Suggestions:

-3kcr for a 2* recipe

-6kcr for a 3* recipe

-12kcr for a 4* recipe

-30kcr for a 5* recipe

Possible other part: Boss recipe vendor exclusive to the 5* Hall of Heroes.

-9kcr for a 3* boss item recipe

-18kcr for a 4* boss item recipe

-36kcr for a 5* boss item recipe

Point of this is to make recipes available to those who want them but to also encourage use of Basil and bring back the mostly-dead recipe resell market.

Even at the increased prices,

Even at the increased prices, the recipes will always be constant. All you'd have to do is one more Jelly/Vana run, and you can buy the recipe.

They should remove the recipes all together and let you test out the equipment, rather than simply handing it to you. There's no real incentive to explore the Clockworks at the moment, save for a chance at getting a Lockbox or finding a Scenario Room.

There is a point where you are wrong.

Recipies like crest of almire, etc are still not available at the HOH. But these go for around 36k cr in the auction house while vog cub cap and coat recipes still go for a lot. Doesnt that prove that not much people do missions for the sake of it??

Dont even think about it. People who support this are just all the low scammers in-game who sell Vog recipes for 50% raise in price. HoH was the best idea ever.

Someone hasn't been playing since before the HoH clearly.

Vog recipes never went for 40k...they were mostly only 5K-10K more expensive than the recipes from Basil.

If they ever went for 40K, I can almost assure you that nobody bought them, and the sellers put the same thing up later when there was more supply in the market for a cheaper price. Just because you saw it in the AH doesn't mean it sold.

I have been playing before the HoH, and it sucked big to get a recipe that was overused since everybody keeps charging way too high prices. i still dont see much change today.

Also i dont care if anybody else buys such a overpriced recipe, I just want myself to buy one that is normally priced. Like the standard price or 2-3k above it. The HoH now gives me that chance.

lol...

2-3K above it?

Would you spend all that time delving into the Clockworks, invest 25,000 crowns in a recipe, then sell it for 2K-3K profit?

The reason people do at least 5k even on a plentiful market is because it's not worth the trouble to sell it at any lower price. Add to that the AH takes 10% out, you have to at least have it 28K-ish just to break even.

What you're asking is illogical. Nobody would've sold any recipes. You're paying for convenience. Don't like it? Run Basil yourself.

The HoH simply took away the player market (for the most part). The remaining boss recipes are so overbought now that most of them are around HoH price. Arguing that the HoH is superior to having a player market because people used to be lazy and buy recipes instead of run Basil for them, doesn't make a lot of sense.
