pretty nice bracers, still missin some crit and vit and finally i did gloves... bracers about 20-30tries, gloves like 150, still crafting them to get better pieces
i definally want better gloves and i need to improve my shoulders for more allres/vit
Aside from the new crafting recipes, though, I think we should also put some ample spotlight onto the fact that drop rates for ALL crafting recipes that already exist in the game were increased by 400%. Since the patch, I've picked up a ton of additional crafting recipes that do NOT create account bound items, and since people were having luck with crafting the new Archon armors and amulets lately, last night, I tried crafting maybe five or six 1h Maces for my Monk, who could use either some variety in weapons, or just a new main hand.
Some of them were okay, this was probably the best one I got out of only six tries.
759.2 DPS
1.2 Attacks per second
233-508 Arcane Damage
15% Damage
132 Strength
218 Dexterity
156 Intelligence
2.9% Life Steal
Obviously, not epic by any stretch, but not terrible for only six shots at it. Most people craft maybe 20-30 things before they get something incredible.
I have it on my Monk right now, which is what I was shooting for, an off-hand weapon with some Life Steal. But even something like this, that's not epic and pretty easy to upgrade, gives me some hope that better stuff could occur via crafting.
I could use some time to recoup some costs and restore some of my materials, but once I have closer to 10 million gold (around 7.3 million right now), I'll try it out some more.
You really loves thos number 9 Amazing amu! 125 crafted amulets so far got a slight upgrade for my CMWW build with 9.5Crit 950 loh 250 int... but not even close what i WANT

Nomanis sane whodoesnot knowhow to beinsaneonproperoccasions.
I just spent 10 million on gloves and shoulders and only got slight upgrades to both... sign... and my gear wasn't that good. A pair of gloves that might go for 1m and some average vile wards.
My best one after exactly 800 crafts in one session (mind you, I have yet to craft a single trifecta)
I should add that originally I was searching an upgrade for my barb, after 750 crafts where I got ONLY crap, I switched to DEX amulets, within the first 5 amulets I got that one and gave it to my monk which wasn't wearing any gear at that time, what a waste.
My crafts so far. Got the shoulders oafter 15 crafts, bracers after 58 crafts and the amulet is the best I've got after 250 crafts or so. I'll still craft, since all of these can be upgraded. But so far I'm a happy crafter

(@post below: I figured this out *after* I answered - I just forgot that max str is always 300 on shoulders)

Monk here; Goves, Bracers, Ammy and Shoulders on above profile
Gloves were first ever craft, I have since gotten a trifecta set of gloves, but lack vit or all resist.
Ammy was after maybe 10 crafts, made ~150 since and gotten no where close to it yet.
Shoulders did replace my vile wards, but still have plenty of room for improvement.
Got the double resist set of bracers in 15 crafts or so, thought I'd stop there for a while :).
Edit: Added screen shots.
Anyway my first shoulder craft was:
293 int
85 vit
48 arcane resist
74 all resist
76 life/sec
7 pickup radius
As a WD, i was very happy with that.

I main a wizard, but I crafted some for my tempest rush essence farming monk.
