This is the fun section of Goldsmithing. You can level the first few levels with spare crystals that you get off of monsters. Unless you want to power through it, you can take it slow here without much competition.

This is where the leveling path changes a great deal. It is very dependent on your goals and other skills. If you decide to take Goldsmithing as a main craft, stop now and read the entire guide. Break Synthing is very important to save money in the 70s. Read over that section before you decide what path you take for this part.

Goldsmithing as a Main Craft
My recommendations to you now.
1 - Start seeing what you can tier 2/3 and start churning those out for added gil
2 - Slow down
3 - Don't sell everything to level goldsmithing. The truly hellish part is yet to come.
4 - Do your best to get the goldsmithing skill items. They help in getting additional funds by allowing you to break the HQ tiers sooner.
