[2019] Crafting Forge

I’m really interested in what people think on this topic. It’s something that comes up in discussions for us and hearing how the community feels about it would be great!

It’s mostly there as a tutorial to ensure you know about the window.

Lots of great feedback in here. I didn’t want to make mention of how we were considering it at first just to see how people were feeling about it.

Some ideas that have been proposed are restricting some more advanced crafting methods to town, giving lower fracture chances in town, allowing you to “buy” infinite shatter stone uses in town with lower shard output than normal, and several others that I can’t remember off the top of my head.

We aren’t really sold on any of these ideas right now and it appears that most of the people here aren’t huge on the idea of location specific forging. I think that if we did go forward with something like this, it would be adding in more options in to the town version instead of removing what’s already available. The danger with that is we might make it feel mandatory to go back to town to craft anyways. We do want it to feel good crafting out in the field.

If you have any ideas of things we could add to town with regards to crafting that would be cool but wouldn’t make it feel mandatory to go back to town, please leave them here.
