1: Elemental modifiers now only apply to weapon attack.
2: The range of forgable weapons never changed, and with the introduction of elemental converters, makes them totally obselete.
3: The Forging ranking system, unlike brewing, has no benefits except getting your char name listed on a command.
2 suggestions I have:
1: Enable forging of Elemental Trans / 3rd class weapons that require bradium or HD ori <---- Im helping WP think of ways to earn $$
Examples:
Carga Mace
Tae Goo Lyeon
Grimtooth
Durga
Curved Sword
Chrome Metal Sword
Platinum Shotel
Crescent Scythe
Berdysz
Bradium Stone Hammer
Guillotine
2: Give some feasable benefits for the ranking system, examples:
Increased success rates for forging and refining your own forged weapons?
As for the brewing system, I find that it discourages new comers from brewing, as the point system rankings are already so beyond their reach. Not too worried about the top 10 alchemists controlling the marker though. They still have to compete among the 10 of them, and even if they agree to anti-competition rates, I guess people will resort to using Mastela fruit anyway.
I feel it would be good if the ranking benefit was reworked so that it doesn't make slims from all other alchems worthless. Its like the only thing worth brewing and selling in the market. Witch starsands are so expensive now, and even if they sold their non ranked slims below cost price in a bid to climb the ranks, I don't think anyone would buy them still. Would you buy a non ranked Slim for say 4K? (Just the cost of the Starsand and white herb) I noticed that slims have a -10% success rate to make. Maybe we could switch the ranking benefit to removing this penalty for the top 10 alchems instead, and let all slims have that bonus 50% heal.
Anyway the most important part of my topic, I was hoping that alchems can brew Slim Blues too. Would be a nice pot to have for all purposes.
