Don't craft anything yet....

Looks like there is a bug that causes your crafting XP to decrease by something like 90% the first time you craft something...  Apparently it some "world property" that they are working on to fix....

Oh exciting. I was wondering how they planned to fuck this up.
  

I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.

I honestly enjoy laughing at how they fuck up each and every update more than I enjoy the new content they are putting out.

Literally nobody should be surprised by this, but true to form the fanboys on the other forums were chomping at the bit and drooling to be the first ones to craft their new shinies and then act all upset when it went exactly how every major update has gone for the last year.

Go figure.

Looks like it's safe to get in the water now, the "world property" appears to have been fixed.

old is new... what else could be expected.

as I read not long ago, in the old days the fact that games were sold on floppies/CDs/Catridges and that updating said game meant sending more floppies/CDs or replacing cartridges developpers took care to deliver a finished product that worked fine. Nowadays they don't care if there's a game breaking issue, they'll just push a new update the next day on the Internet for all to download.

Oh its even worse with non-MMOs. There have been a huge string of completely broken on release day games recently. Some have never been fixed.

"A world property" means you're in their world now.  For those already impacted, call their tech support to get fixed.  Oh, wait...

Game client at 14%... anyone make anything fun yet?

Lol in preparation for this update, occasionally when I spotted something dirt cheap on the AH with a good slotted augment(FF, heavy fort, etc, for 5-6k) I bought it. Those will be fun to craft on since blanking does not clear augment slots.

Yep, been at the system for a little over an hour and that is exactly the conclusion. I was able to make a few nice things and leveled crafting acceptably fast, but I burned through nearly all my banked essences getting there. I can CRAFT insighful stats, but I don't have the collectables. I even tried buying them in the store - you can buy any rare but the commons are random. I bought 4 boxes of commons and did not get a single "new" collectable.

Twas funny.

You don't think this was by accident on Turbine's part do you?  Milking whales out of $$ and TP while completely dry fucking the rest of their customers is about the only thing Turbine ever gets right in updates.

Sadly, recent years strongly support your hypothesis
  

Turdbin, keep changing the DDO rules, because McDonalds sold over 200 billion hamburgers by changing the recipe for their Special Sauce every couple of months to keep interest up.

Play the fucking game, gather your shit and make the stuff you want.  Turbine has to make money to provide the game.  If you are too impatient to collect things then whip out your dick and shove it in the T-hole, but don't complain it doesn't feel as nice as you want it to... it's not a pussy or an ass.

I made a few ML27 & ML28 shards to raise my skill level, but stopped after getting the ML28s to 100% success and not seeing anything higher appear in the list.  This is on the bound machine, I see up to ~ML24 on the unbound machine.

I'll save my essences until I figure out if this is a bug or working as intended.  They claimed at you'd be able to make stuff with only a 1% success chance, so the ML29+ shards should be showing up on the list after (long before, actually) you crack 100% on the ML28s.

The only other things that will raise my crafting XP are shards using the new collecables, so of course I have none of those and can't even try.

Try crafting by XP and increasing the max level on the right side.

You gotta bump up the level, too.  Make sure it's at 340.

You'll burn out at about level 381 with just essences.

Yeah you have to keep manually raising the max level, it doesn't automatically go up if you keep the crafting window open.

Close the crafting machine and re-open it to update to your newest crafting level and new stuff will appear, or manually adjust the crafting level (I think it's just above the crafting booster slot) to say: "1 to 400" instead of "1 to 260" or whatever you started with. You can make stuff with 1% chance but there is a bug I discovered if you chance is below 6% (from my limited testing) it doesn't take success boosters into account.
