We DON'T need more Lumps!

[Maestro]

That's a part of the game and a really nice way to earn money.

Yes it is. And it would not change.

And where do you see any opportunity if you assign a price to every mat ? Who will buy that "rare" and expensive water if you can just buy 3 common WoG and change it to a Water.

hmm 3 would of glasirs (30k each) + 2 tickets (30k) = 1 water
Why would you ever do something crazy like this? spend 120k  just to have 1 water that you can buy for 70k from AH?  :o
I dont see anything wrong with that kind of trade?
If you would alow change like above:
  would Glasirs be change in price to lower? No.
  would water change in price to lower/higer? No.

So what, some people here are playing for 2 years now. They need some challenge. That's exactly my point, you want an easy game and an end game gear within a month or two. I'm working on my royal scale set for 10 months now, and I'm not even mad. What if it was possible to craft it within a month ? It'd just ruin the fun imo.

If you are a screw and dont want to pay more for copper fetish, thats only your foult 
I see other ppl managed to craft brass helmet while you were waiting for lowest possible price  ;D
