    Botany, Mining and Fishing - Quick Question

    Really quick question, have been googling this for around 20 mins now and just can't find the answer.

    What is the name of the ability you use to obtain the materials that are needed to socket materia, and which of the gathering classes have it please?

    Also any links you can provide to an up to date information resource with this information would fandabulous.

    [dev1202] The rate at which the Disciple of the Land ability Fingerprints of the Gods triggers has been increased. Also, once the ability has triggered, its effect will remain active for all gathering attempts at the current gathering point.
    This is the ability and the changes being made to it in 1.19a

    Fingerprints of the Gods?
    it's the skill to get catalysts from gathering.

    this is in the patch notes http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...tch-1.19-Notes


    <Catalysts>
    Catalyst items (such as carbonized matter, germinated matter, and calcified matter) can be gathered by Disciples of the Land for whom the Fingerprints of the Gods ability is active. When the ability is triggered during gathering, aiming at the correct spot will guarantee you a chance of obtaining a catalyst. Fingerprints of the Gods can be learned via the quest "Joining the Spirit" offered to Disciples of the Land level 18 and above. To undertake the quest, speak to the NPC Kokosamu located in central Thanalan (29,20).
    * Upon receiving the quest, an area marker will appear on your journal's map. Players should then use an action such as Lay of the Land, Arbor Call, and Gulleye to locate a suitable grade 1 gathering point. Please note, however, that a gathering point yielding catalysts may not necessarily exist within the marked area.

    Catalysts can be obtained via gathering. The type yielded varies depending on the gathering point.

    Find NPC Mutamix located in central Thanalan (29,20). With him are other NPCs that will trigger every quest for Materia.
