I'd put the tradeskill window in the same line as item links, sure it's not classic, but at the same time it was one of the few improvements that actually made the game better imo.
I can see it from both points of view in that the devs want to create as close to classic as they possibly can, and if you start leaving in bits and pieces from later expansions then what you end up with is neither classic , nor current eq but an idea that is away from what you initially wanted.
There will be those who complain about certain things that others will want left in, in this situation, you can't please all the people all the time, and the fairest way to deal with that would be to just go to the old "this is how it was in classic, this is how it will be"
So whilst i may have said i preferred it the other way, i think in order to preserve integrity it should probably be left as it is now [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] |
If players had to build the search database on their own by experimenting I would agree that the tradeskill gui is better. However, automatically giving the player access to the search database without first exploring and experimenting, for me anyway, is just people wanting to cheat.
Just tell me: What's more important to you, being able to search any recipe so that you can train up your tradeskill as fast as possible, or being able to select a known recipe and producing the item without having to drag the components from another bag to the tradeskill container?
I agree with those who just want to be able to reduce the clicking, but not those who want to remove the journey just because they've already done it before and it's not fun anymore.
I don't know about you, but I value people more who read the tradeskill books to find recipes and experiment to find new ones. I think they earned their craft. This is true even for people who have made multiple blacksmithing characters and who might feel that adding the recipes to all of their characters is tremendously tedious. Just remember, it's only tedious because you chose to raise blacksmithing on several characters at once or in succession. You have already eaten up the content in the game, so nothing is going to make it fun again.
