How many traits do you need to learn to get the enhanced drop rates for getting craft writs?

✭✭✭✭✭ZOS hasn’t disclosed the exact formula ... just know the more traits researched the better.0 -
Gundug✭✭✭✭✭I have one account where 14 of 15 characters have 9 traits on everything, and another with 15 characters that have from 5-8 traits. I have been doing writs daily for months, and have not seen any pattern where one group gets more, or better master writs.0

✭The improvements are fractional at best, so I don't put too much worry into alt research. I just bank a bunch of drops on my main, then when I log into an alt to do writs/mount training, I look to see if they have a research slot available and, if so, do it. If not, it'll wait 'til tomorrow.Feric51

Trait knowledge does factor in, but anecdotal reports from people who do max-tier writs on characters with varying degrees of traits research show that the improvements gained are there, but small.
I was simply saying not to stress out about the research on your alts, just continue to do it as regularly as possible without breaking stride.Feric51

✭✭The master writ rate is significantly greater if you are 9/9 with most motifs, and 9/9 appears to have more impact.
The problem is the chance to receive high value master writs. It appears to be completely random.
I now have about 20 characters with most crafting achievements complete (mostly through the 25 motif achievement but not the 50). I sell 60-120 low value writs a week because of how long it takes to zone. Not worth running them all.
Just a handful of high value master writs will give me as many or more vouchers, and to win the lottery alot you just need alot of toons playing.

✭being lucky > traits learned > motifs known
no way to confirm that, i do believe that having certain achievments (e.g. truly legendary, jerk of all trades, unsurpassed crafter) done also helps.
keep in mind, u can improve the quantity, not the quality of dropped writs.1 -

There's an achievement for that? I'm pretty sure I earned it from my wife IRL.Feric51

I think it's more of a debuff. It certainly has a direct effect on aggro.being lucky > traits learned > motifs known

Just because you don't like the way something is doesn't necessarily make it wrong...
Earn it.
