Cost to max all crafting jobs?

[MahthildisMMORPG]

How much gil would it cost me to go 20-90?

Especially if I wanna speed run it via spending gil?

[Oizen]

I leveled all but one crafter via GC turn ins and leves using the market board. It cost me around 25m.

I probably could have saved money if I cared enough to look at all the market boards on my DC at the time

[Valkyrie_Lenneth]

Free. No gil costs needed.

Depends on what path you take..,

unless you haven't leveled your gatherers, in the previous expac many would use the mats gain from Ishgard Restoration to level their crafters. which is also low cost.

But leve quests as the previous commenter said are a strong source of exp.
specially if you can get the mats at less than what the leve pays you.

Uhh depends on the method i sppose . . time over gil .DoL in tandem lvling ect. ? Or maybe a mix of your own DoL and buying the things too tedious to get . . . or even DoL retainer so you can set 'em to passive farm

Say method 1 ishgard restoration 0 gil , gathering your own mats, using aether augaor on sprites to get crafting crystals, then refresh crafting set every 10 levels or so. It'd take a lot of time . . . but yeah really no gil spent if you just gather everything and lvl DoL in tandem

method 2 is friend crafts, get a friend, give them the mats to do your leve crafts then just turn in 0 gil if you gather the mats and . . yeah can cap crafter without actually crafting anything ^

i suppose 1-50 on all crafters is pretty much free with cheap guild supplier mats and filling crafting log for first time xp bonus

method 3 . . . just one GC turn in per day

And if you go through restoration to get all to 80 then just go for collectable synths after that to give all the materia you'd need . . . and those are mostly cheap bar LTW

There’s also custom deliveries (lvl 60+), Crystarium (70-80) and Studium deliveries (80-90) as well beast tribes for easy xp in addition to leves and GC dailies.

The job quests also reward good XP (between 1.3 mil and 2.9mil for each quest between lvls 60 and 70 and between the quest givers provide you with the mats at those levels.

[ronibosch]

Using the crafter-exclusive beast tribes to level up should help lower the cost of gil you spend, too.

Ixali for 1-16, Moogles for 50, Namazu for 60, Dwarves for 70, Lopporits for 80.

(Aw, Toutatis beat me to it, but I'll post anyway)

If you're going entirely with just Gil, it will heavily depend on the market boards of the DC really as you'll be buying HQ items to fill up Levequests.

[sharknado]

If you want to force it you would have to buy Ishgard mats from MB and jump between worlds to get the best prices and required quantities. Then macros and craft Ishgard collectibles.

[Kaurhz]

It's free, in fact, you arguably earn Gil, currently.

I would suggest Ishgard Restoration until 53~, these will provide materials for you to do the earlier section of Heavensward through collectibles, and they will provide enough materials to do the quests for said expansion, outside of a few outliers, where you need Void Glue, for example. I recommend looking at the Brass and Steel Sky Pirate Spoils.

You can then work on the master recipe books through this, and similarly, you can continue collectibles right the way through 90, and you can trade the scrips in for Cunning and Commanding Materia, all of which sell for a reasonable amount - and enough for you to recoup those losses.
