RECOMMENDATION: New player myself, but i read somewhere that the leveling progression is more linear with endwalker, meaning the xp difference between the collectibles is often not too big. I would actually recommend to just keep crafting the level 40 collectible till 73. They give me around 360k xp on maximum collectability, use cheaper mats, need less crafting gear and the macro isn't split. The level 60 craftable only gives 100k xp more on maximum collectability, but needs two macros, and is way more expensive. Also spares the hazzle to buy crafting gear for 63.
This guide isn't noob friendly. I just started out today and got to about level 25 when I started to look up stuff about crafting, this one didn't help. Edit: After playing through the MSQ, this isn't quite as difficult to understand anymore. You get to know more and more about the game as you play. Don't prioritize on crafting yet if you're new :)
Just a word of warning for those in September 2020 or past, you won't even remotely come close to breaking even buying materials on the market board and selling what you get with scrips. This is essentially power leveling crafting and it costs a lot (unless you're willing to gather everything yourself)
It cost me 2 million gil for equipment/materials to go from 50-80. Equipment I only bought level 65 equipment and will update around level 80. So probably a 3 mil gil investment for 30 levels. Say I spent 1.5 mil on mats. The Dye is selling for 16k gil. Thats a huge loss. 1.484 mil loss. You have to decide if its worth it for the power leveling. However... you can craft items once you are maxed and earn all that gil back fairly fast.
Desperius i ve a problem. I was new to ff14 and i couldnt find any information that could allow me that the square patches werent available for the steam version. Being the same game, and being played both in pc i didnt know an uncompability was goinh to happen. Thing is i like your content so i decided to give you the code in private so u can give that shadowbringer dlc to another suscriber. I dont know if u ve twitch, but maybe a suscription ti your channel could be amazing. Tell me if u like this or not!! Blessings.
the 26 did not work with 236 cp or anything above it, i had more craftmanship than needed so idk what the problem was, i ended up just changing the macro to one more sythesis and one less touch, but i triple checked the macro and everything
This has made leveling a crafter so much easier and straightforward. All the macros have been a MASSIVE help (although I did have to tweak them to make them more efficient [no standard touch combo or using waste not II?]). Anyways, thank you again for all your guides. You've made a part of MMMO's that I usually dread having to dive into, a walk in the park.
Desperius, THANK YOU SO SO MUCH. Crafting (outside of tanking) was the most intimidating factor for me in this game. I could never make gil, crafting quests were too hard, and it was something I continued to hold off. I hit 80 today on Culinarian today (not the most interesting crafter I know but still). I cannot thank you enough for the info and macros.
I shared this video in my FC Discord server, we have a several members looking for ways to level up crafters and this guide will be a great help. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.
@@RNabuco Do you want an invite to our FC discord server? We play in Coeurl in the Crystal Datacenter for NA. We are very laid back there, so we talk about everything pretty much. If you'd like an invite, I will be glad to oblige.
1. Finish the Heavensward MSQ 2. Complete the blue quests that are level 60 in the Foundation area (near the broken side of the city off to the right of the map) 3. Talk to the NPCs at the Filament area you unlocked until the NPC unlocks Ishguard Restoration in the Special tab of a crafter. 4. Pick up a Discipline of Hand Job 5. Buy weapon and gear / materia to get you from 1-50 (at least) 6. Buy 99 materials of items in that DoH guild merchant 7. Level 1-20 making stuff from the Crafting Log 8. Use Recommended Gear every 5 levels 9. Go to the Ish restoration tab > Grade 2 > Level 20 and buy those items from the marketplace (id recommend enough to craft 20-100 times) 10. Craft the level 20 Grade 2 item from Ish Restoration recipies until you run out of materials 11. Turn them into the NPC at the area where you unlocked Ish Restoration 12. Rinse and repeat steps every new grade 2 level (40, 60, 70 etc) till 80 ensuring you are trying to get to the CP requirements of the macros in the document provided (in description links) Good Luck!
A small note, every craft has a stated Craftmanship recommended or required. Dont confuse these up, you can start a craft with whatever stats as long as they aint marked as required. As a matter of fact, the recommended Craftmanship shown is just a guideline, and you can in many cases do the craft without reaching it.
As someone who has played since 2.0 and never leveled a single disciple of hand or land job this guide is a godsend and would like to support further endeavors
I strongly suggest everyone who's beginning to start this guide reconsider, it requires a massive investment and as of now (Aug 2021) it is very hard to make that gil back, the dyes he talks about will not do it. This is powerleveling, only do it if you're prepared to spend a LOT of gil. Nothing against this guide, I'm sure it's the most efficient way to do it, but I'm out a lot of gil and hit a roadblock at the lvl 63 stage where I need to buy more gear to hit the CP requirements. I'm now slowly making my money back selling materials and glam items, but to be honest maybe I would have been better off just not following this guide at all, or even getting into crafting. Just something to think about.
Glad to see I'm not the only one, it was going fine until I hit 63 and the CP breakpoint is impossible to reach, I would have to invest an enormous amount of money to reach it
I think this guide works. But you need to get the mats not off the marketplace but from within Diadem, by leveling your other gathering classes. They phased out some of the mats so you can only get them in Diadem now. Thats why many of the mats cost so much now if you buy em from the marketplace.
It is investment to hit those certain CP requirements on the later levels. I had the same issue I spent majority of my Gil and was broke for a while. What made it a tad easier was buying the materials to make the ironworks crafting accessories. This is still expensive but in the long run helped me level all my other crafting jobs. I highly suggest doing the diadem and sell any material on the market board that you don’t need to make some Gil back. Check your market board to see what things are worth more. Snipe the monsters that net the most currency. The voucher from Ishgard can net some pretty decent profit as well but it’s all rng. Whatever you get from the rewards check the MB to see what they are worth. A good chunk of them are worth a good amount at least for the higher level rewards. Some pets you receive from the voucher sell for a decent price as well. Once your broke it’s kinda hard to get back on your feet. But gathering helps a ton. There is a ton of lazy people who don’t want to farm and rather spend the Gil to get the material. Take advantage of that. If you can’t find anyone who can make these accessories for you for free I can help soonish. I’m currently leveling the job that can make those. Oh and don’t forget to do your class quests for your crafting jobs. They give a ton of xp when you are caught up to your level. This saves some money if you craft all the items needed yourself. I tend to level my jobs to 60 and just catch up on all my quests I missed for the job. By the time I’m done I’m usually close to 70 if not already at 70. You can also try leve quests to level your job around 60ish but this requires to get certain material from the market board. Turning in HQ item for the quest gives you double the xp and Gil.
