In the MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online you can complete a crafting quest once a day, rewarding you with gold and materials. For many characters, this can take some time, and not everyone is at the same level. Here, we show you useful tips for daily provisioning crafting.
What is provisioning crafting? It involves the creation of drinks and food. These provide strengthening effects that improve your maximum stats or regeneration. The foods or drinks created are generally referred to as buff food.
Once a day, you can complete one quest for each crafting profession. For all quests with a character at level 50 and the appropriate Champion Points, you can earn up to 5,100 gold per day per character. Additionally, you will receive materials and other items as rewards, which also have some value.
Craft items for the daily provisioning quest in advance
To speed things up, it is advisable to create a whole stack of provisioning food and drinks at the appropriate level. By the way, it doesn’t matter which of your characters crafts your food for the quest. You can craft everything with your main character and store it in the bank for all other characters.

This is how to complete your daily provisioning quests the fastest
Once you have stored your appropriate food stacks in the bank, there is one more trick to speed up the process. This works similarly for the daily alchemy quest.
Ideally, this can be optimized with one of the “mobile bankers” and the add-on “Lazy Writ Crafter”. If you have your banker on quick access and speak to him, the add-on automatically retrieves the appropriate food and then puts it away again. This takes a maximum of 1-2 seconds in total.
If you do not have a mobile banker, I recommend the city of Vivec in Vvardenfell for the crafting quests. Because in the middle of the crafting stations, there are 2 bankers. Otherwise, you will have to take detours to reach your stash.
If you have a banker, then the cities of Leyawiin in Dark Forest or Gramfeste in Deshaan are a good choice.
For more gold, set your Champion Points correctly
Once a character reaches level 50, you have access to the champion point system. In the green tree: Dexterous, you can increase the gold earned by up to 2% per level if you allocate up to 50 points in “Gold-Plated Fingers.” The points are cross-character.
