I'm getting extremly fustrated, and confused with this whole crafting thing. I'm a level 12 Adv/ 10 Crafter. I've been trying to grind out to raise my crafter level, but it is really getting boring and unrewarding. I raise a level and don't really see much benefit. I have to figure out what formulas and Tech's I can use, so I have to search the Consigner (which is a challenge all its own). The dragon trainer would sell them, but I don't have the silly tokens to buy them, and the trainer won't give me any more quests to get more tokens (great system there let me tell ya).

Then there is my skill numbers. Some of my skills are at around 85, some are 93. I assumed skills would go up when you leveled up, do they go up with use? This didn't make sense since the skill at 85 is the one I use the most (smelting).

If anyone has any advice to make this a bit less fustrating it would be greatly appreciated.
