Wow... That's actually some pretty awesome news for crafters/gatherers.

Hurray you're all relevant now! I kid...

Great job killing several birds with one stone-er, materia.

I knew thre had to be a reason I got all 3 gatherer's to 35+...I mean other then I'm a scrooge and am saving up in case there is ever something to spend money on worth it heh :>

*they plan to make it so lvling crafting/gathering up to R20 will be easy

I don't even get the point of this. The average players I know can get R20 in 3 days. I actually find it shocking they keep making is so easy to get R20. Usually games wait a couple years before making the early levels so simple.

Maybe because we can level multiple class?

That just makes it more odd. It's harder to level in other games when you have to make a new character and gear each character, so after the games been out a while it's understandable.

It is very easy to level in XIV to 20 as is, especially as a crafter. I don't really see what the point in making it even easier is. I guess the appeasing of the "I WANT IT NOW!" players continue.

IMO it seems as if 20 is going to be the start of real content for all the classes. Crafters get their new content starting at 20(based off of the translation it seems). I would even further assume for dungeons and when we can unlock jobs(when added). For crafters it seems to be the truth but DoW/DoM will have to wait to be seen.

Just one persons analysis though.

Will be intersting with the Gathering stuff, Maybe I can put my 43 Botanist to use again.

Since the game launched, the dev team comments about the path to 20 have always been that r1-20 is essentially a tutorial (not a very good one...). Right now you can go out and take a DoW/M to r20 very quickly. It's much harder to take a crafter to 20 since you still have to find materials and such for all your synths.
