Hello! Thanks for taking the time to read this...
I'd like to share my experience of how tradeskilling is now... I've discussed this with other Tradeskillers and we all have a similar experience.
Its a lot of work getting tradeskills up. Tens of thousands of clicks, many hours of farming, and as it is now, the rewards are very limited and not very lucritive anymore (It probably was better, but dropped loot seems better than most anything tradeskilled now).
I am a master brewer, tailor, and have high pottery/baking. And what I'm actually able to sell is an occasional Robe of flowing water, and some EQ/Superior type 5 augs. I've failed 4x with 255 Tailoring to make a Mantle of the forest, and few people seem to be interested in Imp Hide or Shadowsilk. There's almost nothing to sell in brewing, and the few stat drinks aren't really worth making.
So what I'm suggesting is additional top end special combine items like mantle of the forest or the Robe of flowing water - for tailoring, and similar for the other tradeskills, which I've heard have similar issues with not having goods to sell that have a market or are worth buying.
I think originally when implemented tradeskill items were great, shadowsilk for example is still pretty good, but with the increasing quality of dropped goods, these are much hard to sell.
Anyways, I know there is a tradeskill change in the works... but I just thought I would bump the issue. There needs to be more to sell, perhaps with items that are very rare, possibly raid only found, or less rare but still high skill to make (260, etc)...
You probably know this, but us tradeskillers would like to see if anything can be done, and we'd like to help - if you need it! Thanks!
