[b][B.][/b] This post is a work-in-progress. Please suggest additions and changes at your leisure. This is a compilation of easy and accessible recipes/patterns for those who want to level their crafting quickly. I define "easy and accessible" here as: - Taking few materials. - Requiring few tools (in the case of cooking). - Available from a low crafting level. [center][size=15][b][u]Cooking[/u][/b][/size][/center] The following four recipes are probably the most accessible. They each require only one ingredient, are available for purchase right away, and do not use any tools. Raisins will likely be easier than Spinach Salad or Corn Kernels, as there are two shops that stock the ingredients instead of one. [b]Raisins[/b] - Ingredients: Red Grapes (Robin and Zephyr common, ~500 shards) - Tools: None. - Recipe sold by: Robin (common, ~500 shards) - Cooking level: 1 [b]Golden Raisins[/b] - Ingredients: White Grapes (Robin and Zephyr common, ~500 shards) - Tools: None. - Recipe sold by: Robin (common, ~500 shards) - Cooking level: 1 [b]Corn Kernels[/b] - Ingredients: Corn (Robin common, ~500 shards) - Tools: None. - Recipe sold by: Robin (common, ~500 shards) - Cooking level: 1 - Notes: I believe newbies begin with this recipe already learned. Corn is also sold by the Witch, but new players are unlikely to have access to the Shadow Stage. [b]Spinach Salad[/b] - Ingredients: Spinach (Robin common, ~500 shards) - Tools: None. - Recipe sold by: Robin (common, ~800 shards) - Cooking level: 1 - Notes: The on-boarding unique quests will give this recipe to you. Coffee can also be a good supplementary source for leveling. Jay has a quest that will reward you with more coffee beans in exchange for coffee, which potentially eliminates the need to buy ingredients. However, the recipes themselves are not accessible right away, and they require the use of a Grain Mill and Press Pot, which take time to clean. (Note: your on-boarding unique quests will give you a free Grain Mill and Press Pot, so don't bother buying them.) [b]Dark Roast Coffee[/b] - Ingredients: Dark Roast Coffee Beans (Robin common, ~400 shards) - Tools: Grain Mill, Press Pot - Recipe sold by: Jay (common, ~500 shards) - Cooking level: 3 [b]Blonde Roast Coffee[/b] - Ingredients: Blonde Roast Coffee Beans (Robin common, ~400 shards) - Tools: Grain Mill, Press Pot - Recipe sold by: Jay (common, ~500 shards) - Cooking level: 3 [b]Hazelnut Coffee[/b] - Ingredients: Hazelnut Coffee Beans (Robin uncommon, ~700 shards) - Tools: Grain Mill, Press Pot - Recipe sold by: Jay (uncommon, ~1000 shards) - Cooking level: 4 [b]Vanilla Coffee[/b] - Ingredients: Vanilla Coffee Beans (Robin uncommon, ~700 shards) - Tools: Grain Mill, Press Pot - Recipe sold by: Jay (uncommon, ~1000 shards) - Cooking level: 4 [center][size=15][b][u]Tailoring[/u][/b][/size][/center] The easiest patterns for Tailoring are eyebrow patterns, which do not require any materials. However, they cannot be purchased. They are only given out by Kei's daily quests. (There is also a [url=https://tatteredworld.com/forum_subcategories/67/forum_topics/7551]giveaway[/url] for them.) The second easiest patterns are the umbrella patterns, which require only the pattern and Canvas, available immediately. Prioritize buying many copies of the patterns, as unlike recipes, they are used up every time an item is crafted, and Andre has a very large pattern stock. [b]Open Umbrella Pattern[/b] - Materials: Canvas (Andre and Quintina common, ~100 shards, level 1) - Pattern sold by: Andre (common, ~100 shards) - Notes: Canvas is sold by all tailors, but newbies will only have access to Andre and Quintina. [b]Closed Umbrella Pattern[/b] - Materials: Canvas (Andre and Quintina common, ~100 shards, level 1) - Pattern sold by: Andre (common, ~100 shards) - Notes: Canvas is sold by all tailors, but newbies will only have access to Andre and Quintina.
