It's cheesed just the same, crafting for leves is not much better because you just abuse a handful of them. There's really no point to craft otherwise, the ingredients for most things are absurd starting from the 50s on, and you rarely have the skill to HQ on the leveling journey. You can get from 60-70 by abusing single leves usually.

The namazu...what is there to like about them? We know little about them, and the only way they figure in the main quest is the one guy who rips you off. You can do a side quest with one more of them who wants to be a merchant but has no business sense, but they and the lupin really aren't as integrated into the main quest as the moogles and the vanu are. They aren't adversaries like the ARR tribes, and they are just...there. No idea what their primals are, and they really didn't be any part of the coalition to retake doma.

As for stuff, teh crafting tribes and definitely deep dungeon, especially if the focus is on hard content over leveling. We need kind of alternative grindy stuff to work on besides leveling that we can do as combat classes.
