Tradeskill Writs

For a categorical listing of all tradeskill writs and related information, see Category:Tradeskill Writs.

Tradeskill Writs are (unlimited) repeatable of tradeskill quests, similar to city adventuring writs. Successfully completing them is advised in order to earn coin, tradeskill experience, status, and to gain positive faction.

Two Types of Writs

The following is true of both types:

• They are the fastest way to gain levels when you tradeskill.
• Because they take less time than the typical city adventuring writs, they are also the one of the fastest ways to earn status points
• Completing them also gives your guild status (10% of any writ you complete) and helps raise the guild level if the guild is not at the maximum of 100.

• Many guilds will do tradeskill writs to gain status quickly and pay for the upkeep of their guild hall.

The two types:

Work Orders
You can begin doing Work Order writs starting at level 15.

• They generally take longer to complete because you are asked to make more items.
• They give a coin reward and status points that varies by the difficulty level.

• If you have the option to choose several levels (based on your tradeskill level), the higher level work order often offers better rewards.
• Once you can do them, all rush orders have greater rewards at equal difficulty levels

Rush Orders
The timed Rush Order writs become available at level 15.

• You have 8 minutes and 30 seconds to complete these, but you will be making fewer items.
• If you are not an experienced crafter (you as a person, not just your character in levels) these can be difficult to complete, particularly before level 30.
• They give coin and rewards and status points that varies by difficulty levels.

• If you have the option to choose several levels (based on your tradeskill level), the higher level rush order often offers better rewards.

Where to Get Tradeskill Writs

Each city's tradeskill (or crafting) area has two foremen NPCs that offer writs: one for work orders and one for rush orders. The NPCs are also available as guild hall amenities. The clipboards to start can be purchased from any city faction merchant, using status points.

The Process

1. Talk to writ quest giver (foreman) and accept the writ quest.
2. Ensure you have materials, fuel and all available "essential" recipes. Advanced recipes are not required for writs.
3. Click the nearby Work Order Clipboard. If this is a rush order an 8 minute, 30 sec, timer begins now.
4. Craft the items listed in the quest. When you create your items, they are "collected" automatically and do not go into your inventory.

Hints

• Click the crafting device (such as the forge) while standing close to it, change the search from Default:Forge to Unfiltered.
• Click "Show hidden" at the bottom of the interface.
• The interface can be opened/closed with the letter N.
• Click 'Difficulty' to organize recipes from hardest to easiest.
• The search bar may be used with abbreviations such as 'lea pan' will match leather pants or leather pantaloons. Be sure the name matches very closely or exactly. Sometimes the word 'pristine' will appear in the writ, but will be absent from the recipe name. That has a historical reason, just know that the word may not be in the name of the recipe, so don't search with 'pristine' use the name of the item such as 'pants'

When the writ is complete, the quest ends, and you can go back to the foreman and get another quest right away if you want.

List of Work Orders

Work orders usually require 12 combines.
