Talk:Recipe

Discussion - 2010

Personally, I think this page could be best utilized talking about what a recipe is, what they use, how to "learn them" (I swear there's something you do after you buy them but before you can use them at alchemiters), and where to buy them instead of displaying the actual recipes. Those are shown with the individual item on their respective pages. - Shoy

These are items more than recipes

Several of the items listed here have no known recipe. -Trying

This page is outdated

Proposed Format

Perhaps we could just link to the "no recipe" category and have a list of "special" recipes (like fiendish ID card) while mentioning that most things have recipes, cause people like interesting tidbits. IMO listing 'em all isn't super useful - the actual recipe (that lists ingredients) is super useful yes, but those are efficiently on individual pages. Where to get the recipe is also on the individual page of the item. I don't think we need to bother ourselves updating the recipe page. I have a similar opinion about List of alchemy paths.

I'd propose something like this for the Recipe page (and I'd propose removing "no recipe" from the costumeinfo, since no costumes currently have a recipe, and I believe that category listing is leftover from the very very early days of costumes, I will do this after this edit actually):

Most Armor, Helmet, Shield, Bomb, Handgun, Sword, and several Trinket items have recipes with a few exceptions, listed here. Most other Arsenal items do not have recipes. Below is a list of items that have unusual recipes, and/or are unusual in that they have a recipe:

Grand Solstice Ring - this trinket requires two preceding 4* items.

Fiendish ID Card - a material. Materials usually do not have recipes.

etc.
