New Blacksmithing prices in last patch

Small Bricks of Ore sell back to NPC (indifferent with 110+ CHA) for LESS than it costs to make them from Small Pieces of Ore + Water. Used to be able to make a small profit to fund skilling for pre-master trivials that way.

This make smithing for the low levels MUCH harder now :x

What's next? Raising the cost of Rusty Weapons in Freeport?

They have always said you shouldnt be able to make a profit from purely vendor bought ingredients, sold to a vendor. They are just being consistant, finally.

:roll:

...and why the heck are you buying rusty weapons?

[Dunthor Warsmith]

If I remember right, you could buy endless supplies of rusty weapons, sharpen them ... for skillups, and I *think* a small profit.

Blame people using macros.

People could use a macro progam and make a **HUGE** profit doing that.

So they EVERY SINGLE tradeskill combine that can have all components bought at NPC's and then sold back have to be changed to NOT make a profit.

And yes everyone is being punished for the few, but those few are ruining the game... and they do ban them when they are caught...
