    I would very much like to items crafted by a player be labeled with "Crafted by <Skill Level Qualifier> <Craft School> <Character Name>" instead of just "Crafted by <Character Name>"

    This change would help us feel more rewarded for our hard work in our crafting professions and would also help advertise our skill level to second and third party owners of the crafted gear.

    Example:
    "Crafted by Apprentice Tailor Mikayl Danagaul"
    "Crafted by Master Alchemist Mikayl Danagaul"
    "Crafted by Grand Master Blacksmith Mikayl Danagaul"

    No. Two swords with the same stats, crafted by people with two different crafting levels, nonetheless have the same stats.

    I think that's part of the reason this should be added. A Blacksmith at level 60 can craft just about anything with a 23% exceptional chance. A blacksmith at level 100 (Grandmaster) gets the exact same odds as the level 60 Blacksmith, but spent 16 times the experience to get there.

    There should be some incentive or marker to incentivize grandmastering.

    I hope and expect that the crafter's skill will be represented by the item itself with better stats, attributes and/or design.

    I would like to see the enchanter's name on the equipment too. I mean... I did half the work!

    I second this. It would be cool if the items listed all the players who did work on them: crafted by, enchanted by, masterworked by... etc.

    Personally, I think just having the name of the crafter is plenty.

    Otherwise wouldn't it really need to say
    "Cafted by Grand Master Blacksmith Rofo".
    "Master worked by Elder Grand Master Blacksmithing Masterwork Armorsmith Rofo"
    "Enchanted by Elder Grand Master Alchemist Bob"


    Cause really everyone could give a crap less if you GM'd Blacksmithing,
    if you aren't beyound GM in Masterwork and the specialty trees beneath it, then there really isn't any reason to seek you out, because there is nothing special about your skills.
    The sword you made with your GM blacksmith skill is exactly the same as the one made by a dude just grinding up his skill.
    Now if you want to put the name of the person that put the +7 on the chest piece.. now you've got something that people will want to know..

    Enchanter's have always been the silent heroes now that I think about it... We don't need any credit :p.
