Which questlines reward with motifs or recipes

calexus1986

I'm trying to find what quests (outside of dailies with a chance to drop motifs) give rewards of either recipes or motifs. I know about the Orzorga questline in wrothgar but wanted to know if there's anymore. Cheers

Look in the Outlaws Refuge of The Brass Fortress. There's a questline that starts there.

Cadwell's silver with soul-shriven is the only motif I can think of.

You get the orzorgha recipes from a wrothgar quest. Not on ESO right now, but I will update later to tell you the location later (or maybe someone else/Google can show you where on the map she is).

She's on the structure that's above the entrance to the Morkuldin crafting station, almost due north of the Shatul Wayshrine

Oh, doy, I clearly just read the headline, not the OP xD

Outside of Orzorga, there is a questline in the Outlaw's Refuge of Clockwork City that awards several recipes. Including the gold "Clockwork Citrus Filet" and the purple "Spring-Loaded Infusion."

The Spring-Loaded Infusion is nice because it's basically like any other CP150 purple tri-stat food, but scales from level 1 so you can use it on all your alts. It's a little pricier to make with the need for dwarven oil and water hyacinth, but it also opens up some other gear set avenues because I'm pretty sure it qualifies as a drink rather than food.


Also, regarding the motifs as rewards. There are a ton of DLC/chapter zone dailies that have the potential to reward motif chapters. I don't have the time at the moment to list all of them, but basically any daily quest in a DLC/Chapter zone has a chance at a zone-specific motif. In the base game, the mages guild public dungeon daily, fighters guild dolmen daily, and undaunted delve daily can all award the Draugr motif chapters.


Edit - Forgot the motif half of the question.

Is it better than Witchmothers, the recovery one? I know that is not perfect, but I mostly use that since I like the recovery.

Yes, @FlopsyPrince, Clockwork Citrus Filet has slightly better stats than Witchmother’s ... but the cost to make it is much higher since one perfect roe is needed per crafting attempt.

I didn't realize it needed perfect roe. I would make the XP potion instead and sell it if I have extra of that. Thanks for the details though!