@@Vexion3 Thanks so much for the detailed reply! I actually have just recently gotten into the Diadem. I noticed that you get scrips really fast from it, and that's really helped me make back some money (almost 1 mil in a day !!!). I'll keep the rest of your advice in mind moving forwards. :)
@@stephenfrog that’s good to hear! And no problem! I highly suggest not leveling your crafter from 70-80 from ishgard unless the materials are cheap or you have Gil to burn. Doing the leves quest in one of the shb zones is cheaper. Check the prices of HQ items if they are too much just try to craft them yourself with HQ if possible. From what I noticed they aren’t nearly as hard to craft as some of the higher level ishgard things. Custom deliveries is also another easy way to level up. May not be fast but not expensive.
Just so everyone knows this still works with Patch 5.5. Also make sure during the level 60 macro you get all new gear and meld with Gatherers Cunning to get the CP up with food buff. And lastly the level 70 Macro with 1 part works perfect just make sure you have the 480 CP and also the Craftsmanship to make the item.
FOR THE LEVEL 63: You wont get the goal with just gear and food, what can you do? - Get somebody to craft the hq version of the jewelry and meld all your gear with lvl 4 CP materia. I got to 486 doing this (also using the best current cp food in hq: Chili Crab)
Just a quick PSA for those struggling to reach the 478 CP breakpoint for the level 63 rotation like I was: by changing the 2 Waste Nots into one Waste Not II at the beginning, the breakpoint becomes 464 CP instead, making it just a little bit easier to reach :)
Hey, danke für den Guide. Ich bin kürzlich erst mit Handwerk angefangen und hab zwar alles solide mit selbst herausfinden rausbekommen, aber die Tips von deiner Community und dir sind echt Gold wert!
Thanks for the video and macros! Really helps a lot, look forward to see more helpful contents such as these crafting guides! It's hard and confusing at first but after im done with my 1st level 80 DOH, it is actually easy to do. Managed to level up all DOH in a few days time as im not in a rush while burning 4-5 mil in the process. Also gained atleast few hundred thousands if not millions (didnt remember how much exactly, maybe close to 1.5 to 2m) after selling dyes.
If anyone is wondering, I tried these macros out with grade 4 skybuilder crafts and they work pretty much just as well. Might need to add another synthesis at the end, though. (depending on your gear, etc)
Something is weird with the background music. For some reason, I feel like I should put all my crafting tools inside a cube-shaped box. Maybe add some Materia.
Not needing Manipulation means not needing SB MSQ done. I'm playing through for the first time and in the "just unlocked ishgardian restoration" part of the patches, so not needing to finish SB to get crafters leveled up is a great thing! Wonderful straight-forward video, like always, thanks, Desp!
Hey man, just a note that the doc you shared has some issues, namely that the 50/53 macro is wrong. It doesn't have Byregots blessing at all and therefore you can't hit the required quality without much higher control. It should be the following: /ac "Inner Quiet" /ac "Waste Not" /ac "Innovation" /ac "Basic Touch" /ac "Basic Touch" /ac "Standard Touch" /ac "Standard Touch" /ac "Great Strides" /ac "Innovation" /ac "Standard Touch" /ac "Basic Touch" /ac "Great Strides" /ac "Byregot's Blessing" /ac "Veneration" /ac "Basic Synthesis"
@@iMarcism most likely, but it would depend on your craftsmanship and control. Do a couple trial synths with it, nice and easy way to test it without losing any mats :)
@@TimoPK I haven't played FFXIV for a while so I'm pretty rusty, but I never knew about a combo action at the level we are talking about here. If it's better that way though then just tweak :) I had no reason to not alternate! Happy crafting :)
I just want to mention, as a person that is leveling all crafters and gatherers at the same time: 1.) Gathering your own materials is way cheaper and worth it in the long run. 2.) Desynthesis is awesome to get materials, though its less of a help for HQ ones 3.) DO JOB QUESTS 4.) level crafters after gatherers. What I've taken to doing is about a 10 level gap. Level gatherers from 50 - 60, then crafters from 50 - 60.
Thank you so much this takes the stress of crafting class leveling and it works im already at lvl 73 and just short on gil to finish it. I'm in the goblin server and this was way more expensive than mentioned here. All equipment on the market is more expensive than shops and shops gear will take 100k+ at lvl 63 and 200k+ for lvl 71 gear. Materials seem cheap but stack quick and the last step has been particularly expensive. While also running out of crystals which I farmed since its expensive on my market. I started at about 1M gil and im out right now. This could be due to my inexperience with this market but I suggest that you budget around 1.5M to finish your crafter. Other than this it works!
6.05 UPDATED LEVEL 63: You can use the 40 collectable until 73 with the new XP tiering, however, you will miss out on the Kupo board (and it is def slower XP). Here's a macro you can use which only requires 428 CP and can be used at 63: Part 1: /ac "Muscle Memory" /ac "Waste Not II" /ac "Basic Touch" /ac "Standard Touch" /ac "Basic Touch" /ac "Standard Touch" /ac "Basic Touch" /ac "Standard Touch" /ac "Basic Touch" /ac "Master's Mend" /ac Innovation /ac "Basic Touch" /ac "Standard Touch" /ac "Great Strides" /e Craft Complete Part 2: /ac "Byregot's Blessing" /ac "Basic Synthesis" /ac "Basic Synthesis" /e Craft Complete
My Lv 71-80 Macro that worked for me with 438 CP and 3000+ Collectability /ac "Einkehr" /ac "Innovation" /ac "Nachhaltigkeit" /ac "Basisveredelung" /ac "Basisveredelung" /ac "Basisveredelung" /ac "Basisveredelung" /ac "Innovation" /ac "Wiederherstellung" /ac "Große Schritte" /ac "Byregots Benediktion" /ac "Ehrfurcht" /ac "Bearbeiten" /ac "Bearbeiten" /ac "Bearbeiten" I hope it ain't a problem that it's in german
Don't know if something has changed, but the macro doesn't work for the 63-71 crafts, despite being above all the thresholds (496 CP, 801 craftsmanship, 770 control)
update with the crafting macros, more so with the level 53 one, put Standard touch between basic touch because standard touch gets lowered to 18 after using a basic touch, saves a decent amount of CP that way
Thanks for this - I will finish the MSQ to 80 first and then do the crafting - I HATE crafting in games. It feels like something I could do IRL but instead waste my time ingame.
