New Crafter - Confused!

[Ehayte]

I suggest you just stop now if you have no interest in other crafts.

Yeah I might. It looks like if I want to be a good Armorer I need

LTW - 50
CPT - 50
CUL - 37
BSM - 15
ACL - 15


at the bare minimum to have a decent shot at doing anything mildly rewarding as a ARM. Well - it'll be a nice little goal to work towards now that I have all my battle classes more or less where I want them to be. Thanks for the responses so far, I'd still appreciate any further advice if there is anything else constructive to add.

I invested a lot of time into crafting. Here's what you really need:

CRP 50
WVR 50 (some might tell you WVR 15 is enough, your mileage may vary)
LTW 15
BSM 15
CUL 37

LTW - 50
CPT - 50
CUL - 37
BSM - 15

Nice to have:
ALC 50
BSM 50
GSM 50

I've also spent a fair bit on melding my crafting gears. If you plan to, focus on the accessories and belt first, since those are universal among all crafting classes, and so they only have to be melded once. Skills alone aren't enough if you don't have the stats to craft them reliably. You'll notice some 1-star and 2-star crafting recipes have certain craftsmanship/control requirements, which you cannot achieve without melding/food.

It's a real chore for what it's worth to be able to craft 2-star HQ, and the market for it is kinda crashing. You can use HQ mats, and so you won't need to invest as much time, but you should at least get CRP 50, CUL 37, and BSM 15 at least, if you wanna get serious into crafting. That said, don't forget skills cross-class between classes, so you only have to level CRP to 50 once, to use it for the other 7 classes as well.
