[CRAFTING] Question about Crown Motifs, Outfits, Styles, and Alt Toons

LootAllTheStuff · December 20

I recently grabbed the "Crown Crafting Motif 73: Anequina Style" from the store, which I redeemed on my primary crafter. Later the same day, one of my alts received a page for the same style motif, which was marked as learnable. Checking through, I see that the outfit style is unlocked account-wide, but the crafting style is only unlocked on the character "reading" the gold book. Which seems a little absurd on face value, but I guess that's what happens when you pile newer systems on top of older systems...

Which leads to my question: Is it worth taking a style page that your primary master crafter character already knows, and also learning it on a secondary one? As far as I can see, this would only make a significant difference if you wanted to increase the chance of master crafting writs dropping as rewards across multiple characters doing daily crafting writs. Is that correct?

Basically, I'm just trying to figure out if I should use the single page on my secondary, or look to sell/trade it. Any pros/cons to think about?

You have the thinking right, there is limited use to knowing the motif on an alt character /unless/ you want to use them to be able to craft items in that style or as you mention have a greater chance of master writs dropping. I know some people who try to learn motifs on alts, but I have never seen the attraction personally and only learn on my main crafter and sell doubles.

It’s an older style, so the motif pages don’t cost a lot in traders, which means you can’t sell them for much. I typically just pass these down to alts to learn, and only sell the most recent motif pages when I can get more than 10k or more each for them.
