Discoverable Recipes
Good morning. I noticed you have been trying to add Discoverable tags to a few crafting boxes. Unfortunately, this isn't something that these are currently configured to handle, as there was no reason to separate them from Re-Teachable. You noted in the Discoverable page that this is no longer the case; can you note where you found this information, and some examples of recipes that are Re-Teachable that cannot be discovered?

If this is something that needs to change, it will require significant rework of the crafting box template, and additional information on all of the current pages. Due to this, please don't edit any other pages with this information; if you want to note what you've found, please consider adding a note to the Talk page for an item (click Discussion at the top of the page).

Thanks! --Browncoat Jayson (talk) 12:53, 4 February 2020 (UTC)


 * I will start adding citations, here is one that is only somewhat helpful:
 * "Crafting Recipe Discoverability Limited (Experiment): Discoverability on Recipes is no longer universal to all recipes. Currently we have removed Discoverability from all but the lowest-level recipes. This, along with Teachability, is part of a larger effort to reward specialization and advancement in crafting by having different levels of rarity in the recipes. We will not be removing any recipes that players already have. Those will be grandfathered in. Please note that this an initial pass on which recipes should or should not have Discoverability. If there are any recipes you feel should have remained discoverable (and therefore also Teachable) then please feel free to provide us that feedback and we will consider it. Note that by limiting recipes this way and not making them universally available we can start to increase the value and power of components and items." https://store.steampowered.com/news/?appids=326160&enddate=1480579200&appgroupname=Shroud+of+the+Avatar%3A+Forsaken+Virtues
 * "Then they dropped the discovery process altogether and just scattered recipes all over the world which was just annoying since you might know the recipe for every type of ingot except one.. but god forbid you could just put the proper items in the crafting block and discover it.... instead you had to search all over the world for the proper vendor that sells the recipe, or more recently, get lucky and get it as a drop from grinding. There is just nothing fun about that." https://www.reddit.com/r/shroudoftheavatar/comments/7p7i3t/state_of_the_game_sota_at_adv_lvl_100_3/
 * "I could be wrong, but I believe most recipes are no longer discover-able but instead require you to purchase (or find someone who can reteach) them which makes having a wiki or website with the ingredients somewhat obsolete." https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/forum/index.php?threads/finding-recipes.116268/


 * The first is from when recipes were originally split into Non-Teachable, Teachable (but Non-Discoverable), and Re-Teachable (and Discoverable). The others just seem to be anecdotal, mostly due to splitting the single recipe (i.e., Metal Sheet) into separate recipes for each type (Iron Sheet, Copper Sheet, Bronze Sheet, etc). It doesn't change that if they are Re-Teachable they are Discoverable.
 * So if you do have specific situations that I can look at that shows a recipe is Re-Teachable, but cannot be discovered (or alternatively, a Non-Teachable or Teachable recipe that CAN be discovered), please let me know. --Browncoat Jayson (talk) 16:35, 4 February 2020 (UTC)


 * Hey there! I replied on my Talk page, but since you wouldn't get a notification there I thought I'll note it here as well. I've created a Learning topic and linked everything there. Hopefully that will help. Thanks! --Browncoat Jayson (talk) 17:26, 6 February 2020 (UTC)
