Hey there. I decided to take the roll of Leatherworker. I am currently level 36.
I have a few questions I was hoping to have answered if anyone has free time.

I currently have.....
53 Levequests
98 Boar Hides
38 Gigantoad Skins
8 Peiste skins

I'm a bit short on gil, only able to buy certain items here and there but nothing in mass quantity. Being on Famfrit, the new server, its difficult to sell things because people are constantly undercutting you trying to take advantage of the new economy. There also isn't the option of finding a higher level LW to HQ everything for you.

What types of Levequests should I be looking for to level?
I see the 3 levequests are very popular, but it seems I have more levequest allowance than materials. Would I be better off doing the single item near my level for 40K? What do you recommend and why?
Any specific levequests that really stick out for leveling?
When farming skins, do higher level monsters have a higher drop rate or HQ drop rate than lower level monsters of the same type?

Whats your process for HQing things with 40 durability and with 80 durability? Currently I only have leatherworking skills but I am willing to take one, MAYBE two other crafts to 15 if its really worth it.

Is HQing Griffon armor that difficult/require that many other 50 crafts?
The whole reason I'm leveling LW is to gear up my monk. Would I be better off just farming for darklight than crafting?
