this is my sig-------->

You will see others with it as it is the best sig ever, but tis mine.

  How is the crafting in this game? Is it useful? Is the best gear  from crafting? is it fun? Is it mindless click here to make 1`2000 items or is it more in depth than that?

 

   I know crafting is generally an afterthought in games, and especially in an rvr game..but wow crafting and aoc crafting (aoc crafting--LOLOLOLO) both sucked and were useless timesinks. Hoping the crafting in war is useful and fun.

Truthfully and honestly crafting is an absolute joke and the only reason at all to even pick up a trade skill in beta is to get enough money to buy a mount.

I tried apoth and made it to 4th skill before giving up on it. It made some decent potions, but it was the cost of the ingredients that stopped me. Sure they are not all that expensive, but I ended up blowing 2 levels worth of skill funds on it :P

Other than that its fairly easy to understand and follow. At most it will take you 2 seconds to figure it out (hardest part was finding the apoth skill in my abilities :P)

Crafting is the one area I feel is still incomplete. Not enough crafting types currently in game but there is groundwork in place for some additional types. What is in is so so and CAN be useful but compared to crafting in other games it is minimalistic at best.  

An earlier post mentioned getting mount money. Its not really that there is a market for the stuff but that the raw materials you can get off of corpses you can sell to vendors to help augment your cash flow. There will be a player market but its unclear at this time how much it will be utilized with crafting materials.

Waiting for: A skill-based MMO with Freedom and Consequence.
Woe to thee, the pierce-ed.

Yeah there a market, it's called the NPC vendor.

 

WAR is a great MMO but has taken about 5 steps backwards in terms of crafting/economy. 

 

Burnt out of WoW and WoW's PvP, WAR is for you.  Looking for an alternative game experience, WAR is not for you.
