[sick sapphire]

Hey can some one tell me where i get the Nightreaver Greatsword recipe?

[wide portal]

World drop from 20+ mobs, best to farm humanoids for recipes.
Nightreaver is jundark but the greatsword with power is crafted with anvils mats so it's either jundark or anvils. Not sure but I would assume anvils

My assumption is that the name of the greatsword should have been pyrebrand and it's a mistake. Because rn there's 2 physical nightreaver greatswords

[hearty vector]

Trying to figure this out as well, wiki says drops from tons of mobs lol

[sick sapphire]

witch spot in anvils should i go? i just know the Timbercatch spot and all i got so far is deepweld stuff

[sick sapphire]

yeah wiki says its everywhere xD

[wide portal]

That's the place

I've dropped pyrebrand recipes there, elixir recipes, food recipes

They are not common drops by any means

Grind is grind xD

[sick sapphire]

ok i will continue the grind and share when i get is xd

[wide portal]

Good luck

[main coral]

Any moonbell spots cause I cant find any and its annoying

[tropic gazelle]

Is there a crafting calculator that accurately depicts how quality will affect a craft rn?

[loud cloak]

Aocarmory

[tropic gazelle]

Dang this 1/2/3/4/5/6 system suuuuucks. Legendary materials are stupidly rare/expensive and now they hardly make a difference when shooting for heroic items

[south stirrup]

so i reached journeyman weaponsmithing, and how do i actually make money on crafting? i see a sword that is selling for 5 gold but the fees to craft it are 4 gold 75 silver, how am i supposed to make money as a weaponsmith

[final tendon]

how do people make some recipes that require chicken meat or butter in heroic quality? for example craftman's casserole?

[feral talon]

you farm the animal with animal husbandry/ use mats higher than common rarity

[final tendon]

but they sell it gray, to manage to have the final recipe in heroic, I guess lots of crafting quality + epic/legendary items?

[sinful bane]

Collect materials > ?????????? > profit 💰

Alternatively,

"Creative use of in-game mechanics" > create heroic+ radiant > profit 🤑

[south stirrup]

im under level 20 so im hella poor and dont have access to good tools😢

[blazing ruin]

Supply a demand

[hazy bloom]

First you need the right recipes and second the right quality. Common stuff stops selling because the market gets more mature. Which is a problem for new crafters and thats why you see people seeling with that little margin. Better something than nothing. Your nr. 1 prio should be buying or farming recipes people look for and you should promote your services in trade or other channels because you can avoid the tax.

[last marsh]

hi, someone know the name of the sickle journeymen with herbal quality ?

[tropic gazelle]

Are processing drink buffs like https://ashescodex.com/db/item/Consumable_Drink_MoltenMetalMaibock obtainable in-game? Or just placeholders

[heady sandal]

Are we supposed to get salmon in the anvils?

[atomic mural]

Starts appearing in quantity at JM. Frosty at Novice. Kings Coin at App. Slightly different system than Riverlands.

[austere whale]

ok plz lmk

[heady sandal]

Yea I've been getting them for a while but assumed it was a bug since it only has riverlands tag...

[junior blade]

does someone know if veilsand or wraithskin recipes are in the game right now?

[near sandal]

what''s a good quality rating of an armorsmith crafting with elixir + food buff? is 1150 good..?

[fierce pecan]

whats a good 1h tank weapon for adept at this time?

[radiant ingot]

Sword

[noble widget]

Is it still true you need to kill caster mobs to get cloth recipes?

[pale pine]

What do you need moonbell for? I can’t find any use for it ingame

[bright salmon]

When I want to craft Rosarium armor, do I need to be master armorsmith or does the town have to have a master armorsmithing workshop expansion I? What are the requirements both in crafting and what needs to be built in the town and do I need to be citizen to use it?

[dreamy spear]

I've got 822 quality in lumber milling and I cannot get uncommon from common guaranteed. Is this normal?

[flat spade]

Yes

[digital hinge]

According to ashes codex higher quality doesnt give any AE quality boost.

[near sandal]

man, I crafted epic engi tool belt earlier today, it has +135 quality currently, which is 0% quality according to ashes codex, but my crafter had 1300 when creating it

[digital hinge]

I was referring to the journeyman shirt

[near sandal]

ah ye, that's a bug

[digital hinge]

Not that higher qual doesnt give better stats. Its just that journeyman AE shirt doesnt give any qual stat

[near sandal]

im new sry, but why does my belt have 0% qual..?

[digital hinge]

Couldnt tell you why man

[near sandal]

The crafter's own Mining belt has same 'issue' (0% qual despite being crafted with +qual stuff), so either a bug ingame or ashes codex has incorrect info

[sacred chasm]

Hey Tailors ! What have you found to be the best item to get from Apprentice to Journeyman with ?

[worldly zealot]

Where do we get corrupted chili flakes recipe?

[dry pulsar]

Well I'm glad I don't have to worry bout being attacked constantly whenever I go there... At least... Not in my server.

[worldly zealot]

Personally, i did maybe 20-30 apprentice bags before i decided i didnt want to waste flax anymore and just did the rucksacks. Would do commissions to get crafting xp scroll and pop those as i did it

[peak fractal]

I may be misunderstanding but the shirt base has quality as the substat and it increase with quality (as usual)

[sacred chasm]

Yea the Bluebell thread makes bags an expensive option. You just fell back to the novice bags ? I haven't tried those but novice shirts are super slow. Commission scrolls definitely help.

[peak fractal]

What mats did you supply? All Epic or a mix?

[worldly zealot]

I fell back to the rucksacks, not the "novice" bags (in novice group i guess).. The bags use linen, rucks use coarse thread. IT was slow, but saved rss's

[near sandal]

all epic, and I saw that my crafter was using food/elixir bufs

[peak fractal]

Theoretically you should have got a 138 AE Qual with that not much better but some

[worldly zealot]

Is it possible they mixed in their own mats to keep some of your epic ones?

[near sandal]

but if mats weren't 100% epic then it wouldn't turn out epic..?

oh, because of +qual he might've been able to

I guess?

but i doubt thats the explanation though, since his own belt had same 'issue'

[peak fractal]

It could with their quality buffs

[near sandal]

do you guys have epic tool belts, and could u check if yours have quality to them?

[worldly zealot]

Yeah because he had some quality they could have used some heroic

[peak fractal]

When you say quality do you mean, like higher quality? Because yours has the 135 quality

[worldly zealot]

Even aoc armory (i know not all sims correct) shows epic rating getting 136 using 20 epic ingots and 10 heroic

[near sandal]

I mean the 0-100% grade quality to it, so the +AE quality on it would get boosted

[peak fractal]

yea gotcha

[near sandal]

if you guys have epic belts with same 0% qual issue

[peak fractal]

I have none, but i can check around

[near sandal]

if it's just me, then i probably got scammed a bit and I'll just have to temper it up, but curious to know

I'm new, so maybe I misunderstand, but crafting with +quality gear items (and elixir/food) does boost the quality% the item ends up with, right..?

or is +qual gear simply to allow for lower-grade materials..?

[worldly zealot]

I dont know what you mean by boost the quality % tbh.
What i do know is that using quality+ gear and food/elixirs will boost a craftable item higher in its range, this could mean using lower mats to still push to higher rarity. For example, if i use all epic mats with no quality on your belt it will be 135 AE quality rating. If i were to have 1000 quality rating myself AND use all epic mats, that same belt would be ~138 AE quality rating (hardly worth it), and if i had 2000 would boost belt to ~140 AE rating

This also means though that i could have 1000 rating and use 15 epic/15 heroic ingots and epic hide to make that same 135 epic belt

[near sandal]

right, so I understood it correctly, thanks for clarifying

[worldly zealot]

No problem, glad i could help.

[near sandal]

btw, I was referring to below 'quality'

[worldly zealot]

Ahh, ok, never looked at it like that. Just always looked at it as where in its "range" it would be. Sorry for my confusion

[digital hinge]

The thing is, all JM crafting shirts have more then triple of the listed amount at even common in ashes codex. But in game it shows it does nothing.

[woeful bronze]

That's the tempering system quality I believe

[near sandal]

its for both

crafting with +qual or tempering both raise the quality%

except for tool belts, it seems.. or my crafter scammed me (dunno yet)

[woeful bronze]

So what's your direct enquiry here cos the +qual you craft with and that quality stat are two different things

[near sandal]

if u scroll up a bit ull get the context, but basically i got a 0% grade belt back from crafting service

when it should've been higher

[woeful bronze]

The epic belt screenshot yes? And you used all epic items for input materials?

[near sandal]

ye

well, I gave the crafter all epic

the question is whether he used them or mixed them

[woeful bronze]

I would like to say crafters should be trusted but realistically there's no guarantee way to prove things weren't changed out by them or game is bugging so kinda in a crappy spot cos no way to prove either way

[near sandal]

yeah, I which is why I was curious if anyone else here had a tool belt with more than 0% grade

to see if it's just me or not

the crafter's own belt was 0% grade, and he clearly had +qual gear when crafting it

[woeful bronze]

That sounds more like game bug as crafter swapping mats to scree someone is one thing but to screw themself over would be silly

[near sandal]

agree

[peak fractal]

Yea thats been a thing for a while it doesnt show the substats in-game for some reason. Probably just a bug that needs squishing

[heavy crane]

Anyone know where to get the JM satchel 2 recipes. the greater quality bags.

[nocturne tapir]

Is it everyone's else experience that the only huntable mob that can be spawned from killing is a Grem? JM Hunter with 50GP worth of gear and running food, and unless i hang out in the newbie zone AEing Grems which gets old fast Hunting just sucks trying to outcompete bots chain running otters? I'm about to throw all my gear on the marketplace and see if there's a greater fool. At least with other gathers' you get to actually gather.

[near sandal]

daystrider leather will become more valuable soon, you also have easy raptors up at vhalgadim (or whatever the town is called), and there are several spots to farm otters

wolves are the only problem with respawn, as far as I can tell

and you can just also hunt for basilisks to sell to husbandry players

[elfin flint]

Hi guys just wanna ask, do you guys know how to gather more higher rarity easily??

[peak fractal]

There are quite a few things to hunt: Crocs, Scorpions, broodlings, daystriders, hippos, all in the desert. Raptors and iguanas in the tropics/jundark, ravens, hawks, the borks, otters, deer, wolves… etc etc - you’ve just gotta go to the right spots. The codex map is really good for this.

