To organize your recipes: A small but effective idea

[chime85]

Howdy people of the forums, I hope you are all enjoying your easter.

Anyway, I was looking at the Lodestone at some of the crafting items available to make. I realised that unless you research online these items, it is very difficult to keep track of them.

I was considering, Why not have a Recipe book to make previous Synths easier to find again.

I know they have something similar already. Awarded Synths and Synth history. But these are rather disorganized and the history tab is cleaned after only a short time.

Instead of constantly having it re-review the Lodestone, or other sites. Why not have it so that when you Synth something for the first time, it remains in your book? EG: once you have an Ash cane, you can look it up again in your book for future reference? This goes for awarded recipes also.

To make things a little easier, why not have seperate tabs for seperate trades, ie: Carpenters as one tab and Goldsmiths under another.

I think this would be a great addition to the "of the hand" classes as it will save them either writing these recipes down in rl or re-checking the websites every time they need to synth something once again.

Also, it would give synther classes a great chance to exchange ideas and swap recipes with each other.

Any more ideas on this? would love to hear what others think of this idea

Being a member of the Disciple of the Hand myself, I can only support your idea for a true book of recipes. I've been waiting since people started submitting this idea, that is, since September (yes, launch). Hopefully with the UI redesign that we are supposed to get at one point, this will be included. Hopefully.

I agree. If they are going to change XY and Z about the UI, they could at least set the ground work for this.

However, I do understand there are many other aspects of the game which need to be addressed more urgently. But perhaps a push in that dirrection whilst they are re-working on the UI would be greatly appreciated.

What I would rather see is being able to make a sequence of the same recipe, so you don't have to spend time putting the same materials in the inventory over and over again.

you dont have to, it remembers the last 8 recipes you did (might be did on that job) so you just hit the recipes tab and select you re last synth. its pretty handy really.

But yeah , a recipe list that has blanks for missing recipes, and maybe records your hqs would be cool for collectors and usefull for keeping track of all the recipes you learned. I thought they said they were going to try to make this happen, dunno if they changed thier minds.

Oh okay thanks. I didn't know that.

I just think they need a 3rd tab A-Z of all recipes either learned or Tried.

I'm sure they plan to do something like this eventually.
