Vanguard: Saga of Heroes Interview

Vanguard Crafters has conducted an interview with Sigil Games' Salim Grant, the designer in charge of the crafting system in Vanguard: Saga of Heroes. As you might have guessed, the topics are all about crafting:
Q: How long do you estimate it will be once the game goes live will it take for players to craft important "big" items? (ships, houses, guild halls, etc.) How about powerful gear?

A: You should be able to craft good gear throughout your career as we want you making real items when they are going to be useful and in order for them to be useful be useful they must be powerful enough that someone sees them as something they want.

Can't reveal when ship crafting would start atm, I would say wait until beta to find out.
