Goldsmithing Guide by Raelious for quick skill-ups
Do not expect to make any gil using this guide till you are at least 100+, this guide is meant to just skill up quickly and either A.) NPC crafted items, or B.) Hope the AHbot buys back your item.
Most of the items I will be listing will have a 8-10 level gap in them, so getting Adv. Support is a must. As you will not get any skills for any breaks if you are over 5 levels of the synth.
Most items listed below can either be gotten from shops/guilds, either buy the crystals/clusters on the AH, or farm them in Sky/Sea.
Levels 0-99
0-7 Copper Hairpin (Wind Crystal + x1 Copper Ingot)
- Buy the Copper Ore and craft into Ingots.
- SAVE ONE FOR RANK UP
- Buy/Craft a stack of Copper Ingots, then craft then desynth with a Lightning Crystal
7-9 Brass Ingot (Fire Crystal + x1 Zinc Ore + x3 Copper Ore)
- Buy materials from guild.
- I would suggest crafting a minimum of 2-3 of these stacks, as you will use them to get to 17.
9-16 Brass Hairpin (Wind Crystal + x1 Brass Ingot)
- Use the ingots from previous skillups
- SAVE ONE FOR RANK UP
- Craft/Desynth till you hit 16, you can cap this at 17 if you wish to just use up your leftover materials.
16-20 Silver Ingot (Fire Crystal + x4 Silver Ores)
- Buy materials from guld, make 5 stacks minimum for upcoming recipes.
16-22 Clear Topaz/Kor-i-nor (Wind Crystal + x1 Sparking Stone)
- Can skillup on these as an alternative to 22, if you farm dynamis and have some or if any are on the AH. Ahbot DOES NOT stock these.
20/22-26 Silver Hairpin (Wind Crystal + x1 Silver Ingot)
- Use the ingots from previous skillups
- SAVE ONE FOR RANK UP
- Craft/Desynth till you hit 26, you can cap this at 27 if you wish to just use up your leftover materials.
26-31 Silver Ring (Fire Crystal + x2 Silver Ingot)
- Craft/Desynth till you hit 31-32.
31-40 Mythril Ingot (Fire Crystal + x4 Mythril Ore)
- Buy from guild, make a few stacks.
40-46 Mythril Ring (Fire Crystal + x2 Mythril Ingot)
- SAVE ONE FOR RANK UP
- Craft/Desynth till 46/47.
42-51 xxx Geode (Wind Crystal + x1 xxx Geode)
- Any geode works here, just spam these till you hit 51.
51-53 Gold Ingot (Fire Crystal + x4 Gold Ore)
- Buy materials from guild.
- You will need tons of these, I would suggest about 5 stacks to hold you over.
53-58 Gold Hairpin (Wind Crystal + x1 Gold Ingot)
- Craft/Desynth till you hit 58
58-62/63 Platinum Ingot (Fire Crystal + x4 Platinum Ore)
63-69 Platinum Ring (Fire Crystal + x2 Platinum Ingot)
69-81 xxx -ites (Wind Crystal + x1 of the -ites)
- This is a pretty big gap, but with adv support it will put you within a 9 level gap, and these are everywhere and very easy skillups.
81-88 Orichalcum Ingot (Fire Crystal + x3 Orichalcum Ore + x1 Platinum Ore)
- Either have to farm these or camp the AHBot and buy the stacks of Orichalcum Ores it stock every couple days
- Not a fun level range to be in.
81-86 Elemental Ores (Wind Crystal + x1 Elemental Ore)
- You can skip this if you don't have any elemental ores laying around or none are on the AH.
85-90 Cursed Crown (Fire Crystal + x1 Copper Ingot + x1 Gold Ingot + x1 Siren's Hair)
- Again, not a fun level range. Farm your Sirens Hair or buy from people selling it.
84-91 Muscle Belt (Fire Crystal + x1 Brass Ingot + x1 Gold Ingot + x1 Manticore Leather)
- Craft your own Brass/Gold Ingots, and either craft you own Manticore Leather or have someone else craft for you.
91-97 Palladian Brass Ingot (Fire Crystal + x4 Palladian Brass Ore)
- Farmed in abyssea, save for future recipe.
91-100 Snowsteeel (Fire Crystal + x4 Snowsteel Ore)
- Buy from bazaars or farm it, check Itemtool for monsters that drop it.
Levels 100+
97-102 Palladian Brass Chain (Fire Crystal + x2 Palladian Brass Ingots)
- Craft from what you have left over, these are virtually useless so do what you will with them
- Make sure to cap this at 102, since the next recipe is no bueno.
102-115 Level 99 - -tear Rings (Corresponding Crystal to the ring color + x1 Rhodium Ring + x1 Ifritear, Shivatear, etc)
- Have fun doing these, currently you need to farm either Kukuklan or Sobek for Rhodium Ores. And you need 8 Rhodium Ores per ring.
Goldsmithing is probably one of the more annoying crafts to take past 100 on this server due to the shear amount of rhodium you will need to farm in order to skillup past 102, just my opinion.
