Master Craft Writs

VenuvianRaider
Do I have to kill someone to get a Master Craft Writ that I can complete to drop? Ridiculous drop rate with too many impossible factors.

    Its the Motifs?

    There are like 78 of them now, so the chances are good you won't know the motif unless you have been collecting motifs.

    My advice, read the motif before you accept it. If you can't acquire the motif with reasonable cost or effort, sell it on a guild store, and buy a writ with a motif you know.

    We are soon going into two events that typically drop a ton of motifs. Grind the events that drop the containers and troll the guild stores during the latter half of the events, motifs get cheap then.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    @Nestor is right.

    The Anniversary Event drops a ton of motifs ... for players that have a high tolerance for grinding the event quests.

    Thanks. I’ll try that. Have four I need motifs for. Just about have most traits done except Nirnhoned, and each of those going to take a month or so each. Been trying to find Draugr Chest motif with no luck anywhere, even drops from Undaunted quests.

    The undaunted daily delves are probably the best source for the Draugr motif pages, but FG and MG dailies also use the same list. One delve versus three dolmens, or a public dungeon makes me prefer Bolgrul.

    And the RNG knows what you need, so if you buy that page, it will start to drop every time.
