Holgarf.6581 Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 I've got every single Ruka's recipe from Dragon's Stand. I have a Spiritwood focus casing and core. I have a vision crystal. Yet, I cannot craft what I want even though I know the recipe. I want to make Ruka's Artifact but it won't show up in the list of known recipes at the crafting table. I am Artificer 500. I have the same issue with Weaponsmith and trying to create Ruka's Bastion. I've asked for help in the game but nobody knows. I have plenty of inventory space, the necessary discipline, level, materials, etc. What am I overlooking? I've actually wasted time rebuying the recipes in the off chance is bugged out. I had no issue making Ruka's Flanged Mace. The crafting recipe doesn't actually appear in the name list of Foci in the Artificer station, even though I have already consumed said recipes.Any ideas?

Crystal Paladin.3871 Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 I was wrong ... As of 2016, they made recipe account wide unlock as mentioned in wiki:"learning a recipe from a consumable on one character will unlock it for all other characters on your account (as of the July 26, 2016 update)" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holgarf.6581 Posted September 8, 2019 Author Share Posted September 8, 2019 Aww man... wtf. I was under the impression that all recipe unlocks were account bound and usable by any character with the proper crafting discipline. Please tell me this isn't true for all recipes?There are a few reasons why crafting can seem confusing, but this recipe thing isn't explained anywhere (even on the wiki). I've been playing the game on and off for over 4 years and this is the first I have ever heard of this. That being said I'm pretty certain that I consumed the recipe with my main who is the one trying to craft it. But also, I recently bought Ruka's inscription again in Dragon's Stand with my remaining map currency and it still claims "you already know this recipe".

Ashantara.8731 Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 The recipe is not character bound. You can buy it at the Trading Post: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Recipe:_Ruka%27s_ArtifactP.S. None of the recipes you learn are ever character bound. They are all account-bound.

I shall now go bang my head against a wall for a few minutes.Thank you for pointing out the obvious. That being said, I did kinda expect knowing the Dragon's Stand recipe to allow me to craft the Artifact. Confusing stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the "ruka's artifact" could be a different recipe... You should check it out too... Need both recipe to craft the ascended focusYou can search the recipe in tp if available and move the mouse cursor over it to check if you already learned the recipe... If not, you know what to doHope this helps X) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can get confusing when you are not yet used to this game's crafting system. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaralyna.3104 Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 I never tried making it myself but, I do see the following note on the wiki at the recipe itself saying: "anomaly: The recipe sheet lists Trailblazer's stats rather than Wanderer's. The item crafted uses Wanderer's as intended."Now I am not sure if this is correct then but, do you use the following?1 Spiritwood Focus Casing1 Spiritwood Focus Core1 Ruka's Wanderer's Inscription1 Vision CrystalThis recipe ain't a discovery so make sure you didn't check some boxes under your craft popup (like hiding ascended recipes or level 500 recipes or the like). If you do select or unselect these tickboxes its very possible you are simply hiding them from your interface and thus making it seem you miss said recipes.If it still won't show or does not work it may be bugged and then maybe support could look into it. As last resort you could get a Chest of Foci instead.https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Chest_of_Foci Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It drops randomly and is not account bound at acquisition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OP did mention he/she bought said recipe several times already and consumed it (incl getting message the recipe is already owned)Which makes me believe the crafting popup of said professions has a tickbox checked or unchecked that thereby hides said recipes in the interface. So OP has the recipe in the interface but has just accidently hidden it via checkboxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I realised I could, I bought Ruka's Warhammer, Bastion and Artifact. Crafted Artifact immediately afterwards. :)Now I just need to make le staff and I'm all good. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm looking at this thread on phone now and see 50 percent more replies from even before I had my 1st reply to op. And that while I had reloaded the page several times before and after I placed my replies... Something is strange.... Anyhow at least ops issue got resolved now and thats all that matters :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
