Creator Chronicles Codex & Profession Completion
Use the Codex as a map of gathering and crafting categories. Track discoveries and production progress separately from combat achievements, and use ingredient shortages to choose the next profession goal.
Current reference
What the official sources confirm
- Current Store copy names seven profession/Codex categories.
- Higher profession levels are associated with more valuable crafting and faster resource access.
- Recipes can drop again after discovery in the current patch sequence.
Practical use
What to do next
- 01
Choose one missing category or item instead of treating total completion as a single task.
- 02
Trace the required item to its profession and ingredients.
- 03
Keep a local checklist of discoveries and unresolved acquisition questions.
- 04
Check live recipes before using older screenshots as material lists.
Keep profession coverage distinct from completion
Having one member from each profession is an explicit achievement objective, but it does not establish that every recipe or resource in the Codex has been completed. Track the missing entry and its actual discovery or production requirement separately. A profession assignment can solve a worker shortage while leaving an undiscovered recipe unresolved.
When a Codex entry depends on an item, follow its current acquisition information before committing to repeated runs. Already discovered recipes can still drop under the v1.09 rule; a repeated drop is not automatically evidence that discovery progress was lost.
