Crafting : Really worth it anymore?

All good suggestions, but let me throw a monkey wrench into this…

The following information is from Brady Games “Official” GW2 guide.

Ettins – Kessex Hills
30 minutes killing – no bone shards

Risen – Kessex hills
30 minutes killing – no bone shards

Krait – Kessex Hills
15 minutes farming – no bone shards

Ebonhawke (Fields of Ruin)
- did not even see any Skritt around

Kessex Hills – Eukaryote Caves (sp?)
- Trolls – no bone shards

Gendarran Hills
- Trolls (Guardian Pass) – 30 minutes no bone shards

Lorna’s Pass
- Skritt mining hole – 20 minutes no bone shards

See what I am getting at? I was spread around a lot…but still no bone shards.

I took an hour or two break in between each attempt and tried this same concept again, two more times, and still same results.

Not one single bone shard drop today at all.

What I am saying is the “anti farm code” might have throttled crafting drops way too low when the devs added these other things as drop items….I have 5 million pounds of butter now…as probably everyone else does.

So AreaNet decided to tell us that they were going to add sticks of butter as a drop rate item. In the process, they did not tell us they were scaling back all the other fine crafting items needed to advance crafting.

Spent the whole day hunting Bone and Bone Shards, and not one has dropped since 10 am this morning (EST).

If this is a glitch, please fix it.
