Getting to 400
Yup, as DeumReaper said, your respective crafting merchant sells insignia recipes that are of rare quality, allowing you to make rare gear, using these, you should jump up rather quickly

Thanks, all!
Kwolf: Can you point me to one, or give me a string that might catch the right places in Google? Thanks!
DeumReaper and Berkut: I think I see your point. So, I don’t get credit for the recipe (since I bought it and know it by the time I use it). But, that allows me to craft something else (armor piece or ring or whatever), and doing that gains me crafting XP. Is that about correct?
If so, that’s easier than I thought. And, a LOT less expensive.
Thanks to all!!! Great insights!
Yup, you actually can’t discover the recipes sold by the merchant (hence why you need to buy them), but the items you can make from them are of a high enough quality that they will boost your crafting level much faster than what you can currently make.

It gets better: I made a pair of gloves. Rare of course, but so were my old gloves. Since the old ones were soulbound, I decided to master salvage it (didn’t think of using a Black Lion kit). I received not just the rune, but also 2 silk and a glob of ectoplasm.
I am pleased.
