Is anyone doing the stress testing today? How's it all going?
Can anyone post their thoughts on the trade skills, were they all fully available?
I tried the game for the first time today managed to log in almost instantly but I didn't get to touch trade skills though as I was too busy checking all the basic stuff out!

Stress test was good, they extended it by a couple of hours I was getting familiar with the game too, I did find a bunch of Skill Masters or whatever at ''The Grove'' around the Sylvari area. I guess every race has these. Didn't really progress further than that with them though.
Interesting to see the huge spike in professions when it came to Jewelcrafting - wondering if any of you guys could explain why? It's just a more profitable skill?
I havent played it for a while, but i'd say its just less of a "plain" profession - Cooking isnt exactly and exciting thing to do, and the rest are all armour/weapon crafting, which most people plan to get from drops etc, from experience the best gear always drops from end-game bosses etc.
Sorta like Ench/JC in wow - i could always get that cool new staff from a boss, but i could only get +craptonofspellpower from a player with Enchanting, i imagine alot of people see Jewelcrafting similarl.
Also 5/11 gear slots are accesories, which can be made by Jewelcrafters.
Despite how monumentally painful getting started in armoursmithing was, things are moving along pretty well. I think the crafting system could definitely use some tweaking, but having so much fun right now that I don't really mind.
