WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Where to farm
Crafting Orders interface, Patron Work Orders.
Check the Patron Work Orders board for requests that explicitly show a knowledge reward. Complete only orders you can satisfy with current recipe access and materials, then confirm the reward before spending the knowledge. Order availability and catch-up rewards can vary by character progress.
Recipe access and materials for the selected order.
Access to the Crafting Orders interface.
Open Crafting Orders and switch to the Patron Work Orders list for your profession.
Inspect the displayed reward on each available order and identify those granting profession knowledge.
Review the requested recipe, optional materials, and quality conditions before accepting.
Gather or purchase materials you lack and craft the requested item.
Submit the completed order through the interface.
Confirm the knowledge reward and check the profession journal before selecting another order.
Farming tips
Not every Patron order offers knowledge; read its reward panel before investing time or materials.
Catch-up orders may remain for characters behind the knowledge cap, so check the board if progression stalls.
Repeat, collect and use
Orders are available according to the in-game board and progression state; knowledge rewards are not an unlimited farm. Stop when the weekly knowledge rewards you want are exhausted.
Common mistakes
Assuming every order gives points can waste materials; select only orders with a visible knowledge reward.
Accepting an order without recipe or material access can leave it unfinished; inspect requirements first.
Assuming buying more materials creates more knowledge rewards ignores board limits; verify remaining eligible orders.
When to stop or switch
Stop when no available order offers knowledge you need or when required materials exceed the reward’s value; revisit the board as availability changes.
