Subject: Re: Starters Author: Conjur [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 17:02:24 05/20/03 Tue In reply to: Wehad 's message, "Starters" on 06:07:21 05/20/03 Tue Wehad - Thankyou for offering your services for the guild. I am painfully aware of how expensive and time consuming it is to get to the ability to make uber gear. Also your 2X price is a deep discount compared to Smooochie and the other popular SC retailers. I agree as a guild one thing we should encourage is a few peeps highly skilled in all the crafts. We are getting there but need to do more, including myself. I urge everyone to click on the Guild Roster link and each of the craft disciplines are listed and the skill level of the top 10 crafters in the guild for each crafting discipline. It usually takes 800-1100 score or so in a craft skill to make really good stuff depending on the craft. I would make 1000 a good target to shoot for to have a reasonable chance to make 99 qual items. Now - everyone - Wehad is right - Epic Armor is great and looks the best, but when we send our toons into battle with only epic in high end RVR we are gimped from the get go. I can tell you almost every quality enemy from Albion or Midgard will have maxed out Spell crafted armor and weapons. In reality its the only way to be truly competitive at the high end because your enemies will already have very high resists. Most certainly this is important for tanks and melee types - and healers who can wear good armor, yet are still vulnerable. I sometimes question the need for casters to wear SC gear because it will take 3 hits to kill you instead of 2 and you cant cast while being whacked on anyways. So the jury is still out on that in my book :) For melee types, druids, bards, and wardens I fully recommend 99 Qual SC gear. Wehad hit it right - our guild needs some more crafting experts - we are getting there , but need more peeps to pump up their stats. It takes a special person to have the patience so I'm certainly not twisting anyones arm - just know you will be doing an invaluable service for the guild and I will recognize you as such. Wehad, Shacza, Celticpride, Mynen to name a few are excellent crafters - they are available to answer your questions. Its costly, time intensive, but - eventually you will reap the reward and make a sizeable profit if you so desire. ALL of you who are doing this you have my thanks and deepest appreciation. Having internal crafting will save us all many a plat in the long run. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
