Welcome to Guild Wars 2!
Well, let's get started in a land called "Tyria". Oh, you already know all about Tyria? That it is absolutely HUGE. You can play a number of races, and then can be any of a select group of Professions (FKA "Classes" in World of Warcraft) regardless of your race. Once this is all set up, you get to start exploring your world. Long before you start a Craft, you'll notice herb, lumber, and ore nodes scattered throughout your starting zone in this epic world. Unfortunately, you do NOT start with anything that you can actually use to pick these nodes, and the scythe/axe/pick prices are high enough to dissuade the purchase of them until you've gained a few levels.
Enough of my prattle. This blog is dedicated to process of the various methods of crafting, and material locations in Guild Wars 2. The primary goal will begin as locations of materials, as there are already crafting guides out there. The secondary goal will be crafting descriptions of each recipe, not only what it takes to make something, but what the recipe is ultimately "worth" and the actual stats of the items created (assuming I can find the information in the first place).
With that being said, this is my first "post" and I look forward to updating this blog in the near future!
