i never seen crafting system more tiresome and useless than EQ1
essentially entire "crafting" process consists of tediously picking up items 1 by one and putting them into a container , clicking combine and praying something good will come out.
At least advance search system come out, it made it easier on my fingers.
But even with that - crafting outside of first few skill levels was utterly useless.
Making patchwork at level 10 was awesome, back in 1999, beyond that, you had to burn THOUSANDS of plat into a skill, and never see any practical gain out of it.
At the end - it just not worth the effort. By the time you can have those KKs of plat, you will already have better gear than you can possible craft.

If you never seen, you really should, see EQ-2 crafting system - now that is a marvel to be hold.
First of all, there is an actual CRAFTING PROCESS, and second, and most important, you actually can craft items that is an upgrade to you at almost any level - you only need to invest time to gather your own materials
