Capped crafters

[ChillyDawg]

OK, theres a fair few of us old bastards out there whov capped one or another tradeskills, and id like to pose a question:

Do you actually craft anymore? Or at least do you craft as much when u were cap -10 points?

I sure as hell dont, some of you may remember me sat in diogel trying to sell ablatives at cost+20g by the bucket load trying to ding 1144, but as soon as i capped i just couldnt be arsed any more, the fun was gone, and my lvl 35 sorc looked very appealing.

I rekon there should be useless products that are avaialble once youv capped your skill that you can make, like the silly roleplaying robes the dude in humb sells, or a proc that doesnt actually do anything, or a potion that reduces your HP or something.

Something random, something useless and something to spend time on while waitign for orders that will actually make you some (maybe) $$$.

Discuss

(btw: that sorc is now lvl 46 only a few weeks since i capped as well )

ive capped my sc long ago,... after 2-3 months i cba to make sc anymore, too damn boring.

and wc, after i capped im not getting 1/3 of the orders i had before i capped, so im hardly making any 99%/100% orders anymore

capped SC months ago only do SC when i really have too or if my Mrs nags too much.

once the highest item goes yellow i am not that bothered , also with the coming changes in crafting i will be up my wc and fletching as fletching cap raises to 1130 (approx) in 1.66

I stopped taking wc orders shortly after capping and dinging 50, a case of been there done that, although i still do the odd one or 2 orders nowadays.

But when they increase the cap, im sure all the currently capped and retired crafters will be busy again

ye, i already got couple of orders on the new weapons

Rarely crafted for anything but Guild anyways, but when I capped that was certainly it for me

You know the worst thing about being close to cap was bloody shields. Everyone wanted MP shields but they were already grey, boring as hell and in one case (170 retries) took to long to make

 

[ChillyDawg]

Hmm, pretty much as i suspected

 

[Bellona]

there is not orders to get

then why stand in diogel all night

 

[Jerelyn]

as a mid fletcher i don't get alot of orders... but i still craft as much as i did when i tried reaching maximum.. if not in fletching, then to build up a stock

i used to actually enjoy building up stock, when i knew i had the tinyest of chances to ding my last point, but now its boring

hum yeh, and i hope they dont do something silly like this with weaponcraft when ToA arrives.... sheesh, the thought of having to get another 15 points when 1.64 comes out is bad enough.

Think there ain't a day I don't log my crafter Every single day I'm either salvaging or just got order in and when I'm online with him I get plenty of orders as well.

 

[filofax]

Hehe I'm the exact opposite atm, after finding crafting incredibly boring but afterall took my WC to LGm after like a years of playing i became fanatic, that was a week ago I dinged LGm WC, and now im sitting here 990 tailor and 650 AC swearing over that I dont have my WC on other account so I can take orders while crafting Wierd how it can shift like that, and I cant wait until housing comes out and I can use the consign merchants for selling

fletch cap rise

what new items are they putting into fletch to rise the cap? I think I saw something somewhere about trophy odds and sods, but thought that was for alchemy...

In addition to the alch new thingies, theres gonna be non-useful stuff put into all crafts i believe, so that i make some potion at 250g, then a fletcher makes a nice cupbored, then the WC makes the er......bong and then some other fool glues it all together with my potion/glue

or something...

 

[legaoniel.old]

fletch cap

Hmm, those new staffs and bows look pretty cool - probably won't feel the same when trying to raise cap again though, lol..

 

[ChillyDawg]

[Bluebolts]