I've personally noticed that in the guide & video the CP values you require for some of the crafting rotations are higher than what you necessarily require. In some places where you use food or otherwise to boost up your CP enough to reach it; I've noticed that just by changing up the rotation slightly to make it a bit more cost effective can yield the same or greater results with no need for melding or food; especially at the higher levels. So this guide might actually need updates here and there (at least on the google doc) and I can try to find you more cost efficient rotations to help manage the money sink (if only by a little bit) for people who aren't strolling into crafting like bilbo baggins and have maybe a fraction of the fortune to try and start these crafts (Personally: I started with 100k to my name lvling everything to 80.)
Please teach me the macros that require less CP, I'm willing to learn. Also like this comment if you ever respond because it will give me a notification.
If anyone is watching this and wondering how to reach the 478 CP goal at level 60, use Cunning Craftsman's Syrup along with Blood Bouillabaisse. The blood bouillabaisse is HQ and the Syrup is NQ. There's also Craftsman's Tea but that has to be HQ.
For the early steps around lvl 20 and have a decent gear (around 124 craftsmanship/129 control), if you eat some chili crab (which is cheap) you can do the lvl 40 macro which gives most of the times the third level of rating.
How to get 478 CP? I got 469 with food buffs and materia slotted everywhere I could. Got leveled gear up to 66 besides some 65s and even got HQ gear. Not breaking into the 478
Finally... finally I'm able to start my crafting journey after so many days of waiting cause of endwalker overpopulation... here I go, doing my first qu- Emergency maintenance.................................................. Literally nothing said by anyone except for ffxiv website 3 hours earlier. Well guess I'll kms :D What makes it worse is I don't even have endwalker yet cause I'm broke, therefore me going to do crafting stuff :D
Love this guide but I wish I knew how many crafts per bracket. Like Lvl 63-71 was 38-40 crafts per job. Just for future reference. Keep up the good work.
@@iwifia Ragard reach equip and a couple off lvls below market accessories. I thought that this was a little waste either way cause 63-70 goes fast even with previous recepies. for me the gear was really expensive. Push through to lvl 71 gear if you can.
Thank you for the great guide, it has proven quite useful! However, I couldn't get the 60/63 macro to work for me, despite having required CP at lvl 60, so I made some edits and then it worked fine for me (even at 472 CP), so gonna leave it here in case anyone else needs it! :D /ac "Muscle Memory" /ac "Inner Quiet" /ac "Waste Not II" /ac "Basic Touch" /ac "Standard Touch" /ac "Basic Touch" /ac "Standard Touch" /ac "Basic Touch" /ac "Standard Touch" /ac "Innovation" /e Craft Complete
THIS! I tried everything to make the 2-piece macro to work but couldn't get it and ended up spending more gil to reach success. GG on the fix! - Edit: Inner Quiet is a trait, not an action so that part of the macro fails.
Personally, once I hit 50 I do a Temple Leve in ishgard. I do whichever lvl50 one gives the most xp and turn in a HQ item. Boom 56 or 58. Then i do either a 56 or 58 Temple Leve that gives the most xp. Turn in HQ, boom 64ish. 5min of effort. Skips all that grinding. For the temple leves you'll most likely need to buy the items it wants you to craft. But hey, time = money. Will i spend 100k to save 2hrs? Yup i sure will. Because just doing 1 solo map each day nets roughly 100-200k more times than not.
Yeah I don't get this either, did you find a solution to this? I'm capped on CP for every piece and I use Blood Bouill, I'm 3 CP away with food buff....
I was just wondering why some of your macros don't use the Basic touch into Standard Touch combo? Also, the level 26 macro I think is broken. I *think* I fixed it, but idk if I just did something wrong. I have met(and exceeded) the minimum CP requirements you have listed. Anyway, I also wanted to thank you for the guide and the macros and provide a little feedback while I level all the crafters at the same time.
Just on the off chance someone reads this and runs into the same issue, the corrected macro for the level 26 section is: /ac "Inner Quiet" /ac "Waste Not" /ac "Basic Touch" /ac "Standard Touch" /ac "Innovation" /ac "Basic Touch" /ac "Standard Touch" /ac "Basic Touch" /ac "Standard Touch" /ac "Veneration" /ac "Basic Synthesis" /ac "Basic Synthesis" /e Craft Complete I had to remove the third Basic Touch as I was running out of CP by the end of it, even with 260 CP. Using the Standard Touch's also increases the average quality of the items AFAIK... Again, I'm new to this so if I'm missing something glaringly obvious just let me know
Hey lovely, thank you so much for this video and informatin. I have one little question, in your macro page it lists lvl 53 as requiring (250 Craft; 322 Control; 292 CP) but in the video at 11:58 you say it requires 356 CP can you tell me which it is please?
very well made video easy to follow and all, but lets say just someone watched this and didnt get it would you make a leveling for dummies type video? I totally understood everything that was going on here this is just a theoretical question :)
@@DesperiusFFXIV no need of it anymore I have mastered crafting already I guess it was just some terms being used and ur ui looking alien compared to mine that confused me
Yeah... i do beast tribe quests and special deliveries. It's slower but i actually enjoy those. Got all 70+ with two 80. Dwarves ftw! Moogles and Namazu before that. Did lots of leves when getting them to 50 though. I could do again if i wanted to rush, but i'm ok with this. Slow and steady gets it done.
Much simpler today. 1 get to level 60, get to 20 in the trades you want to level. find the questguy in Foundation Farm the materials you need from special map in training area. Farm the few mats you need or buy them. Now make items and hand in for XP. Leveled Leatherworking the normal power leveling way, throwing money out the window. Now its beasted up to 60 with little to no effort. Botanic and mining skill gonna explode in leveling, as you get 3-4k eatch hit on material node, guaranteed. just wished i knew this sooner
Hey, the lvl53 macro in the docs is different from the one you show on the video. Tried both and the docs one reaches ~300 collectability and the video one reaches ~400. Ty for compiling and sharing the info.
