New To Bonecraft..

I am very new to Bonecraft or just crafting in general, so I am looking for all the help I can get. Does anyone remember any good guides that are out there for Bonecraft or any thoughts that might help me along the way?

I have a general idea of my crafting path but I am always looking for suggestions. I started yesterday and got to 17..I am looking to push thru to 50~60 as fast as I can.

Any thoughts or ideas are welcome..either post here or PM directly, thanks in advance for the help.

I usually go to wiki and in the search bar just type in bonecraft. There are lots of guides for each of the crafts on wiki, it also lists all the synths so you can look for something better.

Abandon all hope, ye who enter the realm of bonecraft!

I wouldn't recommend trying to skill up bonecraft very quickly unless you have lots of gil to throw at it. Even then, I would suggest farming materials and crafting in the field, since the smallest-loss synthesis recipes in bonecraft often involve unstackable materials that don't appear in great numbers on the auction house.

That being said, one of the bonecrafting guides on the wiki is pretty nice if you're looking for a relatively quick route: http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Bonecrafting_Guide_by_Ayrlie.

Desynthesis is also your friend, no matter how quickly you are trying to skill up. Keep some lightning crystals on you while synthing.

wewt neat, I have been on the same boat, stopped crafting (break time) once I hit 50 and got my glasses ^^

get out while you can. bonecrafting turned me into this:

... That is horrifyingly hypnotic... I think that's what a drunken female pirate suffering from a stroke while being zapped in the *** with a cattle prod would look like...

You can also check the recipes here so you also see how much you loose out of the craft you're doing.

Check what is cheap on here. You can spend very little doing cheap stuff and npcing alot. Until you get to coral anyways

Desynth </3

Really, maybe its just me, but I'd spend more gil on the lightning crystals than its worth everytime i try for desynth. Usually its even better to just npc what you got and buy/farm new maths for skillup synths. Atleast thats how its been for me, out of 12 desynths its like 2 successfull and 10 full breaks. Even beeing above cap thats usually how it goes for me.

desynth = /rage!

Take your time use Wiki and level fishing if you are really wanting to make profit in the later levels of it. Don't look @ the big selling items and go 0.o I'm gonna be rich .. because that wont happen. If you rush to much you wont know how to make a profit.

I am working on it still and I can't decide what I want to do..I don't know if I should take a break at 60 and get sub crafts to 60 so I don't have to worry about it later or just keep the push going and just keep working on getting to 100.

Right now I am 58.6 with subs basically at 0.

It would be good to atleast start to work on leathercraft imo. You'd wanna do Beast Horn soon, having leather craft at around 30+ so you can find use of the gazillion ram skins that you are gonna get while farming ram horns is a good idea.
