As you will notice, 95% of all crafting HOFs come from Explosive Projectile crafting. You buy Nanocubes from the TT terminal, you get an EP BP and away you go hoping for a big HOF.
If you are lucky enough to own a IV BP then those 20Ped clicks increase your chances. Now, where MindArk has excelled is in drawing in players who just want to deposit say $500 for Nanocubes click their EP BP IV, while doing other things afk. Nothing wrong with this, if that is your thing but the effects on everything else is huge.
The lure of the big EP HOF has dramatically stunted the crafting of anything else bar mining amps. Hunters are now selling their loots closer and closer to 100% MV and miners are TTing most of their stuff that no longer has any MV.
So why doesn't MindArk want us to craft anything but explosive projectiles? Its not like that many people use rocket launchers anyway. Crafting BLP or Laser ammo would have made more sense.
But if miners and hunters are getting frustrated and TTing their materials and crafters cant get what they need to craft we are heading to a problem. We all have noticed the crafting success rate has dropped to 23-25% recently with no explanation. It used to be 34-37%. Something big has changed. I wonder if the Explosive Projectile HOFs are draining too much PED from the loot pool.
I think MindArk needs to adjust the ingredients list for Explosive projectiles to include some other ingredients or rename the game, Projectile Universe, craft Explosive Projectiles for fun To be honest, MindArk needs to stop the Explosive Projectiles crafting immediately until it can be balanced correctly.
Keep discussion civil, so maybe a MindArk official will address this issue.