[nocturne tapir]

Yeah i use the codex map for all the static spawns. After a week the game is feeling like a running / riding simulator. 80 Percent of the time the statics aren't up. Meanwhile the miners and herbalists are chaining the gathering. Think i ran gather salad for an hour with 500 in quality gear so around 800 and came back with 1 green leather and a bunch of whites. Ran half Riverlands. I just not seeing the return on investment and time vs other things. They need to make high level areas have a much better chance of spawning something and add killed mobs a chance to spawn huntables beyond Grem. Sorry but this profession sucks. An added note, I've never seen a game where the most efficient endgame use of a profession is too genocide every mob in the newbie zone ad infintum. I've made the most blowing up Grems. It started to feel like the guy screwing in the same bolt on an assembly line on an eight hour shift. I was like wft am I doing? 🙂

[peak fractal]

Yea it definitely needs some work but I have good success the last two phases. Looking forward to them adding more depth to the system

[bright salmon]

When I want to craft Rosarium armor, do I need to be master armorsmith or does the town have to have a master armorsmithing workshop expansion I? What are the requirements both in crafting and what needs to be built in the town and do I need to be citizen to use it?

[woeful bronze]

Hunting rarity is broken and not broken at the same time, the code isn't inherently broken the formula is just in a dodgy way as a tree gives wood and rolls rarity but cos the hunting animals are 50/50 between carcasses and husbandry animals and then has roll rarity it effectively cuts the ability to stack rarity success it carcasses in half just by that one thing if varied outcome

[woeful bronze]

You can use bench in anytime it isn't required to have citizen ship,your artisan skill needs match the skill of the gear which adept rosarium is journeyman artisan level but the town must have the master upgrade for that artisan skill applied to the building in the town for you to be able craft the stuff. Hope that helps feel free ask more if further clarification is needed

[pastel tinsel]

wanted to try crafting an uncommon version of the silverglade shortbow, since it's damage should be higher than the common version. Spent a few hours collecting all of the green ingredients for it, and had to travel between Joeva and New Aela to put it all together(guild vault in Joeva, apprentice weaving station/lumber mill in NA). The artisan skills are split on 2 chars, hence the reason for travelling back and forth and putting items needed in guild storage. After all of this work, my uncommon version of the bow had 40 more damage, and +6 more to the stats...

[proud vapor]

Where to look for slagebraker pickaxe reciepie?

[loud cloak]

You wanna know the worst part? You could have made it uncommon with only common materials and 90s of food/elixir buffs to quality

[pastel tinsel]

lol. Lesson learned, I'll just farm glint and buy from someone else.

[loud cloak]

It's a lot cheaper to make your own stuff still

And there isn't any actual endgame loop so farming resources is one of the few reasons to play the game

[pastel tinsel]

yeah, but I literally gained minimal xp making the bow when I could have probably gained a level farming for the glint.

[loud cloak]

It's generally worth getting to at least lvl 20 before caring at all about gear so I respect that

The power spike is ridiculous

[pastel tinsel]

true, just wanted to get more damage due to levelling solo due to time constraints

[loud cloak]

I went from 16 to 19 cutting trees 😂

[pastel tinsel]

ouch

[noble widget]

is there a website with all these figures on and how they affect crafting quality?

[proud vapor]

Google crafting calc for Ashes of Creation - there are few

[blazing mesa]

I have 3 epic tide breakers in my bag rn

[hazy bloom]

Yeah why not, my main my bard is at lvl 22 for more than 2 weeks now. Im farming everything myself so i can craft rosethorn gear, which includes leveling other chars in char lvl and crafting. Cant be aresed to make the last 3 lvl right now because why would i? I have fun leveling and grinding 🙂

[loud cloak]

Honestly there is nothing at 25 to look forward to so have fun with the process while you can

[novel surge]

https://aocarmory.com/crafting-calculator

Believe this is the most functional one

[scarlet valve]

is stillgate necklace still the best way to level jewelering? or is there some better more efficent way

[woeful bronze]

necklace i believe is the the most effecient for getting to apprentice, for apprentice to journeyman im not whats best there

[scarlet valve]

okay thank you

[loud cloak]

If it's anything like other profs, the same thing you do from novice to apprentice is always the best

Pop that commisioners crafting exp scroll and shoot for the stars

[heavy crane]

Anyone know where to get the JM satchel 2 recipes. the greater quality bags.

[woeful bronze]

it will be at a textile mill once it has the needed upgrade to unlock the recipe at the vendor

[heavy crane]

They have jm bag 1. Is there an additional vendor for second set.

[woeful bronze]

it will be the same vendor its just an upgrade that towns mayor has do that enables higher recipe i believe

[arctic arrow]

hey guys. has anyone encountered a spoils doesnt work? I didnt receive any add res in an hour

[loud cloak]

I often get extra res even with 0 spoils

Not a miner though

[arctic arrow]

Stunned

[ionic charm]

@woeful bronze on shol we have GM tailor and the bags aren't there

[woeful bronze]

okay, other recipes follow that kinda a pattern so was informed guess, thank you for the info

[ionic charm]

Yeah i wish im a tailor and our mining and LJ bags are hot garbage rn lol

[silver warren]

Where do the journeymen enchanting charms drop?

[torn axle]

Is it possible to make decent gold by hunting? Im level 12 hunting so far (and i dont care about husbandry). I just like to gather huntable pets. But carcasses and wolfs/bears/scorpions (non mounts) doesnt really sell good so far on marketplaces.

Will it be easier to sell animals (non-mounts) when i unlock hunting 20 ?

[radiant ingot]

Hunters can potentially make a lot of gold but they need to really put in the time and effort beyond the beginning crappy stuff

[broken heron]

Tanning is in such a bad spot that selling the grem, raven, wolf carcasses is still decent money. Hunting just doesn’t hit the high cost legendary from the beginning crappy stuff

[dry pulsar]

So do I have to travel to a stage 3 node to farm? It's not a problem, but I'm wondering because there's farming stations at Bonfire and hammers rest. Yes, I'm in the anvils, not Riverlands. Ik this is already not the best place to farm, but I'm just trying to see if that's even in the game rn.

[main raft]

bugged qual stacking is back?

[sweet elk]

Has anyone worked out what the new caps are for xp from node buffs since the patch?

[novel surge]

Downside to big gathering runs is that I likely wont be able to store this without at least 2 full tabs lol

[maiden pawn]

Doesn’t help that crates are gobbling up resources like hoarders instead of actually storing them.

[heady sandal]

Does winter affect flowers? I swear there are less flowers in my spot. Either it's the winter or there is a dirty RAT!

[maiden pawn]

It will in the future. I don’t think it’s turned on right now.

[heady sandal]

Great. I have a RAT problem it seems

[main raft]

Anyone done a mix of rare/common mats in armor platings to get uncommon, what works?

[spring summit]

Whats the fastest/most efficient way to level tailoring from 1?

[heady sandal]

EMBERWAKE TREADS, ALL THE WAY TO JOURNEYMAN

oops

[spring summit]

you can make emberwake treads at novice?

you are right, thank you

[heady sandal]

np 🙂

remember to use comission crafting exp scroll

[spring summit]

gotta stockpile a lot of flowers and thread first

but i appreciate the wisdom

[sweet pelican]

Having a hard time finding grave lily, is it even in the game or is it bugged like the dracaena was?

[near sandal]

its in the game, seen it on market, but dunno location to farm

[lucid crypt]

hey @tepid drum thanks for letting us know which buffs

[sinful bane]

Rip bonus stacking "creative use of game mechanics" round 2

[novel surge]

Sorry for the double ping @tepid drum but would we be able to get a list of what is disabled atm? Was just about to try getting some elixirs/food prepped lol

[tepid drum]

I've been told anything that's disabled, people won't be able to use

It's a large amount of things that grant artisanship quality

[novel surge]

Thank you! I was worried it was more like "you can use it, but it will be consumed and just not give bonus"

Ah okay didnt know this would show for trying to stock up too, that is good to have

[ember hare]

Do we have a list of the disabled items? as someone who makes their gold via selling food i would like to know which ones not to make

[novel surge]

That was me trying to buy a tailoring elixir, I could still buy casserole

It also let me buy salad

and paella

So might just be a majority of elixirs being weird

[tepid drum]

Alright, got a full list and posted it here: #alpha-two-news message

[novel surge]

Also I know this is a separate deal and you may or may not get a chance to see/address it but is it intended for profession-specific foods to have the same bonus value as generic? Seems like it just makes all the specific ones worthless

[ember hare]

Thanks Roshen!

[loud cloak]

You might note that the buffs that are not disabled are the generic ones. If you check your character sheet there are two separate stats that are added together for a final quality, the disabled buffs are only the ones that raise specific artisanship quality.

There are separate boons for specific artisanry and generic crafting/gathering and the specific boons are much higher. While I'm not sure if that's a city design choice by the mayors or because the specific buffs are naturally more potent, it demonstrates that depending on location you may want to buff one stat more than the other.

So there is a reason to have buffs for both generic and specific qualities In the current state of the system at least.

[upbeat goblet]

Can those foods and elixirs still be bought?

[loud cloak]

#alpha-two-artisan-chat message

Judging by this, no

[upbeat goblet]

Ah check

[lone glacier]

Are town buffs disabled? Or just the elixirs?

[novel surge]

Problem is the percent buffs from boons arent actually percents

Like the 5% gathering boon is just a flat 150

[loud cloak]

Correct but that is likely a bug judging by the current situation

[novel surge]

Otherwise would definitely agree but the current iteration just has specific foods being useless

If that is the case then it has been bugged since launch sadly

"launch"

[loud cloak]

Half the game is bugged since launch 😂

Alpha test goes brrrr

[novel surge]

Lol yeah fair

[timber dome]

Hey guys. How many gathering professions can we take to journeyman on one character?

[atomic mural]

17 stay at novice - 5 can advance to Apprentice - then 4 to JM - 3 to M and 2 to GM - hope that makes sense

[timber dome]

These are for crafting AND gathering?

[woeful bronze]

yes, all categories combined only 5 can go past novice, also the 4 journeyman take up 4 of the 5 apprentice slots

[timber dome]

Alright cool thank you

So this actually changes how I focus on my crafting stuff. I guess I need to figure out wha to do for what.

Can we go past JM in this alpha?

2GM, 1M, 1JM, 1Apprentice and the rest Novice when all said and done?

[frank hedge]

yes you can, im gm mining (lvl50)

[timber dome]

Oh ok cool

[timber dome]

Is there really anything you can do with level 50 with the other skills? Seeing as we are level capped we can only get radiant gear anyways?

[frank hedge]

tbh? just for flex and say "im grand master mining" XD

all the tools are max jm so no reason to push more

until, maybe, they give us the lvl 50 without a wipe 🤗

[timber dome]

Perfect. This is great to know.

[frank hedge]

Oo and the radiant gear doesnt mean the same in the profession. You can be a low lvl (like 10) and have a gear grand master on you.

[timber dome]

Hmm

[woeful bronze]

to give higher teir skill use and gear would mean character would have be able go to atleast lvl30 for next teir to exist but as subclassing starts at 25 i dont think the higher levels to make higher artisanship needed wont be added till subclassing is added

[timber dome]

Alright I think I got that. Basically right now I just want to stop at JM until level cap goes up. If we dont see a wipe when that happens.

[woeful bronze]

that is fine but yeah theres nothing to going past JM besides bragging rights as stated

[timber dome]

Roger that. I appreciate the explanations for sure.

