With the crafting changes to armor coming, and currently crafted gear is extremely strong.
 
 
I was curious if anyone else was going to do this.
 
 
I plan on getting my alts into Ilum, best bags i can give them, and stock them all full of crafted armor.
Since the values are getting reduced alot, this gear could be very valuable later on due to its better then current purples in most cases.
 
 
I think you can fit what, 100 pieces of armor per alt ?
 
Thoughts ?

I thought about it, but realized I am definitely too lazy for such a massive business venture. :P
Also since stats will be rebalanced too, you wouldn't even know how exactly to charge the items. You might go all AP stat only to have people scoff at the gear as crit severity becomes more powerful. It's a major gamble in my opinion.

			Thought about it also, but with the possible stat change as mentioned, i dont dare risk all my money on this. I dont have that much to start with :P

			Where was this mentioned? Dont see it.

This is what i had found on it.
 
 
It is not. Our goal with crafting is that it should be very good, potentially (with overcharge) the BIS for that tier and that tier only. It should not be better than items a tier above it. There are two issues causing this that we are looking to address.
First is that crafted items have no minimum threshold for turning down stats you don’t want so you can turn up stats you do. Non-crafted items do have a threshold. It’s about 10% of the total budget (usually between 12-20%). So you can dump a ton of budget into the ‘better’ stats and make the crafted item better than intended.
Second is that crafted items are currently rolling way more Runes than intended. We are looking at adjusting these to something closer to:
Greens: 0-1Blues: 2Purples: 3Legendary: 4-5Artifact: 6
 
 
No more lowering 1-2 stats to 3-5 to max the others.

It is a solution, if you cannot drop the 3rd, 4th and 5th stat to nothing and have all the extra power for stat 1 and 2, you have reduced how high we get those stats.
 
 
Look at expert gear, the real issue.

Let's go ahead and quote his post before we deconstruct it.
 
 
He lists two issues with crafted gear.  Number one, you can stack a stat and minimize the rest.  Number two, crafted gear is rolling too many runeslots.
 
The rest of the post says NOTHING about number one.  It is all about their solution to number two.
 
Please, quote me the post where a dev is providing a solution to issue number one.
