Guild Wars 2

Any1 knows what happened to them? They all dropped like 1000% in one day?

The real question is why they were so valued to begin with when crafting them was time gated and eventually just playing would get you most of them. The dev blog post probably killed any chance these things had at being valuable.

Yeah, I think that the fact that ascended armor and weapons is right around the corner killed he market for exotic recipes. Especially since we don’t know that the charged quartz crystals won’t be necessary / useful in crafting ascended gear.

They are a high supply, low demand item.

They may be valuable someday to a collector who missed out on them and who wants a full recipe list, but you can expect them to continue to tank as the event goes on. They may get a slight bump right at the end of the event when the new supply disappears, but it won’t be enough to make them a valuable item.

I’d like to know why there are 42 recipes to be learned and yet there are only 4 or 5 “common” ones that come from the Zephyr Sanctum supply crates. Or finding a kite basket anywhere in the world and not only getting crystals but also an exotic recipe… you check inventory, move mouse over the recipe and it says “You already know this recipe!” in big red letters.

awww…..

Such a let-down. More access to lesser-known recipes would be good.

Gotten only three duplicates so far, one worth next to nothing, under 2s, one selling for around 10s and one earlier in the week I sold for 1g (now 80-90s).

I’ve got around 20 duplicates of the Insignia, the Jewel, and the Inscription recipes for a total of 60 duplicates (not counting a handful of other duplicates).

Still missing about 20 recipes. Too bad they don’t have a vendor where I could trade in these useless recipe duplicates for a recipe I want.
