Esca, the fermenting barrel - do you need Alchemy AND Cooking or will either work?

nice writeup! I noticed that on the Iron Weapon 5-part LBODs the reward points are 50-100higher than that of the 6-part. Is that transposition error?

Another thing I am no longer getting is Fame OR Gold when I turn in BOD's....either they changed that or broke it so that needs to be fixed too :)

article says
The first reward is gold. Large BODs have a set gold value by type, while small BODs give gold equal to half its vendor’s value (So, if an object is valued at 200 gold outside, then it would yield 100 gold multiplied by the requested amount). All these rewards will be deposited directly into the character’s bank, with a check given for Large BODs whose gold reward is greater than 60,000 gold.

Im afraid I did not write the article so I cannot answer any questions or take any credit :) I just noticed it had been updated, I'm sure the person who did will be watching this thread, taking in all the feedback and such :) A big thanks to them for all the effort they put in as well.

Yeah check your bank balance before and after you turn a BOD in, no gold...and no fame either.

Working on a tinkering chart as I get/ turn in BODS, will organize it more as I get more.

(Side note, if you could do the charts on the uo wiki like this, it would be MUCH easier to read..either left justify it all, right justify it all, or center it all, as it is now it's difficult to read)

No, it's been that way for over a decade.

Back in the day, after the last BOD reward revision, Tower of Roses ASSUMED it was a transposition, and had the 20 normal 6-parters giving POF 20% and the 5-parter not. However, in actual testing, it's only the 5-parters that do so, and the numbers that used to be given in the EA help (long gone - disappeared about the time that the "Origin.com" migration occurred) reflected this - though it had a number of other errors.

I have been doing those 5-parters for POF, and getting POF, since at least 2005.

This is not my experience. I turned in 2 filled bods after I read this to check, one tailor, and just to be sure that wasn't just 'historic', one tinker. Here's what my system messages said:

I don't have a character on Origin, it's on test center, but I didn't 'bank' the points, that's for straightforward turn in.

I think I understand what has happened. Fame and gold are awarded when you claim the reward, if you bank the points, no reward has been claimed, so you don't get the fame and gold either. I'll log in a char that has some saved points and see what happens when she uses them to claim a reward.

Yup, when she claimed a reward with her banked points she got gold and fame.

You only get gold and fame when you claim a reward - whether that be as a result of redeeming banked points or redeeming a BOD for rewards at the time of turnin. You don't receive gold and fame when you bank them, but when you redeem a reward with some points.
