Crafting (Switching between crafters)

[Ed_N_Ants]

I am trying to get all my crafters to level 50 and when you are trying to make something you need to get crafts from other disciples... I don't have a problem with this and think that is a good idea, however my problem is actually the process of switching between disciples... Currently you can look through other disciple classes and see what they can craft but when you try and craft the item you get an error stating that you can't craft that item because you are not that disciple class... In order to switch to that class you need to quit crafting go back to the menu, switch your character to whatever disciple you need for that craft and then switch back to the original in order to finish creating the original craft... The thing that I would like to see changed is that we can switch to whatever disciple from another disciple... You give us the opportunity to see what they can craft but there is no option to switch to that class... Its very frustrating when trying to create an item and then log out of crafting switching disciples and then crafting an item, then switching back to the original disciple to finish the item...

Are you placing your gearsets on a hotbar? What I do, to make switching easier, is to have vertical hotbars set up on the right hand side of my screen. On those hotbars are icons for all the classes I have (currently 15-16, I can't remember). When I need to switch classes, I simply hit the corresponding number and BAM, switched.

In case you're not sure how to do it, go into Character > Gearsets and drag the gearset icon to the hotbar.

You'll still have to stop crafting but at least this method eliminates the step of having to go into the Character screen every time.
