Default No Weapon Variety

Why is it every weapon crafter sells exactly the same skinned weapons as each other? its always barrel hammer, machete, lion shield. Why cant they mix it up a bit by making different crafters have different skins. That way more people might use the crafters, because they wont get the same old skin as everyone else.

They could toss in a lot of the lower level weapons that disappear as soon as you start hitting lvl20 enemies.

crafter and collector weapons are about functionality, not vanity or variety.

Weapon crafters are for getting good stats, not showing off.

Hey guys... don't pop his bubble just yet. What he's saying isn't a totally worthless idea.

What if instead of every crafter making the exact same weapon with the exact same skin, they make weapons with skins tied to the region the crafter is located in? Luxon crafters makes Luxon-skinned weapons which are different from Kurzick crafters. Vabbi crafters makes Vabbian-skinned weapons, which are different from Istani crafters. Krytan crafters make... well, you get the idea.

We have armor crafters that make armor based on region (to a certain extent anyways), so why not weapon crafters as well? You can find different stats (15^50, +15 in a Stance, +30 HP, of Whatever etc.) in different areas, so why not the skins too?



(Man I hope I made sense... stayed up all night again doing Tombs runs)

Yeah, I see the reason for putting boring skins (makes getting cool ones a challenge) Although it would be nice if there were a tiny bit more veriety.

I like the idea that collectors and crafters carry different skins for their weapons.

This can only improve the game.
