    Title: Missing Mouseover info when buying recipes from NPC's
    Reproduction Rate: 100%
    Blocker? No
    Details:

    I like the changes you made with the mouseovers on recipes, it seem to be a lot clearer now.

    One thing, however, has been lost with these changes: We cannot see whether we already learned the 'teachable' trait or not (or even 're-teachable', although that is less important).

    We can see whether we have learned the recipe, but we cannot see in the mouseover if we are able to teach it to others. Next to knowing a recipe, this is also an important reason to buy a recipe or not.

    Steps to Reproduce: Mouseover on recipes in NPC buy window

    While not a fix for not having this info on the tooltip, if you already learned the recipe than you should be able to hit "B" to open your recipe book and find the recipe in there. When you do, it should have (Teachable) or (Re-Teachable) next to the recipe name.

    This can be a workaround for that info until it gets added to the tooltip.

    @Jonah Hayes

    Upon internal review, mouseover tooltip text shows whether an item is Teachable or Re-Teachable. Above the line that indicates if a recipe has or has not been learned yet.

    Could you please reconfirm, and if the issue is still present, we may need to better understand the case being described.

    Thank you for reporting.

    We can see if the recipe scroll will give us the Teachable or Re-Teachable trait. The problem is that we cannot see whether the player himself/herself has learned the Teachable trait of a particular recipe.

    We can learn a recipe without learning the Teachable trait from other players. If we wish to be able to teach a Teachable recipe ourselves, we must buy it and learn it from the recipe scroll. The current QA server mouse-over on the recipes does not show if we are able to teach it, only that we know the recipe.

    Before this patch we did see that vital piece of information, so we could assess if buying the recipe would give us the Teachable trait.
