The main: Blacksmith, Enchant, Woodworking, Cooking, Alchemy and Clothing.
For example
The sub-category for:
- blacksmith: Weapon, Gear, Furniture
- enchant: Jewelry, glyphes/runes
- woodworking: Weapons, furniture, mounts (boats, Caravane)
- cooking: Food/drink, ...
- alchemy: Potions, heal- & poison
- clothing: Gear, gear for mounts, furniture
I hope we can craft guild structures together that are functional too ^^
We've already started to see that the Freehold housing has racial styles, so I hope that means we can create matching furniture in those styles. It might help economic trade as well, if you buy and sell styles you don't normally have access too.

Upon figuring it out you can now use future drops to deconstruct and gain materials from it, work to mass produce and sell the loot. With this concept the Boss would always be relevant since they drop loot to craft what you want and said materials could be used in future recipes.
As for limiting the number of crafts per character. I'm against this because it generally just causes a person to make another character which in my case I hate doing, other don't mind and actually enjoy it. It also limits the immersion of some crafting recipes (ie making a couch may require both a carpentry skill and a textile skill unless its a hippy beanbag chair).
Obviously unique and interesting furniture crafting systems. Would be an interesting idea if you could craft specific items with trophies earned from slaying boss monsters or doing very hard quests. Just a little something to show off to your dinner party guests a chair made out of a huge dragon head etc xD

I should add, by requiring casters to channel their mana into the device to amplify it's powers or whatever... kinda like what you see in the Elder Scrolls Online castle siege...
You could also create defensive shielding in a similar manner to allow for melee to close the gap....mage already has a barrier of sorts... amplify that over a larger area, take the hits for as long as you can keep it up.
