Should crafted armor and weapons be better than artifacts?

[Grokmar]

Crafted gear should always be better than loot. After all - we are playing MMORPG, not Diablo.

Dungeons should drop only crafting ingredients and crafting tools.

PoFs must be removed.

Insurance must be modified, so it returns you gold, not your entire gear.

Then and only then will we see a real interaction, player-driven economy and real profession, called "Crafter".

Everyone in the game wears millions of gold worth of crafted/imbued/reforged gear.
Most artifacts are worthless.
Most dungeon loot is garbage.

And somehow it isn't enough? Crafting doesn't need any more help. What this game needs is a chance for someone to go into a dungeon and actually get an item someone might equip.

I think it is good as it is right now, a good balance between uber items from shame and the revamped dungeons and great possibilities through crafting/reforging/imbuing...but I play Siege, so I am never "done" suitwise since I can loose my best suit right around the next corner.....keeps the game interesting!

Since everyone has built their own crafter now, this would ruin any interaction between players. People need a reason to go to dungeons, if there isnt a reason people will just login buy bkits and craft theri stuff and go do whatever they want. I mean remember when ornaments cost 40+mil. Now they are like 10-15 cause crafting destroyed any reason to go get one. Suits are so ridiculous now that even shame style loot is completely worthless. Like I said before SSI jewels and the ever superlucky legendary drop is only reason to even bother anymore. Crafters of the old day shot themselves in the foot by overpricing everything, which forced people to make their own crafters and get ten times as much stuff for less then a third of what it would have cost to buy. It is never going to be the same cause the hole is dug too deep for items now.
