Gridania needs a 3rd crafting class

[Gunspec]

leveling it otherwise is problematic at the moment.....

Soon to be remedied in patch 3.1. I'm in the same boat with my armorer desynth.

But hey, you can get an item called "better crowned pie" from the guy in mor dhona that trades lucis tools. You trade for them with the lv45 levequest mats and moonstones. I had a stack of moonstones reserved for lucis weapons I never made, and dumped them into pies. The pies are desynthable by culinarian, and are equivalent to roughly ilevel 90. That was the item I used to get myself over the culinary hump.

Thanks for the tip. I thought they only took the levequest items, so I hadn't been worrying with it due to the low chance I have of desynthing those right now, but I have a nice large stack of moonstones that are just waiting to be thrown at something.....

Doh - Dancer
Not actually craft anything but dance in public for entertainment purpose.the audience can give them "tip" though.
Player will play music-rhythm minigames and also can form a party with other dancers with maximum of 8 (full party)
The more party member,the more XP but the difficulty will also increased.

Now i can foresee the idol group of catgirls everywhere ...

I think I'd rather Ishgard have a single crafter before gridania gets a 3rd haha.

I'd also like to point out that crafters starting in Gridania are at a slight disadvantage. Here's what I came to realize as I'm finally leveling crafting.

You start a new crafting job, get exp, and do a class quest. You get to choose a piece of gear. You then begin another crafting class, get some exp, and do a quest. You get to choose a piece of gear, and this time you can select something else. Do this a third time then go back to your earlier crafts and equip the new gear. Suddenly you find yourself better off than you originally were. This foreshadows how much more advantageous leveling multiple crafts will be. Something that wasn't nearly as strong in FF11.

Gridania doesn't get that 3rd class, so beginners are at a slight disadvantage. Luckily though it doesn't take much longer to gain access to the other cities.

Why argue the point then, you comment on how oh not having a 3rd crafts puts them at a disadvantage but for only like 2 seconds. Even then it doesn't put them at a disadvantage at all, oh so you have to spend a few minute goes to another area where guess what now you have 5 options, then you go to another area and you have 8 options, in the end everyone has the same amount of options and where you start truly doesn't matter.

If you are going to focus on crafting then quite honestly the first thing you would want to do is unlock airships, from there you have freedom to go to any area on the fly and then even use aerethyte to fly to xyz area. It really is confusing to try and point out how it's a flaw that there are only 8 crafts that it puts Gridanians at a disadvantage for the first 15-18 levels, at levels where it honestly doesn't take as long to level as it does form 40-50 or even 58-60 yet this small disadvantage is enough to create a whole new craft class that quite honestly won't help the situation at all?
