To Craft, Or Not To Craft

World Builder Dave “Mahrin Skel” Rickey stopped by the Camelot Vault Boards to address some concerns over trade skills.

durich wondered why trade skills have not been implemented yet…

I hope Mythic doesn’t pull a Verant and release the game without trade skills. They only have 5 months until their expected release, I can tell you trade skills will easily take that long to implement/test/debug.

Mahrin Skel:

No trade skills yet because the idiot in charge of doing them has been overloaded with other tasks and hasn’t gotten them done. A new World Builder was just hired who will be taking over a lot of the day-to-day economy-related tasks (building treasure tables, vetting quest rewards, chasing bugs in objects, etc.), which will allow the idiot in question the time to go full-bore on trades and player economy stuff.

Lussid went for the long shot and made it…

I know this is a looooooooooooooooooong shot but I want to throw it out there anyway.

I would love to see players be able to put their names on items they make.

Mahrin Skel:

“Makers Marks” is one of the things I plan on having, our system can support it and I always thought they were cool.
