I found the quickest way to level was to use the Discovery tab.

Basically make a load of basic items (like for a forester, a bronze pistol grip, green longbow staves, etc) and add special glyphs to the mixture on the Discovery tab and it will tell you when you have something. Each discovery is worth like two points and decent exp. Definitely the best way to level crafting and if I can figure it out alone, anyone can :D

EDIT: Hey Knub :)
That's where I got my key too.

What do you mean by a 'special glyph'?
 
Same mate although I rarely get more than 90mins a night, never actually been on WvW yet as the queue is always that long. They REALLY need to sort it out before people get bored of having to wait.

how do you know what components to make though?

Make a handful of each component until the text turns from gold to grey I'm told. Once it turns grey, you're no longer getting the good XP out of it. Any buy making each component that will allow you to discover different combinations of things. For example you can make six of the glove linings because the glove linings can be combined in the discovery with say 6 other things.

Thanks i guess it will be a lot easier once the trading post is working to get my items to craft, Jute Scarps are sooo hard to find!
 
I have to say, playing a mesmer is really annoying - I can't quite work out how I actually want to play the class. So far while looking good on paper, good in videos, when it comes to playing the class I'm not feeling the buzz.

Traiting it up isn't straightforward, and no matter how you build you'll always be spitting illusions out of your backside. :/

I was hoping to focus it around melee, using distortion, reflection and a bit of confusion/blinds for survivability, but filling in the cooldowns just doesn't seem to work.

The thing that's most annoying is unlike the thief, you can't swap to the same weapon set and reset the cooldown, which forces you to use two different weapon sets and cycle through a preset order of skills. So I can't use S/F + S/F, and do fun things like two blurred frenzies back to back, or two temporal curtains back to back. Add to that the trait that gives signets one second of distortion - but all the signets are rubbish compared to the glamour skills so a waste to trait up for them.

The offhand sword is just another illusion machine and not much of a melee weapon. And I can't use Pain Inverter in PvP (asura racial skill) which is another nail in the coffin. :(

The visual/sound effects are still very nice, but it's not easy to focus (ha ha) the traits/skills to be good at one or two things only, especially melee distortion. Back to the thief methinks.
 
Looks like I have my account back but I don't know the password. I hope they email me saying how to get back in game.
 
Oh my god, who else has seen Krewe apprentice Jerr "The Golem" down below in Rata Sum? :D

That's some fan*******tastic dancing animations right there!
 
Finally get to wear my vigil set :)

Level 16 warrior,should I be crafting seriously or leave it a while longer?

I've found crafting in GW2 much more viable and useful than in any other MMo.

If you choose professions that are useful to your class you can make some really decent items that will last quite a long time.

One major thing about crafting, it's actually quite fun !
