Finding Ingredients
Production skills require massive amounts of raw materials to use. These materials
are sometimes called ingredients or components. Many can be acquired by
gathering the necessary resources using the associated gathering skill. You can also
acquire the necessary ingredients by buying them from other players. When
making higher-level skill items, you’ll have to get different ingredients anyway, as
these blueprints often require a wide range of components.
Acquiring Blueprints
The blueprints to make an item are called different things
depending on what trade skill they fall under: plans,
schematics, formulae, recipes, patterns, and more. When you
first learn a production trade skill, you are provided with a
few blueprints. Most other blueprints are bought from an
appropriate trade skill vendor. Blueprints you buy from
vendors have a minimum skill level before you can purchase them.
While many blueprints only come from vendors, some blueprints can also be found
as rare loot from monsters, as quest rewards, or purchased from other players. All
blueprints, except for the ones you get when you first learn a skill, have a required
skill level before you can use them. Blueprints found as loot from monsters must be
scribed manually into your trade skill blueprint list by right-clicking on them from
your inventory.
Once acquired, the blueprint is added to your blueprint list for the trade skill.
