Golden Pursuits bug: "Craft 25 items at home" does not account multicrafting

DinoZavr · December 2024

The counter towards the goal "Craft 25 items inside your home" misses crafted items counter, but accounts just the number of acts of crafting.
i posted two bug reports (sorry first was not enough, as i was figuring out what actually happens) 241203-001554 & 241203-001566

First i crafted 80 poisons at home (as i have all them crafting stations deployed at my primary house) and fulfilled "Craft 50 items" goal,
but despite this was done inside a house, "Craft 25 items inside your home" increases only by 1 (should be all 25, as 80 is greater than 25)
then i crafted a fish stick to check if provisioning works OK. it added +1. i made 10 more fish sticks in one multicraft operation, but got +1, not +10

So, in my humble point of view, the pursuit "Craft 25 items inside your home" does not account number or items created in one crafting act, though it should.

Workaround: fellow players, craft items at home one by one, not to waste extra materials to the bug.

Same thing happened to me, I crafted a few stacks of potions in my house. The Craft 50 pursuit popped right away, but on 9/25 for the, "Craft 25 items inside your home," Pursuit.

i multicrafted 25+ robes and it completed the pursuit.
maybe the bug is with Consumables like Foods and Potions.

most likely.
my first idea was to craft poisons, because of x16 multipler from passives crafting from 4 batches would result in 64 poisons
i did 80 and at that moment noticed the issue. send my first bug report
then i moved to the provisioning station and tested what happens with the food items. the bug was there.
i will check on my other accounts if the issue arises only for Consumables, but not with Durables.

I wonder if this is the same communication issue with endeavors, such as when they say "afflict 125 enemies with weapon poisons" but really mean "proc weapon poisons 125 times (even if that's the same enemy)."

There are also issues with the descriptors for stealing items from the environment. The descriptions say one thing, but the counters go by another.

Thank you, @LunaFlora

i specially checked at PC NA (i also have a house with Crafting stations there (as initially i discovered the error at PC EU))

You were correct: Blacksmithing, Tailoring, Woodworking, Jewelcrafting, and Enchanting are accounted correctly.
The issue is with Alchemy and Provisioning.

Hey all, thank you for reporting this. We can confirm that Alchemy and Provisioning multicrafting are not correctly counting toward this Golden Pursuit, and that is not intended. The workaround for now is crafting Alchemy and Provisioning items one at a time when doing so for this Golden Pursuit.

Yep, I noticed this too. I craafted 100 tripots and it counted as one. I ended up making my most used foods 1 at a time.

Good to know heads up. Thank you!

Thank you, @ZOS_JessicaFolsom

hope this will be fixed. i cannot call it a serious bug, just a small annoyance.

To add somewhat to this, it seems that not only the multicrafting for Alchemy and Provisioning are miscounting, but also for other crafts. A Woodworking daily, for example, might ask for two bows/staves and one shield, but only counts as having crafted two items and the Jewelry writ for 2 necklaces or 3 rings only counts as 1 item. This is what's happening while using Lazy Writ Crafter.

If crafting all stuff for all writs were counting properly, one full set of dailies should increment the counter by 15 or 16 (3 items each for Blacksmithing, Clothing, and Woodworking, 2 or 3 items for Jewelry, 2 items for Provisioning, 1 item for Alchemy, and 1 item for Enchanting).

Looking at it somewhat humorously, perhaps it's typo which should actually be "craft 25 times" rather than "craft 25 items"?

It does not count the amount of crafted items (4x food or 16x poisons during one button press with Crafting passives). It literally counts how many times you manually push a button at crafting stations.

This also affects furnishings. I just crafted 15 lamps in my house and it counted as 1. @ZOS_JessicaFolsom

Thank you, @Balastar. Passing that along to make sure it's noted in the bug write-up.

Always test before expecting the game to work properly.

DewiMorgan · December 2024

I was unaware of this bug, so completed it by crafting 10 daggers, then 15 daggers (because was short on inventory space). Worked for me.
So smithing may be unaffected?

freespirit · December 2024

Can confirm that some furnishings seem to need to be crafted one at a time. 😕

However I cannot remember if on the first account that I did this one the items were made at the alchemy and provisioning stations!

Thanks for this! I just assumed it was supposed to work this way and went thru my green provisioning list making just one until I hit 25. Works but is very slow :-)

It appears to work fine with multi-crafting by means of Blacksmithing, Tailoring, Woodworking, Jewelrycrafting and Enchanting.

The issues arise when multi-crafting by Alchemy or Provisioning, presumably related to the multi-crafting skills. Perhaps they tried to fix the issue where making 1 poison would count as 4 items (because it makes 4 poisons), or even 16 items (4 poisons, multiplied by 4 because of skill points) - or making 1 regular potion or cooking 1 food or drink could count for 4 points based on how many skill points you'd spent in crafting multiple - and overcompensated by making *no* multi-crafting work at all for these items in Golden Pursuits.
