Pff Kenero, aren't you exaggerating a bit here? Blacksmithing is on a completely different level than those 2 skills.
Compared to Blacksmithing we have some sort of "control" over the materials and how to obtain them.
Which is unlike hunting a whole day for 40 Leathers which barely gave any training.

I feel the same too. Not to mention Engineering/Craft doesn't have the
2 ranks lower manual doesn't give skill exp bullcrap that BS and Tailoring has so you can effectively just make low easy things like bolts for even some exp rather than 0 exp for Blacksmith when you make an easy Short Sword. IMO Engineering/Craft is 5x easier than Blacksmithing even without Talent Bonus.
Also a tip for Engineering/Crafting, if a requirement says to make a tool it may not be worth it even though it gives more EXP, for instance Rank E engineering Build a Tool (Engineering Hammer Hillwen x2 Tin x1) gives 1 EXP per success. It seems like you should finish this requirement first because it gives more exp than Build a Part (Hexagon Nut/Bolt Hillwen Ore x1) which gives .8 exp per success but then if you look at Engineering Hammer's x2 Hillwen requirement that's like 10 Hillwen Ores used for 1 EXP whereas you could have made 10 Hexagon Bolts/Nuts for 8 exp.
Also, shouldn't these threads be moved to Mabinogi Talk/Help now since it isn't foreign anymore?
