Using Ixali quests to level crafting

[subteraneanbird]

The XP you get for the turn-in varies by rank of the craft and scales to the level of the class that turns it in. You'll get a little over 50%~ of a level after 6 quests. I would also recommend avoiding Deliverance if you don't already have a lot of money. Unlike the other quests, it is very expensive to do and never gives Oaknots.

I have gone back and done the high level quests and my memory was indeed wrong. The two debuffs are independent. I thought there was one where they were combined, but there is not.

After doing them all my new "pick up my daily beastman" quest routine is. Go to the top level guy, and grab all available unless the quests are "A High Wind in Ishghard", or "West for fishing". Those two quests I'll ignore. I grab all from the 2nd highest guy. Then if I still have any beastman quests left to pick up I'll grab from the 3rd highest guy. Choosing "Left Wing Auronotics", or the one where you kill the headless guys and then go craft in the NE area of the zone where you pick up your relic weapon.

*edit*
Wanted to add one thing to actually be on topic.
As stated earlier when the Ixali quests came out I had all my crafters at 30. Since then I have used them to level 3 crafts all the way to 50. Looking at xivpads.com for timings, it looks like it takes me around 25 days to go from level 30 to level 50. That actually makes sense since: 1) I don't log in every day. and 2) the rewards don't quite give a full level.

Prior to Rank 6, this is not good advice. You can only get Oaknots from the Rank 5 and Rank 6 quests. If you are Rank 5, you can only do three a day for oaknots. When you hit Rank 6, yeah, you want to avoid Deliverance. Until then though, you want to do Deliverance every day to rank up faster. Deliverance gives significantly more reputation than any other quest but only takes one allowance just like any other quest.

Fastest way to Oaknots:

Day 1: Deliverance + 3x Rank 1
Day 2: Deliverance + 1x Rank 1, then unlock Rank 2, then 3x Rank 2 + 1x Rank 1
Day 3: Deliverance + 3x Rank 2 + 2x Rank 1
Day 4: Deliverance + 3x Rank 2 + 2x Rank 1
Day 5: 2x Rank 2, then unlock Rank 3, then Deliverance + 3x Rank 3
Day 6: Deliverance + 3x Rank 3 + 2x Rank 2
Day 7: Deliverance + 3x Rank 3 + 2x Rank 2
Day 8: Deliverance + 3x Rank 3 + 1x Rank 2, then unlock Rank 4, then 1x Rank 4
Day 9: Deliverance + 3x Rank 4 + 2x Rank 3
Day 10: Deliverance + 3x Rank 4 + 2x Rank 3
Day 11: Deliverance + 3x Rank 4 + 2x Rank 3
Day 12: Deliverance + 3x Rank 4 + 2x Rank 3
Day 13: 2x Rank 4, then unlock Rank 5, then Deliverance + 3x Rank 5 (4 oaknots, 4 total)
Day 14: Deliverance + 3x Rank 5 + 2x Rank 4 (3 oaknots, 7 total)
Day 15: Deliverance + 3x Rank 5 + 2x Rank 4 (3 oaknots, 10 total)
Day 16: Deliverance + 3x Rank 5 + 2x Rank 4 (3 oaknots, 13 total)
Day 17: Deliverance + 3x Rank 5 + 2x Rank 4 (3 oaknots, 16 total)
Day 18: Deliverance + 3x Rank 5, then unlock Rank 6, then 2x Rank 6 (6 oaknots, 22 total)
Day 19-999: 3x Rank 6 + 3x Rank 5 (6 oaknots, 22+6*N total, where N=number of days past 18)
