I did 2 self found playthroughs recently. One only in ultimate, and one in veteran+ultimate. On both of those I missed some low level blueprints.
Either make all item blueprints under 50 innate to the blacksmith, or limit Benevald to only low level item blueprints. Basically stuff that can’t drop at high levels.
See I just tried that and it sucks. I don’t wanna be in Veteran anymore.
All non-relics below level 50 should just be innate. If it’s not a faction bp, and it can’t drop in max level Ultimate, make it innate. Most people don’t play self found, they just have the blueprints forever, so they wouldn’t even notice a change.
