1) Alts are largely superfluous in the game and might even slow your crafting progress. You do not have to make the same compromises for crafting in this game as in other MMOs.A simple question that should clearly have many answers. I myself am not much of a crafter and would certainly like to build my game more in that direction, even create a toon simply for crafting. I would love to hear some of the pros and cons to each crafting, and all the personal opinions that come with crafting.
