I should check, as I have a few extra recipes I intended to give an Alt. As for the level of the recipes, I think if you farm the zone for that level, as long as you are not VR, then you will find recipes at that level. I know some of my higher level toons have found low level recipes during the Dolmen rotations (I poke around in bags and stuff while waiting for the worm cult folks to wake up)

Also, check the Guild Traders, most recipes seem to be going for 20 to 50 gold for the lower level ones, at least the couple of traders I looked at had a bunch. My guild bank had a ton of them. So it's possible you can find what you need that way.

Send me a PM in the game and I will check for you in my inventory or the Guild bank when I log in tonight.

I keep getting lower level recipes all the time, mostly ones I know, but the occassional one I don't.

Not sure whether the rate at which they drop changes though.

i started hardcore farming pact zone with a lvl 12 toon. when i bumped him to lvl 13 he started popping the lvl 15 worm recipes. when i bumped him to lvl 14 he popped the lvl 15 dragon tongue ale and shirza. he didnt pop the dragon tongue spirit (slash of dragon) until lvl 15
i only need the lvl 10 blue spirit to complete all of pact lvl 10. but i dont want to make the jump into lvl 20 recipes without getting it.

but why are you such hardcore farmer?this game is not all about motifs and recipe farming its just illness

Some of us are just collectors and completionists. It is more an addiction than an illness! lol

This game is about whatever I want it to be. If I want to have a complete recipe book to take screenshots before the overhaul, that's up to me.
If I couldn't care less about time trials or zergs, that is up to me.

You have problems in life then.

Every time my characters hit VR they tend to become bank sitters. Sometimes they go out on gathering trips. I would rather be working the crafts & barrels (pun intended) than playing VR content as it currently exists. In my world view you are the wierdo.

To the OP: I gave up on the project you are currently on. The RNG gods must hate me. The container nerf hates me, even though I never did the relog to refresh the containers quasi-exploit. Now I just cruise along and let it not bother me.

Good luck with your personal quest, you are on the right track, now it's up to range. Don't forget public dungeon runs. There's that one harder public dungeon in every zone to try as well. Make a special note of any location that has a lot of desks. I suggest ZNB addon.

As an update, my Dominion toon popped my last needed green. I now have every green recipe in game except Saltrice Slurry which doesnt drop.
I needed to get my Pact toon off the snide so I bought the last blue lvl 10 he was having trouble finding. He immediately popped a blue lvl 15. I paid big bucks for that blue lvl 10, but I have seen blue lvl 15's in guild kiosks for humungous bucks.

@Woolenthreads: It does appear to be RNG related. For the last few nights all I get from the lvl 15 in Wayrest is lvl 5 recipes. Ah well, what can you do?

I farm low level recipes. I intend to own as many recipes as possible by the time of the overhaul and see how much they screw me over.

I wonder if increasing the number of recipes owned only increases the chance of getting screwed over.
For example, say someone owns all 6 VR5 purple drink recipes. Since all 6 recipes use universal mats (not alliance specific) and all have the exact same result, I can see where it would make sense for ESO to reduce the number of VR5 purple drink recipes to one. If all current recipes will be converted to the closest equivalent after the revamp then someone who learned all 6 would be no better off than someone who learned only one.

Since they've already said they intend to reduce the number of Provisioning mats I'm REALLY hoping they eliminate all Alliance specific mats. That alone would reduce the number of mats by almost half. And since those mats are only used in recipes level 35 and under there really isn't that much demand for them making them really not worth the effort to farm much less store. They could replace all the alliance specific recipes with universal recipes. If that happened then as example, your level 10 AD STA recipe, your level 10 EB STA recipe and your level 10 Cov STA recipe would all be replaced by a single level 10 universal STA recipe that would use mats found in all three level 10 alliance zones. Which would make things much simpler than trying to keep track of what alliance has which mats.

Anyone have a link to a spreadsheet list of recipes? Still looking and wanted to use something to keep track of what my characters have already and are missing.

I'm even looking through peoples sigs.

well, I leveled a toon to lvl 16 and he immediately started getting tons of blue lvl 20 recipes 8(. i need to delete him and power lvl a different toon.
i need blue grilled worms and blue wriggles-in-gullet.
the only other blue pact recipe i need is blue grilled frog legs, a lvl 35. i should be able to grab it from a kiosk.

this isnt a bad spreadsheet

Blues start at lvl10. Spirits and Grilled foods can become ENRICHED (using snowberries and salt respectively). Beers and Pies can become FORTIFIED (using Hallertau Hops and Red Wheat respectively). Wine and Soups can become INVIGORATED (using Concord Grapes and Onion respectively).

As for Consummate recipes, they start at lvl 35. Spirits require juniper berry and canis root, Beers require hops and saaz hops, Wines require white grapes and piquant jazbay graped, Pies require oats and barley, Soups require tomato and potato, Grilled foods require pepper and garlic.
