Crafting with No Discord and without a Guild

in General Discussion
As a solo player, I do not mind gathering mats to craft the gear. What is getting old, because I am, is having to remember which town has said App or Jm. Then having to travel to one town to demote a craft in order to go to other town in order to promote a craft. Being capped at 5 when you need X amount from multiple is not conducive and far more grindy via promote/demote, etc..


-Could a NPC be placed in your home node to allow the promote/demote of crafting bumps for all?
-Could a Node be able to Unlock all crafting buildings to full potential and be tied to siege? Meaning, you have to be a citizen
in order to use all of the crafting unlocked. If destroyed, time to rebuild. Maybe that is too harsh, I'm just spit balling here.

-These suggestions are not tied to the market. Market per node still open to all via buy/sell/trade. At least in my thought process.

Thanks for reading

    The reason it is difficult is because that is not how the game is designed to be played.

    In fact, you are only able to do things this way because of tools specific to testing.

    The way you are "supposed" to play the game is by purchasing the things you can't craft from those that can, as opposed to demoting and promoting to craft them.

    Demoting should reset the level of that skill to the rank you demoted to. It should be something you hardly if ever do. Just my opinion. Crafters should be relying on each other, friends, family, guild, and market to get parts they need they can't make. If you allow someone to do everything or even most everything, even if they put the time into gathering, leveling, ect, it'd go directly against the design of the game.

    This is an MMO. So this game is not meant to be played solo all the time. And that also should go for crafting. You need to work with other crafters to make items.

    So I do not mind that it is this way. Join a guild, look for some friends and work together on crafting items.

    Serios ? who say that i cannot play all time solo ? Put to ass your guild for me it ussless shit nothing more, if game will not give way to play 100% solo then will be refaunds and you will sit with 0 population there.

    If you want to lean into solo play and participate in the gathering and crafting economy heavily I'd strongly recommend getting a second account so you can double your storage space and trade more easily.

    Has Intrepid said solo play won't be possible?

    It isn't that it won't be possible, but that the game is literally designed from the ground up to encourage you to directly work with others.

    If you want to go against that, have at it.
