Well we all got Armor enhancing trials and Weapon Trials why not take it a stage further and get crafting trials. Whats the one thing crafters would love to see, a list of their items and how to make them. I was thinking maybe the developers would be kind and make some crafting trials. You know the sort of thing make x number of y items and get volumne 1-x recipes in return to store in your Crafting Book(s).
So lets take cooking as an example

Trial 1 - Amateurs
Reward Cook Book vol 1 Lists all amateur recipes
Task Make 100 peeled lobsters

To start the trial you have to be ranked for the craft you want the recipe for or above,
so Trial2 - Recruits would not be open to amateurs
Reward Cook Book Vol 2 Lists Amateur and Recruit recipes
Item required Cook Book Vol 1
Task Make 100 Selbina butter

Well hopefully you get the way Im thinking it would work.

It can be applied to any craft incl synergy (probably most difficult to do though because of the multi player aspect)

I also like the idea of crafters getting together to make items and form a new items bit like the egg buffet idea except extended.

Make and trade to moogle
Wooden bench x1
Cheese sandwich x1
Water tank x1
Grass cloth x1

These could be done by 1 crafter but once you hit level 70 crafts you need other crafters help to carry on making the themes.


How do the developers/crafters feel about these suggestions?
