Crafter Signatures:  Add a "Crafted by <name>" line to rare and heroic player-made equipment.

 

Item Inscriptions: A limited (40 characters?) area for a message to be inscribed on rare and heroic player-made equipment.  Possibly requires a "chisel" item to be bought for gold or EP in the Shop.

 

Player Inspection: Added to the right-click menu is an option to inspect selected player.  This would bring up the equipment half of character panel for the selected player.  Mousing-over their equipment would display any socketed gems, Crafter Signatures, or Item Inscriptions.

Haha. Lots of great ideas coming forward!  I have a weapons shop, so would be very interested in adding that I  made it, and inscribing weapon with what the buyer wishes.

good idea and maybe let the player name the item as well but then some players get a little creative with names.

Added "Player Inspections" as otherwise no one but the item owner would be able to see the crafter signature and inscription.

I like the idea of  being able to check out other players equipment and the crafting signature. I'm not sure if the inscription is necessary, but I like all of the ideas +1 Loaf

The possibilities of item names are endless. In other MMO's I loved walking about and getting a random message saying"Hey, I'm using swords you made" Makes me smile especially if I'm not the one that sold it to them.

With the recent update Crafter Signatures and Item Inscriptions would now be visible to more than just the owner.  As a weaponsmith, these are two features that would take crafting to the next level and further retain my interest.

 

I suppose they could both be considered premium features and require purchases in the cash shop.  As the crafter I could rationalize paying for a walking advertisement.

 

Item Inscriptions would likely expand the gifting market.  Currently, it is a very rare occurance when I am approached to craft a weapon that is to be given as a gift.

 

These definitely aren't gamebreaking issues or anything, but would certainly improve upon an already enjoyable crafting system.
