      For TRUE beginners it would be great to see someone detail the levelling up process as they actually do it rather than as a retrospective.
      This video has a wealth of information but as a new player I constantly find that when I try to follow most of the steps here, it leads to a 50-100 hour detour of main quests & side quests in a labyrinth of distraction that EVENTUALLY leads back to being able to follow the step I originally intended...😅
      The whole game (except for the Main Scenario Quests) feels like... I want to do A, but to do A, I must do B, but to do B, I must do C, D & E. C & E are fine, but in order to do D I have to do F!! Now I have completed F, I can do D which means I can do B - but that quest can't be completed until G has reached a certain level..... 60 hours later I complete G but by now I have completed forgotten about A, until I see random TH-cam video talking about A and I say aaaaaaahhh yes, I remember that. 🤯🤯🤯 So back I go to finally complete A, come back to this video to check the next step and I can't do that yet either.... Oh well, back again in another 50-100 hours I suppose...!

      @@orkman198 Glad you appreciated the comment! It's fine for players who have unlocked most content to turn their hand to something else like crafting or gathering, but for new players it's definitely not an option. Best advice I got was to just keep doing the main scenario and by the time that's completed a lot of the extra stuff will be (mostly) ready to try...

    Nice video, however you’re missing a few things. You mention the Studium while skipping out on the fact the same exists for 70-80 in Shadowbringers in the Crystarium, basically free experience. You didn’t really look into Levequests which are an extremely easy and quick way to get XP, especially Temple leves. Even though they cost 10 allowances, they will basically let you skip from 50 to mid 60’s within a few minutes, just make sure to turn in HQ items for the temple leves.
    Oh and. Do. Your. Classquests! Not only do they give XP and gear, they also unlock very important skills you need for high-end crafting.

    Crafting in FFXIV is nearly impossible for someone with ADHD. My brain wants to just do one thing over and over to make levels. The all over the place nature of crafting, from all the ingredients and their locations, all the different scripts/daily + weekly deliveries and tribes/leves/quests, plus the full inventory? it’s a serious challenge.

    For those who want to craft one of everything, one of those websites, Teamcraft, I think?, will generate shopping lists for you. Just input starting and ending levels and the job, for instance level 11 to 20 goldsmith, and it will give you a list of what n how much of each material you need to make one of every item in your log, assuming no failures.

    Fair warning to anyone looking to get into making money + endgame crafting. Everything takes HOURS, so make sure you're caught up on MSQ and drop any other activities, because this is going to take up your entire day. If you want an easier way of making gil that takes less time, then max out your gatherers and check how much raw materials go for on the market board i.e cobalt ore, mythrite sand. Endgame crafting has a million steps to it and newcomers will definitely be overwhelmed. I highly recommend joining a helpful FC who can craft or gather stuff for you, (especially endgame gear) because you will struggle, and of course you need a lot of free time.

    Great breakdown. I'm at level 64ish on all my crafters using Quick synth and then Ishgard Restoration, and this is a nice update to my next steps. I have found only leveling crafters to the point you are in the story prevents burnout. It might be worth mentioning that doing the job quests for each crafter can also provide a bit of extra XP just to mix it up (I said, hypocritically, because I have not done this myself but plan to).

    Thank you so much for this great video, That website is very useful! 👍 Levelling crafters is easy IMO. The biggest issue I had was inventory management. I decided to gather as many of the materials as possible to save gil, as such I needed as many free slots as possible, including in my retainers. Once I had both those things taken care of, I just needed to start crafting. I craft my own gear and tools as much as possible. The one thing I have never done however, is use macros. 😂 Even of you don’t feel like using macros, I recommend you follow the best rotations for your current level. But really, I now have no excuse to not use macros. 😅 Thank you so much! ❤️

Thank you for the time and effort you put into this.
    I struggled with finding a reason to play FFXIV for years since I didn't like combat or running dungeons/raids over and over again. Memorizing fights and rotations felt like homework instead of being a fun, relaxing experience. Being able to craft and gather at my own pace while watching videos and taking breaks to do other things whenever I want made the experience more enjoyable. It's also a great game to have open on one screen while studying/WFH so you can jump on to complete a task when you're taking a break.

