Basic (same for everyone)

Professional (pick your specialty)

Each craft requires specific materials. That information is all listed in the craft window.

Compile the mats do the craft. Succeed or fail. Should you succeed there are different levels of success from lowest craft to perfect craft.

If you want to know specifics on anything you are really going to need to do your own reasearch. I doubt anyone has the time to write up an overall crafting guide. Its kinda pointless since there are allot of guides already in existence.

Good luck!

At level 50 you can go to Port Lux alchemist and get the quest to get the transmuter.

Professional crafting you start with the orange color craft. At about 20% another one will turn orange till eventually they all are. Just click on the bottom picture and it will list what you need to craft. Once you have all the materials it will show up white, ready to go. At 100% you try for your proof, and it does and will fail. Persistance pays off here. Once you get lucky you go back to the alchemist in Port Lux and turn in proof, to "graduate" to the next level of crafting. You can crush the proof or npc once you graduated. Also helps to crush to keep the supply of cores to continue crafting. (That's right clicking on the transmuter and click the item to crush.)

Basic crafting you can get through crafting nothing but just crushing till you reach 100%. Then all you need is to get the formula card for the proof, and try for that. This only works for level one though. At level two you will need formula cards to pass those. This proof though you need to keep in your inventory, because you will need it to pass the next proof. If it fails you need to go back and remake another one.


In hindsight I would of just stuck with basic crafting and not even bothered in professional. The materials and items needed start to get way harder to get, and the fail rate is very discouraging. Unless you buy alz or have alot of people helping you, it's not worth it.

Good luck with whatever you decide though. :D
