  It's simply because they don't know how difficult it is.
  
  Many of them will soon realize how unrealistic it is and give up at like rank 9.

  
  
  rF~r9 is the piss easy part, r9+ is when the real fun begins.

  Exactly how difficult is it again?

  @Gensokyou
  I wear the noobiest talent title I have because it differentiates me from the rest. Others like to use grandmaster, master, expert, etc. I just use naive or green or something most people don't wear. I don't like to compare myself to others that much, either because in the end, whoever I'm comparing myself to will probably beat me at everything.

  These skills are like, 10 times harder then blacksmithing without an exp reforge, right? And they don't have talents, and don't have exp reforges, and even WITH exp reforges the current set of life skills are still grindy (albiet not unbearably so, by far).
  

  
  
  I don't have first hand experience, but on paper, these are the hardest skills in the game (barring Synthesis).

  I wouldn't say "hard", I would say they're incredibly tedious. Course I'm just judging from the skill requirements, it could go faster than we expect, but for the moment these skills do not get talent exp bonuses.

  10 times is just my guesstimate. Was wondering if anyone had figures.

  Some people prepared, some people have worker bees.
  
  
  
  Or some people are blowing smoke out of their asses.

  I'm going for at least rank 5 engineering so I can make my own gun.

  I'm not rich, don't have a guild to give me millions, and dont have hundreds of friends to be my slaves. So I doubt I'll make it past r9.

  1. They all look super tough.
  2. They only increase strength, intelligence, stamina, and mana. (Not dexterity)
  3. Gachapon will ruin the rewards for all but the early adopters, who will likely become super rich and powerful...but fuck 'em because my gear is almost perfect and i'm not buying their shit.
  
  I'll probably rank the skills for the stats which they provide but only up to around Rank 9.

  Not a lot of people were smart enough to buy DR pots when they first came out.
  
  He only recently ramped up his area of operations in skills.

  My questions are:
  How easy/hard is it to gather Hillwen Ores/Shyllien Crystals? Also does the partner bonus work with Rare Mineralogy/Shyllien Ecology? Because if gathering the mats for Magic Craft/Hillwen Engineering (which is mainly based off of Hillwen Ores/Shyllien Crystals) is easier than hunting for Fine/Finest Leathers for Blacksmithing then I'll be able to handle it. IMO life skills that require gathering (e.g. Weaving, Refining, Carpentry) is much easier than the ones that require materials from drops (e.g. Blacksmithing and Tailoring for Leathers/Straps which are generally found from hunting mobs)

  I'm sure it's the same as getting iron for blacksmithing.
