Well, I'm just speaking as someone who didn't do enough writs between 1-20 and now I never have a bank of adventure xp bigger than about 500. I mostly RP, and don't really have time or a stable group to go on big monster runs or anything. I'm obviously not the best example though.
Enjoy the adventure mode cookie benefits then with your lack of grinding!

People were using L30 to gain crafting feats or dweomercrafting tiers, making themselves their end game gear, and losing those feats/tiers in order to take a more mechanically powerful choice.
Kind of tells you something though, doesn't it?
Locking the ability to basin skills on your gear behind a silly bottleneck and forcing people to harangue wizards endlessly to stoop over a basin was a pointless, annoying, and needless change.

Removing -losexp altogether when so many other elegant options were in plain sight was like taking a nuclear bomb to kill an irritating fly imo.

It's a shame that we lost -losexp over a number of bad apples, but here we are.
Thank you, because I really had no idea why it was disabled. Now that you mention the dweomecrafting, it all makes sense. You cant have both -losexp AND dweomecrafting scaling in feats/skills in the same game. Too open for abuse.

Also people were using it to swap around crafting skills willy nilly.
This too shall pass.

(I now have a DM Discord (I hope) It's DM GrumpyCat#7185 but please keep in mind I'm very busy IRL so I can't promise how quick I'll get back to you.)

Putting it on a long cooldown would mitigate a lot of that without nuking it completely from orbit.

Rather than taking the tool away, Perhaps we could had lvl dropped those who did such practise to lvl 1 :twisted:
