Guild Wars 2

Recipes that are available on vendors do not offer any details as to what is made from them, other than the title of the item. This is keeping me from buying them. What is required to make the item? What are the stats of the item made?

In before “look it up on the wiki.” Sorry, no.

I second this. It could prevent some frustration and allow players to make informed choices before potentially wasting hard-earned resources.

For example: A friend just used a ton of karma to buy the Mad King cook recipes, only to find out that they all require a ‘candy corn glaze’; meaning their useless after the event (unless he spends time of the next week mining raw candy corn nodes to stock up). Other than that, we’re loving the event.

Suggestion: On-mouse or right-click menu option to show a recipes ingredients list and/or the final product (including stats, if any) would be perfect!
