Except that now getting 150k LP take a LONG time (not to mention all the skills to get there).
That aside, the 150k farming skill ain't even worth half of the LP. Just 1 extra seed and maybe a few more silk filaments. Tree planting chance doesn't matter shit because you can just keep making treepots until it you get what you want. Its simply not worth 150k LP with the content it provides right now.
Also no fucking farmer will get smithing, ever.

If you want to add crossover points, they shouldn't be the most expensive ones you can find.

Depends, if we are talking about crafter char, then after some time it will reach a point when there is nothing useful to spend LP on and those skills are the best way of progressing for them

Why? I always seemed to take all skills in Haven. This isn't Salem where you can specialise into a single industry branch. It's not hard to get stats and skills to perform all.

Why not treat the helmet as a perk for having those expensive skills? Of course we could discuss if maybe the helm should be somehow upgraded

So you guys want the 150k mining skill to unlock the druid helm instead or what is the problem here? The name of the skill and what it unlocks makes sense, I don't understand why it matters to you so much that it's related to farming. Ok, so it does stuff for farming and unlocks other things too. That makes it more worthwhile to get.

Also, how do you know it only unlocks the ability to craft the druid helm, you do know there are images for a cloak and staff as well, right? And a Dryad thing? Have you even bothered to test if you can do anything to them now or was it just buy the skill, come to forum, cry?

Here's a quote for you guys in case you missed it during the "Paving the Way" update when they added all those skills:

instead of QQ ask jorb to add something to it.

150k in nature for farming.

Let it give us 1 Constitution point every 5q or something.

150k isn't that expensive by mid game as quality starts rising. I like having high LP skills to aim for, and oh well you need a farmer with some smithing I really doubt your metal is that good quality that it'll be absurdly expensive.

What I get from this thread is that maybe the druid helm needs some buffs if it's gonna suck so much to craft. Who knows, I doubt anyone here even knows the stats it gives yet :P

Like, Druidic rites, unlock Druidic helm, I don't have a problem with the name. But for it to ever be a quality that will compare with a boar helmet, either the smith needs to buy all the skills for farming, which they'll then never use, or the farmers are going to buy up smithing instead of more farming. It's bad from a gameplay perspective, in order for a quality druid helm to be made, many lp that is much more useful elsewhere needs to be spent, or have it just not be made until everyone is rolling in 9 million curios
