Guild Wars 2

I am having an issue using refined ingredients when cooking. They will not deposit into my collection and I cannot figure out how to include them in the discovery process.

There are only slots for basic ingredients. If you check your collection tab you will see there are no slots for refined items.

As to the other, not sure what the problem is. Some need a recipe that you buy from a vender. Or they may need more than one type of refined ingredient. You can always wiki an ingredient and see what is needed.

also make sure you have all the difficulty tier boxes checked when trying to discover something; some won’t work unless you do.

…might have happened to me yesterday.
