You can raise skill on purely crafting, with only a tiny bit of killing money at the beginning to seed yourself with starter ingrediants. After that, it is self sustaining (and actually fairly profitable).

However, without adventuring and consequently encountering resource nodes in the wilderness to obtain raw materials, you will be reliant on other people for those raw materials to make -real- (non-work order) items. Either get some friends to collect for you, or buy them off of the brokers.

I think it would be near impossible to just level your crafter and not your adventure. There are many craft quests that send you far from your home area and if you don't go do some of these craft quests you cannot get the next tier of recipes.

I would love it if you could Only craft. However as stated, to advance in crafting you need to travel in areas where you are KOS. Seems as though someone said " Hey lets have a Crafting quest." To which the answer is " OK then lets have them kill 10 level 5 kobolds."

The harvesting part is also true. I do not mind some adventure skill so I can harvest my own mats, but it is possible to advance in crafting using mats you purchase.

I guess the dev thinking was that you can only craft but where you have to get to places that are dangerous you wither take a friend or hire help.
