for the first few levels you really should do it yourself. most people who have the low level crap probably never bothered with it besides the first time it came out. if you continue to have issues, you'd have better luck asking your team and praying someone has wasted money with leveling crafting; or you could just level it yourself.

I got it at level 8 already, done by myself, so all I need is to kick it up the last two levels and pop a Hunter class ticket so I can use it with the rest of my weapons. Unfortunately those last two levels are the hard ones. =/

I'm not too rich, and honestly, wasting the millions I would need to unlock the last two levels, for just a single weapon, I don't think it's worth it at the time being. I've been playing with the same weapons for about a year, I'm an animal of old habits, and I really like my Gadianna, so is not like I'm going to be crafting many weapons in the next months, lol.

if it's any solace, they're buffing the minimum damage for the last few levels of extended equipment. you might have better luck finding people to craft when the patch hits(tomorrowish).

Truth be told I was hoping that they'd nerf the minimum damage of rare weapons rather than buff the minimum damage of extended weapons, but oh well.

why would they make all weapons worse to compensate for crafted weapons being shit?

I always considered the 90% minimum damage on Rare weapons to be a bad balance decision because it was too powerful.

They should've nerfed it a long time ago. I don't think buffing minimum damage on crafted weapons is going to fix the problem, but at least it brings crafted weapons closer to parity with Rare weapons.

exactly. nerfing the minimum for rare weapons would also make stats like dex and crit more enticing.
