Easier skill gain means a worse economy. People become self dependent and that basically eliminates all trading of craftable items. Even if resource gathering was harder, that only means people will be trading resources for the most part.
I know some of you don't really care about the shard having a stable economy but every time skills are made easier those who are here that wish to craft take a beating.
Everything is about balance, especially on this shard considering the two totally different play environments our players come from. It doesn't matter if this game is 1 year old or 100, nor does it matter if we have all built 1 character or 1000, everything must be balanced and taken into account from all aspects of playing.
