I am armorsmith miner and i am continues in front of quests asking me to craft leather armors, belts etc. But since now i have not saw once to craft something metal like chainshirt. Until now i was ignoring quests asking for leather stuff. When i start tier 2 story lines i was asked once more to craft leather, since i was want to continue the quests i was forced to gather skins and give them to a tanner in my guild to transform them to leather, then i was able to craft the quest requirements. Now i am not able to gather skins(something good in my opinion).
BUT the programmers now should do some change in quests for armorsmiths (there are miners too not only tanners).
AND to by leather (light) from auction is 500+ gold per piece when i was needed 12 and the quest reward was 400 gold...so i was thinking what the hell i will not be practical able to continue story line if i face the same problem...
