New Chisel Recipe is Lame

yeah , i dont see how being able to get a bunch of hammers , is a bad thing ,

if i recall correctly people have been complaining (perhaps rightfully so) that map drop rates are ... not dependable to say the least,

then we have the knowledge that pretty much any below 69 map is pure rubbish and just takes up space anyway.

next we have chisels which their only function is quality yet they are only a little bit more common than alchemy orbs as drops.


the new recipe is a good thing A GOOD THING,

the limiter for it in all likelihood will probably be ones pool of 66 maps, so being able to spend 20 minutes and get 3 inventories of hammers wont really make chisels common since map drops equate roughly to an alchemy or fusing orb dropping (in terms of frequency).

the only thing id change with the recipe , the only thing at all, would be the inclusion of the higher tier versions of the hammer for consistency sake.


regardless , chisels should never have been the kind of currency one should need to hoard, so making them common , in any way is a a great thing .

plus you have to give ggg some credit for keeping it thematic .

I just saw a Driftwood Maul on the Normal Act 3 vendor on a clvl40 character. Does this mean you can get Stone Hammers off any vendor, albeit rarely?

Well of my 15 characters none had any beyond act 2 norm (I checked all vendors because I hadn't after 1.0.0 so I got a bunch of chroms/jewelers for my effort) so, probably as rare as a 5l showing up.

Well since you only have to run lvl20 areas or so I doubt that you can die there. I think Normal Fellshrine could be a nice place to get the hammers. But I agree the Rock Breaker should be allowed too, it looks completly identical.

The recipe sux, coz:
- Low level players wont even bother to pick hammers, not if they are new. Old players reroling chars often enough to support supply of low lvl chissels are minority. Most just want to play toons in endgame.
- high lvl parties wont give a f^^k about low lvl content. Takes too much time to get 20 hammers for 1 map.

Chris : ba da bum.....tss.

GGG adds more useless recipes to counter complains about "no crafting ingame".

Come on .. Even a retard would understand it's PR.

The quality has almost nothing to do with time.

Maybe this person is chiseling rare maps. Who knows.

feedback after 5 days. i played every day several hours and i did get 2 hammers at a1n from the vendor. no hammers in map or i did miss them. i did find some hammers, but then they were the wrong ones. :D

with the new chisel receipe i thought the prices for chisel will decrease...but they are more expensive now or i had luck before :D i dont get any chisels for 40:1 in standard leaque.

maybe it is possible to add more 1h hammers for the receipe? so the receipe is useless for every map player, even exchange prices didn´t changed yet.

I think this is a recipe for new players/characters, to allow them sell hammers for reasonable price (maybe 2hammer=1 alc, or 5 hammer=1chaos).

It is also very difficult to notice white hammer, even if they should drop on maps sometimes.
