I have all materials, including an Enchanted Aspect’s Dreaming Crest, to get my Elemental Lariat recrafted from 463 to 486 and I’m planning to send this to a recrafter once I find one.
I have a question about setting the minimum quality in the recraft order: can I set this to max level 5 (orange)? Or do I have to set it to minimum quality of level 4 (green/blue Diamond icon)? I remember something vaguely from a couple of months ago that crafters couldn’t finish the order if I had set quality to max and I want to know if that’s still the case. Thanks in advance.
Crafters I ordered recraft from offered two possibilities:
Minimum quality level 5, but for a big commission. It was ~150k for bow in s2 for me.
Minimum quality level 4, but free recraft attempts with you providing mats until it procs level 5 for much lower commission. It was ~30k for bow in s2 for me.
And yeah, not all crafters are able to do guaranteed level 5. I guess it requires maxed crafting skill in this particular gear type + best crafting gear + inspiration. Some of them could only do level 4 with possible proc of level 5.
If you set it to 5 it’s pretty impossible for the crafter to do much with it. I can pretty much rank 5 everything but if someone puts the rank 5 requirement on it, I can’t pick up the order. We recently had that in guild and both main crafters are capped in the profession with all knowledge points and enchanted/bis stat crafting gear
Yeah it’s to force us into using the insights… I tell people to pop it to r4, so I can proc the max item level. Or if they do set r5 and it uses expensive mats and I’m feeling lazy I’ll just use an insight for some fast gold
At this stage most JC including myself can craft the Lariat at Rank5 without you having to set the minimum quality.
The difference being that if you enforce rank5 it does drop inspiration slightly which could result in a few recrafts or force the JC to use an illustrious insight. At this stage of the game insight should be dime a dozen for the crafter. So it should not make a difference in price either.
Hello everyone, I have had it recrafted with the quality set to lvl4 (green/blue) and the recrafter gave the Lariat back with it at max level, which I’m obviously very happy with. Nonetheless it’s handy to know how everything exactly works and your replies helped with that so thanks and thumbs up
The main dependencies is if you have an embellishment or not (I know you wrote lariat). Embellished items require higher skill and for a maxed out crafter you need to use insight in order to guarantee max rank. Some will do it for less of a cost than others. Items without embellishments will often be able to guarantee max rank for a maxed out crafter.
