v1.6 provisioning rumor control questions

Are there any official words somewhere about provisioning and what is going to happen to our current ingredients and recipes? Recently I was told to burn through all my ingredients because they will all "go away" in the update. The amount of high gold ingredients I have saved makes this important to me. I would rather not use player interpretations of what they read as my basis for understanding how the update will effect my account.

    Basically there are two possible outcomes for your existing provisioner components, based on the actual component:
    • The component will be renamed, nothing changes.
    • The component will no longe be used, so it will get old, stale, etc. This means that you can sell the component to any vendor and then buy a replacement component off the grocer for the same amount of gold.

    So whatever you do, you won't lose any money. Some people are just either not reading patch notes or they're misinterpreting things (or they want to make some quick money or profit by picking up sold components for example).

    The problem is rare ingredients. There will be no replacement for pepper and you cannot purchase the rare ingredients from a Vendor. So you can either have 10 gold for each pepper (last time I checked on PTS) or you can make purple food before 1.6 goes live and that food will convert to a usable piece of food. No brainer for me.

    Oats will also be converting to the rare ingredient for purple drinks so unless you want that you will want to use up all of your pepper and oats before 1.6 goes live. Tomatoes will be converting to the rare ingredient for purple food.

    Otherwise all ingredients are fine. They will either convert into something useful or you will be able to sell the ingredients and then buy replacements for the same price.

    If you do a search or check in the crafting section you will find a few threads on it.

    Use up all your Pepper, it's turning stale, which is a massive loss of value in case of this particular ingredient.
