Description
It is in the fires and on the anvils of Eorzea's blacksmiths that weapons and tools of metal are crafted. Their work is in demand at all times in nearly every location, whether it be hammering the blade of a sword at the forge, or whetting the edge of an axe at camp.

The tradition itself stretches back to the realm's Age of Bronze, though the advanced metallurgical techniques passed on from master to apprentice today bear little resemblance to the simple practices of ancient times. The relatively recent birth of firearms has created an entirely new area of expertise which is being adopted with fervor by many ambitious members of the guild. The primary tool of the blacksmith is the cross-pein hammer.

Blacksmithing techniques are capable of weakening enemies constructed of metal, as well as discovering loot that would otherwise be overlooked by the untrained eye.

Blacksmiths provide an edge to themselves and others by ensuring that weapons are always kept in optimal condition.

I found this interesting. So far, I haven't seen any enemies made of metal in the leaked FFXIV videos on Youtube, but there were plenty in FFXIII. I wonder how strong the weakening effect will be?

Beta came and went and a lot of promises have become broken. I don't see ANY need for hand or land to join experience parties. What's up with that?

Re: Blacksmith Stats and Info

Well you can just stand by exp party camps and offer repairs.

Thats what my buddy been doing, by stalking ash sword users and charging 5-10k per repair, hes now at 1.8million gil just from that.

Re: Blacksmith Stats and Info

Still no use for Hand/Land in exp parties. Maybe they'll have special "NM" gathering points in which you need a turkish bathhouse orgy of miners at a "tough" mining point continually just hacking away at it to expose the dark and yet luscious secrets within ....................................................................................... maybe not.
