Help!

Let me start by saying that the Crafting forum is locked for some reason, so I am posting here.



I can't get the quests to get crafting over 40. Ive gone to every NPC
that could have the quests. I even dropped skills to 20 that I thought
may have been getting in the way. Its not the problem. How do I either
fix this glitch, or drop all crafts to 0? I put in a ticket about it,
but dont want to wait 3 months for a response that will make me want to
fly to Germany and "fix it my way".

gathering:

you can only have only two from 21-40
you can have a third up to 20
out of the ones with 21-40, one can become expert (max 60) master(80) and further up to legend(100)

crafting:

4 up to 21-40 (and the other 2 only up to 20)
2 out of this 4 can become 41-60 aka expert, and one expert can be further upgraded to master and legend.

so if you try to have all professions on one character as high as possible you are limited like this:

gathering:

1x max level20
1x max level40
1x max level100 (your second "max level40" continued up to 100)

crafting:

2x max level20
3x max level40
1x max level100 (the 4th "max level 40" continued up to 100)


the problem is that there are cross-checks between gathering and crafting and it will not let you continue at some point if you have higher levels in gathering from old times in heffner. it wont even let you continue on the non-gather crafts then.

Its not totally consistent ( i need to check what the latest finds where...) atm but basically if you are overleveld in gathering it will cross-block the other crafts too.

Is there a way to completely unlearn a skill? such as mining? or alchemy?

the npcs that can level you up can also level you down - you wouldnt need to completely erase any profession, just get them to maximum 20. but i would not try it with a "maybe not needed" one on level60 tbh. cant be too long until under usual circumstances 6.0.2 would be due maybe it has some minor fixes for this stuff already.

That's how it should be and far as I know how it always has been, but apparently it's not always how it is right now.

I had a friend on Osha message me a day or 2 ago asking if I knew what was going on, because she had taken one gathering skill quest to be able to raise it past 40, then the other gathering NPC quest markers went gray and told her when chatted with that only 1 gathering skill can be raised past 40.

At the time I thought she may have just been a lil confused about what she was doing, but perhaps not.

'Makes me glad that all of my in-play toons have all their gathering skills 60+.

Faced this issue yesterday, started gathering on a new alt, no professions at all, so I got herb/woodc past 20 (craftsman), but when I got mining, was not able to, I even thought was because I crashed a few moments prior to talk with npc, but seems to have an issue here.

the npcs tell you what the limits are. for new toons the new limits are working - the issues are with old characters and especially with those who were able to level almost everything up to 60 back in heffner as that worked.

@Lemo: no you cant since 6.01. You still HAVE them if you had them before but it will block you from progressing anywhere in other professions now. Just check the varanas npcs.

I'm waiting on a response on my ticket. Had to start a new toon. I will update this post when I hear from them and encourage others to do the same, as I see I'm not the only one experiencing this problem. Thanks everyone.

I am having this issue now too. On an old toon I have:

cooking at 80+
alchemy at 60
herbalism at 60
mining at 45
woodcutting at 60+


On my new toon I have:
alchemy at 47
herbalism at 40
mining at 40
woodcutting at 25

and on my new toon I can only get one gathering skill past 40..by doing a quest in varanas east it will cancel out any other lvl 40 gathering quest I have and grey out any I havent picked up

Nerf ~ 77W/77M/60R (Retired)

Was there any reason given why it was done so? I mean i understand logically one person can't have too many crafting skills, but there shouldn't be a limit to what someone can gather. I hope they remove the gathering limitations as its a support function to the main craftings.

Yesterday I acidentally figured it out. Problem here is, new crafting system violates the most basic game mechanics rules. What I mean is when u achieve a certain level to obtain some quest, it becomes blue / yellow / red, but all crafting quests even for new gatherers still keeps gray on both minimap and actual npc, you have to go check if its avaiable by clicking on npc itself.
