Inspiration = ?

Just did my first crafting writ on the test server. Nice results. One of the results was a gain in "inspiration".

Huh? I mean, it was cool, but it didn't inspire me much at all. And shouldn't *I* be the one to decide if *I* was inspired?

Kidding aside, WT* is "inspiration"? My toon is a level VR12/Vamp10/Blacksmithing50 toon. Is inspiration merely a fancy word for "crafting experience" and if so does that mean the new crafting writs are giving something I can't use if I have maxxed out crafting?

I mean, I got back pretty much all the voidstone ore I consumed for the writ, and few enhanced nirnstones (beware kids--looks like our armor and wep enhancements are about to start life tiered some better than others from the get-go!), but it didn't seem like that big a deal.

    Inspiration is for crafting what exp is for other skills. So yes, if you have maxed out the craft, the inspiration won't do you any good. However, the other rewards, a small amount of experience and gold... might be worth it.

    The two levels of Nirncrux appear to make it worthwhile.

    Going to try my Alchemy monkey on a writ...

    I wish the writs were there from launch. Great way to get people to level up and they seem to be dailies.

    Alchemy writ was.. disappointing. The map took me forever to locate, and it yielded about 8 lush plants. Lush plants yield two items instead of one. If I had spent the same amount of time wandering around as I did trying to find the map location, I would have had a LOT more alchemy mats.

    Enchanting writ yielded no map, just a enchantment a smidgen better than I had created and 3 grand Soul gems. The inspiration yield was decent though, and god knows for enchanting, every little bit helps.

    Wonder what the jewelry writs will be like...