Yo man. The lvl63 macros aren't working for me? When I start the part 2 macro it fails because the durability of the craft runs out? I've triple checked my macro imput, my cp is 411 and my craftsmanship is 820 so I can't think what is wrong. Please help
@@SuperKinahead How do you get there? I'm stuck now because I can't reach the CP 478. I bought all the lvl 63 gear from vendors and put in CP materia and still I'm so far off, its unbelievable. 399 without food buff
Thanks great guide for crafting beginners, however i have 89 control and 250 cp for level 20. I'm failing on the level 20 rotation so I update one. Whoever might got problem try this rotation based from the guide. /ac "Inner Quiet" /ac "Waste Not" /ac "Basic Touch" /ac "Basic Touch" /ac "Basic Touch" /ac "Basic Touch" /ac "Veneration" /ac "Basic Synthesis" /ac "Basic Synthesis" /ac "Basic Synthesis" /ac "Basic Synthesis" /e Craft Complete
I've actually gone the other way with crafting: Sure, Ishgardian restoration for crafting is great... if you've neglected crafting until post-Heavensward. And Ishgardian restoration will eventually end. I have gotten to level 60+ on all crafting classes and haven't finished the Heavensward 3.0 story yet. So I haven't even REACHED Ishgardian restoration. Crafting has gotten ridiculously easy since patch 5.1, where it became streamlined (all crafting classes have identical actions) and gil & EXP for crafting turn-ins with the GC and leves were increased by a huge factor. In ARR, I leveled my crafting/gathering as I leveled my battle class. Now that I'm on Heavensward (but not yet in the post-game), I level my crafting as new areas are opened. Does it take a bit of gil? Sure. Is farming leather annoying? Yup.
Hi. I'm here fromm the future where restoration phase 3 has ended (but about to start again with phase 4). It will likely completely end after new expansion. But before then, you can still get EXP for crafting. Its worth it at least until lvl 50
Hi, Desperius! First off, thanks for taking the time to put all of this together, I am excited to try it out. Secondly, at the end of the video you said it cost you approximately 500k gil, and I was wondering. Was that per job, or for all DoH jobs? Thanks!
Could you show us the gear you are using for each upgrade, that would be much appreciated since I struggled after lvl 60 to fit into the CP requirements on your guide. Thanks.
Same thing happened to me. I hit 63 (and actually 65 now) and still can't reach the 478 required for the lvl 63 macro. I bought everything I could off the market board and melded everything up to max and even with the food was only around 440.
Great video! But please, please, explain how Specialist Crafter works (Soul of a Crafter) and how to use skills like "Careful Observation" which you get at lev 55. Best regards!
I didn’t know there was a guide like this;-; I stopped crafting because of the rotation was so confusing and any guides were already around lvl 70 but I’m only 30 and suffering lol
Found that I had enough CP with Blood Bouilabaisse (about 331) to just do the lvl 40 Macro at lvl 28. That said, I did upgrade my gear to low lvl 20's gear and high lvl 20 jewelry decked out with materia. The price wasn't too bad, a few thousand gil to match what I already had from doing class quests up to lvl 20
I started with less than 100k and locked to Realm Reborn areas. I managed to get all my crafts to 80 using retainers and the market board, and made a few m. This was years ago when crafting was WAY harder, and I did it before I really knew how to make money. No excuse for people to be poor imo. You try, you make money.
I think there is something wrong with the 71-80 rotation. I have used this guide to level 5 crafters to 80 before Endwalker and it worked great! since the sheet was updated it seems that a few of the rotations are broken. I may be missing something though. I meet all the requirements for the 71-80 part, but the craft fails. I am level 72 CUL with the Grade 4 Skybuilders' All-purpose Infusion. Any tips?
Yeah I'm having the same problem on BSM. Level 71, and I meet the expectations completely, but every time I use the 71 macros for the Crosscut Saw it just fails completely, and I'm not sure what to do.
I'm still new to the game and have started every craft except alchemy at the moment. I do play on trial, so have no acces to the market. Making every recipe once seems to work pretty well so far (recipes for crafting materials are ofcourse made more often). My crafting level are now between 18 and 27. At the moment I've made profit doing this by selling the random vendors and taking the gill option for nearly every crafting quest reward. Aside from making a bit of money I also don't need to buy new gear, since I craft it. My main combat class is only 26 and I guess I'm not far into the story yet and have 40k gill by only doing main story and job quests.
That's an amazing guide, but the macros should change a little, because 5.4 added a combo to standard touch after a basic touch dividing its cp cost by half :D
For the Level 71 Macro, the synthesis constantly finished immediately at "Careful Synthesis" (Step 3). If anyone has this problem, change it to "Basic Synthesis" and it should work. At least it did for me. If that still doesn't work, add in "Final Appraisal" (Costs 1 CP) right before it
Okay, das ist ein verdammt gutes Video so weit! nur eine Sache wäre wünschenswert gewesen: wenn ich mich nicht schwer täusche, hast du uns nicht gezeigt, welche Ausrüstung genau du zu welchem Zeitpunkt der Rotation getragen hast. das ist besonders deshalb ärgerlich, weil du mit den Macros auf HP-Werte verweist, die man standartmäßig so nicht erreichen kann, ohne zu wissen was man da eigentlich tut. so ist es mir unbegreiflich, wie man mit level 60/63 auf 478 HP kommen soll - selbst mit Buffood und einem rund 180er Gear auf 65 komme ich grade mal auf 418. Dass ich das nicht raffe, mag meinen Englischkenntnissen geschuldet sein, aber die einzige ausrüstungs-aussage die ich festmachen konnte war "kauf was günstig ist und dem entsprechenden Level am gewissen fixpunkten entspricht". genau das hab ich getan, aber ich denke, es wäre klar besser gewesen, die Ausrüstung klar zu präsentieren, die du selbst verwendet hast.
Changed the lvl 63 macro to work on patch 6.0.5. Requires 471 CP:
Macro 1:

/ac "Waste Not II"
/ac "Basic Touch"
/ac "Standard Touch"
/ac "Basic Touch"
/ac "Standard Touch"
/ac "Basic Touch"

/ac "Standard Touch"
/ac "Great Strides"
/ac "Byregot's Blessing"
/ac "Veneration"
/ac "Careful Synthesis"
/e Craft Complete
RECOMMENDATION: New player myself, but i read somewhere that the leveling progression is more linear with endwalker, meaning the xp difference between the collectibles is often not too big. I would actually recommend to just keep crafting the level 40 collectible till 73. They give me around 360k xp on maximum collectability, use cheaper mats, need less crafting gear and the macro isn't split. The level 60 craftable only gives 100k xp more on maximum collectability, but needs two macros, and is way more expensive. Also spares the hazzle to buy crafting gear for 63.

