    So I see all the feedback on the PTS feedback thread regarding legendary mats was dismissed or ignored.

    Not unless they changed it again just before going live. One of the patches on PTS did change it so that you get writs requesting epic quality more often than legendary, and my continued testing on PTS proved that to be true. In the last week or so that I tested I got epic requirements 90% of the time. So you still will get legendary on occasion, but you can always just sell those ones.

    Here's hoping they didn't decide to change it back within the last week...

    How many writ vouchers is it for the new motif pages?
    And how many writ vouchers for the target skeleton recipe and the animus stone to make it?

    Wait what? I obviously haven't been paying attention properly. You need vouchers to get the target skeleton recipe? I was hoping you could just buy the skeleton outright. The skeleton is the only thing that has me interested in homestead and now I might need a ton of gold mats to get it? *grumble grumble*
    Are the master writs always gold?

    No, I vaguely remember getting an epic on the PTS.

    EDIT: The Writ itself is always legendary, the items it require are not. Also, the alchemy writs were the least punishing for materials by far, as I recall.

    I hope they don't require me to craft Alliance styles I'm not part of.

    I won't buy the Daggerfall and Aldmilkdrinker motifs.

    @Tan9oSuccka

    Your chances of getting a Master Writ are much much lower if you are picking and choosing which motifs to learn, so this may be a self-solving problem for you.

    PTS was 25 per chapter, or 300 (50 discount) for the full book.

    I think they changed that from motifs learned to trait research, dictates likelihood of master writ drop.

    Can the master writ be deposited in your bank and done on another character or can you only do it on the character it drops on?

    Question. If I don't know the motif, but a friend does, can they craft it for me and it update the quest when I receive the item?

    When motifs are $40 a pop you better believe I'm being choosy.

    Oh, and 0 Master Writs for me too.

    I think they said they'd reduced the number of Master Writs that required gold rather than purple, not eliminated them.

    On 2.7.4 PTS you were able to bank them, the vouchers you get for completing them were however bound to the character, hopefully they've changed that

    I think the concern is I don't have a fair shake at even getting the other alliance motifs. I can either:
    1. Buy/get gouged at a guild vendor
    2. Roll two alts

    I have done my due diligence in acquiring almost all of the ones that I can attain naturally. Not counting crown store and the green alliance.

    I believe on PTS, Master Writs could be banked or traded. Vouchers, however, were Bound to Character. I hope they at least decided to change that.

    Nope, still definitely all of the following! From today's patch notes:
    The frequency of Master Writ invites from standard Writ boxes is based on the overall associated tradeskill mastery possessed by the character.
    • This includes research, Motif knowledge, and achievement completion.

    Honestly they should be extremely cheap from guild vendors on all platforms and servers. Do you have Yokudan? You could farm up enough gold to buy a full set of both AD and DC motifs dozens or even hundreds of times over before you got the full Yokudan.

    Yes, but think about how much they will sell for.... at least early on.

    Just found out the same thing in guild chat. There goes my only interest in housing.

    Oh well, I'll just ignore the nerfs, continue playing casual and pretend this update never happened. ;)

    Looks like I might actually see some benefit from all the effort I put into crafting - be interesting how many I can complete before I get one that I cannot do (when it comes to PS4).

    I have 8 characters at level 50 in all crafting skill lines, a 9 trait crafter who knows all alliance styles and has read every new motif I have ever found. I also have an 8 trait crafter, 150 or more of each gold improvement item and over 300 of all purples.

    I'll bet the first ever master writ I get, I will not know the style......
