I just hit 125 in 2h Slashing, which means I need new equipment. But saddened by the fact that every crafter I ask to make me armor replies with one of the two replies........1. Sorry I craft in guild only. 2. Bring me the mats and I will make it for you. I'm sorry but if my foraging was that high I'm sure I could handle the grind to Level my Armor craft. Anywho.....I'm looking to buy q150 Supreme Black Heavy Armor. If you can help me please /tell Zenith in game or just leave a post here......Thank you.

the difficulty probably comes from your request for supreme.. it is very difficult to get enough mats for a full suit.. pretty much impossible for all but the greatest of ninja harvesters.. ask for choice or excellent and you will probably have more luck.. can get those without dealing with the PR in its current state.

Very simple, you just ask too much:
- Supreme armor
- Black armor
Join a guild, ask pr harvesters to harvest you black materials.

Even when I asked for just normal q150 armor no matter color or quality I recieve the same exact answers. I am in a guild which none of the members are high enough to craft this. When crafters craft guild-only it does one of a few things. 1.) Forces you to join their guild. 2.) Wear q80 armor all the way to level 200+ and/or 3.) Pay ungodly amounts of dapper when they HAPPEN to put on vendor. Thanks anyways for your input.

Or nathan, it forces you to group with your harvestors, protect them while there harvesting and gaining harvest levels, and then get your guild crafters up to speed.
I see your delima, but, even with the amount of time I personally put into crafting for my guild, and harvesting, I am only pullling between 500 and 700 mats a night, of which, I can only maybe, make 5 full heavy suites of q70 armor before I run out of one of my mats, thats IF there all successful.
I am sure this is also the case for a crafter that can do q150.
Grinding crafting levels is not easy, takes 5 to 7 hours to get enough mats to grind 3 or 4 levels, if were lucky on our successes.

I also harvest and craft light armor.....I DO understand where you're coming from but the only people we can get into our guild are the noobs. It's hard to get veterans of the game to change guilds lol, not like I would so I dont blame them. I do understand that its hard to level. But hey, whats the harm done in using one of the crafted sets they used to level themself and sell that for a little bit of dapper. No matter what happens leveling melee will always be quicker than craft so I can understand that crafters will probably always be behind. But, crafters always (in most often cases) have to be guild only or they say bring me the mats. In the first post I said, "If my foraging was that high I would go through the grind of leveling my heavy armor craft." I do also understand that foraging isnt the only means of getting mats. You can buy mats or quarter mats. For these cases, there are also problems. The highest Mats I ever see on merchants are maybe basic or fine, and those are mainly quartered. The only "real" decent mats are harvested, and the harvesters usually horde them in their packers for personal use or guild only once again. Just looking for a little bit of help......I can't provide the mats, nor will I join your guild, but, if anyone can craft q150 heavy armor please send me a /tell Zenith in game with a price. Thank you!

Its a shame people wont craft for you because your not in there "elite" guild. If you can get to zori land I Can probably get you the armor you seek though deff not supreme Black, not with out it costing you an arm and a leg. You can also look for members of the Infinity guild and tell them Gondi sent you and you will be helped.

Well, since I know you have asked me several times and gotten both answer #1 & #2, I have to point out things you bring out in this thread for perspective.
You dont "NEED" new equipment, you "WANT" new equipment. You have heard repeatedly and appear to know yourself the time and effort required for harvesters and crafters working together to get the skills needed to make Q150 HA. Knowing all this you expect not only for someone to cut you a deal, you want SUPREME and BLACK.
What have you got to offer anyone outside your guild to warrant getting items of this quality, benefits and level ?
The lines have not been drawn in the sand yet where other guilds can see who might have common goals, in race or not. We know which guilds and players we can expect to see when we do things for Matis or the Karavan, we also know those who choose to sit out or do other things.
We also know that making a set of armor for one person means MULTIPLE /tells in game annoying us to no end with requests for more crafted items. This may be a good thing for those that RP themselves as craftsmen, which is few in this game as they made it such a grind.
Those that have taken the time to grind harvest and crafting to the levels needed to provide the gear you "NEED" are rolling in money. That is why you see the high prices so only those worthy are buying the gear and not just being one of the fashion queens that seem to flourish. We are working or behinds off to provide our guildmates with the best gear we can so they can complete our guild goals.
I hope I made some sense in why you may be having problems getting the armor you "NEED"...
Putting Supreme black HA Q150 on a level 125 warrior is like putting spinners on a Yugo anyhow...

Didn't I mention in one of my posts that I also asked for any color any quality other than basic? I'm also not asking for a deal, but seriously 1 or 2 or even 3 million dapper for a full suit of Heavy Armor??? That IS a bit much, also considering you're "rolling in the dough". Q150 armor on a level 125 is just having armor that you can grow into and not have to worry about going through the endless process of getting new armor once again. I'm sorry that I don't want to be a level 125 in q80 armor. And about the event for Kami and/or Karavan or being in the places need be...or whatever point you were trying to get at....I have tried to do everything in my time that I have on the game to participate in anything I can. But, then again, what much more can I do after only 3 weeks of being a char on Atys? I'm not a hard person to get along with, nor am I one to turn down help to a fellow player. It's just getting old looking for someone to help. But, then again we all want the best for ourselves and guild members. Shouldn't we be helping one enother....or should people who only join the guild of the higher level crafters, or have XXX amount of dapper who are "serious" buyers. Like I said, "I don't "need" it to be black nor supreme." Another thing is, if someone does craft something for me I try to keep it secret as possible, I can understand multiple /tells can be annoying. It really is a shame that I prefer to keep my character in shape and updated. I'll keep in mind that all armor that I "want", so to say, is NOT a "need", and that q80 armor is the best I will ever do. Thank you Doubletap and all the others who have helped me come to this conclusion.
