**You will need to request a Client Secrect from me (PLEASE keep this private, if client secrects get shared it'll invalidate the whole app on GGG's side)**

- Go to Settings > Request client secrect > Enter your DiscordName#1234 (this is how I'll reach you)
- Enter the client secrect and then attempt to log-in (top left) 
- One logged in select your Chaos Recipe tab from the dropdown menus (only supports a single tab right now)
- Then select how many recipe sets you are aiming for before turning them in (I recommend 4-8 but NO less than 2)

# Why Chaos Recipe
As many wealthy players have already said; the chaos recipe is a trap. They suggest that it's simply not time efficient. If you spend 30 minutes just farming unidentified items to complete 2x chaos recipes then thats roughly 8chaos/hour. The argument is that in an hour of running T1 rolled maps you should easily make more than that. *WHICH IS TRUE* 

However, there are some cases where I'd venture to ammend that sentiment. There are definitely times when chaos recipe is still helpful. For these edge cases there are things you should and shouldn't do to make it worth your time:

**You should NOT . . .**

- **Do NOT** have chaos recipe as your only/primary objective as you play *(As a rule of thumb)* 
- **Do NOT** waste your time selling identified sets ( 1c instead of 2c is almost NEVER worth it in trade leagues )
- **Do NOT** waste your time selling recipe in single sets

**You SHOULD . . .**

- **Do** passively collect choas recipe items and just toss them in a dump tab
- **Do** keep your jewlery unidentified in trade leagues ( Statistically 2c is almost ALWAYS able to buy you a better ring/amulet than what you will ID )
- **Do** collect a minimum of 2x complete recipe sets before selling them as you can fit 2x complete sets in your inventory

**Edge cases . . .**

- You may need to continue chaos recipe if you play SSF (Solo Self Found) and you need chaos for crafting or map device
- Early in every league the trade value of chaos is still relatively strong (good value for invested time) so for the first week it's still worth your time if you do it efficiently and passively
- If you are a new player and you aren't fast or efficient and some basic currency to improve your gear would help you progress (remeber to aim to outgrow chaos recipe as your income source)
