Is it intended for items types that gave multiples in ARR to give one in Heavensward?

I have noticed that the new recipes for potions and fishing lures only give one at a time instead of 3 like similar recipes did in the past. The interesting thing is if your Grand Company asks for one of these new items they still ask for 3 as if it was intended for the recipes to make items like the Grade 1 Dissolvents in groups of 3.

Could be a bug. I'd say check over those forums at confirmed bugs and see if it is there and if not send it their way.

I'm guessing not a bug. Just about everything you craft in Heavensward takes a lot more ingredients than older recipes; consumables and lures add to the fun by making you craft multiple times for the same yield. Don't get me wrong; most crafters would HAPPILY use three times the ingredients if it meant they could make three potions at once, but I still don't think it's a bug. SE wants crafters working three times as hard when producing these consumables.

In the case of Lures, to be fair, getting three was generally a waste, since fish hardly ever snapped your line and made off with your lure (with a few exceptions involving certain fish and certain lures - hello, Gigant Clam!).

Basically crafting became 5-9 times harder than before, you usually need 3 times an item instead of 1 to craft some items ( skin, gems, lolsacred cloth ) and then you need more or harder items to craft the complete item, draconian potions are kind of a joke.
