Specialization Quest
At level 11 you are given a quest allowing you to choose a specialization within you parent tradeskill.
Artificers can pick Minerologist or Carpenters, Outfitters can pick Leather worker or Tailor, and Blacksmiths can pick Armor Smith or Weapon Smith.
Once you pick a specialization, or sooner if you know which route you plan to take before hand, you should set the option that you do not choose to negative (the – button on the right of the bar on the skills window). This will push your skill in that other type down to 0 and allow you to put those points back into the two skill types you will need (your parent type and your specialization type). Do not leave points in the type you didn’t specialize in, or you will only hurt your ability to craft items of your specialization as well as delay when you learn new skills.
You may change specializations later on if you choose, but you will lose all recipes, including special dropped rare recipes if you do. If you change within your parent class, such as Tailoring to Leatherworking, you will not lose any skill points but you will need to change the direction of your skills to drive them in the right direction. If you change to another trade entirely, like tailoring to carpenter, you start over at level 1 with 0 skills.
Tier Quests, Recipe Quests, Continental Styles Quests
They are all basically the same thing after level 11. These are the quests that you must complete in order to learn recipes each tier for each continent. You will not need to do the novice continental style quest for your home continent.
PLEASE NOTE: the amateur (level 11) quest is NOT the same thing as the specialization quest. These both take place at level 11, but they are two separate things. Many people assume that because they chose their specialization they are now amateur crafters and should have new recipes, only to be sadly disappointed, not to mention confused.
The Tier quests take place at level 11, 21, 31 and so on, and allow you to learn more recipes from your trainers. Along with the completion of the quest, you gain a new title. From Novice, you go to Amateur, Apprentice, and upward through the ranks until you reach the top of your profession. Expect your crafting profession to change as you increase in level through each ranks, with the process slowly changing and becoming even more complex. For the tier quests you need to do them for each continent to gain recipes on those continents.
Also note: when you are asked to craft an item for these quests, these are not work orders. You must supply your own materials, so be prepared!
Along with unlocking recipes, completing each tier quest gives you 100 continental artisan faction (50 for foreign lands), as well as decent amount of crafting experience.
Note: With the new displaying of all recipes, you will end up seeing recipes that are level 18, 19, 20, etc that require the Apprentice Quest which you can't do till level 21. The reason is, these are not intended to be given to you till level 21, they display the lower levels so that when you do get them at level 21, they are much easier to do than if they would have been marked as level 21 recipes. I know its confusing but they were not intended to be given till you are Apprentice level (and same with later ones).
WARNING: Do NOT get quests for both continents you need at the same time. The recipe used is the same apparently, and if you complete one continent while having both quests, the recipe is removed and you can not finish the other continent quest. You'd have to abandon and restart. You need to either craft all items before turning one in, or do each quest one at a time.

You do not have to do the one for your home continent.

 Quest: "A True Kojani Crafter" Go to Ca'ial Brael to Waltay Bajan, the Blacksmith Instructor there (located in the House with orange windows near the crafting plateau and get the quest called " A True Kojani Crafter ". He will then send you to Veenax Garrison near Martok to get inspired yet again. Fastest way there is to rift to Wildgrowth Forest and rent a flying mount there. Fly Northnortheast to Veenax Garrison on the northern side of Martok. Enter Veenax Garrison and go around the center building. On the back side you'll find a cauldron you can study, so do that and be inspired enough to know pyrite ingots and spear heads now! Return to Ca'ial Brael, craft those ingots and spear heads, and welcome to the initiate Kojan world and yet again a bunch of new recipes, in case you haven't done any other iniate quests. Hint: If you got to 400 faction in Kojan as an outsider, you probably did so in Tawar Galan, which rewards 10 faction for each workorder for Ca'ial Brael and Martok. If not, 21 one piece WO are done quite fast. | ||

 I talked to the BS trainer, Valer Thanul, in Ahgram after turning lvl31, which then gave me the quest called " A True Qalian Crafter ". In it she told me to go to Pankor Zhi to get some inspirations. Not having it on my map I mouseovered and found Pankor Zhi to be the chunk next to Hathor Zhi. So I went via Lomshir to Pankor Zhi, the actual city, where I spend the better half of an hour to search for something to inspire me, nada though. PZ is a nice place to take a stroll, at least if you're a varanjar which are KOS to nothing but Dwarves. Anyways what you need to do is, go to Hathor Zhi entrance and travel south down the road. Stay in the valley! Go past the Bloodletter Arena to the big ruins with the wide stairs. In proximity to those (a tad east I think, but well in viewing distance) you find a burned down tent (for the outfitter intiate quest inspiration) and a handy small ballista, which will inspire you. 72547, 47456, 5097 in Pankor Zhi (-16, -10) Use it and 30secs later you get the recipes for pyrite ingot and the spear head. Return to Ahgram, build three pyrite ingots and then the spear heads. Turn them in and congratulations to your initiate crafter's title and a s***load of new recipes. Hint: Hathor Zhi faction can be gained by killing mobs just north of the HZ gate and Pankor Zhi faction is supposedly gained by doing diplomacy in Lomshir, which I cannot guarantee, since Pankor Zhi has no trouble with Halgarad. I also believe it's possible to get to the ballista from the Hathor Zhi Altar, where you can either evac to or ressurrect to. If you get guard or npc aggro try to get to the chunk border south to get rid of it. PZ guards won't aggro you, if you stay clear of the stairs. | ||

  Head over to New Targonor's crafting district and talk to Godrek, the BS instructor to get "A True Thestran Crafter ". He will send you to Konarthi Point, which is located SE of Halgarad or east of Dakhnarg. I leave it up to everyone how to get across half the continent, being lvl21 adventurer, I headed up north through Shrine of Flames, took an immediate right after entering Three Rivers chunk and followed the river through Spider Bluffs and Forest's Heart, fairly easy ride, only lvl21-24 2d-3d aggro mobs which can easily be avoided. When you enter Leth Nurae chunk, get back on the road and head through to Veskal's Exhange and further on through Valley of Heroes. Pass south through Halgarad once you reach it, and turn left at the bottom of the hill, follow the road all the way to Konarthi Point. In Konarthi Point locate the Finishing Taskmaster. Right behind him is a "round workspace" which will inspire you to craft pyrite ingots and pyrite spear heads. Build them and return to Godrek in New Targonor to receive your new title Initiate Blacksmith and tons of new receipes. Congratulations, Initiate Blacksmith. Hint: For those filthy, lice infected beardwearers, commonly known as dwarves, which are not welcomed in either Halgarad or Dakhnarg, you might try to sneak yourself over the mountains to the east of Halgarad to avoid aggroed NPC's. Bypass Derogar's Post to the south, cut to the east right before Halgarad and head southwards over the mountains a bit more to the east. Good Luck. ;P You could also try to gain our favor by killing mobs east of derogars or the valley south of that. | ||

Tip: For weaponsmiths you create Polished Hafts, which take 2 ingots each, which means 15 combines for this quest. If you can get a higher level smith to make you the ingots, this will save you a lot of time. Otherwise you have to make them 1 at a time, and you need 10 per continent. A level 44+ smith can make them 5 at a time for you, or a 42 smith can make 3 at a time.
