Optimal Job Pairings
| Pair | Synergy | Overlap |
|---|---|---|
| BSM + ARM | Same ores, ingots | 95% |
| LTW + WVR | Cross-materials | 25-30% |
| CRP + WVR | Shared Botanist | Medium |
| ALC + CUL | Shared Botanist | Medium |
| MIN + BTN | Shared gear | 100% |
Recommended Order
- MIN + BTN (Gatherers first — feed everything)
- BSM + ARM (Best pairing, make your tools)
- GSM (Accessories for all)
- CRP + WVR (Botanist materials)
- LTW (Monster drops — use Cosmic Exploration!)
- ALC + CUL (Consumables)
- FSH (Optional, only CUL needs)
Omnicrafter: Phases 1-3
Phase 1: Gatherers
Goal: Get MIN and BTN to 100
Why Gatherers First
- Feed ALL crafters with materials
- Share gear (except main hand)
- Generate passive income immediately
- Shards/Crystals always needed
Level Together
| Method | Levels | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Diadem | 10-80 | Both jobs, shared instance |
| Collectables | 50+ | Scrips + XP |
| Wachumeqimeqi | 90-100 | Shared deliveries! |
Gear Strategy
- Buy ONE set of left-side gear (shared)
- Accessories shared with all gatherers
- Only main hands are job-specific
Phase 2: BSM + ARM
Goal: Get BSM and ARM to 100
Why This Pair First
- 95% material overlap — Best pairing in game
- Make your own crafting tools
- One Miner session feeds both
- Learn crafting fundamentals
Strategy
- Gather ores with Miner (5-10 levels ahead)
- Craft ingots (shared by both)
- Craft BSM items until out of ingots
- Craft ARM items with remaining materials
- Repeat at next tier
Leveling Methods
| Method | Levels | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Crafting Log | 1-20 | First-time bonus |
| Cosmic Exploration | 10-100 | All mats provided! |
| Ishgard Restoration | 20-80 | Diadem materials |
| Collectables | 50+ | Scrips + XP |
Phase 3: GSM
Goal: Get GSM to 100
Why GSM Third
- Accessories for ALL jobs — Combat and crafters
- Uses Miner materials (already leveled)
- Steady market demand
- Gems used by other crafters
What GSM Makes
| Product | Used By |
|---|---|
| Combat Accessories | All combat jobs |
| Crafting Accessories | All crafters |
| Gathering Accessories | All gatherers |
| Cut Gems | Other crafters |
| Glass Items | ALC (vials) |
Key Materials
- Ores: Copper, Silver, Gold, Electrum (Miner)
- Gems: Jade, Ruby, Sapphire, etc. (Miner)
- Shards: Wind + Fire
Omnicrafter: Phases 4-6
Phase 4: CRP + WVR
Goal: Get CRP and WVR to 100
Why This Pair
- Both use Botanist materials
- WVR cloth goes into CRP furniture
- CRP lumber used in some WVR recipes
CRP Makes
- Bows — BRD/ARC
- Staves/Wands — Casters
- Furniture — Housing (huge market!)
- Tools — Gathering/Crafting
WVR Makes
- Cloth Armor — Casters, healers
- Crafter Gear — All crafters wear WVR gear
- Gatherer Gear — Shared with crafters
Key Materials
- Logs: Maple, Elm, Oak, etc. (Botanist)
- Fibers: Cotton, Flax, Hemp (Botanist)
- Monster Drops: Diremite Web, Fleece (combat/retainers)
Phase 5: LTW
Goal: Get LTW to 100
The Monster Drop Problem
LTW is the most farm-intensive crafter — needs monster skins at every tier.
Solutions
| Method | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|
| Cosmic Exploration | All mats provided, no farming | Requires Endwalker |
| Ishgard Restoration | Diadem has some skins | Limited 20-80 |
| Combat Retainers | Passive farming | Slow |
| Manual Farming | Free | Time-consuming |
Strong Recommendation
Use Cosmic Exploration for LTW! It completely bypasses monster farming.
Phase 6: ALC + CUL
Goal: Get ALC and CUL to 100
Why This Pair Last
- Both make consumables (raid demand)
- ALC reagents used by CUL
- Both use Botanist materials
- Endgame products very profitable
ALC Makes
- Tinctures — +10% main stat (raid BiS)
- Potions — Combat consumables
- Reagents — Distilled Water, etc. for other crafters
- Dyes — Glamour market
- Glue/Alkahests — Other crafters need
CUL Makes
- Raid Food — +8% to two substats
- Crafter Food — CP/Control/Craftsmanship
- Gatherer Food — GP/Perception
Vendor Materials
CUL uses many vendor materials — this is intended design:
- Chicken Egg, Table Salt, Olive Oil
- Butter, Sunset Wheat Flour
- Check Material Suppliers in cities
