    Crafting after lvl 50

    I have my crafting up to level 50 and now am not getting any more crafting quests.
    I long ago already purchased Heavensward so that probably would not be a problem

    So how am I able to advance in crafting after levelling my crafting up to level 50?

    (my character level is now 52)
    and btw cannot advance further because all the quests are dungeon ones and I can sit all day staring at dungeon booking and never seem to get paties together. It gets really boring staring at the screen for hours!

    There's a lv 50 quest that was added @ 3.0 you need to do before continuing with the new ones. The gamerescape pages have them listed, for example https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Blacksmith

    Oh, and the crafting quests are 53, 55, 58, 60.

    ...and not sure at all what you're talking about about not being able to advance further because of quests being dungeon ones. You don't need to take a battle job higher to level crafts.

    Have you gotten to Ishgard yet? You should get more crafting quests once you've unlocked Ishgard.

    Well, they answered that already. Honestly it's probably the level, sounds like they were expecting quests the same level as DoW/M job quests and it's not. It's just not clear if they'd done the 3.0 lv 50 quest or not, but they're all with the same npc so they're likely done, unless they'd done the 50 quest before 3.0 and are just looking in ishgard for the next one.

    Looking at Protea's character's lodestone profile, I don't think they've gotten through the last of the ARR content yet to get to HW stuff, unless they decided to stop adding the quest minions to their collection.

    They don't have the midgardsormr minion yet. Protea, if that is the case then you'll just have to keep up with the msq until you've entered Ishgard, then the crafting guild leaders should have quests for you. It looks like you only have weaver up to 50 though, so if you want to do more crafting before Ishgard is unlocked, you have a slew of other crafting classes to level.

    Yeah, Dusty has the right of it. Buying HW isnt enough to continue the crafting quests at level 50 and beyond. You also have to unlock it by completing the patch 2.55 quest "Before the Dawn". I have a friend whos crafting levels got way ahead of his adventuring one, and who bought the expack before he needed it so he could keep leveling up. Sure enough, even if the entire quest took place in ARR territories he wouldnt even be offered the lvl 50 HW crafting quest for any class until he finally got the MSQ to the right stage for it.

    Protea, if for whatever reason the duty finder wont match you with the groups you need to continue, you could try to use the party finder instead. Put up an open party, explain what you need to do(___ dungeon to continue story), and you will likely get a group together fairly quickly. Lots of people jump into those groups to help(or maybe are even on the same step themselves). I know i join a lot of those groups to keep my second chance points full for when im working with Khloe. Best of luck!
