The last couple of days, I've been working on making some new files (located as stickies in the Craftsman forum) concerning the 8 BOD systems as they currently stand.
The first, BOD Point Systems by Skill, does away with the confusing and inaccurate tables of the uo.com wiki, taking them back to the underlying point systems, and pointing out which Larges actually can be colored material (currently, that wiki had most of the LBODs listed as being color-possible, with point values, that are actually base material only).
The second, BODs - which ones are bugged, is a discussion of which BOD systems have flaws, especially in relation to that previously-mentioned wiki's massively incorrect tables. It also suggests a revised Tailor BOD system that would better match the system used by the other 7 skills (you really don't understand just HOW misaligned Tailor BODs are, until you actively compare their drop rates per reward point level in comparison to the equivalents for the other skills - especially Blacksmith).
If you're a crafter, please take the time to check them out.