Say I spent 1.5 mil on mats. The Dye is selling for 16k gil. Thats a huge loss. 1.484 mil loss. You have to decide if its worth it for the power leveling. However... you can craft items once you are maxed and earn all that gil back fairly fast.

Being the same game, and being played both in pc i didnt know an uncompability was goinh to happen. Thing is i like your content so i decided to give you the code in private so u can give that shadowbringer dlc to another suscriber. I dont know if u ve twitch, but maybe a suscription ti your channel could be amazing. Tell me if u like this or not!! Blessings.
the 26 did not work with 236 cp or anything above it, i had more craftmanship than needed so idk what the problem was, i ended up just changing the macro to one more sythesis and one less touch, but i triple checked the macro and everything
tried the 26 at 37 and it worked, not sure what really happened but i met craftmanship and cp requirements
124 m gil?! Omg...
Quick synthesis is now aquired at level 10
This has made leveling a crafter so much easier and straightforward. All the macros have been a MASSIVE help (although I did have to tweak them to make them more efficient [no standard touch combo or using waste not II?]). Anyways, thank you again for all your guides. You've made a part of MMMO's that I usually dread having to dive into, a walk in the park.
Desperius, THANK YOU SO SO MUCH. Crafting (outside of tanking) was the most intimidating factor for me in this game. I could never make gil, crafting quests were too hard, and it was something I continued to hold off. I hit 80 today on Culinarian today (not the most interesting crafter I know but still). I cannot thank you enough for the info and macros.
I am glad to help ! More about that topic coming soon
I shared this video in my FC Discord server, we have a several members looking for ways to level up crafters and this guide will be a great help. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.
can you invite me?
@@RNabuco Do you want an invite to our FC discord server? We play in Coeurl in the Crystal Datacenter for NA. We are very laid back there, so we talk about everything pretty much. If you'd like an invite, I will be glad to oblige.
1. Finish the Heavensward MSQ
2. Complete the blue quests that are level 60 in the Foundation area (near the broken side of the city off to the right of the map)
3. Talk to the NPCs at the Filament area you unlocked until the NPC unlocks Ishguard Restoration in the Special tab of a crafter.
4. Pick up a Discipline of Hand Job
5. Buy weapon and gear / materia to get you from 1-50 (at least)
6. Buy 99 materials of items in that DoH guild merchant
7. Level 1-20 making stuff from the Crafting Log
8. Use Recommended Gear every 5 levels
9. Go to the Ish restoration tab > Grade 2 > Level 20 and buy those items from the marketplace (id recommend enough to craft 20-100 times)
10. Craft the level 20 Grade 2 item from Ish Restoration recipies until you run out of materials
11. Turn them into the NPC at the area where you unlocked Ish Restoration
12. Rinse and repeat steps every new grade 2 level (40, 60, 70 etc) till 80 ensuring you are trying to get to the CP requirements of the macros in the document provided (in description links)
Good Luck!
A small note, every craft has a stated Craftmanship recommended or required. Dont confuse these up, you can start a craft with whatever stats as long as they aint marked as required. As a matter of fact, the recommended Craftmanship shown is just a guideline, and you can in many cases do the craft without reaching it.
Oh, I actually haven't known that, thanks for adding !
thank you so much for this! was more than halfway through levelling but this'll really help finish things off 🥰
Hey man awesome guide went from lvl 1 to lvl 80 in about 5 hours appreciate this awesome work
As someone who has played since 2.0 and never leveled a single disciple of hand or land job this guide is a godsend and would like to support further endeavors
I can't believe I haven't been using macros this entire time. You are a lifesaver and a scholar beyond words, thank you!
Thank you Joseph!
I strongly suggest everyone who's beginning to start this guide reconsider, it requires a massive investment and as of now (Aug 2021) it is very hard to make that gil back, the dyes he talks about will not do it. This is powerleveling, only do it if you're prepared to spend a LOT of gil. Nothing against this guide, I'm sure it's the most efficient way to do it, but I'm out a lot of gil and hit a roadblock at the lvl 63 stage where I need to buy more gear to hit the CP requirements. I'm now slowly making my money back selling materials and glam items, but to be honest maybe I would have been better off just not following this guide at all, or even getting into crafting. Just something to think about.
Glad to see I'm not the only one, it was going fine until I hit 63 and the CP breakpoint is impossible to reach, I would have to invest an enormous amount of money to reach it
I think this guide works. But you need to get the mats not off the marketplace but from within Diadem, by leveling your other gathering classes. They phased out some of the mats so you can only get them in Diadem now. Thats why many of the mats cost so much now if you buy em from the marketplace.
It is investment to hit those certain CP requirements on the later levels. I had the same issue I spent majority of my Gil and was broke for a while. What made it a tad easier was buying the materials to make the ironworks crafting accessories. This is still expensive but in the long run helped me level all my other crafting jobs. I highly suggest doing the diadem and sell any material on the market board that you don’t need to make some Gil back. Check your market board to see what things are worth more. Snipe the monsters that net the most currency.
The voucher from Ishgard can net some pretty decent profit as well but it’s all rng. Whatever you get from the rewards check the MB to see what they are worth. A good chunk of them are worth a good amount at least for the higher level rewards. Some pets you receive from the voucher sell for a decent price as well.
Once your broke it’s kinda hard to get back on your feet. But gathering helps a ton. There is a ton of lazy people who don’t want to farm and rather spend the Gil to get the material. Take advantage of that. If you can’t find anyone who can make these accessories for you for free I can help soonish. I’m currently leveling the job that can make those.
Oh and don’t forget to do your class quests for your crafting jobs. They give a ton of xp when you are caught up to your level. This saves some money if you craft all the items needed yourself. I tend to level my jobs to 60 and just catch up on all my quests I missed for the job. By the time I’m done I’m usually close to 70 if not already at 70. You can also try leve quests to level your job around 60ish but this requires to get certain material from the market board. Turning in HQ item for the quest gives you double the xp and Gil.
@@Vexion3 Thanks so much for the detailed reply! I actually have just recently gotten into the Diadem. I noticed that you get scrips really fast from it, and that's really helped me make back some money (almost 1 mil in a day !!!). I'll keep the rest of your advice in mind moving forwards. :)
@@stephenfrog that’s good to hear! And no problem! I highly suggest not leveling your crafter from 70-80 from ishgard unless the materials are cheap or you have Gil to burn. Doing the leves quest in one of the shb zones is cheaper. Check the prices of HQ items if they are too much just try to craft them yourself with HQ if possible. From what I noticed they aren’t nearly as hard to craft as some of the higher level ishgard things. Custom deliveries is also another easy way to level up. May not be fast but not expensive.
