when sony first released star wars galaxies, it came with simply the best crafting system ever seen in any mmo to that point, or since. If EQ Next has as much attention to detail as that had it will be fantastic
Everything that was crafted used resources of varying quality. 2 T21 rifles made by the same person but not in a factory will probably have different stats. 2 rifles made by different people might have vastly different stats depending on the quality of resources that went into the manufacture
it meant that people who wanted to just craft could do so, and often their products were the best quality and in demand. If you put the time in to gather the best of everything (or pay people to go get them / buy of suppliers) then your product benefitted.
