    Woodworking, a 0-60 Guide to Leveling
    Guide by Evanesce of Phoenix and Allakhazam

    ~~~~~

    Well, it seems that we don’t have a Woodworking guide up to 60, and I’m somewhat bored, so... okay! This guide will go from 0-60 Woodworking, there is a straight walkthrough section and then a section divided into 6 subsections of 10 levels each that will show various options you have for leveling through those levels. Now, without further ado, let us begin!

    ~~~~~

    -1.0) Table of Contents

    0.0) Terms and Notes
    1.0) The Walkthrough
    2.0) The Loose Walkthrough
    2.1) Levels 0-10

    ~~~~~

    0.0) Terms and Notes

    “Guild Shop�? refers to the Woodworking Guild Shop, I’ll specify what Guild Shop if I’m talking about one other than the Woodworking one.

    ~~~

    If trying to get a stack of Arrowwood Lumber from the shop, you will have to be very quick about scrolling down, selecting, and buying, as there is ample competition for those 2 elusive stacks of Arrowwood Lumber that come in stock every Vana ‘Diel day.

    ~~~

    To turn stacks of certain types of Arrows into Quivers, you will need to go to a Mithra NPC that’s part of the Valeriano Troupe, which travels to the city that is 1st in Conquest ranking. She is off to the side, away from the main troupe. Trade her a Carnation for each stack of arrows you want in a Quiver. Iron Arrows, Silver Arrows, Beetle Arrows, Horn Arrows, Darksteel Bolts, and Mythril Bolts may be Quivered.

    ~~~

    You will not gain skillups on failures until you are 5 or less away from the cap, then you may gain skillups from failures.

    ~~~

    Here are the items needed for the Guild Tests in Woodworking up to 60:

    Level Item

    08-10 Workbench
    18-20 Maple Table
    28-30 Harp
    38-40 Traversiere
    48-50 Rose Wand
    58-60 Kaman

    ~~~

    All listed prices are based on my experiences on the Phoenix Server.

    ~~~~~

    2.0) The Loose Walkthrough

    This section is just as important or more important than the above Walkthrough, while this will require you to do a lot of your own research, chances are somewhere along the line you’ll save yourself money checking costs and picking a different route than the one listed above, because of the differences between server prices.

    This section will just give a list of recipes that work decently for leveling within these levels, although the best path (in my opinion and experience, of course) was listed in the Walkthrough above, you may find different recipes more favorable in certain parts, so here’s a loose walkthrough of what you may want to use. No multiskill items will be listed. The item and their cap will be listed like this:

    Arrowwood Lumber, 2

        Another alternative for 59-60, which I think might be cheaper overall...

        Chest (cap: 61)
        Earth crystal
        Rattan Lumber X3
        Lauan Lumber X2

        Since cap is at 61 for chest, just use regular support.
        Hope this helps^^
