Crafts


The object of the game is to compete against another crafter in two 10-minute rounds, and come up with the best craft item with the materials/tools they provide.

Here’s an introductory Final Fantasy 14 Crafting Guide that you can use to get started crafting in Final Fantasy 14. Of course it’s a bit different to other games – but I think you’ll find it way different. Let’s get started and find out how you can begin leveling up by crafting.

Introduction to Final Fantasy 14 Crafting

You need a ton of patience – way more than in other games, to level up with crafting. You could definitely see it in two lights: one being that it’s really fun, interesting, and takes you further into the game from a more mythological and fantasy sense – but there are other people who will definitely tell you that it’s a waste of time, work, not a video game, boring, and/or just a thing that they consider tedious work. So if you don’t have the mindset – or the patience for it – then you’re not going to do well with it. But if you’re really interested in it, and why wouldn’t you be since you’re reading a Final Fantasy 14 crafting guide, then go for it!

Pricing crafts. If you are creative and enterprising and able to produce your homemade craft without large expenses there is virtually no limit to the handcrafted products you can sell successfully.

Obviously you want to make a profit but you also want to make your price attractive to buyers. No matter how wonderful your crafts are setting the wrong price may leave you with piles of unsold stock. Your pricing objective is to make a product at a price low enough to appeal to buyers and high enough to cover all your costs, including your labor, and make a decent profit.
