Re: Post your Best/Latest FFXIV Accomplishment
That's why I always prioritize BSM over all other crafts and then get the others up to speed afterwards because the majority of primary and secondary tools are made via BSM.
So far what I've found to work quite well for me has been to focus on 1 craft at a time getting it to a specific level (I'm currently attempting to get all my crafts to 30 before moving further) for abilities and also to save on inventory space - I have too much gear as it is and having multiple craft sets for diff levels just makes it that much worse.
It also helps dramatically to try and focus on recipes that have synergy with other crafts. For some this is easier than others such as CRP which you can level largely on lumber which is then in turn useful for a multitude of other things.
Also, pay close attention to leve rewards when selecting them. Before 1.22 I was absolutely starving for steel, now I have more than I know what to do with (though I've decided to save as much as I can for making the level 39 steel set as certain parts of it are worth a craptonne)
If you don't want to burn yourself out, just make sure you only craft when you have rested EXP and/or manuals and then once that's used up go on to something else.
I've been fiddling around with abilities a lot lately and so far the best combination I've found for 25+ has been Sublimation (or the ARM equivalent), Maker's Muse, Manipulation (will eventually replace with Master's Mend), Meticulous Mind and a Brand for whatever element you are primarily using. Once I get ARM to 30 I'm going to see if Great Strides will effectively replace Maker's Muse or not. The guaranteed success is awesome, but the increased progress is potentially far better depending on your success rates.