[fickle compass]

Anyone know why they disabled elixirs? Some type of town buff that borked quality rating I’m guessing?

[torn axle]

Does anyone know a crafting calculator, that actually works with crates?
(The one on ashesofcodex is WAY off)

I just lost money, because it said heroic cert + common mats = blue crate.. which ended up in being a common crate instead. so that sucks

[quaint sundial]

I'm not sure about crates, but it's good to craft weapons, tools and others
https://catswithabs.pages.dev/

[torn axle]

i love you

[atomic mural]

Also if wasn't mentioned you can demote and promote as you wish atm - you lose the xp but means you aren't locked in - that is supposed to change at some point in the future.

[stiff kite]

Aocarmory has been correct so far for me and the guild.

[woeful bronze]

you didnt look at the ingame display of what crate outcome was going to be? and common mats dont become a blue box

[clear tundra]

hey guys can someone explain quality to me? I crafted 47 copper ingots with 641 processing quality using uncommong fragments and common ore - the armory website said it should give me uncommon ingots but it ended up only giving me 3 uncommon ingots. On the flip side i did it with tendonite while the food was still running and it gave me 1 blue ingot and 3 uncommon - any insight would help

[loud cloak]

with processing i think you need to quality when you pick them up not when you start them

i think

[clear tundra]

i had it running for both ends

at the start and the collect

[noble widget]

are ashveil recipes in the game? or are the missing like glimmersoot?

[sweet pivot]

processing qualitt not same as craftimg quality idk its glitched or intended anyway not same

[cursive umbra]

what does material quality change? for example common oak wood vs heroic oak wood

[wispy ginkgo]

@tailoring I'm seeing the alternate Journeyman bags on the AHs, I was led to believe that these were not in game. Can someone please explain the recipe location?

[lucid crypt]

Has anyone managed to find any hollow bound recipes? 👀

[main raft]

Huh, never knew there was all these "beers" that buffed profession qual as well, where are those from?

[gray osprey]

are these still down? i dont see craftsman's casserole or elixir of jeweler on the list but they dont seem to be working

[novel surge]

If you find out, please do tell

[modest token]

What is the best way to level up scribing

[sand drum]

In ArcheAge there was a ship component that let you see other boats on the minimap, is that in this game yet? It was very important for both defense and offense reasons

[robust grotto]

Hello Artisans.

I have question for you. for glorbound crafting gray+epic+epic +1000quality. Will I get yellow? codex tells thats it yellow

[main raft]

aocarmory.com

[robust grotto]

It said yellow with grey+epic+epic + 1000q

Can I trust it?

[novel surge]

If aocarmory says it, then you should be fine

[timber dome]

Aight awesome. Good to know as well.

[twilit berry]

hey guys ladies do you know where to find Barrel Cactus

[wraith tendon]

Ships can be equipped with a radar for that purpose.

[tight turret]

elixirs already working?

[jovial turret]

It's easy. You just need to run Desert Maps cuz that's the only way to get them.

Be advised that maps become bound once u turn a faded map into a restored map so you need to be a Scribe

[fickle compass]

Honestly good change for the artisan buff nerfs

they didnt gut it so its still worth getting , and it was only a day that the buffs were dissabled whiel they thought of a fix

[main raft]

Hah.

[iron tree]

can someone briefly explain to me how mining/veins work in this game. Can Rividium spawn at all places? Do mining basic veins make room for 'rare' veins to spawn? And what are spawn timers?

[fickle compass]

I think the nerfs should stay ... and too be honest i think the nerfs should be more

i have epic artisan gear and have 3/3 guild bonus's

and its about the same as 1 epic elixir , kinda feels bad

[novel surge]

that's a lot of fish

[earnest storm]

But it will only waste bait

[lusty siren]

guess thats why they are reverting?

[radiant ingot]

There appears to be areas that you can find certain higher ranked veins on a longer respawn timer that can fluctuate. Veins can spawn inside of each other so: no, to the question about “making room” for something else to spawn. If you mark areas on your map that you see idk Slate, for example, you can find it there again at a later time. Track where you see things, incorporate it into your mining route or make a separate route for it. Ashescodex interactive map is useful for this. Hope this helps, good luck!

[iron tree]

Cheers! And I was told it’s good to keep mining the same area as well

[pastel tinsel]

does rootforge armor exist in the game yet? only seen it on ashes codex

[coral robin]

Newb Question I've been struggling with bc I'm embaressed I can't figure it out but see nothing online on it (it's probably blindingly simple) - how do I actually fish? Like what are the actual keyboard and visual mechanics of it?

[pastel tinsel]

you hit k, and drag the fishing icon to your bars. walk to water, hit the icon, and watch

[coral robin]

oh ok, yeah that was simple. thank you very much

[pastel tinsel]

np

[desert dock]

Anyone have an updated crafting calculator that’s more accurate than Codex?

[loud cloak]

Aocarmory

[desert dock]

Is it updated with the current changes?

[loud cloak]

Like what happened in the past 6 hours?

Probably not

But they only changed the amount of quality players have

Not what it does

So it should be fine anyway

And it's apparently being rolled back anyway

[desert dock]

No no. This phase

[loud cloak]

The phase as a whole?

Yes

[desert dock]

Yes. Sorry.

[loud cloak]

I wouldn't have said it was accurate if they hadnt

[desert dock]

Oh cool. I’ve been winging it

So this is saying lego i26 weapons are possible with lego/lego/epic and 1500 QR.

Very curious if that works.

While it isn’t accurate on my epic mace, but it is close.

[loud cloak]

It has been perfect for any carpentry I've done with it

Can't speak for other artisans

Someone had issues with making graveplate earlier

So it's not flawless

[desert dock]

I’m really interested in making a lego Glorybound bow. So this would mean I’ll need 600 epic wood 😄

But that’s way better than 600 Lego wood

[loud cloak]

I would say you're better off making an epic i29 bow for a lot less money

[desert dock]

I disagree. I29 heroics cost just as much

[loud cloak]

That so?

[desert dock]

Compare a longsight vs glorybound

[loud cloak]

My price gauging is all fucked atm because of the trashed bot economy ngl

Materials have crashed so much every day

[desert dock]

Well. Everything is less except emblems

Why can’t the bots bring down Thornstride emblems. Just sayin

[loud cloak]

I farmed for those for like 7 hours and got 1 drop

[thick shoal]

Anyone know if Barnacle Buckler recipe drop exists? It supposedly drops from Barnacle Brenn, not sure if such a low drop rate or it doesnt exist

[tender comet]

Are elixers working again?

[dry pulsar]

They don't work as well, I think.

[near sandal]

When crafting an item, does the preview item screen show grade upgrade if you have sufficient +quality, or do I need to use calc and pray?

[jovial linden]

Don't think it takes quality into account, Ashes Forge and CatswithAbs have mostly accurate calculators

[near sandal]

thanks

[clear tundra]

so food and potions are or aren't working now? to increase quality

[novel surge]

They are working

[clear tundra]

thanks

do the carapace stingers from broodlings do anything?

[kind ether]

someone has the table with how many Novice/apprentice/JM job we can have?

[ornate summit]

Is there anyone that can settle the debate on gathering quality gear - is it a linear %, or are there invisible threshholds, and if so, how do we know this, and what are they?

Because I made 3 epic JM bags and got nothing higher than rare when I filled them, at 714, when previously at 535 I was 2-4 epics each run on green JM bags

[fast swan]

With what Station we can buy prism dust? We dont have it right now

[twilit berry]

do you know which rarity of maps drop it?

[jovial turret]

Haven't done maps the last 2 or 3 phases so my knowledge is highly outdated so take it with a grain of salt 🙂

From what I remember the rarity was random.
Map rarity influenced the Tier of material you get.

Normal + Uncommon gives T1 only like Copper / Zinc
Rare + Heroic gives T2 only like Willow and Slate
Epic + Legendary gives T3 only like Braidwood

I am not sure it does still work like that tho

[twilit berry]

its journeyman craft so we need epic+ map rarity probably

[deep dock]

It does, guild member got it today, but it’s definitely a lower drop rate.

[meager drum]

where can i find JM cooking recipes like gatherer's green salad and processors paella?

[stiff kite]

@kind ether something like this?

[kind ether]

that's exactly that, many thanks

[hybrid socket]

I’m looking for a high quality carpenter on shol to craft a glorybound laurelstring shortbow. Any referrals would be very welcome

[hybrid socket]

It’s rng based your results will vary

[thick shoal]

Ok thanks man

[kind ether]

anyone know where i can drop the JM mining bag 2 (quality)

[novel surge]

There are like 1400 messages in #1457162915789410316

Basically quality works as designed right now, primarily going to give you more green/blue drops, overall kinda small impact

If you scroll up a bit there's a table that shows some values. It does use linear interpolation between whole number thresholds

[desert atlas]

Silly question number 3224 - I thought resorce gathering quolity was random now? is it still static??

[worldly hemlock]

Guys, where to get tharaxite? Its subproduct of what ore?

[novel surge]

It is random

[desert atlas]

oh good

[novel surge]

The initial rarity is still determined on spawn but it is random

[jade acorn]

Question about " Nightreaver Greatsword" both the of 2 versions are in the Artisan menu when you look at crafting but are both in the game? and if so where does the one that takes anvils mats drop by chance? in the anvils somewhere i assume but i can't find any info on it.

[spring summit]

What's the best 5 profession setup for somebody wanting to be a GM in armorsmithing? (Understanding ofc the game is meant to be focused on group crafting)

[peak fractal]

It doesn’t pre-determine that anymore either.

[novel surge]

Mine was specifically "on spawn"

Not node locations

[peak fractal]

Yea it does do that either, that’s why the overlay doesn’t work anymore

As I understand it

It’s a roll when you complete the gather

[novel surge]

The second bullet is what I am referring to and has been discussed extensively in the other thread

[peak fractal]

Quality Ingredients seem to be broken again

Salt should not be a quality ingredient and im pretty sure it was not a few days ago... I just tried with uncommon dough and uncommon butter and got common bread.... anyone else seeing this?

[clear tundra]

do you guys feel like any of the mining equipment is worth it for spoils/quality?

[viscid quest]

tanning is..........******

[frozen whale]

Spoils yes, quality up to 700 across all artisan equipment no more, you will not have any significantly impactful changes to quality above Uncommon unless you have an astronomical amount of Quality.

[clear tundra]

with processing paella i have uncommong mats turn into heroic sometimes

[rancid badge]

Where can I get Prism Dust?

[clear tundra]

is there a default keybind to repeat a message in chat

[harsh lava]

the steelbloom neck and rings that says power stat on them is that physical power or if a healer uses it it becomes healing power?

