"The-Ghost posted 12 days ago 0 This is absolute BS that the only job in this game smithing has a negative effect on the server. None of the other jobs that you can do seem to have this effect on the server with their tailings.

The devs need to come up with an approved container that smiths can put their tailings in and so that they do NOT pollute the environment.

It is extremely unfair the way it is right now and punishes anyone that wants to be a smith in this game.

I would say you should have two different containers you can make for tailings one made out of stone mortar pieces which are already being made by a stonesmith to make an approved container to put tailings in so that they do not pollute or another idea would be to do a 2nd one out of cement.

This is BS punishing the smiths making them dig caves and crap to bury their tailings you need to come up with a better solution than this to balance things out for smiths.

NO other professions seem to have that issues with their excess materials and this is absolutely wrong to punish a person in this game for wanting to be a smith.

Also tailings should NOT last forever and should have a "half life" and eventually just disappear!

The way things are right now are horrible for smiths. Smiting needs a LOT of work! ' Devs fix this immediately please!"

In a game like ECO, I would honestly expect more punishing elements to other professions, instead of removing the one we have.

That being said, I find the tailings are a bit over the top in terms of amount. No one I see uses the bloomery. It is more or less a waste of game-content from what I see. People build it, then build the anvil with it, and then go on to the blast furnace. No-one really bothers to much with it on our server. As a craft station, it is kind of "meh".
