Master writ Question

Does the person turning the quest in have to make the piece? I just crafted a legendary training bow of seducer in imperial for a guildies writ but they weren't able to turn it in. I took the loss and sent the gold back but is this a glitch or working as intended?

    Yes, the character who has the writ must craft the item. It's not like normal writs where as long as it's made by a player it works.

    Has to be crafted by the person. No bug

    Confirmed via Xbox one yersterday with another guy. No short cuts it seems so this is 100% on the crafter other than materials

    Alright, thank you, so what about making the item on an alt then transferring and upgrading? Or does it need to be made from scratch from the person

    Probably working as intended. It is incentive for players to advance their characters crafting skills. Would be nice if a player could have access to the vouchers account wide. Being bound to character really throws a wrench in things for players that divided the crafting duties among several characters. I am lucky that I have one character that can do it all so can just open all the master writs on him. Others though are going to end up with several characters with a few vouchers each and no way to really spend them.
    and then the parrot said, "must be the water mines green too."

    Hadn't tested that but because players can't craft and the item is tagged by the specific player I'd assume that won't work either.

    Edit: Possibly food, alchemy may work but not enchant, ww, bs, cloth

    You would need to craft it in the character turning in the writ. Another character of yours cannot craft it instead...

    I am doing normal writs on my characters and when a master writ drops, instead of taking the quest I bank the Master Writ and then retrieve it and open (taking the quest) on my super crafter.

    Well good lesson to learn guys, I was just trying to help out a friend but I guess we both learned an expensive lesson ha. Thankfully I have all the motifs up until homestead and 9 trait all on my main but it still stinks to lose 8 rosin...hopefully I pick up the exact same writ someday.

    Yes, you have to make it yourself. And, it has to be a freshly crafted. You cannot use an item that has been made and stored before you got the master writ.
