Yes... I think verant is still riding their same old no class useless
fanatic rage... thats why you see gate potions cost about 1000pp, just
because all the whining wizards and druids (im a druid btw, and they whine
ALOT, and have nothing to whine about!) think that they will become useless
in groups... So I think this is part of it, they dont want to make
druids/enchanters/necros/sks feel less important by making it easy to
obtain, so then people will think hmmm why dont I just get a druid or ranger
to cast enduring breath instead of wasting 1000pp on a rebreather. Its a big
damn game for verant (literally) so they gotta make it as "hard" as possible
=(. Not to mention that they doomed their own player economy by their making
trade skills damn near worthless, and weve seen evidence of that,
jewelcrafters have to sell their items at insane prices because they fail
even at 200 skill, so nobody buys them. 600pp for a BP ring... hmm maybe I
can just keep my dervish rings and get a shaman in the party (I know its a
ludicrous thought but apparently this is what brad mcquaid thinks). lemme
know what you guys think on this whole trade skill business.
