Can't wait
How do you buy recipes from plat store or can you buy off other players?
when does this go live! been waiting for crafting.
Asommers said that lol for what I read
The thread in trader's market says "The forging add on will have you to combine different items to make a new one." Doesn't mean two existing items being crafted into one.
Let me start by saying this is an awesome addition to the game. Back when I played World of Warcraft, crafting was one of the most enjoyable aspects. A couple of things I'd like to see changed. First, recipes should be permanently learnable . While I totally support the need for spending platinum so you guys can make your revenue, having to spend 10 platinum on a recipe every time I want to craft something when I already had to grind out/buy the materials is harsh. As it stands, I'll only look at crafting something at end game if it'll be better than a drop I could get instead since crafting something means I have to spend platinum. Also, I agree that the materials should stack.
The earlier suggestion to have some kind of progression similar to other games for crafting I think is a really good one. Rather than charging platinum and/or high gold prices on recipes and materials, you could instead have progressive crafting proficiencies that you would have to pay platinum to learn, but to progress to more advanced proficiencies, you'd have to level up the previous one. For example, the blacksmith could charge you 10 platinum to become an apprentice, and each item you craft raises your crafting skill. Once you reached a certain level, you could then spend 10 platinum to advance to the next proficiency (such as journeyman or expert). I would still offer the recipes with a platinum price tag, but make them also buyable with gold, and make the materials cheaper since you'll have to go through a lot of them to progress.
You could also make the crafting more interesting by breaking out the recipes into separate professions (tailor, leather worker, blacksmith), with each profession requiring platinum to advance proficiency in.
Not sure if u meant to do this but it costs 7$ just to make the lv 5 sorcerers robe..
We had to repeadeatly but the cloth robe recipe shudnt u make it just one time?
Alot of ppl don't wanna buy til that's changed. Also do platinum recipes drop as plat?
how crafting works anyway? is it just to change m/s to h/s?
Where do you buy recepies? I don't see any available in the store - am I missing something?
No, Djinn. They changed the recipe. Only drops now. No buy from store.....low level recipes drop from bosses in Forest Haven, high level recipes drop from bosses in Balefort Sewers. Good luck.
Yea thats super lame. Why wouldn't they just let us pay plat for them - makes them money, makes us money. This is a pocket game - not a PC game that we want to drain hours at a time farming... :(
Thanks for the reply though - wish I woulda paid attention to recepies when it was for sale at the store because I've been through meatheads deli quite a few times and haven't seen one drop yet.
ima be honest crafting sucks :( i like it up but it sucks for those that dont know what im saying well im saying it sucks cuz ur limited to what u can do i thought we can level up the crafting skill and as we advance in levels on crafting we can craft better things but everything is already giving out...i dont mined it being there now but as for recipes and craft items taking up inventory space thats a no go for me :( is there any way crafting materials can have there own inventory separate from the normal inventory before crafting came out :) no im not hating it just what i think...
Crafting is an excellent idea. So far it hasn't done much for me as it is limited to what you can make since it is a new addition. I played Ragnarok for a long time and I found the slotted gear concept to be rather enjoyable. You could get different cards from monsters/bosses. Your weapons and gear had X number of slots and you could add a card to a slot which was a permanent move. They also had a crafting system which allowed you to make elemental weapons and such. Something similar might benefit PL a bit more than just crafting alone.
I wish we can craft and change the item colors too.. like the gems in fury shield will become color pink when crafted!
OMG if this happens this item will be more expensive than now LOL
Can we buy recipies with plat as well as farm them? I've spent countless hours farming and received nothing yet. I'd much rather pay for it - isn't the goal for PL to make money, not drain our time sitting around killing the same mob hour after hour?
Also, give us the option to edit/create lower level gear. Lvl 20 & 25 pvp is probably more popular than 50+ and would be really cool. Especially since the gear selection for 20 is so limited.
I'd love to be able to tweak my weapons/armor or create new stuff at that level :)
