Suggestion: Universal Grand Master Crafting Stations

The suggestion is as follows:
Having ONE Grand Master Crafting Station placed in a house, anywhere, causes ALL crafting stations of that type to behave like Grand Master stations, with access to all the "known" attuned sets that you've unlocked so far. "Attuning" your crafted sets would have to be tied to the account, not to the specific GM crafting station (if there's anybody out there with more than one GM crafting station of the same type).
This would allow for creativity in player housing, and in particular, in player housing that is meant to be accessible to other players than just the house owner. (For instance: Guild houses.)
For instance... So long as you *owned* a Grand Master Blacksmithing Station placed somewhere in any one of your houses (to attune sets to), you could actually use something else, like an Anvil of Old Orsinium, as your *effective* Grand Master Blacksmithing Station in a different house. Or you could use a Clockwork Blacksmithing Station if you decided to buy one of those with crowns for the look of the thing. Or you could even use a plain old regular Blacksmithing Station if you want to look cheap.
It wouldn't change the effective ability but it would be infinitely cooler.
I'm imagining a guild house which uses an all-Antiquity set as their Grand Master stations...

✭Note: I mean "all of that type owned by the player", not "all of that type anywhere in the world".
For instance:
Right now I've managed to attune 10 complete sets to all four of my GM stations.
So long as I have those GM stations placed within one of my houses, I'd like to be able to craft those 10 sets - and any future ones I install - at crafting stations of different types placed within different houses. Not, of course, in a house owned by another player (where it would be tied to whether *they* had GM stations and which sets *they* had attuned) or in the wild (which would allow crafting of only their native set, if any, or no set at all if they are generic).0 -
Zyaedra✭✭✭I like this idea. I was hoping for a while that they would make the grand master stations a collection item, this way once collected, they could be placed in all owned houses. (Edit: by collection item, I mean like the armory station, Replica of the Xinchei-Konu, and other collected furnishings that don't take up inventory space but can be placed in any house once.)
FWIW, at least the vouchers are a lot easier to come by now than they used to be, thanks to jewelry writs.Edited by Zyaedra on December 12, 2024 11:21PM0
