the news CP gear will be increased to 180. The day
before this news came out, I spent over 56 Dreugh Wax (of 59) upgrading my CP160 gear. This after days of grinding for Ancestor Silk. Now, in less than two months, my gear will be, well, let's just say I can't even give it away.
Despite being upset, I'm willing to adapt, but I ask developers throw us a bone.
I propose "Crafter's Day" for a week(end) event which includes:
- All research is dropped to 5 hours. Crafting passives apply.
- 100% tannin/temper/resin return x1 on deconstruction. Bonus to drop an additional return: 40% - green, 30% - blue, 20% - purple, and 10% - gold.
- 1% chance to return *all* tannin/temper/resin on deconstruction.
- 100% mat return on *all* deconstructed gear at item level cost.
- 100% motif element return.
- 100% trait stone return.
- Double node drops.
- 100% exp gain on deconstruction (a booster for those under level 50).
- 50% cost reduction when applying tannin/resin/temper.
- Turning in daily crafting writs rewards players with x20
raw mats.
At least this gives us a chance to get something back, rather than nothing.
Doesn't hurt to ask.
Thanks for reading and have a great day!
