Leveling crafter and gatherers can take a lot of time in Final Fantasy XIV, here's our guide on how to do it quickly.

FFXIV Guide: How to Level up your Crafters and Gatherers quickly

If you're looking to get into gathering or crafting in Final Fantasy XIV you're in the right place. This guide will focus on one of the methods to level up your crafters and gatherers quickly.

This guide will be helpful for players that want to level up their classes from zero to 80 quickly or catch up a few levels in between classes quests.

This guide will also be based on the fact that players will have some equipment to follow with their level increase.

Please keep in mind that while many techniques are available to level up your classes, this one is based on my personal experience and is quite quick and simple. 

How to level up your gatherers and crafters quickly

The basis of this method is to gather or craft items that come from the Firmament in Ishgard.

First of all, you will need to unlock the diadem at level 10 and speak to Augebert in the Firmament (X: 11.4 Y: 14.1).

The method will then be different if you want to level up a crafter or a gatherer.

  • For gatherers: head to the diadem, gather everything that is available to you, and don't forget to use your sparkling explosive Aether launcher to get more materials. Once out of the diadem you can then appraise your materials. These materials can then be sold to other players or used for levelling your crafters. If you want a more detailed guide on the diadem, check out our dedicated article.

With Patch 5.41 for Final Fantasy XIV, the Diadem is now full of awesome rewards! In this FF14 guide, we'll cover gathering and fishing in the Diadem as well as the rewards you can earn including the Skyworker's set and Big Shell Mount.

  • For Crafters: Crafters in the Firmament is where the fun was for me. I got 80 really quickly while earning quite a lot of rewards or items a while ago doing that with one of my crafters and here's how.

You'll need a significant number materials, many of which come from the Diadem. You can farm these with your crafters if you wish.

But which one do you need? To check that you can either open your crafting log, head to Special Recipes > Ishgard Restoration and then click on Restoration (4), or go talk to Potkin in the Firmament (X: 12.2 Y: 14.5).

Once you're here, you'll have both the list of items you need to craft, and the materials required. Starting from the bottom to the top (Expert recipes are not required) you will be able to level up your crafter very quickly — as long as you have the required materials.

Doing this will also award you with coupons of fortune to play the Gacha game with the NPC, just on the right of Potkin, and get more rewards.

Again, this technique is quite demanding in terms of gear and materials, but a very quick way to get your crafters to level 80.