[novel surge]

believe it is just generic power, so it would be equal phys and mag

not 100% sure on it counting as healing power though since that has its own scaling

[harsh lava]

ah okay ty its a bit confusing cos i looked on good and it says its a good set for a healer but i dont understand how when the stats give power 😅

[dry urchin]

It contributes to both phys and mag power equally, and mag power contributes to healing power

[harsh lava]

okay tyvm 🙂

[wanton lion]

how/where do i get this recipe? is it a Destiney i needed to choose

[novel surge]

Yeah what they said but also healing power itself is stronger than mag power

[wanton lion]

what idiot made this bound

my guildmate is unable to get this then?

[topaz mist]

Is there no fish for jundark, meaning no crates run -from- wild port?

[novel surge]

Never noticed it was bound

Always got those from the starting area

[grizzled anchor]

Does enchanting a JM lumber axe increase its stats?

And follow up, would it be initiate or radiant

[unreal imp]

How does it work for crates? how can i change ingredient? (i clicked everywhere) https://aocarmory.com/crafting-calculator

[vague canopy]

If I go through the craft book, searching ingredients for every profession, but I don’t find anything for the material I’m looking for, does that mean the material is useless or that I don’t have a fully discovered recipe book?

I feel like I look everywhere and there’s nothing sometimes, but then /gl gives me a use case when I ask

[austere whale]

I wanna try Scribe, anyone know what the quickest way to get from 1 - 20 is?

[harsh lava]

I see ty

[fierce pecan]

anyone know where to find this recipe?/ farm for it

[azure fern]

does anyone know where the "Recipe: Journeyman Mining Pickaxe 2" comes from?

[twin lodge]

The Nightreaver Greatsword that has the anvil mats is misnamed, the recipe "pyrebrand greatsword" gives you that version of nightreaver

dont ask where it drops though, someone put a copy in my guildbank so idk where it came from

[iron tree]

Is the Slagbreaker Pickaxe really worth it?

The price tag seems so high

[sweet elk]

BiS always comes at a premium, theres no other availible quality/spoils t3 pickaxe

[iron tree]

But isnt there like a dropoff on quality

[sweet elk]

theres breakpoints sure but somethings price doesnt take into account what other stuff you have 😛 also its a forge recipe youre also paying for the logistics cost of needing to be crafted in forge

[south cradle]

The ingredient search only works for recipes that are unlocked, or crafts that are enabled by default. Probably a bug.

[blazing ruin]

I've yet to figure it out. People say all possible recipes are in recipe book, but yet I've never seen 90% of recipes drop or sell or items from them made

Unless it comes from devs or you see proof, you know nothing

[main raft]

They also have weird names like NightreaverMAG 2H Longbow instead of the created Items name. 🙂

[bright salmon]

Copper and zinc drop-rates are horrible after the patch/rollback. Anyone noticed this?

[neat drift]

idk, seems most nodes arent gatherable right now

[lusty siren]

What has the highest drop rate for deepweld emblems?

[vernal gale]

Can any1 confirm if death pearl recipe drops from shanty shawn

Farmed him for awhile and nothing but nuts

[wicked agate]

Can some1 tell me why grem carcass are in hight demand pls?

[surreal linden]

what time does the daily buy order limit reset?

[vast tide]

Where is the actual Slagbreaker pick made? Ingots are in forge, but I don't see the recipe at the GM station. I have the recipe learned

[hybrid socket]

The pick is made in the forge as well

[spring summit]

yup all the slag stuff is made in the forge, pretty neat. but i feel like its just gonna make it skipped gear when we have th efull game out

[radiant ingot]

15 slate nodes, no tin. I’m feeling it a little too

[jovial goblet]

Does anyone know how deconstruction kits work? I made one as an arcane engineer at journeyman. but I cant use it on an item to deconstruct it please help

[velvet trellis]

Are both foods and potions diabled for crafting quality bonuses still?

[novel surge]

no

[woeful bronze]

What item were you trying to use it on?

[jovial goblet]

it was some radiant green axe

[shadow mist]

Are the Bloomwarden Shoulders and Sash actually craftable?

[velvet trellis]

Trying to make some rings, and the craft is showing that the food and elixir aren't adding any buffs

you sure they work?

[shadow mist]

the craft preview doesnt account for buffs, just material rarity
but the actual item will comeout with them

[royal snow]

anyone know spots for Iron ore nodes

[rocky valley]

I dont know if this is the right place to discuss this but I would really like a change to crafting cloth and leather gear. The cost of leather is way to expensive. Having a helmet cost 119 wolf carcasses makes it almost impossible to craft an higher quality version without spending weeks gathering just that one animal. I know the bigger issue is how Hunting and Tanning work but I feel we need a band-aid fix until they can complete the overhaul on the two professions. I do not know if any devs have commented on this but I think we need the hide/tanned hide/leather costs of these profession lowered to match what is realistically obtainable by the player base. Currently the whole Rosethorn Leather set takes 850 wolf carcasses which is crazy with how hunting works.

[jovial turret]

Can someone tell me where to find Basilisk for Flailrunner in the Jndark?

[peak fractal]

Even though the tooltip says jundark - it doesn’t spawn there currently.

[peak fractal]

Cheap/fast way to level tanning

[jovial turret]

and where do they spawn?

[wooden briar]

a lot of the crafting and gathering is intensely more expensive and time consuming that I would like for sure. I really do hope they take the time to balance it out better.

[iron tree]

Did Rividium stop spawning?

[loud cloak]

there is a publically released resource ESP hack and ever since the same day it got updated for this alpha phase t2/3 resources have been scarce; i'll let you put 2 and 2 together

[iron tree]

Really ? Im fairly new to the game, and 2 days ago I found Rividium fairly regularly on my route, but the past 2 days it's very slim

[loud cloak]

its a bigger problem for trees honestly

on my server i am lucky to see 1 braidwood in 6 hours of cutting trees

before, i would see one every 15 minutes or so

[iron tree]

So they are basically able to see them from far away? dafuq

Guess crate running is the only way then yikes

[loud cloak]

its probably not a very widespread issue, but it only takes a few people per server for it to get bad because there are so few spawns of those resources to begin with

[iron tree]

Or start mining mass amounts of Volcanic rock instead

[loud cloak]

i also have no evidence of the above but the program does exist and people can buy it, we hve bots and fly hackers galore so why would they not have this too

and when you see 1 braidwood in a whole day, then look at joeva market and there is 1 person selling 15 legendary

its kinda sus lmao

[iron tree]

It seems scuffed yeah

[scarlet valve]

Hey are there fixed spots for sportfishing in the anvils or can they show up on any waterspot?

[lucid crypt]

now that you mention it, ive been seeing some very strange stuff on the markets on lyneth

like the same people putting up hundreds of the same quality of wood, and only that

[wide portal]

Can someone 100% confirm or deny if the "generic" crafting quality that you see on the top of the character window and the "specifc" crafting quality (i.e weaponsmithing) are added together for the actual crafting quality you have? Because I'm still lost on that bit and the UI ofc doesn't help

[sour narwhal]

i can confirm they add up otherwise i woud have had many failed crafts

[wide portal]

Tyvm 🙏 🙏

[wicked agate]

ok i see! and why ppl are buying otter carcass? is it to craft an item are a consumable?

[hazy bloom]

Someone on reddit asked why is ther no sub for tips and tricks alone, without the negative drama. So i created just that. I alone can not fill that sub with guides, tutorials, tips and tricks so if you guys want to contribute, pls visit https://www.reddit.com/r/AshesofTipsandTricks/ and post your stuff 🙂

[clear tree]

Anyone know what happens if i start a process that requires apprentice, then demote it down to novice while its working?

[modest token]

You can only deconstruct items that you can make with your skill level. So if you are a JM Arcane Engineer, you could deconstruct arcane engineering items up to JM level. You cannot deconstruct other weapons, clothing, etc. without having the skill to craft them.

[peak fractal]

Some high-level armor uses otter leather which needs otter hides/carcasses

[peak fractal]

You can still retrieve from the bench when completed

[peak fractal]

Also the calculator on AOC Armory seems to be very accurate right now. So you can double check there (though it may not be perfect)

[wide portal]

thats what im using yeah

its been accurate so far

[wicked agate]

ty! can you name those armors pls cause filter by ingredient doesnt work...

[pearl portal]

Rosarium armor needs Otter Leather

[sinful bane]

I mean you can google like a 5 year old and and 20 bux later be flying around. The situation is laughable at this point.

[iron tree]

Where does Tharaxite come from?

[woven stone]

Anvils rocks. Chance to get it when mining high tier rocks

[woven stone]

Do you all notice a significant bump in rarity when using gathering salad food?

[supple bramble]

No

But... what rarity of the food are you using as well?

[lucid crypt]

gathering qual is a meme

[woven stone]

I hadnt bought it yet, thought I would ask first

[mild oracle]

I'm in Miraleth and have to travel to Briamoor Farms. What kinda of crate should I run that it'll reward the largest amount of gold?

[shadow mist]

Are the Bloomwarden Shoulders and Sash actually craftable?

[mighty jetty]

I feel like the crafting needs to be harder but more simplified

I feel like the UI is a mess

why does it take 800 zinc to craft a couple of pieces of gear ridiculous

its not even difficult just a massive time sink

[vague canopy]

I agree

I went 5/5 gathering because the crafting UI was so tedious

[mighty jetty]

it should go across the screen not down

its so dumb that u don't even have to kill a single boss to make bis gear lmao.

I hope when this game comes out I will be able to afford the hardware to play it, because this game has been in alpha for some time and maybe lower the graphic requirements? so that I don't have to drop another 4000 dollars in the year 2029 to play ashes of creation because of rising hardware costs make it more available to lower end hardware.

[sonic void]

Is "barrel cactus" in the game yet? We need to know. (why add recipes you can't gather mats for) (that last part is rhetorical...

[mighty jetty]

one final thing this game needs more fog of war type gameplay, because u shouldn't start off with every crafting recipe u haven't even earnend. in your UI. it makes the discovery more fun. so that you progressively get better at the crafting system.

[sonic void]

fog of war + some shit about getting or not getting recipes

I just want to know if barrel cactus has been added.

[solar bear]

anyone know where to find Apprentice Scroll of Adventuring Experience recipe?

[mighty jetty]

I personally think that processisng should be optional not mandatory used for gold making.

[worldly zealot]

Do we know if specif foods are better than foods that work for all? For example, gatherer's green salad vs herb crusted gryphken? Is generic quality raise weighted the same as specific gathering quality?

[novel surge]

Dont think there is a difference

[dapper basin]

Gatherer's Green Salad is the best of the gathering food of any specific category. values are the same. So if garden salad has 394 quality, so the does the Excavation Empanadas (But only applies to mining). So Gatherer's green salad is overwhelmingly the better option and it shouldnt be that way. There is NO reason not to buy the Gathering Salad when you see it.

And I wish you cooks would stop selling your goods at a loss or cost. Its ruining the profession and economy. 🙂

A baby sheep costs 17S off the rip. 1 tomato costs 17S for the water. Stop it 🙂

[frozen whale]

That goes for everything
Stop selling your unneeded materials for 50% under maket value geeze

Not you specifically but others

[sinful bane]

Eh, many probably don't want to spend 10 minutes searching the abomination called the current market implementation to find a price to hopefully sell at.

