History
Bulk Order Deeds (commonly abbreviated as BOD) were introduced for the Blacksmith skill on November 30, 2001. The concept behind it was to create a system in which crafters could make goods for NPCs and get rewards. It was originally intended that all craft skills would eventually see BODs. But after the addition of Tailor BODs in Publish 16, the development team decided the system was not performing as originally intended. It is unclear whether BODs will ever be added for another craft skill. See also, Publish 19 - Bulk Order Books.
Overview
In order to get a BOD, you must have at least 0.1 in the required skill. To receive one you go up to the proper NPC and open a contextual menu. Select the get BOD now option. If it is time you to receive a BOD a gump will appear detailing what the NPC wants you to make, how many of the desired item, and any special requirements. You can either decline or accept the order. If it is not time for you to receive a BOD, the NPC will tell you so with the remaining time in minutes. You may only request a Bulk Order every 6 hours or can turn one in to reset the timer and get another immediately.
Types of BODs
There are currently two types of BODs, small and large.
Small
The Small BODs (sometimes abbreviated SBOD) require only that you make one item. Once completed you may turn in the BOD right away to the appropriate craft NPC.
Large
Large BODs are where you get the most desirable rewards. In order to complete a Large BOD (sometimes abbreviated LBOD), you must collect all the smaller BODs it requires. This is what makes them so difficult to complete. Once you have collected all the nesessary small BODs, you fill them and add them to the large BOD. Once complete, turn in the large BOD to the appropriate craft NPC.
