just came back to put a thanks up for this thread seen as they got a new system..

awesome guide. If anyone is planning to take Wooworking further there is a good 1-100 on wiki.ffxiclopedia.org i won't paste it up for copyright reasons.

Take care fellow crafters :p

A good question: Im stuck on 23 at the moment and the guide here shows I should start working on Silver Arrows. This requires some Goldsmithing skill right? Also no one sells Silver Arrowheads in the AH in my server. Is there another way to get to 30 ?

~~~

23-30 Silver Arrows- Earth Crystal, x1 Ash Lumber, x1 Silver Arrowheads, x1 Yagudo Fletchings

Ash Lumber, make it yourself, buy from Guild Shop, or buy from AH
Silver Arrowheads from AH, prices vary from 3-4k Gil a stack
Yagudo Fletchings from AH for 300-500 Gil a stack

Sell results at AH, it is your choice whether or not to put them into Quivers

There are two recipes for Silver Arrows. The one that requires Goldsmithing as a support craft uses silver ingots directly, and is less economical then the recipe which doesn't require a support craft. However, that recipe uses silver arrowheads.

Don't be afraid to level Goldsmithing to help you through this stage of Woodworking. Getting Goldsmithing up to 20 is pretty easy, and can even be profitable. Once you hit 20, you can skill up Goldsmithing by making Silver Arrowheads (just make sure to have image support while doing so).

If you absolutely, positively refuse to touch Goldsmithing right now, then check the following recipes for cost / returns:
- (26) Uchitake
- (28) Chestnut Lumber (if you want to buy logs from guild and save lumber for later)
- (29) Shihei
- (31) Bookholder
- (32) Chestnut Wand

one thing i found out while lvling WW on my mule is i started synthing arrowwood logs like the guide suggests for about 2 lvls, what i would recomend is possibly going with Luan lumber from 2-8...you will hardly fail at lvl 2 it caps at 7 1/2 possibly... i'm not sure the last skill up i got was at 7.5 and after about another stack of luan logs i didn't get any skill ups. then i tried ash lumber...no skill ups there for 6 stacks. after that i took the ash lumber and synthed ash poles which brought in .1 and .2 skillups quite frequently and you can NPC them for a slight profit. capped WW at 10 last nite doing ....

0-2 Arrow wood lumber <I NPCed this>
2-7 1/2 Luan Lumber <Used in Luan Shields>
7 1/2-10 ash poles and ash clubs <NPCed poles for slight profit and desynthed clubs for more ash lumber. got more breaks than wood so a loss there.>

i did take the luan lumber and crafted a few luan shields for a few .2 skill ups.

This is a pretty nice and fast way to lvl 0-10 in an hour if gil provides. Also kinda helped it was windsday... >.>

I think I just did Ash Log => Ash Lumber from 2 to 8. Ash logs are cheap from the NPC, and the supply is unlimited if you have airship pass. You could try and load up on the logs and then get image support until you hit level 3 or 4. But as cheap as the logs are (and as cheap as wind crystals are these days), it's probably just as well if you sit by the airship dock NPC and crank these out.

Ash Lumber is used in so many different recipes, you should be able to AH these. Given that it's used for making status bolts, stacks of these should sell fairly quickly.

I think I did Bronze Bolts (small loss) for one level after that, and started status bolts (Acid, Sleep, Bloody) at level 9. With advanced image support, it's not a bad way to go.
