Chaos Descending Crafting Timeline

Notes

1. 1.
   You need to be at least a level 110 Artisan to start the quest line. As of 2025, you need to have purchased the requisite expansions to begin anything past 110 adventure or tradeskill. You will not receive the mails with access items and your AA bar will be locked at 100% conversion to prevent further level advancement.
2. 2.
   Bringing portable crafting stations can save you a HUGE amount of time.
3. 3.
   Some quests of the signature questline reward with recipes for 90 Resolve weapons, but the primary component drops from raid mobs.
