Hi,
I'm fairly new to FFXIV and been playing about a month and am totally lost in some aspects of the game even though I was a FFXI veteren.

I've figured out that you can buy equipment items on the wards. But I can't find where I would sell ingredients/loot i've gained while levelling or doing levees. I couldn't find an item category for things like cotton boll, marmot meat etc. Is there a category to find these or do i just sell all these items to npc vendors as my inventory is almost full.

I was wondering whether to keep some to level crafting, but I also can't figure out where I would learn crafting recipes to learn to craft.

Any help would be appreciated.
