Crafting Bench When??

As the title says, when are we going to get a crafting bench similar to POE1? We want to have more control over the crafting outcome! Fewer items, bricks!

Can we get like 100000 bumps from players ?

The crafting bench:

– gives control
– reduces friction
– shortens progression time
– weakens drops and trade
– mostly helps “normal” players

By “normal” players I mean those who:

– play a few hours a day or every other day
– don’t optimize every single choice
– don’t rely on trading as their main progression tool
– don’t want/don’t have the time to repeat the same content, waiting for RNG
– want their character to work, not to break the game

While these are clearly beneficial to players, they also reduce the challenge and control that live-service ARPGs rely on for progression and trading dynamics.

Kindly people, do not stop bumping this post if you agree that this is needed in the game. Your bumping can help raise the devs' attention.
