Discussing PoE2's Crafting System

PoE2's crafting system is weird to me because there is some depth to explore here, but it's just so expensive that most people will never get to really engage with the interesting bits. And although I enjoy planning out my crafting steps, the unfortunate result of this is that even well-rolled items in the wild that might seem enticing at a glance end up being very expensive to complete/fix because they weren't curated with specific mods that protect you from dangerous outcomes.
