Smithing orders

[Dabos37]

Aside from some exploits related to smithing, which are sadly still present in the game, what do you think about it. I am finding smithing orders too rewarding when you reach +175 smithing skill. You can complete some orders which give you 90-100k, which is a lot compared to what you have to pay for the best weapons in the market.

You can get mountain blade for 65K, which is a better weapon compared to the one you need to craft for getting 100k completing a two handed sword order.

Orders’ rewards are still too OP, and unlocking parts of some kind of weapons like 2h swords and 2handed axes is too easy (while unlocking other 1h weapon’s parts is a way harder).

Smithing is still too OP, and top gear is still too expensive, especially these new T6 armors (Khuzaits and Aserai new armors) which cost 450k or so, compared to other T6 similar armors which cost 250-280k (which is still a lot!).

The work orders feature is 'fine'; though basic and at least gives a purpose to it (not too exploitable) in game. But they should make the crafting cost more materials as you go up the tier given the pricing structure.
Makes it a worthwhile purpose to try and accumulate the best materials, and a need to secure it in a stash vs in party; and reason to defend a place as best you can for said stash.