    Fantastic video for someone new to crafting. I've been playing this game for a couple years but have taken things very slow and do just a bit of everything (including crafting) and haven't even finished the MSQ yet! Just to add to your section about grand company turn ins, if you do the math, almost any turn in will be profitable, even if you buy it for 30k+ from the marketboard. This is because 1 venture costs only 200 seals, and 1 venture can equal over 4500-7000+ gil, at least on my server, depending on what kind of retainer you use (gathering or combat). 50x of a mid level material like logs, can sell for 7000+ gil. Now do the math. One GC turn in will give you around 1300-1500 seals. That will let you buy around 7 ventures. 7 x 4500 = 31,500 gil. So even on the low end, you should still at least break even on buying your turn ins from the marketboard.
    This method only works if you have plenty of gil to spend of course, and that you can continue banking the venture currency for the long term. In my case, I made millions of gil at the launch of endwalker just selling high level materia that I got from doing roulettes, so now I am able to use that to just buy GC turn ins from the marketboard, saving time crafting everything and still coming out ahead with more ventures that I can send my retainers out with. I have a lot of retainers though, 7, and that might be the key. Do lots of ventures!

    Thank you for this video! Just started leveling a crafter and this video gave me a look behind the curtain and i feel like i understand the entire universe. Another video i watched, recommended to craft every item once to get the bonus xp etc. Needless to say that it was a pain to just look up materials for every single craft, buy them, craft and continue. I wasted a few hours only to get from 1-21. Now the quicksynth method with a basic item is a true blessing.
    I think i will start all crafters now and do the daily grand company on all of them so i make 1 lvl on each of them per day and be max lvl on all of them after 2-3months or so.

  • @Hirome_Satou

    I think the hands down best way to level crafters at level 60 is the largescale leves at the Temple Levemete in Ishgard. Each of these largescale leves cost 10 leve allownaces each, but you can easily take a level 60 to 80 in a couple hours, or much faster if you buy the materials you need to HQ craft the level 58 leves - these materials aren't even that expensive from what I've seen on the crafters I've used this method on. You're much better off waiting to use your leve allowances on this than using them on any other kind of leve, and if you aren't doing leves at all there's absolutely no reason to not use them on these largescale leves as they will drastically cut down the collectable grind once you get to like 80. Heck, even some of the level 50 large-scale leves give insane amounts of experience, for example "These Boots Are Made for Hawkin'" gives 1,837,480 exp (3,674,960 exp for HQ turn-in), which is easily enough to boost you to 60, from which you can easily boost to 70 or 80 assuming you start out capped in allowances. This way you don't need to spend weeks or a month grinding your crafters, you can wait for allowances to cap, then spend a day boosting one crafter from 50 to ~80, then grinding out the last 10 to 90. This is especially useful for crafters that you don't particularly enjoy leveling. The same can be done for gatherers too by the way. Even if you aren't waiting to cap out at 100 allowances and you wait for 10 to do one of these that's a massive chunk of xp. The exp drops to 1000 after you hit 80, but the fact that you can get essentially from 50 to 80 in just a couple hours or almost immediately if you buy up the materials, this is by far the fastest way to level up a crafter half of the way and skip a large chunk of grind every couple weeks. Especially so if you aren't playing every single day for hours and hours, it saves so much time.

    I loved leveling crafting (and gathering, though with less love) in Ishgard, but I stopped by 70 because it starts requiring too many diadem materials. From 70-90, I used the crystalline mean/studium, plus the other options you mention: Leves, GC deliveries, custom deliveries, and collectables. The biggest benefit IMO to leaning into custom deliveries and collectables from 60+ is the scrips since the scrip gear is good a solid 10 levels, and you'll need even more scrips later for folklore, mats, etc.