Just so everyone knows this still works with Patch 5.5.
Also make sure during the level 60 macro you get all new gear and meld with Gatherers Cunning to get the CP up with food buff.
And lastly the level 70 Macro with 1 part works perfect just make sure you have the 480 CP and also the Craftsmanship to make the item.
FOR THE LEVEL 63:
You wont get the goal with just gear and food, what can you do?
- Get somebody to craft the hq version of the jewelry and meld all your gear with lvl 4 CP materia.
I got to 486 doing this (also using the best current cp food in hq: Chili Crab)
Just a quick PSA for those struggling to reach the 478 CP breakpoint for the level 63 rotation like I was: by changing the 2 Waste Nots into one Waste Not II at the beginning, the breakpoint becomes 464 CP instead, making it just a little bit easier to reach :)
Note that you’ll need to move the Master’s Mend to the bottom, right before you use Innovation
Hey, danke für den Guide. Ich bin kürzlich erst mit Handwerk angefangen und hab zwar alles solide mit selbst herausfinden rausbekommen, aber die Tips von deiner Community und dir sind echt Gold wert!
Das freut mich, dir helfen zu können
Thanks for the video and macros! Really helps a lot, look forward to see more helpful contents such as these crafting guides! It's hard and confusing at first but after im done with my 1st level 80 DOH, it is actually easy to do. Managed to level up all DOH in a few days time as im not in a rush while burning 4-5 mil in the process. Also gained atleast few hundred thousands if not millions (didnt remember how much exactly, maybe close to 1.5 to 2m) after selling dyes.
If anyone is wondering, I tried these macros out with grade 4 skybuilder crafts and they work pretty much just as well. Might need to add another synthesis at the end, though. (depending on your gear, etc)
Something is weird with the background music. For some reason, I feel like I should put all my crafting tools inside a cube-shaped box. Maybe add some Materia.
Haha, yeah that is a good idea
Not needing Manipulation means not needing SB MSQ done. I'm playing through for the first time and in the "just unlocked ishgardian restoration" part of the patches, so not needing to finish SB to get crafters leveled up is a great thing! Wonderful straight-forward video, like always, thanks, Desp!
Hey man, just a note that the doc you shared has some issues, namely that the 50/53 macro is wrong. It doesn't have Byregots blessing at all and therefore you can't hit the required quality without much higher control. It should be the following:
/ac "Inner Quiet"
/ac "Waste Not"
/ac "Innovation"
/ac "Basic Touch"
/ac "Basic Touch"
/ac "Standard Touch"
/ac "Standard Touch"
/ac "Great Strides"
/ac "Innovation"
/ac "Standard Touch"
/ac "Basic Touch"
/ac "Great Strides"
/ac "Byregot's Blessing"
/ac "Veneration"
/ac "Basic Synthesis"
Thanks for the macro, will this work if I am a Alchemist(lvl65) cp 432
@@iMarcism most likely, but it would depend on your craftsmanship and control. Do a couple trial synths with it, nice and easy way to test it without losing any mats :)
Why aren't you alternating between basic and standard touch, since they have a combo action to make standard touch cheaper?
@@TimoPK I haven't played FFXIV for a while so I'm pretty rusty, but I never knew about a combo action at the level we are talking about here. If it's better that way though then just tweak :) I had no reason to not alternate! Happy crafting :)
I was looking for a video on this, and I see you've read my mind lol
I just want to mention, as a person that is leveling all crafters and gatherers at the same time:
1.) Gathering your own materials is way cheaper and worth it in the long run.
2.) Desynthesis is awesome to get materials, though its less of a help for HQ ones
3.) DO JOB QUESTS
4.) level crafters after gatherers. What I've taken to doing is about a 10 level gap. Level gatherers from 50 - 60, then crafters from 50 - 60.
Thank you so so much for updating these for endwalker, wuch a massive help
Thank you so much this takes the stress of crafting class leveling and it works im already at lvl 73 and just short on gil to finish it. I'm in the goblin server and this was way more expensive than mentioned here. All equipment on the market is more expensive than shops and shops gear will take 100k+ at lvl 63 and 200k+ for lvl 71 gear. Materials seem cheap but stack quick and the last step has been particularly expensive. While also running out of crystals which I farmed since its expensive on my market. I started at about 1M gil and im out right now. This could be due to my inexperience with this market but I suggest that you budget around 1.5M to finish your crafter. Other than this it works!
6.05 UPDATED LEVEL 63:
You can use the 40 collectable until 73 with the new XP tiering, however, you will miss out on the Kupo board (and it is def slower XP).
Here's a macro you can use which only requires 428 CP and can be used at 63:

/ac "Basic Touch"

Don't know if something has changed, but the macro doesn't work for the 63-71 crafts, despite being above all the thresholds (496 CP, 801 craftsmanship, 770 control)
getting the same issue
Just what I needed as I begin to dive into crafting. Thank you!
You are welcome !
Man I love your videos! Great job!!!
Thank you thank you THANK YOU so much for this! This was amazing.
Ishgard Resto makes lvling crafters pretty painless.
Desperius: Get as much CP as possible.
FBI: Open up!
Information I was after was covered in your 5 minute crafting video :)
update with the crafting macros, more so with the level 53 one, put Standard touch between basic touch because standard touch gets lowered to 18 after using a basic touch, saves a decent amount of CP that way
This makes crafting so much easier for me thank you so much !
is it still available or was this an event?
Thanks for this - I will finish the MSQ to 80 first and then do the crafting - I HATE crafting in games. It feels like something I could do IRL but instead waste my time ingame.
I've personally noticed that in the guide & video the CP values you require for some of the crafting rotations are higher than what you necessarily require. In some places where you use food or otherwise to boost up your CP enough to reach it; I've noticed that just by changing up the rotation slightly to make it a bit more cost effective can yield the same or greater results with no need for melding or food; especially at the higher levels. So this guide might actually need updates here and there (at least on the google doc) and I can try to find you more cost efficient rotations to help manage the money sink (if only by a little bit) for people who aren't strolling into crafting like bilbo baggins and have maybe a fraction of the fortune to try and start these crafts (Personally: I started with 100k to my name lvling everything to 80.)
No wonder I can't reach these ridiculously high CP requirements for the life of me...
