My official Masterwork prediction

With the recent (awesome) inclusion of both skill specialization and exceptional crafts during batching, here's my official prediction.

We will soon see the inclusion of something like Masterworked crafting results when making items one at a time. Items that are even more rare and superior to exceptionally crafted items.

I will take this prediction one step further. The masterwork items will be the ones capable of gaining history during use. Meaning the special titles and abilities like Sword of Skeleton slaying by destroying skeletons or Leather Armor of Fire Resistance from fighting elementals.

 

That would actually be pretty cool. I like *crosses fingers*

 

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the ideas. Love. Love. Love.
Am I clear?
Love.

 

Additionally, we are also going to see a further reduction in the base resources needed to craft normal/basic items, as exceptional or masterwork refinined materials will be needed.

Non-exceptional and non-masterwork items will be easier to produce, further differentiating crafting specialists from combat specialists and refining specialists. It will be viable for anyone to make their own gear, similar to how it is now, but it will be a little easier on beginning crafters. Exceptional crafts during batching was only the first step.

 

Keep dreaming.
