The only reason I even made this topic is because it is my niche, everything else about the game is the kind of game I like to play. It's just the timers are just too long. There needs to be a better balance between the time I am out having fun and the time it takes to make the things required to have fun. Games can be realistic but at the same time, the time it takes to create things doesn't need to be realistic as the reason most people play a game is to have fun. What is fun about it taking 4 hours to create 82 40ql arrows? Not to mention that finding your arrows in the grass is another time consuming event in itself as you don't want to waste any arrows as it takes forever to make a quiver full.

And please don't reply with "Buy your arrows then..." LOL

I am just giving the developers the main problem with this game in my eyes, because this is my biggest turn off to the game and will be the reason I look elsewhere for my entertainment. I have been playing MMORPG's since Neverwinter came out on AOL and everything since then pretty much. Just saying, I have a ton of experience playing games like this and I know what is NOT fun. I am not here to troll or rant, I just want them to know that I personally want to spend more time actually going out and using my bow than I do making the arrows to shoot out of my bow. If I end up looking for something else to play, they will know the main reason why I stopped subbing. And it's not JUST making arrows, it's pretty much the timer to make everything. Thanks.

It isn't just fletching, it's almost everything... creating healing covers, farming, crafting in general. I understand the game sticks with a close to reality feel, but the time it takes to do and make things isn't one good trait to be close to reality with. Not everyone has hours to make things and it is a huge turn-off in my opinion.

I am on an Epic server. I'm not really worried about faster skill gains, just faster timers. My skill in fletching is 37.

I am sure this isn't the first time this post has been made, but this is my first post so I would like my voice to be heard. I just spent over 4 hours making 2 quivers full of arrows. The time it takes to make things in this game is just ridiculous. I feel like I am working a second job and all I want to do is go out and have some fun... I really do like the game and what it represents, but basic flawed fundamentals are making this game mostly not enjoyable when it could be a lot of fun. Main recommendation is to lower the timers to no more than three seconds, if not 1 or 2 seconds. Skilling up is slow enough as it is and with the timers shortened to 1-3 seconds, it would make the game much more enjoyable. I already have a job but when I play, I feel like I am taking on a second job that I have to pay to work at. Seriously, please consider making the timers to create an item somewhere between 1 to 3 seconds so I can actually go out and hunt instead of creating what I need to hunt for my entire gaming time.
