ok, so this thread or the ideas in it are quite possibly not new whatsoever, it’s just that while my avatar sleeps ( as in the hours i’m at work or asleep IRL ) my mind tends to drift back to the game ( should have a warning lable… “This game can be addictive”.. ) and i came up with a few ideas for new things we could craft in future releases..
Energy Cells: using metals and crystals you could make energy cells.. different metals or gels and things for different sizes… either sold back to tt or other players…
BLP Ammo: using binary liquid and metals to make BLP rounds..
different metals and/or crystals etc to make different ammo types..
armour piercing for big beasties, EMP for bots.. and so on.. different types only available from crafters.. only basic from TT..
Enhancing weapons.. put in a basic axe, and some other materials and get a hardened axe back etc…
please feel free to laugh at my ideas or add to them if you see fit..

I like both of these ideas.
Ammo should be more readily available - even as loot.
The idea of enhancing weapons in the way you suggest seems quite a logic step to me.
eg: adding iron to an axe blade to enhance its durability, adding leather to the handle for extra grip = more chance of hitting etc
edit: While on this subject. If daytime/nighttime ever comes there could be a whole new market for nightvision scopes etc.

We use to get ammo in loot.
I think ammo will be craftable or new forms of it will come in some form because there is a section in the auction for it.

both of these are great ideas. i have seen the idea of crafting ammo discussed before, but upgrading weapons is perhaps a new one. at least in the way you are thinking.
there is another thread somewhere around here that discusses using the basic mechanical, metal, and electronic items in weapon construction. or, rather, make those parts wear out and not be able to be repaired so that hunters would have to purchase new “basic relays” from crafters.
I think maybe they should come up with something u can craft that requires the use of crafting resedue I mean it has a TT value so instead of everybody feeding it to TT maybe make it usefull ( :rolleyes: now that I think about it I just started crafting and maybe there is a use for it already and I have been missing out :banghead: )
I like thsoe ideas very much MA are saying they are going to maek it so crafters can repair weapons maby that will be a start to enchancing crafter abiltys. EMP bulets have we been playing Deus Ex Invisble War
How about the ability to customise/personalise crafted weapons.
A customised would be like a imp/mod/adj looted item execpt its only for crafted items. The crafter could either create one in a hof when crafting or be able to attempt to do it at a later date. Of course these would sell for more than standard items.
For personalised you are able to take any of your items, looted or crafted and tweak it cheaply to your wishes, like changing the colour or adding a symbol to it. These weapons, as they are personalised, could not be sold unless they are retured to standard state.
