    What i'm doing wrong

    I'm leveling all my crafting classes at the same time, i realized that i was better because they compliment very well each other.
    I rushed to level 50 and i found out it was a mistake because i was not able to make any recipe, even the class quests. So i stopped there and equipped all my classes with HQ items that i got from the Market, even i followed a guide and put the Materia, including the over melding, at this point i was able to craft every single thing up to level 58.
    I learnt my lesson and i was updating my gear with every level to up to 60.
    My problem is now i'm level 63 and i am not able to craft any item, probably my gear is not enough, so what i am doing wrong, i wont like to buy my gear on the market, i would like to be able to make my own gear and progress with it. Is it possible?
    If any one know any rotation for level 60 will be great appreciate, I've been checking on internet but everything is very outdated.
    Thanks and please some advice will be great.

    Gear is where all your stats come from.
    As you level up, things get harder to make and you'll need better gear.

    It's the same idea behind battle classes, it's a linear growth. So it's likely not (entirely) your rotation, it's probably the gear.

    Now you have a couple of choices here. You can make your own gear since you have everything leveled, or your can buy it. You say you don't wanna use the market board, well there are NPC shops that'll sell you NQ versions of crafting gear. Enough to get by, at least.

    Make sure you include your stats with these requests, it makes it easier to help with a working rotation.

    CP 428 with food, Control 485, craftsmanship 512.
    My idea is to be able to craft my own gear, i mean nobody level up all the crafters to just buy the craft to other people, but right now is impossible to me at level 63 craft my HQ items.

    and i like the idea of everything getting harder, but i would like to be able to improve by myself and make my own gear, because i could buy it to a npc or to other player or ask in my FC to someone craft to me, but i dont like this i would like to make it, do you get me idea?

    One thing that some new crafters don't really understand that is a good time-saving tip is if you are just trying to get exp, you only need to get around 15-20% quality, after that you aren't really going to get enough or even any extra exp that makes it worth the time/effort. The exp-per-hour drops drastically doing all the steps to hq, rather than just getting 15-20% and finishing the item. I would only go for hq crafts if I was doing grand company turn ins or something, but outside of that I just got the 15-20 and never saw enough of a difference to do all the extra steps. I also stayed in my lvl 50 set til I got to 60, then my 60 til I hit 70 and then my 70 again til I hit 80, so you can make them, but you cant really hq them without lots of luck.

    At least it used to be like that, if that's changed I am sure someone will correct me.

    Your current gear is ilevel 51~, so you definitely need some more power to HQ the ilevel 63 gear (unless you're okay with NQ'ing the 63 crafting gear).

    I'd check if the MB has low cost crafting gear or just NQ a set of the i63 gear yourself with Muscle Memory, Veneration, Careful Synth spam. It's better than what you got now.

    From there, you can probably HQ an i65 set with the NQ i63.

    Vidu was referring to the "Adept crafting set":
    https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Adept%27s_Set

    You can purchase it with yellow scrips. Earn scrips it by turning-in collectables at the Appraiser NPC. To make collectable items, make sure you click the "collectable" button before you make the items.

    If you have been leveling all your classes together, you should just make your own gear sets... That's probably the easiest thing to do.
    If you can't make the level 61 set, make the level 51 set first to upgrade yourself in terms of stats.
    And if you can't make the level 51 set, make the level 45-48 set first.

    In terms of rotation, you should start learning "phases" and "combos" in a rotation. Study the tool tips of each button more closely to understand your arsenal better. Then develop your own ways of combining the actions.
