Crafting Luminary Tools guide because someone found an incomplete post I made
Hello! No time for pleasantries here. My main advice I’m going to be giving here are either stackable items, cheap stuff, or stuff with buyable crafting materials, so let’s go!
BUT ONE MORE THING TO NOTE
An alternative for every 41-50 class, Magitek Repair Materials is a crafting recipe every job can make and can sell for consistent profits, all thanks to the soulless people who hoard FC housing to become rich with the Workshop Submarines. Exploit their exploitation by gathering Dark Matter Clusters and buying G6 Dark Matter to turn into this item for good Gil. I won’t put this in the individual listings unless I feel like it’s the easiest option for them.
- CRP
1-10: Maple Lumber.
11-20: Elm Lumber is the cheapest option here, and can also be turned into Elm Cane to sell on the MB due to being a leve item.
21-30: Yew Lumber is the cheapest option here, and can also be turned into Yew Crook to sell on the MB due to being a leve item.
31-40: Oak Lumber.
41-50: Rosewood Lumber is probably the best choice for using Shards. Depending on your server prices, a slow but profitable choice is Spruce lumber, though it uses Crystals instead of Shards. Consider Magitek Repair Materials as stated above.
- BSM & ARM
1-10: Bronze Rivets.
11-20: Iron Rivets.
21-30: Steel Ingot into Steel Rivets. You can buy the bomb ash from the Kobold Allied Society.
31-40: Mythril Rivets is a good choice if you buy the ingots from the Amalj'aa. Mythril ingots would probably be more profitable at a cost of less synths per stack. Ingot synth also uses 1 less shard.
41-50: Cobalt Ingot into Cobalt Rivets.
- ARM
Use the BSM guide above.
- GSM
1-10: Copper Ingot into Copper Rings.
11-20: Brass Ingot into Brass Rings. Making the gemstones found in this level range is the cheap and fast option.
21-30: Silver Ingot is sometimes a profitable option. Making the Eye of (Element) stones is the cheap and fast option.
31-40: Like BSM and ARM, Mythril Ingot is a safe choice with the option of turning them into Mythril Rings. Making the gemstones found in this level range is the cheap option.
41-50: Electrum Ingots are a decently profitable choice. Making the gemstones found in this level range is the fast option.
- LTW
1-10: Leather.
11-20: The game already hates you this early into LTW. Make Hard Leather Choker if you don’t want to mob grind and are fine with an item that doesn’t stack. If you’re fine with mob grinding make Aldgoat Leather while grinding them on the western half of Eastern Thanalan.
21-30: Toad Leather is your “easiest” option. Grind for it if needed in Eastern La Noscea at x20 y26 and running to x17 y27 killing all toads you see.
31-40: Best choices are Boar Leather and Peiste Leather.
41-50: Raptor Leather is probably the best option. Dodore Leather may be cheaper depending on prices as it uses a crystal. Consider Magitek Repair Materials as stated above.
- WVR
1-10: Hempen Yarn into Undyed Hempen Cloth.
11-20: Cotton Yarn into Undyed Cotton Cloth.
21-30: Dew Thread into Undyed Velveteen if you’re fine with killing Diremites in North Shroud. If not then buy Undyed Velveteen from the Sylph Allied Society and turn it into Velveteen Turban.
31-40: Linen Yarn into Undyed Linen is a great option. Woolen Yarn into Undyed Wool can be considered if prices are taken into consideration and are ok with mob grinding the sheep in Coerthas Central Highlands.
41-50: No great choices here. Undyed Felt can be expensive but is one of the few crafts that stack for this level range. Consider Magitek Repair Materials as stated above.
- ALC
1-10: Quicksilver.
11-20: Roof Tile. A profitable option here might be Firebricks or Mortar.
21-30: Weak Blinding Potion. Possibly profitable options include Eye Drops and Natron.
31-40: Blinding Potion is the best option here. You can buy all the materials from the Kobold Allied Society Vendor.
41-50: Varnish is a decently profitable choice here, but isn’t simple to make. Consider Magitek Repair Materials as stated above.
- CUL
1-10: Maple Syrup into Maple Sugar. Fishmeal is a profitable option here.
11-20: Kukuru Powder.
21-30: Dried Plums is the easiest option here.
31-40: Cream Cheese is a cheap craft. Simply make Sweet Cream from Buffalo Milk and buy the Night Milk from the Sahagin Beast Tribe Vendor. If you don’t want to spend Gil then go for Dark Vinegar
41-50: Consider Magitek Repair Materials as stated above. There’s no easy options here besides Rolanberry Cheese but you’ll be spending a lot of Gil or mob grinding to get all the needed Night Milk
