Blacksmith's additive and Master Crafter's Additive

How to obtain them exactly, anybody knows?

Dear friends! Pay attention that I am NOT asking about Master Additive or Artisan Additive stuff (These two are sold on brokerage, the first drops from boxes via keys and the second one available from EMP shop)

So I am asking EXACTLY about Blacksmith's additive and Master Crafter's Additive and their "secret" versions (Blacksmith's secret additive; Master Crafter's secret Additive; with 100% crit rate per use), because they are available to use on my craft screen, but I have no idea how to obtain at least one of these 4 versions! Any help here, please?

    Those have been there since....IDK, ninja patch? They are not obtainable in any shape/form in our version atm...otherwise, you'll see loads of perm etching flood the market.

    would be silly to waste them on t3 etchings tbh

    even if you didn't factor in t4 from hh, qf brooches would still hold a high price due to the tear costs

    Since there's no T4 recipe yet as far as I know, I dont' see how that's "silly", lol. Only thing that's worth more than etching is the brooch. Yet, even then the resource to create one is more scarce than etching materials...in my server at least. Consider how all the other crafting professions are dead, I'm not sure how it's silly not to use it if it does exist.

    TL;DR: You can't for now.

    It is silly, you can just buy a etching box off the broker and have a chance to get the one you want. Crafting is dead, get used to it. Also, 3 etching boxes = one T3 etching. There's no reason to even go T3 anymore.

    When you buy t3 it's guaranteed though, where as buying that much in boxes is rng. It wouldn't be so bad if they removed the etchings that aren't used at all though, at least if you played more than one class that is.

    t4 etchings should be tradable just like t3 is.

    stop staking rng on rng. it's getting out of hand.

    I have all crafting mastered, is weak but not dead. Don't lie.
  • So we cant even obtain those... Why they are in the crafter's screen in the first place then?...

    Thanks for the answers tho!
  • The superior additives are fairly present on Tera EU, and they can be obtained from special Ghillieglade chests (the cancer around opening them is a different issue, since you do that by either being elite or buying the item needed from the cash shop). The way it reflected on their economy is that t3 etchings are like ~35k or so. However, Quatrefoil brooches still hold their price, being listed for way over 300k.

    It would be nice if we got them on NA, even as an elite perk, since t3 etchings are not BiS anymore, and having a few more Quatrefoil brooches on the market would make the prices lower, and thus more accessible, since there are new brooches as well.
