Creating a New Crafting Recipe Page

Welcome, Drifter!
This guide will help you create pages for crafting recipes — used at crafting stations to produce equipment, accessories, augments, and more.

Steps to Create a New Crafting Recipe Page

1. Create the Page

Use the exact name of the recipe as it appears in the game.
Example: Imbued Copper Greaves Recipe

2. Use the CraftingRecipe Template

On the new page, copy/paste the template below.
If you use the Create Center, this structure will be automatically preloaded:

{{CraftingRecipe
| name = 
| tooltip_image = 

| profession = 
| level_requirement = 
| category = 
| recipe_book = 

| products = 

| component1_name = 
| component1_amount = 
| component1_categories = 

| component2_name = 
| component2_amount = 
| component2_categories = 

| component3_name = 
| component3_amount = 
| component3_categories = 

| component4_name = 
| component4_amount = 
| component4_categories = 

| component5_name = 
| component5_amount = 
| component5_categories = 

| component6_name = 
| component6_amount = 
| component6_categories = 
}}
3. Filling Out Details

  • name: Optional. Leave blank to use the page name.
  • tooltip_image: Upload and enter the file name of the recipe’s tooltip image (omit File:).
  • profession: The crafting profession that uses this recipe (e.g., Outfitter, Weaponsmith).
  • level_requirement: The profession level required to learn this recipe.
  • category: The category shown below the recipe’s name at the crafting station (e.g., Armor Smithing, Weapon Smithing, Refine Minerals).
  • recipe_book: Use Page::Label format to link to the recipe book.
Example: Recipe Imbued Copper Greaves::Recipe: Imbued Copper Greaves
  • products: Comma-separated list of items produced by the recipe.
Use Page::Label format for each product.
Only list base product names — crafted variants will be shown on the product's main page, not here.
  • component1_name – component6_name: Display name for each component slot (e.g., Metal, Strapping, Flux).
  • component1_amount – component6_amount: Quantity required for each component.
  • component1_categories – component6_categories: Comma-separated list of valid material categories.
Each entry will be auto-linked using CategoryLinks.
Example: Strapping, Leather
4. Save the Page

Preview your page and save it once complete!