    For Lv70 to Lv80 I think it's nice to do collectables (in Eulmore), requires much less materials to gather compared to Ishgardian Restoration and you can use the crafting scrips to buy the ilvl500 Lv80 crafting gear. Before this I did ocean fishing for gathering scrips to buy the gathering gear which makes it much easier to gather everything you need and will also prepare you for lv80 to lv90 material gathering saving you a lot of gil.

    Okay, so I have taken CUL to 90, WVR to 76, GSM to 67 and with the rest sitting at 63. A few thoughts and tips that may improve many people's experience:
    First, start doing your class quests at 60 at 60-63. This has two huge advantages -
    1) You can essentially power through the class quests very easily using the 60 scripts gear. Leveling one crafter to max first will help collect you the white scrips using collectables will provide you with all white scrips you need
    2) The quests, if you do them from 63, will take you to level 70+ easily. You have to do them anyways and while the quests from 1-60 are a bit of a slog (trust me they really are, you want to get them out of the way early, the 60-70 are really easy since they provide you all materials)
    Second, ignore the ishgardian restoration from 60-80. The 100 crafts for 60-80 require INSANE amounts of materials (e.g. some of them 1500 in number, and that's just one approved item, you'll need like 10 of each stack, plus other overworld items). You'll either be spending a metric ton of gil or time in the dietum. Not very time or money efficient. Aim for collectables. These can be crafted incredibly easy and the materials are far easier to gather than the dietum items.
    Third, the beast tribes give bad exp (about 2/3 of a level for 3 quests) but do them anyways. You get a mount if you keep at it, plus you will unlock items that people who don't have the beast tribes unlocked will overpay for on the marketboard, earning you a pretty penny.
    And last, since you'll still be doing ishgardian restoration anyways, DON'T sleep on the kupo vouchers you earn. Check the price of the second place items too! I got three verdant particions (second place housing item) that actually cost more than the best first place item! just taking 8 crafters from 20-60 there earned me 3 verdant partitions that sold for 350k gil each. I also got two casual attire coffers (one which I used myself) the other selling for 250k. That's an easy 1.3m gil earned, just fro 20-60. Do note however you don't earn stamps for lower level turn-ins (e.g. turning in the lv 20 recipe if you could turn in the lv 40 recipe). Once you hit that breakpoint, you won't be earning anymore stamps. So don't go crafting 100 level 20 skybuilder collectables at level 80 thinking you'll make an easy mil.
    And a final note: Take your breaks. If you try to power through it, you'll burn out. Don't neglect your combat jobs. Do some actual crafting and learn your skills (I hit 90 on my CUL and had no idea what the 70+ skills did LOL. Turns out there's some really good ones - Don't be like me).
    That's all I have to say. Just some efficiency tips that I had to learn the hard way through trial and error while wasting time on the side. Happy crafting!
    PS: I usually don't read my yt notifications, so don't ask questions with the expectation that I'll elaborate. I may check back in in the future though, so I will probably still read any replies.

    Very helpful video. I've been doing some of these things, but others I'm going to try like MACROS! I'd add that if you have trained your retainers in gathering, you can save some effort and time by sending them out to collect some of the ingredients for a crafting recipe. It's pretty handy when you need to gather several different types of items.

    Do keep in mind that with the daily turn in items. They can be gear that you get for your combat classes from missions. Once you are done using it for combat jobs you can turn it in even if it is spirit bonded to you. It is a good way, beside desynthe to get rid of these no longer needed items. And they are already HQ.

    Good video, but one thing I didn't hear mention of, is shards and crystals. In addition to the raw materials, shards and crystals are also necessary. Quick synthing large quantities of items in the lower levels is a good quick way to get xp, but also requires large quantities of the relevant elemental shards and crystals. You can get a good amount by leveling all crafters together up to level 10, and then completing the level 5 and 10 class quests for each. that should get you at least 2k shards of each element.

    Tribal quests are great for levelling crafters. I got all of my crafters and gatherers to at least 70 without spending gil on materials or equipment through regular turn ins. Super quick if you have crafters in different level ranges and can use all 12 daily allowances between 4 tribes.

