Any chance we get this? It happened with Dungeon Tokens, Gold, Karma, FotM level, WvW rank, Skins. It would solve some problems like people learning a recipe on a character that doesn’t has the crafting discipline, having to switch between characters when you want to craft something and having to keep alts just because they leveled crafting to 500 or learned rare recipes than you can’t get anymore(I have 2 alts with 4 lvl500 crafts and some rare recipes that I don’t use anymore but I can’t delete them because of that reason).

It could be with a new gemstore item or just added to the additional crafting license, and people who use crafting for leveling could just not buy it or maybe change the way crafting gives experience.

Hell… maybe even a consumable that let’s me move the leveled crafts to another character lol… anything so I can get rid of those 2 alts xD.

Since you are willing to pay the gem cost to transfer crafting from one char to another and since you are wiling to delete and relevel, why not just use the gems you would have used for that to buy new character slots and relevel them.

Advantages:
1) the cost to you will probably be the same or cheaper (as it’s unlikely to be less than 800 gems for one crafting transfer).
2) those 2 chars can be used for storage, around 160 extra slots. (As opposed to 30 slots for one bank tab).
3) ANet doesn’t have to rework the crafting system.

a lot of recipes you simply can’t get anymore. superior rune of exuberance, for example.
plus a lot of recipes cost account-bound things like laurels and karma. You just can’t replace those without months invested. If it were just gold, I would of transfered several crafts months ago.
I would also like to see either account-wide recipe unlocks, or ability to transfer a craft from one character to another. I would rather the account unlocks, even though that would likely be more expensive; it would also solve the problem of people complaining about learning a hard-to-get recipe on one character by accident.

crafting.craft leveling should stay as is, recipes though should be account bound.

Would be nice if they had a section in hero panel that said “recipes”, and we could get a drop down list of buyable/learnable recipes that are grey out if we don’t have them. (with a tool tip of where they’re gotten from!.) and white if we do have them. With the crafts they’re for and materials needed.