[frozen whale]

Search by item, select rarity, check like 5 listings, use the average

[sinful bane]

Doesn't get tons better, I'm on a 5080 and it's just nicer looking but still often janky performance.

Client FPS will never be the core issue with MMO's the server performance when things kick off will always be what fails you before your own hardware does.

[sinful bane]

Obviously I'm being facetious but the market is needlessly cumbersome and sucks to parse as a human in it's current stall / vendor implementation.

A crafting system that is designed around a robust market of sub-combines changing hands, while the market system to support it pointlessly drives up the difficulty of engaging in trade for many is just baffling.

I get it's early, but this is what they've chosen to go with thus far, and the result is people not interacting with it fully, or selling below market (the posted gripe), or any other number of dumb things occurring. That's not touching on the impact all the incessant botting is having to actually push material into the market. It likely makes up quite a decent percentage of the daily volume on both ends.

ctkkJJJ's random storefront might as well be a dollar store with unlimited commons inventory while also being a purveyor of fine, ethically sourced™ epic and legendary goods.

[frozen whale]

I get it

Tbh any gripe with the current marketplace is moot because of the current blotting and rmt situation.

Materials are flooding the market making price fluctuate wildly, mean while a select few types of materials namely Lithium and Junskosh remain elusive at high rarity, which I haven't quite been able to pin down why.

Is it strictly because its gated by the RNG of the secondaries tou get from mining or is it because Scalestone doesn't exist in the game which would be a secondary source of Junskosh.

People are finding Legendary Lithium and Junskosh but at least on Lyneth it seems like the same people selling it

[nocturne pendant]

IIRC, you need to have the correct profession type and certificate to deconstruct an item. F.ex. deconstructing a radiant sword requires JM Weaponsmithing whereas an Adept Focus would need Apprentice Arcane Engineer.

[sinful bane]

I have to think the influx via botting is quite substantial, especially in the state the interface is currently operating. The market interface is also most likely just as vulnerable to shady things, no one can be sitting there listing endless stacks all day, like some of these 'players' are. Even EQ tradeskillers aren't as sadist as one actively doing this would be.

We'll see what the near future brings I guess, or more just head in the sand.

[vague canopy]

I think part of the reason the UI is as it is is because it is emulating a real life market experience. I think it’s fine for that. I just dislike how some of the sliders or arrows are unresponsive and how it takes a while to figure out how to use the UI effectively. How everything needs ticking, unticking, refreshing, etc. Same with the skillbool. Everything is very janky, even tho the UI design is fine and creates a certain experience with a purpose.

[loud cloak]

You're fucking cooked

[vast compass]

Hello, anyone know a good spot in the jungle to farm Cryptward recipe ?

[ocean magnet]

How you getting on farming cows :/ Making bread is just about profitable, but the fact that I need to grow 2 cows to make butter is ludicrous. Surley the spoils of milking 1 cow should = 10 milk or more

[ocean hinge]

So how do people make gold with professions in this game? Gathering? Buying mats and Selling weapons didnt Pay off well

[loud cloak]

I gather all my own shit

Then spend 3 days trying to sell what I craft because everyone is fuckin poor

[ocean hinge]

Gathering 600 green copper takes some time hah

[loud cloak]

And I won't sell for less than mat cost

[ocean hinge]

Yh thats the other thing haha

So few can actually afford weapons

[loud cloak]

Be selling heroic glorybound and get offers like "hey man 15g?"

Fuck outta here broke ahhh

[ocean hinge]

Yeah the experience is not fun lol

[loud cloak]

9 out of 10 ask for the price then never reply

I get the odd sale in marketplace but it's a risk because the tax adds up if you gotta relist

[ocean hinge]

Well glad im not the only one with simular experience

[lucid crypt]

U missed the boom. People with money want their shit as early as it comes online

Now it’s all the brokies with 5g worth of glint that are left buying

[ocean hinge]

Yeah thats My other problem really. The rushers drain all the gold making in crates. What are the avg player left with to make money? Rn most crate runs are so low profit

Seems there is no room for casual players in this game

[lucid crypt]

There’s no room for casuals to be competitive

Just as it should be

[ocean hinge]

Well the game shouldnt be tuned so the avg. Player just drop dead instantly to a rusher asumed we are talking the same levels. A power gap is expected and needed in an mmo

But not like current

[loud cloak]

Honestly need a degredation system like swg had where gear breaks over time and you have to replace it every couple months.

Otherwise crafting just dies completely except for consumables

[ocean hinge]

Gear degredation punishes casuals more than anything

[lucid crypt]

Welcome to active development. Gear gap and ttk has been significantly different every phase. And will continue to be until they find a spot they like

[loud cloak]

Punishes them less because it degrades slower since they don't play as much, yeah

[ocean hinge]

This game needs to be made more approachable to casuals if it wants to survive

[loud cloak]

Eventually there will be more gear than players in this system and crafting will be nearly impossible to make money from except the cooks, scribes and alchemists

[ocean hinge]

Yeah alot of professions dont seem sustainable long term. I always intended to do hunting/animal h. When its more fleshed out. Seemed more adventure gameplay friendly and everyone always wants new Mounts

[loud cloak]

I wanted to hunt but the way it currently works is unsustainable

[ocean hinge]

Agree. My hunting sits at lvl 10

I guess animal husbandry can be done easily with gold

Just buy alot of mules from vendor

[frozen whale]

sigh

[ember hare]

Fellow farmers and cooks, whats the trick to getting better than normal cows/sheep. Is it really a matter of gettign svivi's and shirt along with food for farming or is there something else I'm missing??

[toxic socket]

ikr

[novel surge]

I do wonder about them going with a bind on equip system. Though that would only help the lower-end gear since people couldnt shuffle it on alts if they make them

[toxic socket]

does my level of farming affect quality of product?

[loud cloak]

Doesn't seem to be the case for other skills but I can't say for certain

It's a processing skill right? None of the calculators have a level option for the skill when calculating process quality so probably not

[hardy marsh]

Anyone have a safe route to take a caravan from Sunhaven north into Riverlands that avoids the high level mobs?

[midnight salmon]

This is the only option for a true player driven Eco to work , it can be very slow decay though

Any alts to AOC codex?

[blazing ruin]

Eventually everyone will be flush with gold and nothing to buy.

[keen creek]

What QR are people hitting for epic+lego+lego to go lego? 1.7k?

[oak spindle]

Is there a way to resend chat messages with the item links intact? Or is everyone relinking each item everytime they put out trade messages

[dapper basin]

Cows used to give x5 milk. Some of the crafting food produces 18 items, like Excavation Empanadas. Some Food Like The Gleaming Gelato only produces 1 Item, but requires 2 sheep (1 milk per sheep). Each sheep costs 17s off the rip. The recipes aren't balanced in any consistent manner.

Not to mention, most of the desert recipes are broken and add no stats.

[tropic gazelle]

Are city boons enabled?

[pulsar frigate]

Maybe I’m just not smart enough, but I think it’s pretty hard to determine how a truly player driven economy would work when everything is distorted by botters and dupers. The system is so perverse right now. Supply of gold is artificially elevated, quantum of product is distorted, and you are left with disincentived players because RMT just makes more sense. I think the system would be close to workable (at least for a longer period of time) if botters/dupers weren’t present. The game is too reliant of the value of gold/crafting materials to operate in a world of cheaters/hackers. I think this is why so many MMOs moved away from gold providing such an advantage because they couldn’t beat the botters. I wish this weren’t the case. I genuinely think this game is awesome and has so much potential, but it cannot survive botters/hackers. The game is too gear dependent with not enough skill expression. Gear matters too much. Botters wet dream

[pulsar frigate]

Don’t think so

[loud cloak]

The only reason I'm still playing at all is because I'm gathering my own resources to make my gear and trying not to engage with the bot dominated market as much as possible

And I'm only doing that because I simply have nothing better to do at the moment

[ebon coyote]

Now much quality does this provide by the way? There's no information on it and it doesn't show on the stat sheet

[pulsar frigate]

Yea, I’m still playing too, and doing the same. Just feel disconnected from the actual game as participation has me highly out geared. Still trying though lol

[loud cloak]

Nothing at the moment because settlement boons are disabled

[tropic gazelle]

I'm wearing drops only and have been grindimg carph/sport fishing/ breaking rocks for weeks i'm finally going to be crafting 4piece acadira this week, heroic shoulder/belt, and blue wrist/boots. I'll be a stage ahead of all the RMTers paying 300g for a set of rosarium

[loud cloak]

I think it's 30% but it might be 60%

The boons have been bugged and stack always when they're on so idk what the real numbers are

[pulsar frigate]

I made the mistake of thinking artisan gear provided meaningful benefit to gathering/provessing, so most of my spend has been on better artisan gear. Only to see no meaningful difference in full set of epic artisan gear vs basic common gear. I need to reprioritize lol

[loud cloak]

I did the same but I refuse to resell it because one day in the next year or so they might fix it

[pulsar frigate]

Hahaha same!!

[loud cloak]

I'm convinced gathering quality does actually work but is somehow spaghetti code tied into the settlement boons and doesn't work while they're disabled

When they turned them on for like 6 hours the other day. I could feel it man

And before they got disabled the first time it genuinely seemed to help

[pulsar frigate]

It works, it just doesn’t provide a lot of benefit. I typically run +1300 qual, +1500 spoils, and it’s better than nothing, but it is not meaningful. I get like 10% more uncommon vs common. But on heroic and above, it makes no difference

[loud cloak]

But ever since they got turned off it's like nothing

[pulsar frigate]

Yea, the boons helped a ton. I think they should implement a min qual rating to get certain tier levels to drop. Like you need to be above 1k to get epic, and above 1500 to get Lego. I forgot to swap out my metal processing gear, and stepped outside of jov, first rock I hit dropped 2 leggo basalt. My first leggos ever. I had 400 qual on. For something so awesome, it felt so bad lol

[vast compass]

how can people do Uncommon craft with common materials ?

[pulsar frigate]

+qual makes a difference in crafting

I think if you have +1500, you can turn a common craft to uncommon

[vast compass]

ah ok, i tought it was just about the stats of the item

ok thanks

[pulsar frigate]

1500 might not be the right number. But there is a number that could be less that provides uplift in crafting from common to uncommon

[loud cloak]

Only 700

[pulsar frigate]

That’s insane

[loud cloak]

It's achievable with no artisan gear and just common buffs

Common crafted gear shouldn't exist

There was a guy a while back crying that people selling uncommon petalshard for 3g must be duping

And it's like nah man you can print it for an hour with just 1g worth of buffs

[pulsar frigate]

Seems super distorted towards crafting. Gathering/processing is not the same. Like in that logic, if I run >700 gathering qual, shouldn’t I never see common drops?

