Guild Wars 2

I’m probably alone on this, but I absolutely despise crafting. Just hate it.
There is nothing exciting about pulling out a mining pick or small pruning knife to harvest some carrots in the the middle of the northern, desolate, monster laden tundra.
Like carrots would even grow there!!!

Anyway…
How’s about a tradesman profession that rewards the adventurer with extra cash per drop, or a better gem exchange rate or something along those lines.?
I just think that the whole process of farming materials is a god awful way to eat up your gaming experience. And I have yet to see a game that makes crafting actually exciting.
thanks.

Though I disagree with the dislike of crafting, I do think a tradesman profession could be a very neat idea. Especially if they could set up their own player shops or act as a vendor to their friends. However, giving a player access to more/better drops or gold would probably make this a must have for many of the hardcore players. I think some of this could use some balance, or a bit of a money sink as you level the profession, since almost all the other professions are a bit of a monetary sink until you cap them.

No to anything that will give a player in game monetary advantage over other players. Not crafting gives you no disadvantage over players who do craft. You can buy legendaries so you don’t have to worry about that. You can buy the best armor in the game.

Especially one that essentially acts like the Trading Post.

It would be disadvantageous to the person who found the Tradesmen profession to be just as boring as you find crafting.
