Must say that the crafting system is just a tool. What I like is the gameplay. And the system doesn’t forbid anyone to test whatever they want.
I said it lot of times… I believe the problem is Brunt. I believe also they won’t redo the system… and tbh I think that it would not be really a good point as it would delay content.
Also, the problem is just cause people want everything perfect… if you want an excellent weapon, it is not that hard. However, when you restrain your wishes, you also get lower odds to get what you want (clearly shown in the spreadsheet I did to calculate odds to obtain a perfect weapon or an excellent one).
