    Yeah, I'm not actually sure what that buff is supposed to do. I've been doing the quests with my CUL (started at 38 I think, 42 or nearly there by now) and it hasn't been a problem, but if the quality requirements get high it might be (but I'll just use a level 50 to craft with). I think it says that it brings the recipe down to your level, but all the recipes are very, very low level to begin with....

    You'll want better gear or a better rotation then. You can still easily get 100% HQ on every item at the 4th tier. If you're still having trouble, remember Byregot's, Careful Synth 2, Waste Not and Steady Hand. They should make pretty much anything trivial.

    Wat he said. It is really easy crafting this stuff unless ofcourse you start doing these quests with only level 1 crafters. Even the current tier of crafts only require 1x increase of quality to get to 100% (after applying some buffs) and 2x increase of progress, What I do i use my level 50 goldsmith to make the items and use my low level culinarian to turn in the quests for the exp.

    This is news for me. Might be interesting to note. Majority of my DoH already near fully melded with i70s though, so I don't have this problem yet. Maybe on the 5th quest tier I might actually start seeing this problem... :?

    I think the buff works like a level-sync for crafters (without touching the skills).

    Hmm what I found on my lvl27 wvr/bsm(and the only other classes I have is 50 ltw/cpt) is that they designed the crafts around some very basic and specific rotations. Once you figure those out for that specific item it's always the same. It's mostly figuring out those rotations that cases some grief at start.

    Example when I first wanted I went my usual rotation for hq and wow out of CP instantly... ok... let's adjust... now I mostly just go steady hands(and waste not if I have CP to spare) then basic/standard touches until full and usually need one or two careful synths or basic synths to finish it off. In some cases I will use steady hand+waste not and it will be mostly the same.

    It took me quite a few tries to figure it out on the trusted level crafts. But now that I have them it's easy to do.

    The facilities give unique buffs that are required by the recipe so it isn't possible.

    Yeah, it sounds like it works the way Ingenuity used to, where if the the recipe level is lower than your level it'd actually raise the recipe level on you.

    I think it's a nice touch, stuff like level-syncing makes it feel like serious content rather than just an afterthought and as someone who mains crafter I love that we've now got a quest line outside our class quests.

    Yes you can - as the timer is 4 minutes I always manage to complete multiply crafts and run back to tribe camp while buffs are still up and I do have multiply buffs up at the same time.
