Well, I have ESO Plus, so don't have to pull anything out of my bank (hugs her crafting bag). But I do grab all the writs then try and do them without looking at my quest journal or quest tip thingy (I disabled that at launch so can't remember what it's called). It's not overly difficult, but just a little bit of a memory test for myself I guess, using only the brief pop up of each writ's requirements to go off.

Cute. I just use "Dolgubons Lazy Writ Crafter" and Rapid Maneuver plus batches for the consumable writs.

I have heard of it on another thread but haven't tried it, myself. They said on that thread the alchemy and enchant didn't work for it. Does sound neat though!

Enchant work, not provisioning and alchemy.
however here its just to browse and find items you need.
The big saver is the equipment crafting.

For provisioning I just use Cookerywiz, basically the same thing as lazywrit but keeps track of all the dailys the other characters had stockpiled since I crafted all the max tier foods on my main character while the other max tier crafters just grab from bank.

If you've maxed provisioning, there's only three or six possible dailies. It's not too unreasonable just to drop all of those items in the bank, and let Lazy pull them for you on your alts.

What might help you, is that you don't need to pull the mats all the time. Glyphs, provisioning and Alchemy you can pre-make in big batches and the other's if the mats are in your bank u don't need to pull them out, craft direct from your inventory

But I do concur on the racing!!

What I really wonder is, with those crafts, can you complete a master writ on another character for them?

@starkerealm

No, You can't Writ Vouchers are stored separately per character. I do not think you can bank them either. If you check your inventory under the currency tab you can see how much you have. I did a 2 voucher on my alt and his is 2 while my main has 30 something atm.

Nope. Lazy Writ Crafter addon takes care of it all for me. Best addon ever. I do all writs on three characters in under 20 minutes.

Yes writ vouchers are character bound (stupidly) but that still makes the answer to their question, yes, not no. Because items you buy from the writ vendors aren't character bound. They aren't even account bound.

Not quite sure if glyphs are worth pre-making. 1) they have to be made by the character that's turning them in and 2) they don't stack. If you're doing writs on more than 2 characters, that would be a bank hog.

I pre-make the glyphs once a week. It's not a hassle keeping them in the inventory. It is slightly ridiculous that they don't stack though but maybe their concept of them is like kids wooden letter blocks.

I grab all six writs and run back to the guild banker as fast as I can. And as each thing pops up I know what to pull out. Blacksmith, wood these mats never change(if crafting level is stagnate) Clothier- make Rawhide boots- Quick grab rawhide not jute this time. Alchemy Potions of stamina- quick pull out the columbine and dragonthorn, 0/3 cornflower grab that- oh and a nat water, enchanting- glyph of magicka, oko essence rune- quick grab 1 oko 1 makko 1 ta and a jora. provisioner red rye beer and baked potato- potato and rye.

haha starting to learn all these by heart. And maxed ones too for my max crafter. but for those provisioning and alch i have extras since it makes 4 each time that's 3 extra writs done in the future.

Then split all the stacks and toss extras back in.


Anyone else find themselves racing the pop up quest like this? otherwise you have to keep exiting the bank to check the journal and hear, "fivefold gernerations my friend."

I'm on PC and got ESO+, I use an addon to do the crafting for me more or less. Takes me 3-5 mins to complete all 6 writs and deliver them.

I think this it the amount of time it takes us all, addon or not? I know personally I do mine in Sentinel, faff about picking up flowers as I go from station to station, head over to Belkarth to drop them off and I'd say it takes around 5 minutes still.

Ironically, none of this answers my, poorly phrased, question.

So, equipment writs (and master writs) check the crafter's tag, to see if it matches the character trying to turn in the item. If it does, you can turn in the item and collect the goodies. If it doesn't, then no.

But, with normal consumable writs (at least with alchemy, and provisioning) there is no crafter's tag, and you can turn in the goodies so long as it matches the item. What I wonder is if the master writs for those two will accept items crafted by a different character, or if the actual crafting is the quest trigger, not the item pickup.

There is now a tag on potions and consumable crafts. But like you said it still works for basic ones. My potions made by Galinel work for Grelbin's alchemy writ. Even though on those potions it says Crafted by Galinel. I just thought it worked because the game knew both of those characters were from my same @ name account. I tried sending an Iron Sword from one whole account to another to test if it would count(it did not), but if it never worked for blacksmithing even on the same account with different characters in the first place then my test was wasted. Still many things to test there @starkerealm !
And yeah sorry for misinterpreting at first!

Enchant works. Alchemy and provisioning don't work. Doesn't matter though since I keep the potions, food, and drink in my bank pre-made. Then I use the banker assistant and the lazy writ addon pulls what the character needs to fulfill writ.
