Been browsing around looking at prices and I noticed the info it gives is not correct on a few iteams that I looked at for example……

Snowflake Orichalcum Ring
Shopping list
# Ingredient
10 Orichalcum Ore 2.61 silver 26.10 silver
1 Exquisite Snowflake 37.49 silver 37.49 silver

crafting cost:
63.59 silver

then it shows the recipe to craft it witch is wrong…
it takes 5 Exquisite Snowflake not one…
so the crafting cost will be 5 times that amount…
and the profit it says is wrong also..

so far just browsing found 10 other things that are wrong…

what are your thoughts on this…..

My thought is, why are you posting this here? Tell it to those that handle that site instead.

He pulls his recipe data from gw2db, I believe. So if there are inconsistencies/incorrect recipes in their database they will also trickle to spidy. Another thing to keep in mind on his prices is that the site uses a crawler to index all of the items on the TP and because of this there is generally a slight lag on items with large price fluctuation.

The best thing you can do is cross-reference with guildwarstrade and pray that Anet releases their API they promised pre-release.

Cuz they changed the recipe of jewelery after ppl exploited them. But gw2spidy has not corrected that. Maybe they r on a break.

problem is not really with the recipes ppl who can craft exotic gear should know it takes 5 not 1 but that one is just an example thier are others that are wrong too that are unrelated to the wintersday event…

the biggest problem is the profit area thier are tons of stuff that are just wrong saying it gives more profit than it really does…

OR..it gives profit where it says it does not…..

yes the charts are right but who would take the time to search the charts when they are thier just to check the profit mergen of the iteams

Yea you have to do that recipe manually. The reason is because it came out as only needing one exquisite, but that was completely kitten if they wanted to keep commendations in the game (3 exotic trinkets → commendations → 7 black lion keys). Normally the cheapest trinket is Candy Corn Ori Amulet, for 2g. With this, they were worth 60s. So ANET put a pause on the recipe, fixed it, removed the pause, but gw2spidy has not updated the recipe to reflect this. They are all going for about -40s profit (their crafting rate is close to their sell rate), so don’t bother making them.

the winterday crafting recipe was just an example. I also understand that GW2spidy uses a differnt site for the recipe. Every crafter knows when something gets changed soon after it does..but GWspidy does the profit margen and percentage witch thier are alot of wrong profit margen on GWSpidy….That is my main concern….so should be the comunity that uses it
