Everyone is now looking at me and saying, "What do you know about leveling a gatherer?" Well, I'm going to tell you. I have only been playing a few weeks but I have been playing with my gatherers for the past few days while SE fixes a bug that has delayed my story progress. I found a few tips that will help with leveling your gatherers.
First you want to bookmark a few pages from consolegameswiki.com that will help you find locations to the items of each level. This will help prevent you from running around aimlessly looking for locations to gather your items.
https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Botanist_Node_Locations
https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Mining_Node_Locations
https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Fishing_Locations
I find these pages very useful, especially if you are looking for a certain item. This will also save you gil in the long run because you will not have to buy your supplies from a vendor or off the MB.
When you start out simply do the quests from the Guild Master. Everything you need is local and you can do this within a few minutes. You should make it to level 5 in no time at all.
Then you want to reference the corresponding page to see what is available to you. Find a location and pick an item. Keep mining that item until you have received 99 of that item. Do this for multiple items. As you level up move to other locations and gather new items. The higher the item level, the more experience you earn. You can also find rare valuables.
After your venture, go make a visit to your Retainer and list those items you have gathered on the MB and make a little gil as you level up critical members in your crafting arsenal.
If you have any other helpful tips please leave them below.
Thanks for reading.
