Question re: Starting the Tradeskill quest

[Slyym]

I just started the tradeskills. I've completed the first three items (frog legs, noxious poison, light strike spell) - now I'm onto the Forged Tin Greatsword (<b>Seeking a Profession V</b> quest) and I have a question...I don't see the forged tin greatsword in my recipe list. I've learned that it's a level 6 recipe (from a search on the web) and I have the level 6 recipe book but I can't scribe it yet. I thought that this series of tradeskill quests would take me to each level after completing the...different steps / recipes - like when I completed the frog legs it took me level 2 so that I could make the poison etc.Is there a typo in the name? I saw Forged Tin "Longsword" and a few other Forged tin items - just not the greatsword...or am I supposed to make other stuff to get to level 6 and then scribe it ? Is the Greatsword in the next recipe book?Any info would be appreciated.

<p>You need to be tradeskill level 5 or 6 I believe to scribe and make the tin greatsword. If there is an Essentials recipe book in your inventory you can't scribe yet then crank out a few items for XP until you level, then try again.</p>

You need to get to level 6 to get the greatsword, the quests don't quite tie in with the tradeskill levels. Just make a couple of food items or something and you'll be there.If you examine artisan essentials 6 it should tell you what recipes are in there and you should see greatsword. Also check spelling sometimes its greatsword sometimes its great sword.

I don't think i'd be out of line if I said that there is likely to be a new replacement quest next tuesday (release of RoK)This is based on the long discussion in this non-NDA thread started by the tradeskill dev <a href="http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/posts/list.m?start=0&topic_id=378830�" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">here</a>.
