Nothing new tbh.

Thanks for posting. Good read.

Most intriguing. Going to read it right now.

Isn't this just a collection of Mister Sage's comments the other day?

From the looks of it, yep. Thats why i said nothing new.

More or less, yes A good summery none the less.

Yeah, they're trying to deflect the firestorm in the crafting community because end-game crafting is useless compared to loot drops. Hopefully they'll change it so that crafters will be able to apply at least some of the vastly superior Veteran Rank set bonuses to crafted gear, or at the very least require that a skilled (knows all 8 traits) crafter will be needed to upgrade epic loot to legendary.

to degrade from a crafter to a upgrader is sad.... I much prefer they add raid craft station in the raid and the raid drop material for it (doesn't neccessary from the boss).

i planned to be a Master crafstmen. but apparently this is destroyed now and useless to craft because endgame mobb / boss drops will be equal to or sometimes better then what i could have hand crafted!

when you add this to the fact that i will be playing a dunmer and planned to be a stealth duel wielding assassin that the khajiit racial bonus has better then me then basicly why am i even bothering playing elderscrolls online at all

youve ruined the lore

you have ruined the crafting

youve ruined the enchanting

removed all slavery

and given the best stealth racials to the khajiit

allowed the stupid add-on cheats

promote stupidity and demote origonal es style

For a moment I thought you may of been a little creative and wrote us a poem, what a shame just another uncreative whiner.

Stop being so melodramatic. Dunmer Nightblades will be just as effective or better than Khajiit Nightblades, if played right. Crafting is viable at end-game; and required.

Why are you complaining?

You've ruined the lore

And slavery's gone

Crafting is poor

This game is no fun

I lament and mourn

o'er fictional cheats

I deride and scorn

Oh ZOS, hear my bleats!

I'm raising the roof

My pants in a bunch

But I know, in truth

I'll be there at launch!

Better?

Because apparently people wanted to make "a crafter" rather then a character with a crafting skill.

10/10 would read again.

I dont know, why are you?

Judging by your posts it just makes you angry.

Thank-you for this!

Excellent! Bravo! You win the internets.

Hehe gotta love some epic piece of broetry

So, it's possible to master all crafting skills. Just respec and put all points in craftings skills. And when you are done, respec again to damage skills

That is good news. I'll max multiple characters anyway. I have eight max levels in GW2 and many more in other games. Leveling is my passion
