Guild Wars 2

4 logs to make one plank? On Tier 2???

I understand that awhile back that there was just so much wood and not a need for it, but you’ve skewed it too far in the other direction.

I am out there everyday with my low level and high level toons harvesting soft wood logs and I still can’t advance more than 1 or 2 points on my crafters everyday.

I have an artificer (and before you say POTIONS, I’ve run out of dusts, and that is like 200x more exspensive than wood) and a huntsman, and they both need the wood. And my highest level toon isn’t as rich as she used to be.

at 20c per wood, it costs me 50s for 250 logs. 1g for 500, 2g for 400 and 400 only makes 100 planks…100 planks is NOT enough to get through a tier, and certainly not enough to get two toons through all the need for these professions. Yes, I realize you can break down your crafted stuff to get your mats back, but you put 4 wood in for a plank, use 3-4 planks per craft, and you get anywhere from 1-3 logs back from decon (assuming you don’t get ORE) you can’t even make one plank again. So every time I craft something, I just decon it and move on.

Did they change this recently? I thought it always required 4.

It required 2. Then people complained there was too much wood. So they upped some recipes to 3 logs per plank, and I guess some tiers to 4

I find it odd that T1 was 3, T2 is 4, T3 is 3, T4 is 3…

Just set it to 2 and let people sell their stuff off.

At most, you should need 348 soft wood logs. I followed that guide to 400 & it was quick & easy. Hardest part was going out to a spot to farm up a few mats for recipies/weapons I wanted to actually use that were not part of that guide.

Looking through the guide though, that is the only teir that does need the most wood. I did not have a problem with wood as I salavaged nearly all loot I got from mobs, white/blue/green(depending on rune &/or TP price).

I was also surprised by the sudden large-ness of wood required at that tier. but, well, wood is easy enough to get. wood and ore as you can always salvage stuff. scraps are still gonna be a diff matter altogether tho as there’s only 1 way to acquire them. (well, technically, you can get them off bags, but point is they’re mob drop not resource node)
