Local leves

[CrstyCptSteveWitherspoon]

Been getting a lot of rank 1 leves at rank 20 leather(21 now). Curious if anyone else has noticed if each reset results in:

1) New leves replacing the old ones you haven't taken

or

2) Old leves with changed rewards

I remember reading that each reset that leve rewards would be changed. However is the same true for local leves or just battlecraft? I completed all my LL local leather leves before this reset and I received these rank leves: 1, 10, 15, 20, 1.

Really sick of these rank 1 leves - -. I get like 15 sp for each synth.

Some rank 1 leves scale depending on your rank, as far as I know. All rank 5 and beyond leves should scale as well.

[CrstyCptSteveWitherspoon]

Wel I've noticed that if it says "Rank 1 leatherworker" I get no SP and it's a low item. If it says "Rank 20" I get near 500 SP. I know that the same named rank 1 leve can be a rank 20, but I still get these rank 1 ones poppin up. Are you saying that by taking a rank 1 that it will scale? I haven't found this to be true the last 3 rank 1's I've done...

[Lucavi]

I haven't seen any rank 1 crafting leves scale that I've done.

[Hyan]

It looks like there are few rank 1 leves that do not scale and few rank 1 leves that do. There's one in each city, the "X's shoes/boots" leve do not scale, the rest should according to ZAM database.

But yeah ZAM could be wrong here.

I know that the same named rank 1 leve can be a rank 20,

that's what Zam means, I think hyan misunderstood it.

Some leves of the same name will increase in rank. i.e. I have done "to dig a dry moat" as a lvl 1 leve, and just now as a lvl 20 leve.

Other ones, (I wanna say "a Mother's Carpentry" is one) will always be listed as a rank 1 leve.

If you select a rank 1 leve it will never "rank up" to your level.

I get rank 1 and 5s all the time too, I run around and get all the 10,15, 20 I can get in each city, and I use the extra slots to level up subcrafts.

[Hyan]

Oh, it looks like I did misunderstand. Hm, time to visit other cities in that case.

The best is when you are getting rank 20 leves at 17 or so, then as soon as you actually hit rank 20, everything gets replaced by rank 25 leves and so on. I went to Gridania today to check my leves, they consisted of 4 rank 1 leves, and 2 rank 25. This game could do with some work on the leve department but that is just fucking stupid.

I think it depends on how many times you complete the leve. The next time it rolls around, it might be a higher level. I've done loads of weaver leves in Ul'dah, so when I do them in other towns, they're still extremely low level even though I'm over 15. Where as the Ul'dah ones around all around rank 10-20.

I took Restocking the Stockades last night. Used to be elm Lumber or something like that. Hit 16 carpenter on Saturday and got to make cedar lumber instead. Course I didn't mind the extra skill but I was worried I was going to shatter my synths.

I could be totally wrong on this, but I think the towns with the actual guild in them have more/higher leves.

I am from ul'dah and did a ton of them, but now I mostly can only get 1 from ul'dah that's rank 10+, and can get 3-4 rank 10+ from gridania (where the carpenter's guild is).

Weaver's guild is in ul'dah so I'd assume that's why they have the higher ones.

This has been my experience as well. I am only leveling three crafts, and coincidentally there is one for each of the three cities, and every leve reset, the greatest number of high-level leves comes from the city where the guild is located.

Quick question about leves has anyone run into the glitch where you get 0 marks for completing a leve that promises 900 or more? Pretty annoying bug that shouldn't be in retail.

You have to do the leeve with the class the mark are for if you want to get them, otherwise you dont get them.

Example : if I'm pug and I do a leeve for marauder guild mark I wont get any, but if I do one for pug I'll get some.

It actually warms you before you select the leeve.

O that sucks wish it said that somewhere guess I should of known tho. I wonder if it's possible to start the leve as the mark class then switch to another class to kill stuff and on the final mob switch back to the mark class and attempt to last hit it so you can still get credit for the leve (doubtful).

It pops up a warning before you commence the Leve that "Warning: You cannot earn guild marks on your currently assigned class" "Commence/Abort" or something along those lines. As long as you switch to the appropriate class before you kill the first mob in the leve, you're safe. I've been getting GLD marks a ton that I don't really care about, so I've been playing around to see at what point it truly registers you as the wrong class for the purpose of earning the marks. As long as you switch before you engage the first mob and stay on the class for the duration of the leve, you're fine.

That makes sense, I'm in grid tonight, so I'll see if I can grab some high level leatherwork and low level weaver stuff.

Cooking is my highest crafting class right now and Gridania only offers me Rank-1 Local Leves. Alchemy leves in Gridania, were pretty across the board, and like 50% more of them. Seems pretty random as shit.

[Malacite]

What I don't get is why I can access the rank 20 BOT leves in Ul'dah, but not my home city of Limsa. WTF?

Also leve timer really needs to be lowered to 24 hours... 18 sets of leves a month is crap (or 9 every 2 weeks)

[miokomioko]

Gathering shit is stupid. Each guild's home-city zones will only have Rank~30 leves. Plus, only having 2 leves for each rank range is bullllllshit. Guild marks are going to take fucking ages.

I'm 1/4 on Rank~20 leves having guild mark rewards... only 2 chances at them every 36 hrs.
