Looked everywhere, only a few YouTube videos that explain how to get them, but not to do with them. So I have 6, what do I do now?
Sparks are crafting reagents.
If you have a completed spark, either need to have a crafting profession of your own (like mage would use tailoring for armor/inscription for a weapon/jewelcrafting for jewelry) and use it to create a relevant item with it.
If you don’t have the profession, you need to send a crafting work order to someone as setting public order for gear crafts don’t guarantee the best quality, which means you can ask trade for someone who could craft the item you need, or even put in a guild order for a guildmate to craft it. Of course, you’d need whatever materials for the recipe preferably at a decent quality for best results and bam, each spark becomes gear with the exception for 2h weapons that require two sparks.
You need 2 sparks and 250 valorstones to make a thing you need to craft gear. All one merely needs to do is single click on the sparks to make this happen.
For some really stupid reason , the consortium NPC is standing against a wall in Dornagal, on the platform below and to the right of the auction house.
I click on this npc and browse armor until I find something i want , then I type in the reagents it requires in to " say" chat , so I can read it later at the auction house, when i am buying what I need.
If you don’t know any crafters, you can make a public order for armor and a random crafter will make the item for you. You will see the reagent list on the crafting page will include a slot for the sparks , which you select by right clicking .
I feel like the game doesn’t do a good enough job at teaching players how its work order system works and it creates ways to screw yourself out of some gold if you do it wrong.
The new crafting UI is weird. I haven’t really engaged with it since it was released. I remember I spent hours on my leatherworker leveling it, to only seem like it was completely pointless.
It’s too complex for the sake of complexity. There’s no need to hide crafting recipes behind RNG. It’s bad enough to have a stockpile of reagents and materials that largely go unused.
The whole system sucks.
There is no need to write reagents in /say, you can check “track recipe” in work order/crafting window and you have needed reagents on screen.
At least, drop recipes are BoE and we can buy them at AH, avoiding rng.
Omg I never saw that. Thank you!
thanks for tip!
