Crafting

[than21]

I'm on newbie island and there something i noted with the crafting skills, like i have armor crafting 4, but it says my success rate with QL20 armor is 70%, Armor craft 3, says 82%, AC 2 is 85%, and AC 1 is 87%, so if i'm geting this right, i should use AC 1? But shouldn't you get better at makeing things the higher your level?

You get more XP the higher the Q but if you get a degraded item the XP is substantially less so its kind of balancing act.

XP return is better on using the simplest crafting you can get by with. If you try crafting q10 with crafting 1, 2, and 3, you will see a big difference in xp just by using the different skill sets.
