    CRAFTER LEVES

    I've been avoiding crafting classes since day one, all the people said how boring was to level up a craft, so now that i got everything capped and needed to start making gil, i started with carpenter, i enjoy it quite a bit, but the leve system doesnt feel right,

    The problem is this, when i go to the counter npc and try getting my crafting leves its always random on levels, you can choose a leve from 10-20, 20-35 or 40-50, At the moment im 36, but since level 30 i've been feeling this issue, i always complete the leves and i got ups and downs all the time, after a good set of leves the new set will be on level 20-25 so its a waste of leves and time for me, because i even tried abandoning each leve i get like that but always turns to be the same one with the same level, i like getting exp and stuff as reward after completing a leve, helps me getting mats.

    Besides of that problem, theres another thing i dont like and i dont understand, if i have 8 slots for crafting leves, why do the npc's give me around 4 leves per round and sometimes i got a few more, why cant i take 8 leves at once? And lets be honest i dont like going to another city to get the rest because that means more traveling to finish my leves, im talking about getting that in the same city.

    so what im asking here as a constructive thing is to give the same system that the battle leves have atm to the crafter leves, i dont think is something so difficult to do, So if im level 36 i want to have leves according to my level, the battle leves have stars so you can change the difficulty and increases 3 levels per star, would be neat choosing to be 6 levels below the leve so you can start crafting and gaining exp in the fair way. And let us take 8 leves at once, i can live with the fact that i need to travel from camp to camp to finish my leves, but at least give us that, battle leves are made in this way so...

    This. They need to make it so you can choose the leves you want. Random is fine with battlecraft leves, where they offer a large selection of leves for each level range, but crafting doesn't. They either need to add a lot more leves, or make it like fieldcraft and faction leves and display ALL the leves.

    agreed, though with 2.0 in mind.. I'm sure they have something more planned with these. Additions with new leves or exactly what your thinking. Maybe even something new entirely. With the major focus on 2.0 however, nothing will be done till then. I honestly don't mind the current setup, however completely understand why most would desire more.

    What I'd really love to see is unique recipes for the leves, and letting you adjust the difficulty. So, you have a selection of level 30 leves, and you can bump them up like regional leves up to level 42.

    I barely saw any level 50 leves for BSM and when I did one I'd turn it in and come back to desk and it'd be level 45. ~.~ One of my ls members didn't even know there were level 50 craft leves.

    I would suggest doing leves 43+ and also when you cant find the mats you need for the synth. It is also best if you leve with a synth that is 8-10 levels above you with impovise and the necessary brand with the most control gear possible. The reason for doing leves 43+ is that most of the time it is expensive to buy mats that high of a lvl. Another easy way to lvl off of leves is if the leve is giving you really bad exp then hasty hand it just to get the quick exp and free mats and do regular synths on the leves that give you decent exp for a full synth. Another thing to consider is to set you homepoint at the city you are basing your leves at and to lower the anima at the main high lvl aetheryte crystals that you have your turn ins at, this will maximize the amount of anima that you will use, in case you dont do hamlets and dont have infinite anima. Another thing to look for is a leve that you can turn in to an npc that is located in the city (i want a dual box mule with a 50brd for swiftsong so bad), this can make your crafting life aboslute cake. Hope this helps out, gl xD.