  • @LycanFayn
    @LycanFayn ปีที่แล้ว +9

    If you're not just focused on getting to 90, starting with the goal of 'craft every item' really gets a lot of XP, but you should use something like teamcraft (or honestly I have my own python scripts which allow me to adjust what I want to craft next on the fly without losing details of what I've already obtained) to see what items you'll need and tick them off. Having HQ crafting gear (which you should be doing if you are crafting everything) will easily work for 10-20 levels above current, at least up to level 50.
    Doing that crafting yourself also lets you understand the basics of the crafting abilities and why you'd use each.
    I didn't find Ishgardian restoration until level 55-ish and I only used it to level until 60 or so (I think I also unlocked the moogles for 3 quests XD). It's just so tedious compared to anything else. GC, first time craft bonuses, and custom deliveries got me through quite happily. I think I also did like 10 or so collectibles at the end but I found 'non-Ishgard' collectibles easier than Ishgard stuff XD
    One problem I had with GC was that I would gather all the things, craft all the things, and then hand in, but I played with about 3 hours to reset and sometimes it would tick over before hand in, and often change. Super annoying!
    For collectables, the crafting materials are always at a nearby trader, if you just go to the nearest one there's a high chance they'll sell it. Also, once you're 5/5, you can sometimes get particular crafts/gathers marked as special, which definitely gives you more scrips and might also give more XP. Also also! You can craft on one crafter (which is a decent chunk of the xp) and hand in on another, to balance the XP gains.
    I'm currently levelling an alt on a new server and my crafter/gatherers are at level 30 whilst my msq is at 17. I'm also only up to level 20-25 recipes by the 'craft everything' rule. It's pretty satisfying!
    Also!!! Always make sure to do your quests. There's an incredibly important action at level 60, plus they're a decent chunk of XP (and they're interesting!). Shadowbringers has a system like endwalker (the facets) for the quests.

    I personally also utilized grinding 80-90 using leve quests in old sharlayan. I did only lvl 80 crafts and they took very minimal effort and a single food buff to complete. I earned the 10 levels to lvl 90, decent amount of Gil, crafting crystals, and other materials back. Took about roughly 40/100 of my leve allotments though.

    Excellent video. I found i cannot unlock collections. In the video it says is a lvl 50 quest, but it is a specifically lvl 50 for crafting/gathering jobs, not just any 50 (which makes perfect sense). but this means you cannot just start doing ishgardian restoration for leveling DoH jobs past lvl 21. You will have have leveled at least one DoH or DoL to 50 before you can push the other jobs through ishgardian restoration. Maybe I'm missing something (it is very likely)

    I started the trial and I’m in love with the crafting “vortex” I’ve fallen into. I’m actually a better weaver and goldsmith than I am a black mage. There’s something special about making your own crafting gear to make *more* crafting and gathering gear. My main problem was that I burned through my starting wind and lightning crystals rather fast making too many ingots and bolts of thread I didn’t need and had to shard gathering, but I guess that’s part of it.

    I haven't tested this with the beast tribes from the expansions, but at least with the Ixal you can turn in all of the quests with any crafter no matter the level. So if you've already gotten up to the level 50 ixal quests and have other crafters below 50, you can use that higher leveled crafter to do the quest and turn it in on the lower leveled crafter to boost it a lot

  • @codygarman9656
    @codygarman9656 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Forgive me, I really enjoyed the video and also agreed with a lot of what you said, but I'm a little cross because you didn't mention large-scale levequests in Ishgard that literally gives you millions of exp and doubles if you turn in high quality items. It can get you from 50-80 fairly quickly if you're consistent with it. Sure, it's time consuming if you gather all your materials like I do or very expensive if you go the market route but I still believe it deserves an honorable mention.

    What I did was level gatherers first with job leve quests, job quests and just general gathering. Then I would get a bunch of mats for an easy recipe and just made hundreds of those. The when I was lv 50 I started doing the Moogle quests (changing to the higher level tribal quests) and gathering a bunch of mats used for collectibles, so I made a bunch of those and traded them for EXP and scrips I used to buy gear. Then I repeated that until all my crafters where level 90. It took about a month of this, but I could probably do it a lot faster now that I know how to.
