A Few Additional Questions

[Bowen]

I am level 10 now, I've heard tell of guildleves. There doesn't seem to be a lancer guild in Limsa Lominsa or I'm blind, where do I go to get these?

Second Question: I'm still using the gear I was given at lvl1, all of the merchants seem to only have the lvl1 weapon as well and nobody is selling it in the Markets. Where do I go to get new gear or can you only find it?

Thirdly, do you only get crafting recipes through levequests?

Thanks!

You can get new weapons and armor from the adventurer's guild in any of the three cities. There should be NPCs inside that sell these things.

The LNCs guild is in Gridania.
