Master Writs are mysterious, exclusive contracts for high-quality and very specific equipment, or very specific alchemical substances, enchantments, or provisions.
Where do I get Master Writs from?
Master Writs can occasionally be found in the rewards from finishing a maximum tier, regular crafting Writ.
Who can do Master Writs?
Not just anyone! Master Writs are meant specifically for masters – they require specific sets, or specific crafting styles, that not everyone has access to. Further, Master Writs are only awarded to players completing the hardest normal crafting Writs, and are more common when you have a lot of dedication. For example, Blacksmithing, Woodworking, and Clothier Master Writs are more common if you’ve done a lot of difficult research; Provisioning Master Writs are more common when you’ve learned a lot of difficult recipes; Enchanting Master Writs are more common when you’ve translated a lot of runes; and Alchemy Master Writs are more common when you’ve fully identified a lot of herbs. The more you’ve done in that tradeskill, the better your odds on each normal Writ you complete.
How do I complete Master Writs?
Pay close attention to the requested items. You’ll need to make the item yourself, on the character that has the Master Writ quest. Requested items cannot be traded between characters to satisfy these, and the items cannot be bound.
How many can I do per day?
As many as you have the invitations for. There is no daily limit or cooldown on Master Writs.
Additionally, you can trade Master Writs around to people who are more likely or able to complete them. You could even get them on your alts and trade them back to your ‘main crafter’ if you have one, or host a festival with friends to trade Master Writs all day.
Add three reagents with at least two of each of the requested effects to oil (poison) or water (essence). You’ll need to craft 20 potions (4 at a time) or poisons (16 at a time) to complete the writ.
