Everybody picks their profession in the amazing world of FFXIV. Well, if you had picked the Crafting one and you are struggling to get to a level 90, you are in the right place. In this Ultimate Crafter Leveling guide, we will be showing you step by step how to get to a level 90 Crafting. Let’s get started.
The Ultimate Crafter Leveling Guide (1-90) – FFXIV
First of all, before you begin anything with this guide, make sure that you have some cash to spare. You will be buying thighs occasionally that might cost a little bit. This guide will not be very expensive but of course, a little bit of money is always good for starters. Something in the range from 1 to 3 million should do the trick for now.
Also, make sure to level up your gatherers before your crafters ideally. This way you’ll be able to save gil on materials by gathering them yourself. This can be especially useful in the level range from 50 to 80.
Keep leveling all the crafters together so you can keep them more or less in the same level range to use a single gear set for all your crafters. This way you don’t run the risk of accidentally deleting gear.
Now we can begin with the stages:
Quick Synthesis
With this method, you can get all your crafters from level 1 to 21 just through basic recipes. These quests are much more comfortable than the leaf quests and way faster.
This is an alternative to regular crafting. It allows you to synthesize a large number of certain items after you’ve already crafted them once. The materials for these crafts are extremely cheap and can be bought from the vendors inside the respective crafter’s jobs guild. You will rely on the Raw XP from crafting.
To speed it up you can use the Company-Issue Engineering Manual. You can buy these from the quartermaster and only cost a few storm seals.
Ishgardian Restoration 21-60
This is going to get you all the way up from level 21 to 80. Especially worthwhile from 21 to 60 because you can get past this stage really quick.
You will start with the Gearing up. Just buy gear pieces that you don’t actually need. The best website for doing this is the www.FFXIVCrafting.com. Just select all the items you will need and buy a big amount of them. Once you have them with you
Now you can begin working on each of these items that you’ve already bought. This is a good method to reach level 41 easily.
The Ishgardian Restoration takes place inside the place that you’ll have to unlock in Ishard. To unlock the restoration you will need any class on level 60 and also finish the main scenario quest Litany of Piece. You will also need to get collectibles which is a system by completing the level 50 quest.
Once you have it unlocked you will head over thereby using the Etherite inside. Find the Collectible Appraiser here and talk to this NPC.
Here you can see items that are different from other items because the only purpose is to be turned into the collectible Appraisers. You will actually be able to see the various items that the job you will be on at the moment. The higher your level the better the collectibles will be.
To see what you can craft go into the Crafting Log and scroll to the tab of Ishgardian Restoration on the left. Then choose whatever the current restoration is 1-4. Here you will be able to see the different items you will be able to craft as you level up.
Daily Quests 60-80
There is always one Tribe per expansion that will allow you to do daily quests. This will have you craft various items that are always different. The big thing is that they are easy items to craft. So be sure to check all the tribes out and see their quests for what they offer.
Also, you can do the Grand Company Supply Missions. You will need to look up in the Crafting Log the items that you’ll need to supply and just start out by doing these quests one by one. They are a good way to get you to level 70.
Also, do the Custom Deliveries too. This will get to your 80 level.
You can choose which type of level range you will want to do the deliveries for.
Collectables 80-90
This is also doable through the same Ishgardian System you have used from before. However, now you will use actual items that you can gather outside of the diadem. Talk to the Collectable Appraiser and figure out what item you want to craft. Now look it up in your crafting log and then just see what items you’ll need.
Now to save some money, you will need to go and harvest the resources yourself. Otherwise, at this high-level everything will be so expensive.
Studium Deliveries also work very nicely when leveling up at this stage. These are just questlines that you can turn into collectibles and award a ton of XP.
Switch to any crafter from the Studium region and location. You will need to complete the 81-level Sound the Bells Schools In. Every couple of levels a quest will appear here that you can complete.
That should be it! A very bgi thank you to Jolsn FFXIV from YouTube. He went way and beyond with detail on how to achieve this maximum crafting level. Check him out by clicking here.
