Tristan hits the crafting tables.

After a long reagent hunting with X, looking for pearls in CL, Tristan finally made Grandmaster Artisan. It took me a bit longer to actually get all the pearls I needed since X kept getting golden pearls. >.< But, I took some screenies of me making my seal of the seven seas, as well as my tea set for the training point. So, yes, Tristan had finally hit the crafting tables once again. Now that I'm actually Grandmaster in it, I don't know what is next for him, but, I do know there is tons of items that I wanted to craft just for his houses alone. To be honest, I never thought that we would make it this far since the CL GM quest despite it was only one, seemed like such a lot of work to do. Reagent hunt, transmute, hunt, transmute, hunt and transmute. o.O I don't remember having this much trouble even with DS but, I guess thats the point of the crafting system. Making it more difficult. Although, I'm probably the only one that actually enjoys crafting despite the hardness of it.

Grandmaster Artisan at last!

 Never thought I'd make it this far, but alas I have, woot. And so close to GM Gardener too, yay. All on my main alt, of course, Kieran Storm. However, Adrian and Ryan are both closely tied doing the DS crafting quests, and Adrian rank 8 gardener. Ryan is my lowest gardener, rank 2, but that's because I only a couple days ago actually started gardening on her, lol. Took a lot of time reagent hunting to make it this far, and if only Pink Dandelions were out when I needed them! Ha. S'all good though. Oh no, I need to get the recipe for my Legendary stuffs doh, just remembered.

Master Artisan at LAST!

It's only taken a literal year to get here. No, I'm not joking either. At least, I think it's been a year. Well, its at least been as long as crafting has been out, that I've been trying to make it to Master. I've been stuck at Initiate (guessing that's the one before master, I've had it for so long that I can't remember what it was) for the longest time. Probably 9 months. The others didn't take near as long (obviously if it's been only a year) to reach the next level. Unfortunately in the process, if you can remember as posted here earlier this year I have had a couple set backs a long the way.

In the long run, I've probably lost, misplaced, and or sold many crafted quest items or their reagents, meaning more grinding and crafting for me. As for Z, we were in MB I believe it was when crafting was first introduced in to the game, and unlike myself, he was selling all the reagents he came in contact with. I was smart, and saved them all. :P It wasn't until we were about half way through with Mooshu, or maybe just into Dragonspyre did he decide he wanted to craft. Why? Well, he saw all the awesome stuff you could make if you had that darn badge! As if it isn't hard enough collecting the reagents for the stuff you WANT to craft, you have to find the reagents for stuff you really could care less about, and wont be able to keep in the long run.

Fair? Meh.

Don't really care because I HAVE MY MASTERS CRAFTING BADGE!

Oh no though...Celestia is out, and that means...

GRANDMASTER CRAFTING BADGE, OR GRANDMASTER ARTISAN! *dies*

Lol, jk. I didn't really die. I'm just soooo tired, but very very proud and excited of and for myself.

So to answer this post topic here, I have written this post. Yes, I will, and I HAVE. Can you tell I'm excited? ;)

Here is the end of my long waits finale:

 

 

Woot, here it is folks. Right there under my name!

And of course, went straight to our twitter friends and fellow #Twizards around and asked where I could go to start working towards Grandmaster! You all rock for tweeting replies!

Up next is a little treat, sort of lol. Z and I decided it would be neat to try out Xfire and see if we can't make some videos to share with everyone. Decided to test it out with Tristan requesting to learn to be a grandmaster artisan himself. Enjoy!

Hope everyone continues to enjoy this awesome game, and that you are all in good health, spirit and mind.

Happy Wizarding!
