I just wanted to point out that this is not the case, since you have been updating this recently.
There is no where one can purchase 60s advanced recipes other than the broker to my knowledge. I know that particular merchant definately does not sell them (standing in front of him as I type this).

Also just a quick note in case you want to be really thorough - the Gathering Obsession quests aren't all interspersed at the different levels.

i think you might have 1 missing.

personally i also use the cranial head piece at level 50. unless you have full mara armor its superior. othmir artisan armor at 90 makes mara gear obsolete. so i dont bother grinding mara faction for new toons anymore.

levels 20, 33, 50, 54 for the tink items.

i think you mean there is no level req to receive quest. they are crafting quests of the level listed and reward crafting exp.

the only requirement is doing them in order. MAYBE you also have to be level 2 artisan? havent checked that.

To be offered the first quest all you have to do is use any harvesting skill. So gather something and Qho sends you a letter.

Actually, you apparently do have to be level 5, either artison or adventurer, in order to get the quest. I've brought in 5 new baby toons since coming back about 4 months ago, and all of them have immediately harvested a node, then tried going to Qho. Some of them get the quest immediately, but I can't remember if they were already level 5 from discos. I had a couple that I know for sure had to be level 5, because Qho (even sent me the letter, but) wouldn't give me the quest, until I turned level 5. I've been really big on getting the harvest quests in my journal, because I wanted to make sure that I could maximize the skillups and harvests as best I can. Since there are so many quests that require harvesting anyway, I try to make sure that I don't have to spend more time than needed on any particular harvest tier. Especially Nek Forest harvesting (ugh!!!).

Nice.
Thanks for your excellent work, Zehl!
