Ingredients
There are 24 different cooking ingredients, and they can be acquired via different means depending on your progress in the story. Here are the most reliable ways to stock up on each one.

After September 25, most cooking ingredients will be stocked at the main material shops in Grand Trad (General Store, Water Merchant, and Meat Butcher), with some exceptions. I will not list them in the table below to avoid causing confusion as to what is available in Grand Trad early on, versus what the stores stock later in the game.

Skullduggery is available around late June, and should be accessible until the tomb closes at the end of July. I'll need to do some repeat runs to check when exactly each quest can be accepted.
NecroMaster 16 Jun @ 8:09pm 
Can you please post when the quests start.

Allegedly skullduggery is supposed to be available on July 29th but he simply isn’t there and not only is he not there I can’t even go into the tomb anymore on that point.
HayateButler  [author] 12 Jun @ 12:20pm 
You can simply select any campfire and depart to there to only spend half a day traveling. In this case, I go with the one along the route to the Land of Ceremony.

As for how to get the Queen's Honey Jar, here's the preset list of answers to get 2 of them when fishing (the bait only affects what fish you get):
- Maybe it's all this staring at the water's surface, but... I'm starting to feel a bit queasy.
>> Think like a fish.
- Yaaawn... Ah, I'm more tired than I realised. Hmm... How do I shake this?
>> Give in to naptime.
- Hmm. Nothing biting. Perhaps if the bait were moving...?
>> Thrash and splash.
dschepler 12 Jun @ 11:01am 
Could you give some hint as to exactly how to get Queen's Honey Jar from fishing? That's all that remains for me to finish the last recipe. (Also, in the late game, the only way I've found to force sea travel takes up two days - is there something obvious I'm missing there?)
HayateButler  [author] 2 Jan @ 9:54pm 
It's mentioned in the Ingredients subsection of Cooking . They're added to Grand Trad's material shops alongside a bunch of other ingredients after September 25. When you get to that point in the story, you can read about where every ingredient can be found by purchasing the related notes from the informant at the Hushed Honeybee Inn.
Technomagus 2 Jan @ 9:27pm 
Exciting Discovery: Lumibees and Dreameater Moths can be purchased from the Grand Trad Item shop. Not sure of the requirements, but I was able to buy them in October (Every Follower but Basilio was Level 8), and they were only 30 each on Idlesday
B00M1NAT10N 4 Dec, 2024 @ 11:41pm 
Thank you so much, that was the solution. It unlocked automatically on 27/07 when Charadrius wasn't infiltrated before...don't really get why that is, but okay :YuNarukami:

Now the only 2 entries that i'm presumably missing are Pagan Faith (I know that you have to talk to the Mustari in Brilehaven before reaching Virga) and Dragon Crystal.

I hope Dragon Crystal isn't as "complicated" to get, maybe i have to do that before clearing the temple as well, i shall see.
HayateButler  [author] 4 Dec, 2024 @ 12:27pm 
From what I recall, you're required to not infiltrate Charadrius prior to that day, then talk to one of the NPCs in Brilehaven to unlock the entry. See if that helps.
B00M1NAT10N 4 Dec, 2024 @ 12:03pm 
Does anyone know or remember where to get the Memorandum entry for "Forgiveness Day"? I tried looking it up in multiple threads and on reddit, bu i can't seem to find a concrete answer.

I spoke to everyone near the fountain in Brilehaven as many mentioned, but i still dont get the entry.

Its one of the last 3 entries that i'm missing and i'm currently "stuck" on 27/7 because i dont want to miss that entry.
Clue 18 Nov, 2024 @ 11:48am 
JackDestiny01

Any idea how you got -7/27 NPC near Brilehaven's fountain. "Forgiveness Day" ?
I cant get it somehow
