QuoteBeastmaster will have the benefit of getting more to do with Call Beast.  In the next Version Update, they want to soften the rarity and price of Call Beast items so Beastmasters can use them more freely.

They also made Synergy versions of the recipes which I believe can yield multiple stacks of jugs with HQ.  Not 100% on that.

Oh, just to clarify on this, since nothing was really said on it for a while:

What they -really- did is twofold.  First, mobs can drop a lot of the rarer ingredients for some of the jug synths.  It used to be nearly impossible to find Moles on the AH for Mole Broth because they were mining yields people always tossed.  Now you can slaughter mobs and get them, and the drop rate on most is reasonable.

The second thing they did, is make the Synergy versions of the jug recipes always yield HQs.  Like, for example, the Synergy version of Meat Broth always makes 2 Sabers minimum.  And you can get HQ results to increase the yields.  Even more lucrative is the fact that the "newer" jugs (Allie, Chucky, Lars, Audrey) make SIX jugs per base synth and 12 if you HQ.

Thanks to these developments, using jugs that used to be pricey and on the rare side, such as Allie, is a lot easier.  Even some of the older jugs like Sabers can be created in large quantities without having to depend on how the HQ Result Craft Gods are treating you that day.

Yeah, I've been lurking the Alla boards, and it seems like a fairly reasonable compromise between selling HQ jugs dirt cheap @ NPCs(zzz) and the old way (grr).

Unfortunately, any time I log in lately, I see how much time it would take to even begin to catch up, and I don't have the energy for it.
