Does anyone know of a good way to keep track of all of the furnishing plans you know and don’t know?

I’m at the point where I know most green plans and am trying to find the rest. It would be much easier to look for them if I had a list of some sort. I play on Ps4.

I found a spreadsheet someone had made, and I fixed it up to better suit my preferences (thanks and sorry to whomever I stole it from!) It still needs to be tidied up and bit, and it doesn't have the most recent stuff—I've just been adding those as I come across them—but it's been working great for me.

If you're playing on PC, try this:

http://www.esoui.com/downloads/info1043-ESOMasterRecipeList.html

It allows you to track more than just furnishing items, it is a good addon to use.

However I have no idea how things work on other platforms ^.^

My wife thinks I'm a nerd, but I printed out a spreadsheet with all the available furnishing plans in the game and physically check them off with a pen/pencil as I learn them.

Did this with provisioning recipes as well...

Note: I'm on Xbox and don't have access to add-ons.

I don't know if its part of the Stock UI or the Awesome Guild Store Addon, but you can filter guild stores by Know or Unknown recipes. I think it's only the addon, it's been sooooo long since I have not had Awesome Guild Store installed.

Definitely not part of base game UI as I would love to have this on console. I'm down to my last 5 recipes to find for provisioning and have to scroll, full speed, through every blue recipe listed hoping to see the text at the top flicker.

For PC, the CraftStore addon does this as well, in addition to tracking your known motifs in one location, research for all chracters, and wayshrines for crafting stations, plus info for all the crafted sets

I recommend the CraftStore add on. It shows you the vast majority of plans available, shows which you already know, and paired with Furniture Preview plug in, lets you see what everything looks like in advance.

I should have mentioned in my original post that I’m on PS4 and don’t have access to add ons. Thank you for answering though.

@Feric51

As a recipe hunter from way back, I can tell you those last few blue recipes are probably rare, and probably expensive. So, try this, sort descending by price, the blues you need will probably show at the higher price end. Also, there are hundreds of recipes in the say 200 gold and less, or whatever threshold, but maybe only 30 to 80 at the expensive end, so this can help as only have to browse a couple of pages at each kiosk. Because you will never find those last few blue recipes selling at 29 Gold.....

Also, if you respec an alt and them run provisioning recipes at the level you need for the missing recipes, that is another good way to acquire them. I remember I needed Highland Rabbit Stew, an L2 Blue recipe. It is one of the Unicorns in the game. Anyway, I had 6 alts doing nothing but Tier 2 Provisioning writs for a couple of weeks and got two copies of the recipe. Also, I got to sell some other rare blues that I got but did not need.

I did something similar by setting my alts at certain provisioning levels and running the Dreloth urns with them. No out of pocket cost, no need to learn the writ recipes, and was pretty much getting a blue recipe on about 60-70% of the runs.

This has also made me quite a bit of gold by setting the passive to find CP10 and CP50 recipes, which tend to be the rarest in the game top to bottom.

You’re right about them tending to be more pricey, but I still can’t help but starting at low prices on the off chance it’s a new character listing them who doesn’t know the value. I’ve found and flipped several rare recipes listed at npc merchant value in guild traders by someone who obviously didn’t know you could change the asking price.

I appreciate the feedback!!

when you highlight the recipe/furnishing diagram, it will tell you as to whether you have already learned it on your current character from which it will either say "Use to add to Library" or "Already Known/Learned, etc." (Its been about half a month since I last played it on Xbox One)

AardvarkChips

Craftstore, hands down. It does this and many other things.

I know if you beat the mages guild and pick the infinite knowledge reward instead of 3 skill points it gives you a menu of all books you have read in the game idk but it might be in that menu if someone can confirm it?

You are still given Shalidor’s Library even if you commit Valaste to Chuck E. Cheesemonger’s Isle of Fun. Unfortunately, your lore library does not show provisioning recipes or furnishing plans learned.

For PC you can use an add-on. Console users must use a smart-phone app, or a digital/printed spreadsheet.

Could you give a name for the app? This is something worth investigating.

Feric51

@Marginis I think it's just called "The ESO App"

$1.99 on the Apple app store last I checked. I don't have it, so I can't confirm that it includes all provisioning/furnishing stuff, so if anyone has personally used it and would like to chime in I'd be grateful.

AardvarkChips

I've heard of ESO Toolkit, but have never used it. Friends, who do, rave about it.

@Feric51 I'm a nerd, too! I created a spreadsheet long ago for provisioning recipes - I think I adapted it from something SneakyThief made. Also, I co-opted part of a google docs spreadsheet from when Homestead launched - I think from Dominoid - and just used the furniture recipes spreadsheet, adapted it to suit me, and have added to it as new plans have been introduced.

I downloaded the ESO Toolkit, but it doesn't have anything for recipes or furnishing plans. It does have motifs, but the interface is a little clunky when trying to check off all the motifs you know. I was also disappointed that it didn't include skyshard locations.

@Ashdroid This is great! Thanks for sharing! Mine's just a simple spreadsheet designed to be printed (yes, I print them out and use a pencil to check things off!). But, I like how yours is divided into the various crafting skills, plus organized alphabetically by category as it is in the crafting interface. Plus, you've got recipes and motifs there too - all in one place. Since I have a tablet now - I hate doing spreadsheets on a phone - I might think about downloading and using this moving forward.

Craftstore for sure if you are on PC. If not, the printed spreadsheet idea sounds like the best/most awesome way to handle it.

NEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD!

But then if you weren't one, I wouldn't be asking if you wouldn't mind sharing said spreadsheets with us fellow console players?

Pretty please?

Feric51

@Violynne I don't have a good link to the spreadsheet as it's behind a gated private Band page, but I can email you the Excel spreadsheet directly.

PM me your email address and I'll get it sent out as fast as possible.

^^^ This goes for any other console players who want it. It's a comprehensive sheet that includes motifs, recipes, etc. *Note is hasn't been updated since November 2017, so it might be lacking a few new furnishing plans (jesters pavilion, etc) or motifs (worm cult) that have been introduced in the meantime, but otherwise it's pretty complete.
