[Guide] Complete Crafting Quests Spoilers

[Harrian]

He was removed, as diplos doing the regional trade and dealing in the grey market items found a way to generate a couple plat an hour with him. They've fixed that, so he is back.

Hopefully, I'm not repeting stuff already posted. I just printed out a new copy of this guide, and noticed a few quests still show the pre (GU3?) update faction rewards, although most are correct. We made notes of the continental factions on our old old copy of this, and I compared the two. Here are my updates:

Quest: The Fate of Captain Umbertoe - Should read 75 Thestra Artisan's faction

Quest: Quest: Rindol Field Repair Duty - should read 100 Tursh/Rindol Field artisans and 75 Thestra Artisan Faction

Quest: Shipwright's Order - Should read 50 thestran artisan's faction

I just found this thread again and noticed it is missing the new Banisher quests.

I'm at work so I don't have the details, but I got the quest in Tanvu in the crafting area to go help Ashlyn (the Banisher boss in New Targanor) at level 13 (Armorer).

There was a whole line of "Artisan's Saga" quests in there (I still haven't finished). I also don't know if you have to get the "referral" or can speak to Ashlyn directly.

It starts with Artisan's Saga: world of the arcane. I'm currently on Artisan's Saga: Iron and Blood (which is the fourth one).

None of these quests are very hard, and the XP was 20k each quest @ lv. 15.

Anyone online that can confirm some more details? If I had realized it wasn't here I would have paid more attention.

I have some updates to post, but it seems pointless to do on page 5 of a thread if it isn't getting updated.

If its not getting updated, any volunteers to copy over the info to a new one and maintain it? Or is the plan to move this stuff to the wiki?

The Good News:
Over the weekend, I did put in categories for all the existing quests on the Wiki. That made it possible to sort the massive quest list into useful groupings of quests.
So, yay! You can now see a complete list of "General" crafting quests at:
http://www.vanguardcrafters.com/wiki...:General_Quest

The Mediocre News:
Unfortunately, that article doesn't clearly list the rewards for each quest and it may be a large-ish project for me to rework the templates in a way that shows the rewards at a glance. I will put this on my priority list to fix, but I can't guarantee that it will be done in the next week. (I'll try!)

Your Updates Are Much Appreciated!!
I'd love the help in making sure the Wiki articles are updated as we go along. Then when I do get the reward template worked out -- it should *poof* appear in a useful Wiki article. (/knocks on wood) I will go back through this thread once the Wiki template changes are completed and integrate any updates that haven't been made in the Wiki yet.

Cheers,
Ashjete

FYI, it does appear to be random. Yesterday i got an Andecite Slab and a Lapis Lazuli Sample from one satchel.