Please teach me the macros that require less CP, I'm willing to learn. Also like this comment if you ever respond because it will give me a notification.
make sure to get the Manipulation skill, if you fail the lvl 71 one! it will tell you in chat log too.
Thank you for this. Had to make some minor adjustments to the macros but they work well otherwise :)
Reasons for Ishgard: It's cheap, AND you want to go for Pegasus anyways...
@Desperius: Many thousand thanks for the macros - they're lifetime savers
I want to thank you so much for this guide it really help me out
If anyone is watching this and wondering how to reach the 478 CP goal at level 60, use Cunning Craftsman's Syrup along with Blood Bouillabaisse. The blood bouillabaisse is HQ and the Syrup is NQ. There's also Craftsman's Tea but that has to be HQ.
For the early steps around lvl 20 and have a decent gear (around 124 craftsmanship/129 control), if you eat some chili crab (which is cheap) you can do the lvl 40 macro which gives most of the times the third level of rating.
thanks so much for this video and especially for the macros. cba to study crafting rotations :D
How to get 478 CP? I got 469 with food buffs and materia slotted everywhere I could. Got leveled gear up to 66 besides some 65s and even got HQ gear. Not breaking into the 478
Try to use the Cunning Syrup. That'll help
Same here. Even with syrup and stuff
Hi Des! I think there's a mistake with your lvl 53 macro, I checked and it needs 366 CP and not 356 CP, but other than that, it's perfect. Great vid!
I will correct that, thank you for the tip 😊👍
Did 53 to 63 with no gems or food only 280 cp 410 everytime
that legend of mana music got me nostalgic
Crazy helpful still use this now with some alterations
Kinda alterations?
Just a side note to everyone, if the gill sink seems to big go ahead and just finish the MSQ, if you get at least 1.3 mil just from quest rewards.
Finally... finally I'm able to start my crafting journey after so many days of waiting cause of endwalker overpopulation... here I go, doing my first qu- Emergency maintenance.................................................. Literally nothing said by anyone except for ffxiv website 3 hours earlier.
Well guess I'll kms :D
What makes it worse is I don't even have endwalker yet cause I'm broke, therefore me going to do crafting stuff :D
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! This guide has been so helpful!
Love this guide but I wish I knew how many crafts per bracket. Like Lvl 63-71 was 38-40 crafts per job. Just for future reference. Keep up the good work.
Wow and here i am gathering materials and making Lv. 50+ equipment like a sucker. :P
How are you getting 478 cp at lvl 63? I've bought all the 63 gear and have the food buff and im still 10 cp short. Even at 65 im still short
That was where I was struggling too. I reached it with Lvl 73.
@albertokipi Yeah I am just shy myself, not sure how to even hit this without looking at the HQ gear which is insanely over priced
I did as well but with cp materia and food buff I got there.
@@josevolu What materia and gear did you have? I am about 6-8 points shy myself.
@@iwifia Ragard reach equip and a couple off lvls below market accessories. I thought that this was a little waste either way cause 63-70 goes fast even with previous recepies. for me the gear was really expensive. Push through to lvl 71 gear if you can.

However, I couldn't get the 60/63 macro to work for me, despite having required CP at lvl 60, so I made some edits and then it worked fine for me (even at 472 CP), so gonna leave it here in case anyone else needs it! :D

THIS! I tried everything to make the 2-piece macro to work but couldn't get it and ended up spending more gil to reach success. GG on the fix! - Edit: Inner Quiet is a trait, not an action so that part of the macro fails.
Personally, once I hit 50 I do a Temple Leve in ishgard. I do whichever lvl50 one gives the most xp and turn in a HQ item. Boom 56 or 58. Then i do either a 56 or 58 Temple Leve that gives the most xp. Turn in HQ, boom 64ish. 5min of effort. Skips all that grinding.
For the temple leves you'll most likely need to buy the items it wants you to craft. But hey, time = money. Will i spend 100k to save 2hrs? Yup i sure will. Because just doing 1 solo map each day nets roughly 100-200k more times than not.
1 solo map? What is that?
@@Roach_Toast when gathering you can get treasure maps. There are solo maps and group maps
@@Sargaxiist2022 I assume you mean lvl 80 solo maps?
Tnx for a grate guide, but got one question, how to get to 478cp at lvl 60?
Yeah I don't get this either, did you find a solution to this? I'm capped on CP for every piece and I use Blood Bouill, I'm 3 CP away with food buff....
An FC member helped me find the solution; Cunning Craftman's Tea
These macros dont work. Why does this video say "updated for endwalker"?
Because Inner Quiet is gone
Edit: Inner Quiet is a trait not a skill.
I was just wondering why some of your macros don't use the Basic touch into Standard Touch combo?
Also, the level 26 macro I think is broken. I *think* I fixed it, but idk if I just did something wrong. I have met(and exceeded) the minimum CP requirements you have listed. Anyway, I also wanted to thank you for the guide and the macros and provide a little feedback while I level all the crafters at the same time.
Just on the off chance someone reads this and runs into the same issue, the corrected macro for the level 26 section is:
/ac "Inner Quiet"
/ac "Waste Not"
/ac "Basic Touch"
/ac "Standard Touch"
/ac "Innovation"
/ac "Basic Touch"
/ac "Standard Touch"
/ac "Basic Touch"

/ac "Veneration"
/ac "Basic Synthesis"

I had to remove the third Basic Touch as I was running out of CP by the end of it, even with 260 CP. Using the Standard Touch's also increases the average quality of the items AFAIK... Again, I'm new to this so if I'm missing something glaringly obvious just let me know
Upon further inspection it seems like most of the macros in the document are messed up... Am I missing something?
Danke dir!
I like your gaming spirit ! hardcore! !!!
Hey lovely, thank you so much for this video and informatin. I have one little question, in your macro page it lists lvl 53 as requiring (250 Craft; 322 Control; 292 CP) but in the video at 11:58 you say it requires 356 CP can you tell me which it is please?
very well made video easy to follow and all, but lets say just someone watched this and didnt get it would you make a leveling for dummies type video? I totally understood everything that was going on here this is just a theoretical question :)
I am planning to do something like that, yes

Got all 70+ with two 80. Dwarves ftw! Moogles and Namazu before that. Did lots of leves when getting them to 50 though.
I could do again if i wanted to rush, but i'm ok with this. Slow and steady gets it done.
Much simpler today.
1 get to level 60, get to 20 in the trades you want to level.

