Can you please stop putting CUL mats on blue scrips?

I haven't timed myself but crafting marron glaze puts me very high up there for blue scrips. It's not available everyday and I do try to craft it when it's on a bonus but they're very easy, very fast to craft with three ingredients. The only special things you have to buy outright is the cooking sherry but those are really cheap. If you do favor gathering for astral lumber then you can pile up the birch sap. After that, all you need is those chestnuts.

If you need to hand in something requiring bouillon cubes as your first blue scrip craft you're not going to have much luck though! That's what I was getting at. I believe the first CUL blue scrip collectable is Emerald Soup at lvl56, so you are required to obtain blue scrips to buy the mats to allow you to craft your first blue scrip hand in. The only other way is to level past your first blue scrip collectable to the next, craft that & get scrips to allow you to make the lower level blue scrip hand in. It's ludicrous.

Another problem with this I forgot to mention.

Literally none of the 3 star foods are selling on my server, due to them not being worth it. Spiced Cider goes for 40k a pop, while golden apples go for 50k due to being blue scrip hand ins. This is terribly unbalanced, we haven't had a Spiced Cider sell on my server since 3/21, and that's by far the most useful food in the master book!

Maybe if they yielded 3 a synth like the 2.0 4 star crafts it would be okay, but currently this is horrible for anyone who took the time to gear a CUL.

There's a problem here. Fix it SE please.

A dev post already addressed the concerns over ALC and CUL yields for the starred difficulty crafts. I'd expect to see Drac potions, Max potions, and 1* and above foods being increased to yield 3 per craft in 3.3. It's just mind boggling that it's taken them so god damned long to do this since the 2.X series food and potions were 3 yield by default.

Well for someone only levelling CUL all scripts blue and red are more painful to do.

Each CUL craft yield one item only, but require usually twice the mats or intermediate crafts than other classes. When you add blue script mats to the equation it's not so fun.
CUL crafts reward you half or a third of blue/red scripts compared to other crafting classes.

Doing your weekly red scripts takes then at least 2 to 3 times the time as CUL.
And it's the only class which requires blue script mats to do some of the blue scripts collectibles.

So what, culinarians are the forsaken craft class ?
The class-who-must-not-be-used ?
Why should it be more painful to be culinarian only ?
I though Heavensward was about specialisation !

Just do a temple leve and get like 60 cubes in one go, problem solved.

edit: like this:

That leve is 6 turn-ins. Quick synth 12 sammiches without any real significant ingredients, and bam.

Depends on your luck on leves rewards I suppose ^^
Just saying culinarian shouldn't have to do this, other classes don't.

No luck, just persistence resetting them with 1-leve cost battlecraft leves.

Leveling cul post 50+ is easy! It's easy, easy, easy, easy! It was, far and way, the easiest one to level. I put it off for last and was utterly surprised at how easy it was. I'm so not kidding. 1 to 50 was so hard. I hated it with an unholy passion and saw the blue scrip thing too, thinking it was unfair too. Then ... then I stumbled on the path to glory ... or, rather, lvl 60 anyway.

What you need to do is quite simple. Save up a ton of leves, forgo leveling with the blue scrips, and make two recipes. Make the ishgardian muffins for the leve that opens when you're level 52 and keep doing that turn in leve until you hit, oh, level 58 or so when you have access to the birch syrup leve and do those. The muffins only have 3 ingredients and are super quick to make (two that are low level.) Birch syrup only has one simple ingredient (the sap.) You can literally just get a ton of sap and go afk before mass turn-ins FTW.

There's your problem. Do yourself a favor and level the others up too. It is the same mini game - add Progress until you are one away from finishing, then add as much Quality as possible, then finish. This has several benefits : you can craft anything they want for scrip, you can craft your own gear rather than buying finished pieces (it's often cheaper), and you will have access to the cross class skills.
