Is It Just Me? Can't Make Old Masterwork

froger · March 2023

I need to know if it's just me and my stuff is jacked up or if this has been removed from the game.
Background: I want to make Titansteel Lance for my Fighter. I have all MW unlocked, and have for a while.
See that I'm short spruce lumber. No problem, I'll make some. Oh WAIT the recipe is gone!
I know charts for old areas were removed, but were the recipes removed too?

Anyway, I need 1 spruce lumber to attempt the craft. If you have one let me know or send it to jade@jb0134

Hello @froger#9967,

I am not sure, but we are aware that some Chultan Masterwork recipes are missing.

It seems that players were able to craft or purchase from Atelier the Spruce Lumber.

Hi @percemer ,

This is older MW3 stuff. I checked Artificing and have MW3 (and all MW everywhere for that matter) unlocked and can see things like spruce bucket and spruce crossbow, etc to craft. I can exchange my two spruce lumber at the Traveling Merchant next to The Artisan in the SH. Unfortunately, it seems there is no way to acquire or craft spruce lumber. Looking at MW1-2 it seems the recipes for feeder materials are missing there too.

I put up the Atelier in my SH and none of the stuff older than Chultan is listed for sale.

For what it's worth I still have all my MW books except for Armorsmithing 3. I would lose access to recipes when exchanging the MW books for professions supplement packs, so I've held on to them.

I don't know how many people will want the old MW stuff since it is really only good for transmutes, but it is a shame this stuff can't be made.

I suppose if this is thread may be better off in bug reports.

Can confirm the Atelier doe not sell or anyone of them sell pre Chult level crafts, i mean i know they added the exchange but at this point there should be the option to have stuff for the titansteel weapons or the old stuff for great hall decorating (all the good stuff got cut with the exchange update) i mean with out the older decor items whats the point of the decor master in the great hall i mean we still have a dungeon that drops old mats (spellplague) just saying

All Masterwork Recipes that are pre-Chult (Old MW 1-3 Recipe Books) had all middle product recipes deprecated when the Sharandar MW was finally fully released. Now, you can trade some of those old materials over to the lady next to The Artisan in the Stronghold for some currently operative MW materials, but without all the requirements for an Old MW 1-3 final product recipe, you’re going to gain no ground trying to craft one of those items.

The current state of MW involves the:
- Mastered version of Chultan Masterworks
- Sharandar Masterworks
- The ability to directly purchase the original MW 1-2 Weapons from the Outfitter without the crafted item that was originally required.
- Any final product you had all recipe components on hand for prior to the deprecating of the rest of MW 1-3.

Additionally, the current state of Chultan (Regular) Crafting is similar to the MW 1-3 situation, except you can still farm base components, which are still used in current MW recipes. This only pertains to crafting that was required for the League (Elite) Armor and Accessories, as well as the Wootz grade weapons. Bronzewood grade gear is now only produceable as a Mastered version and is part of the current Chultan Masterworks.

Finally, all of the Collections purposes crafting from MW is, with the exception of Stronghold Weapon Set 1, nigh unattainable. Worse yet, those that saw the writing on the wall had a set of turn-ins they were able to do that fully destroyed their MW 1-3 final product crafting possibilities, too, by forgetting the recipe books.

As far as the viability of the Spruce Lumber turn-ins at the Atelier, those are Storm King’s Thunder / The Cloaked Ascendancy Masterworks, so virtually useless, anyways.

I definitely agree with @knightrider86#9458 with regard to giving us the ability to purchase, through Stronghold vendors (preferably not the temporary vendors), all of the pre-Chultan MW items, in addition to the Chultan non-Mastered MW items, both for collections and for SH decorations. We need to bring back those things.

My reason for wanting the Titansteel Lance is for the transmute. I'm 1 spruce lumber short of crafting it. If the recipe were present, then I could craft from the spruce logs I have.

Of course, it would be nice if MW3 stuff was added to the Stronghold vendor.
