While browsing Recipe/Equipment shops, it would be nice to have some sort of signification telling us that we already have a certain [Recipe (learned)]/[Item]. It can get tedious sorting out which Recipes you already have.

For example: say I have already learned the Divine Veil Recipe. If I encounter this Recipe in a shop, it would signify that I have already learned it by showing, perhaps, a little scroll icon somewhere on the Recipe's tab (to the left of the price would be a good place it seems). As for any other Items in a shop, Recipes included, it might similarly show a little backpack icon.

Clarification: By the [Recipe]/[Item]'s tab, I don't mean the tooltip. I mean the little rounded-rectangle (displaying the icon, name, and price of the Item), of which you see many of, on the shop interface itself.

Any thoughts?

It shows this just below the name for the recipe and above the stat bar when you mouse over the item in the shop's inventory. There's a pretty clear "Known Recipe" sitting right there if you've already learned it.

Derp, I didn't notice that, sorry. Though, it would be a tad bit nicer if we didn't need to scroll over a Recipe to determine whether or not we've learned it. That is, so you could get an overview of which ones you have learned and which you have not, all at once. Or maybe it's just me?

You can trigger the recipes

You can trigger the recipes window by hitting F5 while in any merchant. However, it mostly covers up the shop's inventory. Perhaps it would be better if we could open this window parallel to the shop inventory.

This is a good idea: I would love to be able to sort vendor windows by "known/unknown" or "have/don't have".

That would also be a very nice option. It would also be great if we could have subsorts. We could sort by, say, "Known/Unknown" and then by "Name", so that the unlearned Recipes show up at the very top in alphabetical order.

This would be nice.
I purchased another Tempered and Ascended Calibur Recipe a few days ago, which I already had bought and learned when I first started playing, I realized after.

Waste of crowns, and no one is going to buy them, due to their omnipresent availability.

For recipes, they could at

For recipes, they could at least put a bright green check mark or something next to the known ones, so its way easy to see without hovering your cursor over it for the item description.

For equipment...there ought to be a line under the icon or something that tells you how many you already have: "X in inventory" or "X in inventory, 1 already bound" if you've equipped it already...