[loud cloak]

I think it has pretty heavy diminishing returns

Common to uncommon is easy, common to rare is like 4000 or something

Not achievable

[pulsar frigate]

I saw someone craft a leggo mace that had 3 components. 2 of which he had leggo, and 3rd was epic. He had 1900 qual, and it lifted the craft to leggo

[loud cloak]

Yeah because the mats were high too

[crude grail]

anyone knows if carphin emblems drop outside the tower at carphin wreckage too ? and where do i get glassveil emblems ? ofof 29+ desert mobs ?

[ebon coyote]

Wouldn't it have to be 2100 qual with those mats?

[blazing ruin]

Or just get rid of rarity. What the heck is rare zinc vs common zinc? They're both zinc. Quality can come from crafting skill

[loud cloak]

More emphasis on the processing and crafting quality would be nice

Would nerf bot viability too

[blazing ruin]

Or at least add actual rare metals as a spoil. Tungsten, palladium etc

Ill just assume it's a placeholder...

[loud cloak]

I think placeholders is as far as this game is getting

But I've had my moneys worth

[ocean hinge]

Yeah quality dissapearing for pure quality skill/buffs would be a good change imo. Put more of the power in the item during the crafting instead of gathering. Also makes gear grinds more humane

[peak fractal]

I think the rarity system is good for a few reasons. 1) It simplifies what some other games will show as 1-100 purity into 6 buckets that give a sense of how "good" the raw resource is. 2) Which in turn gives gatherer's a way to participate in the value-chain and have a sense of accomplisment/excitement when they find rarer materials that they know will be worth more.

[peak fractal]

Yea the issue is that for gathering and processing its a chance to proc higher rarity. So, just a RNG boost. But for crafting its a determinstic outcome. Get X quality and Get Y result. I am not sure how I feel about it yet to be honest. As mainly a hunter/farmer/cook obviously I wish it was more guaranteed but I also recognize that the way it currently works is also workable... idk.

[pulsar frigate]

I think I’d be fine with it not being deterministic if it was actually meaningful. But my experience has been subpar. Without boons, I can only get to about 1k processing qual/spoils. 250 common basalt yielded me about 5-7 uncommon ore, and like 15 uncommon sand. One time a 250 stack of uncommon granite did yield 1 heroic sand… that was cool except the part where it was sand lol

I’ve spent a dumb amount of time trying to get this to make sense. Should have just gotten into crafting professions

[lucid crypt]

Yall realize how fast it would destroy the economy if gathering and processing qual/spoil was anything like crafting right? lol

[blazing ruin]

Well its all just numbers and colors then which is boring. Click rock, wait, rng colors. Min max numbers. Id rather they add some immersion and challenge to everything. But again its probably a place holder...

[pulsar frigate]

I kinda disagree. I think you get to a similar point. If I process common to uncommon and have a crafter with no qual, then I get uncommon gear. I think the standard to go from uncommon to rare is higher qual on crafting. I could be wrong, don’t have it all figured out. They should just remove qual from gathering/processing professions then and give a stat that actually matters. Also, the economy is already broken 😂😂😂

Or don’t replace it with anything, but it’s misleading to spend effort to get high qual on gather/processing and get close to nothing in return

Idk I’m still gonna play the game. It’s just a criticism of design, doesn’t change the fact that I think there is something awesome here. Not everything is perfect. I get it. Not dooming about this, more just discussion

[lucid crypt]

It’d probably be fine if both effected the lower tiers of mats more

[pulsar frigate]

Or just make it threshold based. So you can’t gather epic/leggo mats without a min qual. Same with processing. Puts more value on maximizing those artisan professions

[waxen glade]

is there some consensus on the best lure to use for freshwater sport fishing? the most expensive ones don't seem worth it with the chance to catch a walleye worth half what you paid for the lure

i've been using the cheapest that can still hook garr but that's mostly just vibes based

[primal pebble]

What's actually working in game rn as far as crafting quality? Elixirs working or disabled? Should I wait to craft until artisan settlement boons are re-enabled?

[tropic gazelle]

Considering that saltwater is basically paddle/fly>all else, I'd reccomend just blasting flying lures for freshwater

[waxen glade]

going to try spoon lures, feel like a chance of getting catfish/pike instead of just walleye is worth an extra 15s

will see though

[waxen glade]

oops all walleye even with the spoon lure

at least the code 37 disconnect didn't hurt as much this time

[iron tree]

How is money increased with sport fishing? is it simply based on which fish you catch?

[waxen glade]

type and size

[grave violet]

Do tempering kits work?

[iron tree]

cheers.. do I always need chum to fish?

[waxen glade]

if nobody else is at the spot yes, but usually they get swarmed so it'll probably already be chummed unless you're the first one there

[iron tree]

hmm the sports fishing bar is not showing up?

Do I need to enable it?

[waxen glade]

it doesn't pop up until you hook something

[iron tree]

I just did

Couldnt see it

[waxen glade]

are you sport fishing or afk fishing

[iron tree]

Sport

[waxen glade]

separate skill on your bar for sport fishing and only works in chummed active fishing holes

hmm idk then, might need to customize your HUD but it should pop up by default when you hook something

[iron tree]

hmm strange.. Just got a hook again

not showing up

Hmm was apprently disabled

jesus..

[waxen glade]

huh yeah idk then sorry, theoretically you can do it without the bar and just use the keybinds (arrow keys and numpad 0/Rctrl by default)

weird

[iron tree]

No clue why I was diabled tho

[waxen glade]

anecdotal evidence is that spoon lures do seem worth it, was about 50/50 walleye/catfish and almost all small

but even the small catfish are ~70-80s compared to the walleye's 30-40

and a pike is 1g+ which the spoon lure can attract too

[sacred chasm]

Are bullywog carcasses used in any recipes right now ?

[vernal basin]

2 hours of jundark fishing at journeyman

i think drop ratios are off

[frozen jasper]

Anyone know how I can get differnet bag recipes? Journeyman? Ones with quality? as tailor

[pulsar frigate]

4 legendary in 2 hours is awesome

[wooden briar]

does anyone know where one can find a reliable Cryptward drop? basalisks don't seem to be dropping it or it takes forever and I've not seen the drop.

[vernal basin]

but 0 raress and 5 uncommon is wild

[clear tree]

Is there a way to see or calculate how much quality buffs the settlement buildings actually give?

[clear tundra]

im torn on whether or not its worth it to invest into higher quality mining gear or just pop gatherer food and mining potions

same with metalworking

[vale epoch]

Ive also gotten legendaries frequently there

[storm kindle]

is this gatherable currently in game?

[keen creek]

no, only available via treasure maps if you are lucky

anyone knows a 3-ingredient combination that results in lego? calcs are giving different results. e.g. epic+lego+lego with 1600 QR is epic with cats, lego with aocarmory

[cursive sphinx]

Am I just unlucky or has the quality percentage on gatherables gone significantly down since the rollback?

[wide portal]

Idk if it's different for different professions, but I've been experimenting with weaponsmithing in aocarmory. Epic copper/zinc/tendonite + leg T2 and leg T3 gives leg weapon with 1504 quality. Not tried in game though

1504 is a break point, 1600 quality is likely the exact same as having 1504. According to aocarmory anyway

[keen creek]

Yeah sounds likely, but prolly gonna wait and pray they enable boons and don't mess with food QR anymore

[wide portal]

I'll know for sure once I manage to gather 600 epic copper 💀

[vast compass]

Hello, anyone know where the Cryptward recipe are droped please ? roaming in the jungle for age, cant find it

[loud cloak]

I'm not sure what's going on with aocarmory here; it used to show incremental stat changes with quality as it increased but they seem to only show predefined breakpoints now even though the incremental changes still appear in game. I think the catswithabs calculator is more accurate for that incremental info now but it has a worse UI imo.

[wide portal]

That's very interesting. I'll have to check the same recipe and mats on both calcs

[half sand]

hey guys, while leveling, i've pushed mining to 25+, metalworks and stoneprocesing to 20+. Currenlty, i only use metal works and stoneprocessing to get EXP and sell my mining ore directly.

Are there good ways to make money out of metalworks and stone processing, which might be more valuable then selling ore?

[wide portal]

So I compared a glorybound 2h mag mace on aocarmory and 26 ilvl weapon on catswithabs with 200 epic copper/2 leg iron/7 leg willow.

• aocarmory says 1504 quality for leg
• catswithabs says 2100 quality for leg

Looks like using lower tier mats is still a gamble idk

[loud cloak]

I would err on the side of cats calc with that kind of money involved

Better safe than sorry

2100 quality is a challenge though for sure

Have to wait for boons to come back imo

[wide portal]

Absolutely. Don't think you can even reach 2100 without boons

[ebon hamlet]

what good are jundark fish outside of crates? I don't see anything that uses their oil and no cooking recpiee's worth it

[vernal basin]

This was for crates to avoid paying 50s a fish

[ember hare]

gotchya, thanks. I was wondering, I don't run many crates so was wondering if I was missing something else

[vernal basin]

The briar fish are the only fish you can use from jundark crates, and clearly had a lower drop rate (it’s also journeyman gated)

[ember hare]

yeah I gave it a test while working today, I agree the drop rates seem highly tuned compared to other zones. This was an hour and a half

[vernal basin]

With or without buffs?

[ember hare]

1 hour with blue fishermans delight, 30 minutes without

Common journey man pole, 2 common apprentice fishing bags and 1 heroic one

Armor weapon food etc

[pastel tinsel]

yeah, i have zero interest in initiate gear, yet I get to sort through them anyways

[blazing ruin]

[radiant ingot]

Coke for high tier ingots and some stonemasonry stuff, respectively. You can search by ingredient in the skill (P) menu and click thru the different artisan skills to see if it pulls anything up from what’s available on there. Great way to try and resolve the many “what’s this for?” questions we may have later lol

[blazing mesa]

Any point to leveling Hunting/Tanning or LW to master/GM? Or any artisan in general.

[loud cloak]

coming back to this, someone i know just did it with 1512 and it went leg ymmv

[lament shell]

not right now since crafting only goes up to journeyman at the moment

[wide portal]

thats big

basically means aocarmory is accurate

[blazing mesa]

So what only that matters getting above JM are the settlement expansions?

there a JM fish all JM fish have lower drops than the others lower level ones

[near sandal]

On server restart, are weeping willow/braidwood trees all spawned afterward immediately..?

[loud cloak]

Likely

They don't have set locations though, it's just a chance to spawn in place of the lower tier trees afaik

So you still have to go hunting for them

[near sandal]

there are certain locations or zones they spawn in

so I just check like a 50-100 meter radius around that, seems to work out

[near sandal]

its from limestone in desert, I think

[versed flare]

Thank you!

[near sandal]

well there are recipes that require either Master or GM level to craft (recipe says so), and for gathering there are passive skills in ur skillbook that u are supposed to get at higher levels, but dunno if they actually work/are applied currently

[mortal minnow]

That search function NEVER works right.

