Want to do Ixal quests as carpenter, but only get leatherworker quests

[Abnaxos]

I'd like to level my carpenter, so I thought doing the Ixal beast tribe quests would be a good way to do this. However, the guy there keeps giving me leatherworker quests (I've started learning this, too, but don't want to do it for now). I can accept the quests as carpenter and and also turn them in as carpenter and the EXP goes to the job I turn them in as, but I have to do them as leatherworker.

How is the job chosen for those quests? And more importantly: how can I get the Ixal to give me carpenter quests?

I thought... whichever class you used to take up the quest, that will be the class that you have to use to complete the quest...
Did you pick up the quest with your LTW, and tried to complete it with CRP?

They can be done on any class with the exception of the ones that say you must be "x class" just because the item your making says leather something dosnt mean you have to use leatherworking

Is there any chance that you have the special ixal-work-gloves saved on your LTW, but not your CRP-set? You can only craft those items with the gloves equipped, so I could see that being something to easly overlook!

Not for the Ixal. They fixed that for later beasttribes.

It was better today, all carpenter quests. Also, I think I crafted the same things. Possibly, I misunderstood the message about the gloves yesterday and thought I could only do it as leatherworker. Or I has just better luck today.

There are no restrictions on which DoH class you can use to complete the crafting portions of the IXal quests. You just need to make certain the special gloves are equipped (which you can do with any class).

If you want to stick to CRP, you can. Once you get CRP to a high enough level it's not really benefitting from the XP, you could still craft with CRP then switch to a different class like LTW when you're ready to turn the quest in so that class gets the XP.
Keep in mind the class/job switch only works for ARR beast tribes plus the crafting beast tribe quests in HW. All other beast tribe quests will require you to accept and complete the quest with the class/job you want to receive the XP.

Maybe I phrased that not ideal, so let me try again:
You can only craft the ixal recipes when you have their special work-gloves equipped (those yellow things with the feather-like decorations).
My guess was now that you made a set for your LTW that included the gloves, but didnt made such a set for your CRP - so when using your standard-CRP set (without gloves) you couldnt craft the recipes. Switching to a LTW-set with gloves would obviously fix that - just equipping the gloves as CRP (or any other crafter, really) would also fix it and allow you to do those crafts as any crafter you want.

Yes, I never had the problem again. My guess is that I simply mistook the message, that I have to equip the Ixal gloves, as a message, that I'm using the wrong job.
