I got bamboozled (and super excited) when I saw that LOTRO crafting bonus weekend thinking it was for DDO. I'm hoping we get our own crafting bonus weekend here soon. Thanks for all that you do, SSG.

Our Cannith Crafting XP boost weekend is historically our least-appreciated bonus, and we haven't done it for a while. How much interest is out there for one soon?
Have fun, and don't forget to gather for buffs!

Every 2 months would be cooool
Just awestruck, whether it be a Dragon flying overhead Stormreach, that glowing character who just zoomed in'n'out of the Pub or that I can drink a Beholder under the table and best of all rescuing Damsels in distress.
Character. Alivef was 1 x heroic completionist now I need Alchemist (+I have few more heroic pl's) 1 x epic completionist, 1 iconic Shadar Kai x 3. Gnome+Drow x3 racial pl's.

That's a great one. But it also requires advanced notice to full take advantage as it requires building up a stash of +crit crafting boosters and crafting mats to be prepared to do mass crafting in one go. Originally Posted by Cordovan

Noone levels a crafter more than once, so that is not surprising. But I bet that for those that are levelling their crafter this is one of the most welcome weekend bonuses you can have. Originally Posted by Cordovan

How about making it like +10% success chance instead? That functionally gives an XP boost because you're succeeding on your crafting more often, but it also gives something for people who are already fully leveled, since you can craft high-level/expensive shards with less chance of losing Originally Posted by Cordovan

Definitely interested - trying to get to level 400 - about 60,000 essences ready to go. Any way to reduce the xp ransack on those ML31 and ML32 minimum level shards? I'm currently at level 365 or so but suspect I'll only get another maybe 10 levels before the xp ransacks to zero on those.... That still will leave me very limited in what I can craft for folks.

I have been hoarding essences waiting for one. Nearly 100k saved up so hopefully can go from 340-400 on that with the weekend. Originally Posted by Cordovan

Why not?
Why not just include this bonus with another weekly bonus? Originally Posted by Cordovan

Definitly looking for the next crafting weekend.... I didnt manipulate the system for my first 150 or so levels so I'm about tapped out trying to get to 400 now... Not sure how I'm going to get there with ransack never reseting.

That is my thought too. Combine a Crafting Bonus Weekend with another weekend bonus. Originally Posted by Xugx_quetoxi

I'm defo interested in a a crafting bonus weekend, but i think this post is a great idea, combining 2 different bonuses. That way it does not effect the people who are already at cap with the crafting. Originally Posted by Xugx_quetoxi

the bags up or clicking on the items that reward them. I'm always hunting down the next chest in the quest lol

It would be nice to have each possible bonus to appear at least once in a while. Even those least appreciated by many might be appreciated by few. Originally Posted by Cordovan

I have been waiting for it for a long tim so... mucho interest from me Originally Posted by Cordovan
I got the mats, i got the pots, i got the boosters... also got a long list of items to craft.
It's reasonable that it should happen much less often than the other bonuses, but once in a while it can help a lot.