[radiant ingot]

That’s not my experience with it. I only knew those answers because of it. But if it’s broken for you, /bug & sorry to hear that. It’s a very useful feature

[vernal basin]

It’s more of the ratio weights of the rarity on briarback specifically seem off

[mortal minnow]

I will I just figured it would end up on the not a priority list. The Market Search tool sucks too.

[radiant ingot]

You’re probably right

[thick acorn]

nothing more demoralising than running around jundark for hour and finding 0 cocao tree almost feel there bots teleporting and hitting them on spaw n:p

2 hours of cacao hunting found 0 guess il ltry again tomorrow 😛

[south cradle]

It works perfectly fine! ...as long as you've learned every recipe in game, as it only shows results from recipes you know.

[spiral cargo]

when u use deconstruction kits on blue items can u get blue mats back?

[jovial linden]

There is a button to show recipes you don't know, might have to toggle it on and off when you switch pages though

[wide portal]

If you wanna search by ingredient follow these steps :

• ✅ search by ingredient
• ✅ show only known recipes
• ❌ show only known recipes

Now you can see all recipes that use the keyword you typed as material whether you know the recipe or not

Have gathering drops seemed unusually bad the 36ish hours? I mined for two hours straight last night with a pitstop at one hour mark to offload bag space before repotting, out of the 2000 plus mats I farmed, nothing higher than Blue, other than one 6 stack of epic copper (that was nice 😊). I’ve never seen it that bad.

[mortal minnow]

Then why have a toggle between known and unknown! Friggin Alphas.

Got mats for epic skivvies, craft according to link below should work, right? https://www.ashesforge.com/crafting-calculator?recipe=6064632236037242982&quality=1000&values=23.0.0.0.0.0&values=0.0.9.7.2.0&values=0.0.0.0.0.3

Does anyone have information on the relationship between hunting quality and drops of mounts vs carcasses?

usefull or what do i do with it?

[vernal basin]

crates

[vernal gale]

Any1 know of a good cacao tree / birds of para hot spot

[thick acorn]

cacao trees like almost dont exsist there so rare to come across u can go hours before u find one or two :p

[vernal gale]

Ive found a few spots they commonly are in jundark

[thick acorn]

they are only found in junark just rare as u can find small clusters sometimes but they like to change spots

[vernal gale]

Not found in turq sea ? Says they are just havent been that side of map yet

[thick acorn]

nope only dragon tree in the seas

[vernal gale]

Hmm okay guess i keep going to my 2 spots for 8 cacao pretty much everytime

[thick acorn]

the spots tend to rotate every couple days so use it while u can my 2 8 spots changed 2 days ago 🙁

[torn fiber]

theres 4 or 5 that spawn around Wildport

[vernal gale]

Are you sure there not just a chance to spawn in x area or zone

I been farming jundark for like a week straight mapping it out on hot spots / stocling for mass crafting some nightreaver wamds and i can say without a doubt i get cacao at 2 areas
Ontop the mountain near murmuring root the whole outside you can find like 3-5

And all around outside parimeter tangled post village gets like 3-8

Weeping willow you can follow routes around and they spawn around the same locations not exact but very very close by

[novel surge]

Are there some actual decent spots? I ran around up there for a good bit last night following the interactive map without much luck. Found a handful of spots where you can kill them for respawns but definitely not much in the way of statics. The killable ones were also awkwardly spread

[wooden canyon]

there is one spot with a decent amount of killable

[versed flare]

Is it only from treasure map?

[novel surge]

Maybe I need to make another trip up there. Went through like 6 different locations along the river with no luck last night lol

[pulsar frigate]

I’ve had this same question, through testing I havnt really been able to figure it out. I havnt been able to successfully uplift rarity for 100% of a batch. Like I usually sit around 900 quality for metalworking. If I put a batch of common through, I can’t get only uncommon output. I’ve seen it implied that you can, but I havnt been able to do it. With that said, what we can do is similar to other professions, which is if I use 1 epic copper and 1 rare copper to make 2 fragments, both fragments will be heroic. So you can optimize base rarity, but I don’t know if you can shift base rarity with +qual

[plucky cradle]

Does any hunter here have insight into what affects the drop rates of mounts vs carcasses?

Is that purely luck driven? or hunting quality etc?

[iron tree]

What's the most efficient way to level Husbandry ?

[ashen obsidian]

Access to journeyman vendor items is bugged. I am journeyman tailor and cannt buy crafting recipes or mats from vendor on Journeyman crafting station in Miraleth on Tenok (EU) server.

I am journeyman lumber miller and cant buy journeyman crafting items from vendor at journeyman lumber milling station in Miraleth , but can do it in Joeva Tenok (EU) server.

I submitted bug reports and I am hoping it will be fixed in near future.

[woven stone]

having gold. No, seriously, theres no other way. If youre in a crafting guild, or any guild really, you only need 1-3 AH artisans(depending on guild size).

As with all professions, the best way to level is to find the cheapest item to make, then pop scrolls/elixirs/wear artisan clothes, in order to get the highest exp bonuses

for processing and crafting, pop before you process or craft

for processing, specifically, you can pop a commissioner adventure exp scroll for a nice 'burst' of exp when accepting

[iron tree]

Will scalerunner/Iguana show up when you get to JM?

[woven stone]

Scalerunner = iguana. You can find huntable versions of iguana in jundark and ocean

If you look through the professions menu in-game, you can see what materials are required for each craft

Use the Ashes Codex map, filtering for huntables, to find their general spawn locations:
https://ashescodex.com/map

As a side note, certain animals like birds/wolves/otters/rams/etc., all have a 10% chance to spawn as a huntable variant upon being killed. Thats why folks farm low level wolves and grems in Riverlands

[iron tree]

But I can’t see it in the station tho

Iquana/scalerunner that is

[woven stone]

You have to be in a town with the upgraded buildings

"N" -> Buildings tab -> Agriculture building -> see which upgrades are needed. Depending on server, some places might have the upgrade

[iron tree]

I’m in Joeva tho.. biggest city on Loth I believe

[novel surge]

Really do wish there were some better spots. There being only 2-3 primary locations and they are like level 3 is kinda meh

[woven stone]

pretty sure if your server has the upgrade for alpine crate mules that you can make scalerunner

[woven stone]

Look at the map and click on each city. It will show you buildings they have upgraded. This is where you'll start to have to travel to particular locations for specific crafts

[novel surge]

Which mats are you looking for? Just made a character and looks like you should have access to moonspool oil but you would not have access to any of the JM vendor recipes

You can't buy LM vendor mats because Mira has the carpentry upgrade while Joeva has the lumber mill upgrade

[night cliff]

what is the easiest way to level tailor 1-10 i was trying to make rucksacks but cant find where to buy packwrights

[novel surge]

Packwrights are from the starting vendors at like avens/briar

Or a textile mill

[night cliff]

ok thank you, do you recommend building those to level 1-10 seems like its the easiest

[waxen glade]

if you down cert a prof does it keep the levels you earned above the cap?

[maiden pawn]

No. You will have to re-earn the levels above cap. So if you are level 12 apprentice hunting and you demote, you’ll be level 10 novice. You can immediately retrain back to apprentice, but you’ll still only be level 10.

[heavy pulsar]

guys is tailoring 29 mean the better version JM bags?

[novel surge]

Could you elaborate

[novel surge]

Big leather

[slim nova]

like we have better bags in tailoring that for me in my server not unlocked yet

will lv29 building unlock it?

for example spoils/quality minning bag

[novel surge]

I think I am confused by the level 29 part is all unless you are referring to the GM upgrade. Not sure though, don't think we have any info on the alternate bags

[slim nova]

ah ok

just mainly tryin to figure out how to get the other greyey bags

[rose geode]

JM tailoring has 2 different bag recipes you have to learn if that is what you are asking.

It is dependent on the city upgrade for the Textile Mill if I had to guess for what shows up on the NPC inside of the mill.

[clear tree]

What server are you on?

[woven stone]

Two radiant rings, best I can do ya for

Different flavor of damage, but still "bonus weapon" damage

Yeah.. It's like how the cape for every armor set mismatches the armor type

[slim nova]

Lotharia

[slim nova]

I dont know if i'm completely lost or you just simply not understanding me. Upgraded tailoring enabled 1 kind of jm bags yes, its been out for 2 weeks or so. Now the biggger idk whats the name of it (tailoring 29 they call it) will it provide new bags? The other one when you press "P"... because the master tailoring building only give us 1 kind, will the lv29 tailoring give us the the second version of jm bags? For example the spoils/quality minning bag. This question is really only to ppl who played alpha before and actually can answer me

[sinful patio]

Seeking any and all information on briarhold recipe drop locations

[rose geode]

There are Novice Satchels (lvl 1-10) which there is 1 per trade, Apprentice Bags(11-20) 1 per trade, and Journeyman bags(21-30) 2 variations per trade. If a city upgrades to show stuff higher than Journeyman you can see them but cannot make them because the raw materials for Master and Grand Master are not in the game yet. I assume you are referring to the 2 variations of the Journeyman bags which my prior posting I believe answers your question which is how to unlock the 2nd version of the Journeyman bag. Which is the city has to have the upgrades available to unlock the variation of the recipe you will find it on the Tailoring Vendor inside of the Textile Mill when its available to buy.

[slim nova]

Yeah and is that upgrade whats called tailoring 29?

Thats what they call it in game most ppl, so i dont know the actual correct name but i heard they upgrading tailoring to lv29

[clear tundra]

settlement specific marketplaces feels real bad FYI

i would do anything to not have to go to joeva but if you want to sell anything you have to ensure

even if you log into the game near Joeva you are plagued with the worst lag/rubberbanding

[clear tree]

I believe yes but its more in reference to the fact that it unlocks the ability to craft lvl29 tailoring gear

[rose geode]

Tailoring lvl 29 is still Journeyman skill, at lvl 30 you can advance to Master and 40 to Grand Master

You can craft Journeyman bags at lvl 20 when you go to an NPC to upgrade your Profession Certificate to Journeyman lvl.

Now if people are saying the 2nd recipe unlocks at lvl 29 then you already have your answer, get lvl 29 tailoring and then buy it.

[novel surge]

People are apparently calling the GM tailoring upgrade level 29 since that allows creation of the item level 29 tailoring gear

Although I will say I have never heard someone call it tailor 29 or level 29 tailoring or anything

Is Moonbell flower completely useless?
I cannot find any crafting that uses it in some form. And i cannot use em to make creates.. are they vendor loot?

[worldly zealot]

Defintely not. They are used for crafting bows and stuff also. Ppl pay good money for high quality moons

[pale pine]

what do you process em into, i can only find the moonbell dust, but i cant find any recipee using the dust..

[worldly zealot]

I believe bows take moon prepared yardage

Some of them at least

[pale pine]

Ty I’ll do more checking

[ocean umbra]

Press P I think and go to carpentry and you should be able to go thru all the bows and see what they need to craft

[pale pine]

yeah i see now, thornstrike and glorybound bows use it, thanks!

[dreamy spear]

yeah I did

[jolly falcon]

What are my metalworkers using.. paella or the forge stew?

