Welcome Land Drifters!
The crafting power formula has been revisited with the goal of making mastery levels and tools feel more rewarding and easier to understand.
Formula changes
Before, mastery levels helped you, but it was minor and multiplicative. It has been separated and has become additive but with much larger values and to make it easier to understand.
Each mastery level will grant you an extra damage. So at level 50, you would do a base of 10 damage + 50 extra damage due to your mastery level.
Tools now add a larger amount of additive damage. A copper saw would add +1 damage, and iron +2, mithril +3, etc.
Someone new to the game with no tools would quickly see their base damage quickly grow, while a veteran would see some bigger numbers with all their tools and levels combined. Your base power and tools will still multiply with your rift talents.
Critical Strikes
When you click and hold or just get lucky, you would hit much harder with your critical strikes in crafting. In gathering, it clicks many times per second, but crafting only increases the speed slightly in comparison. To better bring crafting active gameplay up to par especially for beginners, critical strikes in crafting do 4x the damage, up from 2x.
More Inventory
12 new inventory slots have been added to the market, 8 of them are bought with gold, the last 4 are with crystals.
Build 0.3.31
12 more inventory spaces from the market (8 gold, 4 crystal)
Crafting Damage formula reworked, mastery level now gives +1 damage per level.
Crafting tools now give +1 damage for each iteration
Critical strikes in crafting now do 4x damage, up from 2x, making active gameplay more rewarding similar to gathering. This should help with early gameplay.
Some market UI changes.
