A vender near each raid would then offer to sell you rare essence crafting shards for 625 raid runes and threads of fate.

Right now, the Mind and Matter ring set with both rings enchanted by the curse of major masterworks reigns supreme and the Legendary Gem of Many Facets is starting to be used a lot less due to lacking the augment slots of modern trinkets, this could change that!

It's been a long time since element consolidation was needed in gear, and now with the DC scaling changes, there are also multiple spell schools of spells in one channel. The caster gear is ridiculously bloated.

That kind of multiple bonus to various elements should be the norm, not the exception. Equipping a caster is a nightmare. And to achieve 1/3 effectiveness of a martial.

It's mainly for the fact that artificers have not been given the same treatment as other casters, the only effect currently in the game where repair spellpower is combined with anything at all is Memory of Animated Objects in which simply combines repair spell power with its spell crit damage and crit chance..... however if I hope to ask for something for myself, asking for an equivalent for others is a reasonable ask. Self-forged and warforged have been neglected for a long time, the last item with the Greater Auto-repair effect came out in the Feywild expansion and while fleshies got their healer's bounty augment and undead players got their greater boon of undeath augment, self-forged and warforged never got their greater auto-repair augment or their repair systems augment..... but they sure are loving to put out lots of items with strength of purpose on them..... I can ask for equality, or I can sneak an equalizer into an ask catering to everyone. Meanwhile undead players and fleshy players have multiple different options for spellpower sets that boost multiple different spellpowers at once while including the one they use for healing along side the one they use for their weapon imbue, and even more if they play as a Tiefling in which get penalties for their intelligence.

No, we don't have it. The use of this type of combined spellpower/lore is very sporadic, incredibly rare in current loot (practically nonexistent), and rarely in decent slots. Often, they're used in weapons that can't be augmented with raid debuffs. Or in armors, losing the exceptional lore/spellpower. This isn't an artificer problem. It's a problem with all caster gear. And if this were to become the norm, as it should be because gearing a caster is a nightmare and generalist casters are being killed off, artificers would benefit as well.

I repeat, it's a problem for *all* casters. It's a problem of *poor design* of caster gear, where separations have been prioritized to an absurd degree, to the point that gear is collapsing under its own bloat.

Give us with consolidation of elements and schools, yes. Not just in raid items, not just in trinkets or rings, not just essence crafting. Make it the *norm*. Because it's needed.

I like this, but not tied to raids. For a crafting system in a video game to NOT have the possibility to create every single enchantment that exists is crazy to me, like you cannot even craft Ghostly or Dusk or Lesser Displacement onto CC gear - let alone these.

These should be standard recipes but also standard affixes. I swear that whoever designs the caster gear does it thinking that a Sorc playing a single element or a FVS nuker are the only two casters out there. Makes gearing anything with versatility really dumb.