[pulsar frigate]

I find paella more often on market place

[jolly falcon]

me too

I just wonder what's better

[novel surge]

I havent seen any stat differences

So it seems like no reason to not grab generic

[austere whale]

How are people finding braidwood trees?? I see like 1 a week and the market is flooded wit hthem

[slim nova]

do fisherman care about speed? or just quality?

[floral yarrow]

Is this is availble in game and wer its drops? For now i farming in Forge Forge Wright says this boss dropping recipe.

[swift leaf]

Are Sandstone emblems dropping or are those recipes uncraftable?

[winter wigeon]

enchanting scrolls of the indestructable.. they require 25 (?!?) heroic enchanted coral rune... is that for real? i've only ever seen uncommon runes. how am i supposed to get 25 of them??

[tulip cosmos]

Any good cacao farm spots?

[torn axle]

Can u do Elixir of process (does it exist?) + commissions scroll of process before you start big husbandry batch - to get BIG XP ?

[sacred chasm]

Is Rootforged armor available in this phase ? Ive never seen a recipe available,

[versed flare]

Mobs in the desert drop it

[mighty jetty]

What if this game has multiple paths for crafting items

Like multiple ways to craft 1 piece of gear

[mighty jetty]

Like u could do commissions or you could pvp do a crate idk

[swift leaf]

We been farming desert for 2 nights, haven't seen a single one drop.

[cosmic shard]

Is there some way that one of the nodes can get the advanced cookhouse up

Not being able to get the advanced hunting tools is really aggravating

[radiant ingot]

you should probably ask that in your realm's chat channel so the right people see it

[cosmic shard]

Yeah it's on shol

I just posted that they're also thank you

[true condor]

Question. If crafting quality effects the stats on crafts. Do you have to craft an artisan shirt, then use that shirt to craft another artisan shirt etc etc to hit cap?

[loud cloak]

Quality ain't that potent

[open dock]

Can anyone in a big guild confirm/deny for me if [Recipe: Elixir of Alchemy] exists?

I have not seen the elixir or the recipe anywhere and I've been searching for weeks.

[versed flare]

I picked up 2 Sandbation Emblems after a grind run in Sunhaven and Sandsquall, but I don’t remember exactly where I got them

[torn axle]

Animal Husbandry doesnt seem worth it atm. Sucks when i have used quite alot of gold just to reach Artisan, no way im going to journeyman 🙁

[lucid crypt]

Animal husbandry only worth early on in a wipe

[rocky valley]

Do JM cooking and alchemy recipes only drop off certain mobs?

[low mason]

Any good spindlevein farm spot? Didn't see any after last update...

[thick acorn]

thought i would see how many tree i need to harvest to make 175 blue+ dried wood im currently at 7400 wood and like maybe half way there

at like 500 quality and spoils

[vast compass]

Hello, what armor and jewellery set are user by tank level 25 please ?

[jovial linden]

What do you need 175+ blue boards for?

[thick acorn]

lvl 29 bow

[jovial linden]

Are you trying to make epic or something? Seems excessive

Nvm you don't need blue boards even for epic

[thick acorn]

was aiming for epic but that doesnt seem like it happen

[novel surge]

Yeah you have to do lego for the other mats and can do white boards

[torn axle]

Im now apprentice in mining and lumberjack, is it worth it to upgrade my gathering tools for more quality etc. or doesnt that work ingame right now?

[magic merlin]

You'll want to upgrade your tools in order to gather from the apprentice level resource (mining slate, for example). Can't gather from them with novice tools. This'll apply if you upgrade to Journeyman too, need to get journeyman tools to gather the journeyman nodes. The better tools also generally give you better quality bonuses, so it's worth it

[torn axle]

i keep hearing random stuff about that quality bonus, if it even works etc. so im alittle bit confused

[austere whale]

How are the same people always selling Epic / Legendary Braid, Cacao Dragon trees etc. I'm 40 lumber jacking and i barely ever see those trees, and when i do see them the best i get is uncommon, but then i see the world chat and market the same people constantly selling those high rarity woods. Pre buff im 850 quality (including 150 from guild) and post buff im at 1300 minimum, upwards of 1500 (depend on heroic or epic gatherers food). Even wit hthose stats I barely get epic ash or oak tree and never got legendary since i reached this high of quality

[magic merlin]

I'll preface by saying I'm not super well read/informed about it, but as I understand the quality stat, it's basically just extra chance to get higher quality mats when gathering. Base chance to get uncommon/rare/heroic/epic/legendary may be like 30/10/5/2/1% (numbers pulled out of thin air), but with a lot of quality you might add on a few % to each of those. So just better chances to get better stuff.
In crafting, it is tied to the quality of the crafted item vs the quality of mats used to craft it. With low/no quality, you'd need pretty much all heroic mats to make a heroic item. With lots of quality, you can make a heroic item with some heroic, some rare, maybe even some uncommon. So in crafting, more quality means less expensive mats consumed for a good craft.

[supple bramble]

For those working with Hunting/Tanning/Leatherworking... please review my feedback and give suggestions/comments.

[hardy marsh]

Why would I get higher quality fish in one zone vs another with the same stats and buffs? I usually fish in the desert and get decent results but fishing in Joeva today with bad results.

[dreamy spear]

will this go heroic?

[uneven gate]

Nope, rare. You need an uncommon otter carcass

[dreamy spear]

have you tried with common?

[uneven gate]

The numbers say it'll be rare.

[dreamy spear]

which calculator?

[uneven gate]

Search around look at different calculators it'll give you numbers you need.

Aocarmory & others

[dreamy spear]

ashes codex was correct before and somebody ruined it since the game outcome was misleading

this goes rare and since in game shows the outcome as green I bet they ruined the calculator.

[magic merlin]

This is what I'm seeing on the Ashes codex calculator

Just as Cinere said

[dreamy spear]

same, but I don't trust it anymore, try my screenshot recipe, it goes rare not uncommon

[azure wolf]

dont use the codex calculator, use https://www.ashesforge.com/crafting-calculator for gear and use aocarmory for proccessed things like that

codex is not current

[dreamy spear]

aocarmory is the same

this goes rare not uncommon

or blue hide and heroic chip

[magic merlin]

In your original in-game screenshot, you had epic otter hide, yeah? Why are you using uncommon in the calculators? Am I missing something?

[dreamy spear]

I was asking if somebody had tried that recipe since in game outcome as well as calculators are hallucinating according to the common/uncommon/epic craft.

[magic merlin]

Ahhh ok

[dreamy spear]

I'll try it once I get spare mats

[lucid crypt]

bunch of grave lily spawn points, if anyone is still struggling to find them

[grizzled anchor]

Anyone know where Mistglean recipes drop?

[fluid crest]

Can I do market commodity crates in caravans? Or just mules?

[fickle compass]

and another phase , another lvl 50 armorsmith from working on peoples gear alone lol

[magic merlin]

You can transport any crate by foot, mule, or caravan

[fluid crest]

Great! Thanks!

[clear tree]

Is there any difference between citizen commodity and market commodity crates as far as the reward?

[atomic mist]

Is leatherworking as bad as it seems ?

[calm hawk]

big yes

[loud cloak]

Worse even

Almost as bad as these funny meme ban lists they put out while still missing some of the day 1 bots

We got gathering bots out here hitting lvl 25 and RMT groups just being blatant with no repercussions

[loud cloak]

Have you tried making leather?

[loud cloak]

Leather bro, not hides

Its 11 corpses to make 5 leather

Meanwhile it's 15 copper to make 5 ingots, the comparable metalworking equivalent

1 Copper sitting at 20c on my server

1 carcass at 20s

Literally 100x more expensive

Do math? What do you want me to tell you

1 corpse is 5 hide, 5 more corpses to make tanned hide, 5 more corpses to make leather

I'm fairly confident that's not only for grems

Yes thanks for proving me correct

To make 5 leather I said bro

I literally even explained it

[loud cloak]

Right here

[loud cloak]

^^^^

My server prices, that's like 3g including shop materials and processing fees to make 5 common wolf leather

I can make 5 epic copper ingots for 3g

Do you not see the problem here

Aight you're broken for sure

I'm not the repair guy

Gl with that

[loud cloak]

Uh

Can you rephrase that?

Do you mean does fishing quality make a difference in fish?

Because you aren't fishing for poles

[loud cloak]

He deleted his message that's wild

[novel surge]

Lmao

But yeah current implementation of hunt/lw is awful

Especially since you need tanning for all 3 armor types too

Like, what do you mean I need 300ish carcs to tailor a light armor set

[loud cloak]

a set? best i can do you for 300 is 1.5 pieces

[obsidian hinge]

Ok, i give up - where in the name of Steven do I find a Korn'brolach Fir in the anvils ? There's a million of everything else!

Honestly - going round in circles here ... shudder

[ebon hamlet]

What specifically has to happen, on the server Resna, for a tailor to get access to version 2 of the journeyman bags?

[novel surge]

I dont know if there is any info on the alt bags yet

[thick acorn]

50 lumberjacking should let u track JM trees 😛

this cacao hunt getting old 😄

[jovial linden]

There is supposed ot be artisan skill trees, there's buttons for survey pylons already in the game, etc., I'm sure that will be an option eventually

[proud vapor]

Here does Stoneglen Emblems drop ?

[leaden rose]

Any scribes that can give me pointers? I've spent so much gold on paper, still not quite level 10, novice scrolls not selling even at 1.5 silver (technically a loss)

[proud vapor]

Are You useing commision scrolls of crafting experiance?

You can make around 90 scrolls with one 5 min scroll of crafting experiance.

[leaden rose]

Ugh I was using the novice ones I crafted. I'm an idiot lol.

Thanks! I still think paper costs too much!

[sleek merlin]

are some of the elixirs still disabled??

[ebon hamlet]

What specifically has to happen, on the server Resna, for a tailor to get access to version 2 of the journeyman bags?

[languid nacelle]

Is quality rating of food and elixirs on ptr still same as live or did it get lowered? Thanks

[tardy ginkgo]

does anyone see Recipe: Elixir of Alchemy on live servers?

[rugged gorge]

pretty sure it doesnt exist right now

[orchid quiver]

Has anyone had any luck on thornstride emblems dropping, if so where?

[dawn nest]

Any [Recipe: Mirageborn Powered Great Mace] floating around on Resna for sale, haven't seen any on market

[cunning pier]

does quality not do anything for gathering?

[radiant ingot]

Increases chance that it’ll proc a rarity higher, if it was close by the underlying math. Needs to be a focus if you care about the effects; Just having a small amount on some single piece of related gear is likely negligible, to help put it into perspective. Keep in mind that with all the tuning and bug fixing they’re doing, the effects could have rumored periods of time where players swear it does nothing lol

[remote kelp]

what is a base number to have for processing quality in a profession to increase rarity output?

[latent veldt]

Is barrel cactus not implemented yet

[worldly zealot]

Depends on what rarity to what rarity

And how many things you are processing
