Crafting Is Broken.

Agree with almost everything said here. Another weird thing is that some legendary crafted weapons actually cost less to build than a single upgrade of an epic one. I really can't see how no-one noticed these during testing.

Typical "testing" during rush/crunch doesn't include fun, or little details, power gaming and so on. Just critical path and actual crashes.

And even with that like Bethesda never fixed many Skyrim bugs over many Skyrim and then Skyrim DLC then Skyrim remasters versions. Pretty much every Bethesda game has an unofficial fixpack mod due to this.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels they've discovered the most pointless thing in the game, though I'd probably have titled the thread:

Crafting is broken, but upgrading is broken AF.

Underwhelmed and disappointed would be an understatement. Hope someone at CDPR is watching this thread and they will do a redesign at some point.

Where are people getting epic or legendary clothing / gun mods? I always check around the stores and they have complete crap in them. Are better ones sold after reaching certain acts or levels? Can't find anything other than green or blue mods at level 27.

From crime area with skull symbols, mostly you will get spec to craft legendary/iconic weapons. That is the cheapest way compared with getting the legendary drop weapon and upgrade it as you level up.

As for armor you can check link below, huge credit to this person.
