Any word on what % bonus it is? Xdeadzx (talk) 01:46, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

15% Base Crafting Bonus[edit]

Compared characters on two accounts, nominally both representing the same guild, both level 80 with discipline level 0 armorsmith. Both crafting a Bolt of Jute.

  • N = 0

Based on the Crafting page, a Bolt of Jute has:

  • N_min (Requirement discipline level) = 0
    • XP_req(level 0 + 1 ==> level 1) = 500
  • Crafting type = Refinement
    • Multiplier 0.3
    • Span 25

Calculated XP gain:

  • xp_gain(N) = xp_req(N+1) * multiplier * (1 - (N - N_min) / span)
  • xp_gain = 500 * 0.3 * (1 - (0 - 0) / 25) = 150

Account with no masteries:

  • 150 Crafting XP. No crafting bonus.

Account with full masteries:

  • 172 Crafting XP. No crafting bonus.

Now based on the text of this mastery being +10%, I would have supposed that I should receive an extra 15 XP (for a total of 165). However, I've instead received 22 XP (equivalent to circa +15%). I've taken the wild assumption that none of my other mastery tracks are providing any benefits, and that this mastery is providing an extra +5%.

Added bug note based on this. -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 17:40, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
