I can't play the game, so I can only ask. If I want to max out an advanced skill and say become a master barding crafter, or a master at making buildings, or a master or making light armor - how long would it take me if I played 60ish hours/week? 2 months? 6 months? 2 years?
I know it's hard to give an exact answer but i'm just trying to get a ballpark feel for the crafting endgame and how easy it is to go from brand new player -> renowned crafter of 1 particular item type. Us hard core crafting types like to have name brand notoriety and prefer long times needed to become a master. =)
