Soooooo, has anyone noticed any crafting changes with the patch??

[Keshian]

Can over ;evel 31 get the message now??

Are the crafting percentages or rates better now??

Are horses reasonable??

[Slamz]

Wondering about this, myself.  There is no difference in the listed discount or cost in the crafting menu.  Maybe the web portion of strategus has not been updated yet.

Supposedly chadz said there was gonna be 50% cheaper crafting? That should make lots of things more viable.

[Huey Newton]

even tho u can reuse horses if mounted when battle ends, they are still expensive as balls

tho not a terrible idea.
we'll see soon if its viable

[Braeden]

Everyone voted for preserving gear and getting paid gold instead of 50% cheaper crafting.

Fools!  You've doomed us all!

(also afaik nothing has changed yet, should be fairly noticeable when it is)

I would love to see this, but my fear would be that all those that have hoarded their gold (rather than fight) will be given a distinct advantage.  Explanation:  a clan that has hoarded gold with 1,000,000 worth of buying power now has gold with 2,000,000 buying power.  While the small clan who as managed only 50k now has 100k.  Each get doubled and can buy more equipment, but their is a huge difference in potential staying power...its was 950k in favor of large clan, after this is implemented it becomes 1.9kk in favor of the larger clan.

What about the distance factor from regional specific items. Is that fixed now? Is it feasible to make money off of?
