For some time we had our crafting discipline-specific backpacks that we can make, however there is no Ascended tier for them. I propose adding a recipe to craft Ascended version of these backpacks, that would also serve as portable crafting stations.

There’s no ascended tier because there are other ascended back items already available to be crafted. The craftable back items introduced with the NPE stuff were meant to be for those who aren’t level 80 (hence why the top tier of those back pieces is 78 and not 80).

There are also already portable crafting stations. You can buy http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Guild_Weapon_Stations and http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Guild_Armor_Stations

Not that I’m against it, but do you often find yourself needing to craft in the field? Heading back to town always seemed easy enough.

Not everyone has access to guild commendations.

You dont need commendations. You can use merits and influence. Though, to be fair, if you have merits and influence, you have commendations.

Kinda a similar issue. Us smaller guilds can’t get merits at all.

it would be pretty cool if the backpacks came with that sorta functionality.

For starters, the basic cooking backpack would allow for crafting of food from level 0-50, and the next tier from 0-100. Perhaps maybe giving them a little more use compared to other backpacks in the game?

If your guild is so small that you cant even complete a tier 1 bounty (which awards 15 merits), you’ve probably got less than 5 people in your guild. My bank guild has bounty training unlocked already, and I’ve simply spent gold on the influence to get there.

I think I have all categories up to rank four.

At this point I have two active members, myself and my friend. Two occasionally active members, and maybe three others that pop in every few months.

We used to have twenty at best, with maybe 4-8 active at any given time, all friends that came here after CoH was killed. Most of them have gone elsewhere due to dissatisfaction with the game, sadly.

to be fair CoH had a portable crafting station that was pretty handy, so it goes to show it’s been done and worked before. It also meant not having to standing mobs of people casting abilities, or in GW2’s case, using the annoying talking pets or granting auto-boons every few seconds.

These used to be in the gem store. I don’t think they’ve been back since their introduction. Crafting stations also serve as bank access. That is not something you can ignore.
