Turns 6-7 can be cleared with i90 gear.
There is ways, SE putting them in place is another question thought.

I'm sure 8 and 9 could be as well
Only if you're BG
Even BG needed some gear for that.

I must be the slowest at leveling crafting in the game. Just doing the GC turn in takes me way too long, trying to find out which things I need, then having to switch to another crafting class to make an item needed for another recipe. I guess I should be using these leves I have saved up.
Quick synth gives about the same as 1% HQ synth now, so just find some bulk item you can make which requires 1 material and go afk with quick synth on 99. Will cost alot of shards thisway though.
Other way involves doing leve turn ins can get 20 - 50 in one night on about 70 leve quests.
The only thing i have found to be a grind to level was fishing.

Man there's so much to do in this game. For days now I've been thinking of doing my book dungeons, get a T6 learning party going and doing ST so I don't have to farm it the night before reset. Instead I end up leveling CUL, making the gear, the last quests, and master book items. Thankfully cul´s stupid number of mats needed for recipe, that made me fill my inventory with stupid weeds, is compensated with how easy it is to get the master book for it.
I never capped hebdo token since ffxiv began, except every week since Frontline release.
It's really my favorite content in ffxiv, queue time are mostly fine ( thought I guess it depend of hours and GC ), you can play every job you want ( but I mostly play healer because there is never enough of them ) and change it during the game.
It's fun even when you loose ( at least most of the time... complete rape usually aren't fun, but it's pretty rare ), and reward are more than fine for gear and vanity.
Allow glamour in it and I'll be perfectly happy.
I hope they will keep expending on it ( new maps, new vanity/pvp sets ).

So they still have to buy the game? Is the only thing the friend gets out of this the circlet?
And the opportunity to refer their own friends!

Alas, none of my friends outside the game, want to play a MMO. Oh well, the only mount you need is the Chubby Chocobo.
I still have unused guest pass keys from my 1.0 CE I may try and convince someone to use for me. Or just be my own friend and drop on a time card
You can use Steam Wallet you know

Shouldn't be leveling via GC turn in only. For leves you can pick a particular one, gather a ton of mats for the particular turn in, and then churn them out.
I wonder what plans SE has for new crafting gear? I mean we just got ilv 55 Accessories and all of them included some "Demimateria" to craft. I am still using the same ilv 55 left-side gear for 4 of 5 slots... ( Body, Hands, Legs & Feet ) since the launch almost 1 year ago. From desynthesizing so many Artisan Spectacles we can determine the ingredients needed to craft one if we ever get the recipe.
1x Mastercraft Demimateria
1x Fieldcraft III Demimateria
1x Rose Gold Ingot
1x Rose Gold Nugget
3x Wind Crystals
3x Fire Crystals
If at some point we can craft the Artisan Equipment, then we can HQ it... maybe that will be the next Tier of crafting gear?
They will be available for trade-in the same as the Artisan Spectacles... but only in NQ, then we desynth them for the Mastercraft + Fieldcraft III Demimateria and make HQ versions?
I'm saving my excess Mastercraft Demimateria... they are actually selling for less than Fieldcraft III on Ultros. I have a feeling they will be need for something other than the Supra Primary Tools.

You can only pay for your sub with your steam wallet if you purchased the game through steam.
You should be able to since the page says: "To receive reward items immediately, you must purchase subscription days using a game time card. Items will be delivered via the moogle delivery service."
So, I was happy to win the BRD hat at Syrcus Tower... Then I realized the stats were really not good (no Accurancy, nor Critical) :'( I should have waited for an opportunity to get the body instead. Hitting the Accuracy cap for Leviathan, Mog and T5 is a bit tedious (well, I certainly can't wear the BRD hat from CT2 if I want to hit the cap ~ oh well, glamour until then).
I'm kinda lost... What should I get in priority for my Bard with my soldiery? I'm full Myth + Zenith Bow (and a Darklight ring).
Oh well, I'm back to crafting, just for making some money. I'm also currently at 73 dlvl in Goldsmith (it's beginning to take some time to increase). I thought some items wouldn't be bought anymore by the time I came back, but turns out the prices increased instead. If someone has a link to a table showing what to meld where on my crafting equipment (including the new ilvl 55 accessories and belt), I would be thankful. I'm also interested by the same thing for gathering equipment.

amon's hat is pretty popular vanity so that's something. the det is also pretty nice and since you're using the artemis bow, acc shouldn't be a huge issue.
if you want to be frugal with soldiery and buy only what you'll use for long term, just buy the chest, belt, earring, and ring; everything else can and should be replaced by coil2 gear with CT2 being temporary substitutes. amon's breeches and amon's boots are really good i100 freebies from CT2, the former especially if you don't have t5 pants and plan to go rosenbogen.
in the gear calculator i made a set with artemis bow zenith, soldiery body, belt, and ring, remaining left side is Amon's set, and right side is myth accessories. all of this puts you right at 471 accuracy which, food or not, should get you acceptable hitrate for T5 and T6.
Truth to be told, I completly forgot about the food. Thank you very much for your sound advices
if you sit at full myth + an auroral ring, that puts you at 471 as well it seems. i'd probably go into t5 without acc food at that point, althought if you're still worried you can just eat deviled eggs i guess.
yeah they stuck accuracy on a ton of HA pieces (mask, gloves, boots) so getting one or two of those helps immensely. i'm still sitting at 501 though so I need to eat stuffed cabbage for T9.
yeah i was hoping they'd let you give it to friends with inactive accounts and that would count too...it's kind of like recruiting people!!?

lol I had the same thing happen with gloves and casting body on my first T8 ¯\_(ツ

Was lucky and unlucky today. Just bought an Atma book and first thing I do is the FATES, because the camping is horrible.
I needed "Taken" and "Tower of Power". After a few teleport "Taken" popped, which is I heard an extremely rare FATE, so I suppose I was super lucky it popped after 5 minutes of searching. So I shouted that taken had popped, nobody responded, so I cleared it.
Then I teleported to Coerthas immediatly and saw that "Tower of Power" was up. It was at 20% iirc when I looked. I started running towards the spot and saw that was progressing fast! So I shouted and asked for a hold on the FATE.
When I got there, I saw massive spells being casts and I could get in one hit in before it cleared. I checked the two players that were doing it and they both had an Atma.
So it just popped again, after 1.5/2 hours waiting. These books are worse than Atma farming.

CraftingAsAService.com helps out a ton. Use the recipe book to add the GC turn ins you want to do and let the site tell you what you'll need.

I play Ermiance Arscelin. Wish I could go back and change my name to something shorter, lol.
Thanks for helping out the other night with Cape Westwind. I did Castrum Meridianum with a PUG last night and we beat it on the first try. Even after our main tank ragequit halfway through.

No biggie! If you decide to do the last dungeon (Praetorium) let us know and we can get a GAF party going. If you PUG it, you're gonna get a bunch of people who will NOT wait for you to watch your cutscenes. Doesn't happen often but can happen.
GAF is mostly on the Ultros server.
