Remove crafting specialist?

[Zodiar]

Specialists should not affect GC turn in at all. All it does is boost your stats and allows you to craft certain things on the patch they release on.

Actually, no. If you are a specialist, then you are given things in the GC list to turn in that you need books to get the Recipes from. There's a mark at the right end of the line showing it's a specialist recipe and if you don't have the book, then you won't have the recipe. Since I don't have books 'cause I can't figure out how to do HQ/Collectable quality items, I'm stuck. And Yep, Kidria, it's an issue if, like me, you can't figure out the rotations, or don't have the gear to do HQ/Collectable crafting. I'll check with the NPC in Foundation - By the Airship platform. BTW, why are these NPCs scattered all over the place - Mordona, Foundation central, Foundation Airship platform... SQX Just pick a place please.

Those items are all found in the Master recipe books, which are available to all crafters regardless of specialties.

There are only a handful of recipes that require Specialist to make, and none of those items are on the GC or custom delivery lists. They're all primal related items (weapons, bardings, housing items, orchestrion rolls).

Since you're on Coeurl, I'll try to catch you in game and help figure out what's causing the issue for you.
