A crafting hard truth.

You have 500 div and a couple of purple omens. "oh boy, it's exciting to see what I can make of this". It's what we all think, but after learning to craft and spending 50k divines making full-t1 items and testing crafting, you are delusional if you think you don't need at least 80-100 whittlings/omen of lights to put a desired item into a better place. If you think you are going to "strike it lucky" with 1 or 2 omens then you're always going to feel terrible when you walk away empty-handed. This simple notion has probably turned 95-99% off of crafting so I hope GGG are reading this and consider how to correct it.
