Hi
my main and only combat class is a smn,now for my gathering/crafting jobs
im going on too try to max a botanist,after that maxing a alchemist for the class itself and it being the main hand that deals with my main combat class.

now with that said,what would be the best job for my retainer?
what items do i need most that i cant get with my current setup that my retainer would be the best fit for?

thanks
