You didn’t think we were only going to cover the Life recipe and not the other schools did you? Well, if you did, don’t worry, we’ve got you covered!
As we mentioned in Part 1, for your second crafting quest, Balthazar Dragonthorn gives you a quest that corresponds with your school. In the first Dragonspyre crafting guide we showed you what the Life School quest would be like, we will be explaining more about the other schools quests in this edition. For Life, the Quest is Needle and the Vine. If you are a Life wizard and have found this article looking for a Dragonspyre Crafting Guide, CLICK HERE.
