    If I were to either farm or pay for an etching I would spend more gold/time/whatever on that then I did getting the weapon in the first place.

    I got the idea from what i saw people spending on Imp. Now I was the one who talks about how prices for etch comes more on crafting and criting then getting titans.

    Sure if EME would flood embers like in previous patch it will reflect to price but just as little as 20-40k for t3 etches, ones again etching prices comes from crafting (criting for perma). But well before that, there are other things to ctrit on. Scarab, white dendrite, pure titans.

    Instead of asking for more ember we should be asking to rework that crafting nonsense that etching is. Or at list make those mats available to get other ways then criting on gathering/refining. A more relaible, steady way.

    You know I won't call myself raging but when i spend about 4k PP and get only 20 ish scarab from gathering *flips table* even my patience has limit.

    I don't even wanna talk about criting on dendrites and pure titans.

    I guess something to think about would be how would you rather have etchings made.

    You could keep the current crit to gain etchings but have more accessible materials.

    You could also leave the drops as they are but increase the crit rate chance considerably so it isn't as much of a pain to make.

    I'm not the best when it comes to what would be the best option economicly. Kamizuma would probably have the best insight on that. I personally favor the first choice for a couple of reasons. Having a lot of titans embers drop in the past seemed okay and people were able to make decent gold off etchings. The second reason is looking at future changes to the game in relation to crafting and knowing how it can be a challenge to get bhs to fix stuff for us at times... I don't see a rework for etching as something possible.

    Lost of things were said in topic. But still i have a question.

    here is what.
    Etch 3 is luxury a really posh one, the only reason one wants etch 3 is to put it on current VM weapon (then gloves, then rest).

    You guys don't wanna put etch 3 on Strfall now, do you? Cos that would be a huge waste.

    So you are ready to spend 1.5-2.5M on Imperator weapon only and whining here about miserable 200k? :p

    I made my wep first week of patch. The rest came later.

    I have full vm7 already all I'm missing is etching 3's for pvp. I farmed every material myself, I'm level 4 p2w and been playing for 4 years now. When you are endgame for PvP or max min PvE to compete with MANY other players, you need those stats to compare to them.
