I personally didnt have a problem figuring it out, but some players either dont oay attention, or cant quite figure it out somehow.
More than one person spent all their jute etc on making the same req 1 simple armor for armorsmithing, until level 40 (crazy) and then either had to pay, or go back and attempt to farm jute, and just gave up.
I found it somewhat easy, but some are not so keen.
Maybe just say, combine these two armor (padding/panel) pieces, with an incription you can make here, and make whatever item is based i the inscription, best way to level crafting, etc.
