Crafting is broken for level 1206 and 1209 sets, everything drops 'Uncrafted', even when Four Leaf activates. Other items are crafted properly.
Fixed.
Are you sure? 4-leafed Dairy Cow Tail Whip still shows up as Uncrafted, as do the other items. I also had a Bone Laced Ring drop today, shows up as Uncrafted too (which is unusual for dropped items, but does happen, so who knows).
Well, turns out it's not THAT bad later on... 150, 150, 200 (threshold for DBL 1260/AL 175 hunting), and then just 50 (maybe changed on the fly since I started hunting?)
Nope. I intended all of them to be at the numbers they are. Final 50 are coz he summoned them then and there.
When I saw that first quest, I was expecting MUCH worse... I was doing the overdue quests from 1151-1200 earlier today and 'The Burning Domain' one required 300, 200, 400 and 350 kills; 'Cleansing the Corruption' is 150, 100, 250, 150 and 250, so a bit better. There are a few more that require hundreds of kills at one level.
As you probably realize, almost everyone up here uses loyalty Doubler, which has to be disabled if you don't want to sub-level. Probably wouldn't be an issue if it was normally available, but it costs AT; when you have to disable it 3 times per content, you will get annoyed.

It'd be great if "kill X creatures" requirements were limited to 100-125 (mmmaybe 150), that's pretty much the perfect value; you could still use a higher Conserve pot and PLB guild pack, and not have to sub-level.