I've actually gone the other way with crafting: Sure, Ishgardian restoration for crafting is great... if you've neglected crafting until post-Heavensward. And Ishgardian restoration will eventually end. I have gotten to level 60+ on all crafting classes and haven't finished the Heavensward 3.0 story yet. So I haven't even REACHED Ishgardian restoration. Crafting has gotten ridiculously easy since patch 5.1, where it became streamlined (all crafting classes have identical actions) and gil & EXP for crafting turn-ins with the GC and leves were increased by a huge factor. In ARR, I leveled my crafting/gathering as I leveled my battle class. Now that I'm on Heavensward (but not yet in the post-game), I level my crafting as new areas are opened. Does it take a bit of gil? Sure. Is farming leather annoying? Yup.
Hi. I'm here fromm the future where restoration phase 3 has ended (but about to start again with phase 4).
It will likely completely end after new expansion. But before then, you can still get EXP for crafting. Its worth it at least until lvl 50
Hi, Desperius!
First off, thanks for taking the time to put all of this together, I am excited to try it out.
Secondly, at the end of the video you said it cost you approximately 500k gil, and I was wondering. Was that per job, or for all DoH jobs?
Thanks!
I believe that is per Job because I tried and spent around that amount as well. Good Luck!
@@ghijunz Thanks for the reply! Looks like I have some saving to do...
Yeah, it is per Job
Could you show us the gear you are using for each upgrade, that would be much appreciated since I struggled after lvl 60 to fit into the CP requirements on your guide. Thanks.
Same thing happened to me. I hit 63 (and actually 65 now) and still can't reach the 478 required for the lvl 63 macro. I bought everything I could off the market board and melded everything up to max and even with the food was only around 440.
Same here. What did you do?
@@Rockfello try food
I'm glad I won't need to worry about this, IF I'd known how difficult crafting was going to be I'd NEVER have started PLAYING THIS FUCKED UP GAME !
Great video! But please, please, explain how Specialist Crafter works (Soul of a Crafter) and how to use skills like "Careful Observation" which you get at lev 55.
Best regards!
I didn’t know there was a guide like this;-; I stopped crafting because of the rotation was so confusing and any guides were already around lvl 70 but I’m only 30 and suffering lol
The Ishgard Restoration quests are not unlocked in the Heavensward's MSQ's. It is after the quest Litany of Peace, part of the Dragonsong MSQ's.
These macros do not work anymore in Endwalker, even with much higher stats than listed in the sheet.
Found that I had enough CP with Blood Bouilabaisse (about 331) to just do the lvl 40 Macro at lvl 28. That said, I did upgrade my gear to low lvl 20's gear and high lvl 20 jewelry decked out with materia. The price wasn't too bad, a few thousand gil to match what I already had from doing class quests up to lvl 20
I started with less than 100k and locked to Realm Reborn areas. I managed to get all my crafts to 80 using retainers and the market board, and made a few m. This was years ago when crafting was WAY harder, and I did it before I really knew how to make money. No excuse for people to be poor imo. You try, you make money.
You forgot to mention, that quick synthesis is unlocked after getting lvl 10 with any crafring job
There is some easy to get crafting gear for 50 and below at the grand company vendors.
Thanks for the guide! I did everything per hand until then 😅
Adding Final Appraisal to the lvl 60/63 macro would help with muscle memory accidentally completing the crafting before it even begins.
I think there is something wrong with the 71-80 rotation. I have used this guide to level 5 crafters to 80 before Endwalker and it worked great! since the sheet was updated it seems that a few of the rotations are broken. I may be missing something though. I meet all the requirements for the 71-80 part, but the craft fails. I am level 72 CUL with the Grade 4 Skybuilders' All-purpose Infusion. Any tips?
Yeah I'm having the same problem on BSM. Level 71, and I meet the expectations completely, but every time I use the 71 macros for the Crosscut Saw it just fails completely, and I'm not sure what to do.
Just realized I didn't do my job quests from 60 to 70, I think that's what my problem was. My bad
I used this macro. Forgot where I got it from

great video
I'm still new to the game and have started every craft except alchemy at the moment. I do play on trial, so have no acces to the market. Making every recipe once seems to work pretty well so far (recipes for crafting materials are ofcourse made more often). My crafting level are now between 18 and 27. At the moment I've made profit doing this by selling the random vendors and taking the gill option for nearly every crafting quest reward. Aside from making a bit of money I also don't need to buy new gear, since I craft it. My main combat class is only 26 and I guess I'm not far into the story yet and have 40k gill by only doing main story and job quests.
Can you do an updated version of this?
Thanks for the guide :)
Also, put your own name on the google doc!
That's an amazing guide, but the macros should change a little, because 5.4 added a combo to standard touch after a basic touch dividing its cp cost by half :D
For the Level 71 Macro, the synthesis constantly finished immediately at "Careful Synthesis" (Step 3). If anyone has this problem, change it to "Basic Synthesis" and it should work. At least it did for me. If that still doesn't work, add in "Final Appraisal" (Costs 1 CP) right before it

So what do you do? Do you just alternate between using macro 1 and 2, or what? When do you know to use the 2nd macro over the first?
1 year late but... you got the sound clue in the macro to know when its over
@@AhriFae Yeah I figured that out once I started using it. Thanks for the reply though, might help someone else coming along.
Okay, das ist ein verdammt gutes Video so weit! nur eine Sache wäre wünschenswert gewesen: wenn ich mich nicht schwer täusche, hast du uns nicht gezeigt, welche Ausrüstung genau du zu welchem Zeitpunkt der Rotation getragen hast. das ist besonders deshalb ärgerlich, weil du mit den Macros auf HP-Werte verweist, die man standartmäßig so nicht erreichen kann, ohne zu wissen was man da eigentlich tut. so ist es mir unbegreiflich, wie man mit level 60/63 auf 478 HP kommen soll - selbst mit Buffood und einem rund 180er Gear auf 65 komme ich grade mal auf 418. Dass ich das nicht raffe, mag meinen Englischkenntnissen geschuldet sein, aber die einzige ausrüstungs-aussage die ich festmachen konnte war "kauf was günstig ist und dem entsprechenden Level am gewissen fixpunkten entspricht". genau das hab ich getan, aber ich denke, es wäre klar besser gewesen, die Ausrüstung klar zu präsentieren, die du selbst verwendet hast.
Danke für den Verbesserungsvorschlag, du brauchst auf jedenfall die frische 63er Stormblood Ausrüstung. Ohne die wird das 63er Macro happig
