What you’ll leave with
The quantities for your next batch, ready to compare with your bags and bank.
Before you start
- A recipe you want to make
- How many times you want to craft it
Choose your recipe
Find your profession and open its materials helper. Choose a recipe your character can make. The ingredients shown are the materials used for one crafting attempt.
You only need the materials for your chosen project, not everything the profession might use.
Choose how many times to craft
Enter a small number of attempts in the helper. It multiplies each ingredient for you. For example, if one attempt needs 2 pieces of a material, 5 attempts need 10 pieces.
Planning by crafting attempts avoids guessing how many ingredients a batch will consume.
Check what you already have
Compare the list with your bags and bank. If the plan needs 10 pieces and you already have 4, you only need 6 more. Copy the list to keep it handy while you collect the rest.
The total needed for a craft is different from the amount you still need to find.
Keep your first batch small
Before spending a lot, confirm the recipe and quantities in game. Make your first batch, then check what you want to do next. If you are leveling a profession, allow for the possibility that some attempts won’t give a skill-up.
You can adjust your next batch with what you’ve learned instead of being stuck with an oversized shopping list.
