Chisels are 80% leather ?

This is pretty much the reason we’ve halted on several decorations. It was over 100g per decoration from the leather alone.
Agreed. Making chisels with top-tier leather is very bank-breaking.
Specifically, to make the Melandru Statue:
- 1 grandmaster finishing kit (6 ori ingots, 2 ancient wood planks, 2 crystalline bottles, 1 jug of water, 3 pouches black pigment, 3 pouches white pigment, 5 cyrtalline dust, resonanting sliver)
- 1 visage of melandru (rare drop or around 7g)
- 30 orichalcum chisels (that’s 1 ori ingot and 12 hardened leather sections X 30 = 360 top tier leather)
- 25 basic boulders (24 s each)
Yeah. There’s places for sinks but decorations don’t need to be a big source of them, or they could only require the extremely cheap mats that sell for coppers to soak up some of the excess.
ANet may give it to you.

That is the sort of approach that got us here in the first place.

So, you’re saying that the mats that are at vendor or just above and aren’t being used should not be put into new recipes but instead should stay at vendor value and have millions on the trading post? When new recipes come out, what mats should they use instead of cheap and high volume? Because I don’t think using more expensive, lower volume mats would necessarily be better to add to new recipes.
Edit: unless your argument is that because ANet overshot on leather then they should make no effort to use cheap mats in further recipes? Well, that’s definitely an opinion but new recipes still need to have mats and better cheap and plentiful than more expensive and scarce since ANet can overshoot on either.
ANet may give it to you.

I think they need stop using stupid solutions that involve massive quantities for any single recipe because that is destined for failure in the long run.
You got two possible outcomes.
1) you successfully fix the prices of those items. Hurray. Except for all those recipes requiring large quantities of whatever material you were trying to fix. OOPS.
2) you fail to have any impact. Oh well …
Nothing in scribing makes any sense. Why the hell do I need a finishing kit to make a campfire? I’ve built plenty of campfires and never once did it require a pen, ink, sandpaper, and blotting powder.
Crafting in general is pretty messed up. Leather being used for so much, for the longest time we couldn’t get a hold of enough flax seeds, meanwhile silver and gold are pretty much useless. Every couple of months materials like the leather component of chisels needs to be reevaluated, and in this case lowered. While vendor value materials should be used for something (like passion fruit).

No doubt. But my post didn’t say anything about using “massive quantities.” It was about using cheap, abundant items (and yes, it will soak up some of the excess) instead of more expensive and scarcer items (that have little to no excess to soak up).
