The Ultimate Noob's Guide to Leveling DoH 1 -50

[Kyonika]

As the title suggests, I'm looking for the Ultimate Newbie Guide on Leveling Crafters from 1 to 50.

I'm talking about a full-blown, but distilled into an easy to follow, "hold-my-hand mommy, I'm clueless and need you to tell me every little tiny thing to do" in a comprehensive Step-by-Step Guide.

As in ... What class priorities to level towards first, and in what order (because of cross-class skills and all that): "Start with class X, go here, do this thing until X level, then go there, do this class, repeat until Y level, then talk to this NPC, do some more for Z class, rinse and repeat until level xx, then go do Leves with exactly this item and this NPC at this Location until level yy to unlock cross skills in a certain order, then do this other thing ... then at this level, use these macros to HQ these things for these Leve / GC turn-ins... ect, ect."

In nearly 6-years of on-and-off trying via random crafting and GC turn-ins, I have only had mixed results to show for it.

I have searched up and down, and have found volumes of info and guides for leveling HW/SB 50 - 70 guides out there, but not a single comprehensive noob-friendly crafter guide to leveling 1 -50 for all crafters. So, let's see if we can find one, or start one here together.

The issue with crafting, though, is there's not really any hand-holding involved.

This is the best you're going to get.

Also, get everything to 15 first, then CUL to 37, WVR/ALC to 50, GSM to 54 and you've got it made.

I would add Carpenter to 50 too. Byregots is really nice to have. Guide? Do 1-15 in the guild. Buy mats from the supplier, craft one of each item and work your way down the list. Beyond that, do GC turn ins as often as you can. Try to turn in HQ whenever possible, and especially try not to skip starred items. Your item for the day is set during the afternoon reset, so if youre close to leveling before the reset try to finish the level - that way your next item will be from the higher level pool and worth more exp. Use Ixali tribe quests to speed up the process from 15-50. If needed, you can craft the item on one class and turn it in on a seperate one you want to level up. Dont skip class quests(worth more exp the closer to at level you do them). Add leves to taste.

I totally derp'd on CRP to 50. If it was me, I would probably go CUL to 37, CRP to 50, WVR to 50, ALC to 50, then GSM.

First get all the DoH/DoL classes to level 15 - including doing the class quests.

Then level up all of them in parallell.
That is useful because you can then share gear among the classes, as well as craft the gear yourself. You will also be able to craft intermediate materials that require some other class to make.
You could get CUL to level 37 first for the cross-class skill. It is the one DoH class that does not depend on the others for materials.

First off this is the best crafting guide out there hands down bar none.

Some of the ARR stuff may be dated, but its still solid.

Now about everything to 15...

To get any craft to 15 just do every recipe once. The guild shop sells everything you need, except the cooking guild doesn't stock fish, you buy fish at the hyaline just off the aftcastle. The guild quests provide more than enough shards. Check with the local levemete before you dispose of the stuff you crafted, some of it will be levequest fodder.
