Crafting items for a Different School

I have fire, balance, and death legendary wizards. The fire wizard is a grandmaster artisan. Neither of the others craft. When I (fire) craft items for my balance wizard the recipe usually calls for Hydra Treasure Cards, five for what I'm making now.

My fire wizard can't buy the recipe because he's fire and my balance wizard can't buy it because she's never crafted. I tried creating treasure cards by putting gargantuan on a regular hydra BUT I can't trade those :(

I'm reduced to begging in the Commons :(

Any thoughts?

Had sorta the same problems making grassy mounds for Watchtower Hall.
I decided it was easier just to do the crafting quests on the Life wizard, use the shared bank.

Well, I have a couple suggestions!

First, craft a good treasure card in your school and trade it!

Second, stay at the bazaar and keep refreshing the balance treasure card page, because they do get sold from time to time!

Finally, farm the Ravens in GH, they sometimes drop them!

Not yet. There is one slot left in the badges page for another level of crafter, but that is to come in the future I fear.

The only answer currently is to do the crafting quests to the level of the card and pass it via friends.

Ask a balance wizard to make them for you and in exchange you can make them some cards they can't.

You can also get some hydra cards through drops at the ravens (final battle) in GH.

You may be able to get hydra cards from elder plants, but I am not sure which ones.

You could do the begging in the commons or you could try to search the w101 forum (www.wizard101central.com) for people who are willing to possibly trade or give you one.
