The recipe
https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Box_of_Recipes:_Howl_ lists three professions, which to me seems as you can craft the ingredients on any of the three (like with inscriptions).

But when you learn it as anything that is not a huntsman, well, you are out of luck, because only thing that you could craft is the Legendary inscription. I have learned the recipe on the artificer, which was presumably silly of me – but I kind of hope that the game will tell me which crafting disciplines are applicable to the recipe and I would not have to verify those things in wikis and forums.

Now my artificer can craft a legendary inscription and nothing else. I have another character that is a huntsman, and if I would’ve known that the recipe is actually legit for huntsmen only, I would’ve learned it on her. The idea of leveling my artificer as a huntsman does not sound appealing – I would’ve done it if it was my fault, but I don’t see how following in-game instructions is my fault.

I would really appreciate if this bug gets resolved – I can repeat the achievement, or, if possible, just an ‘unlearned’ recipe back in the inventory so that I can give it to the huntsman would be incredible.

Contact support; they’ll help you get the recipe(s) on the correct toon.
(There are several current threads with suggestions for changing the mechanic so this doesn’t happen as easily or as often.)

Since you’ve finished the tier 1 collection, Grandmaster Craftsman Hobbs will now sell you Chest of Prey for 10k karma.

Because of you can solve this yourself, I doubt Customer Support will do anything. Make sure you have a hunstman learn the recipes this time!

Customer service has helped others who can ‘solve the problem themselves’ when similar mistakes have happened. Regardless, it costs the OP only a few minutes of their time to ask.

Thanks, everyone! I have submitted support request, hopefully that will help. If not, 10k karma Chest of Prey will work as well
