Miner Guide

2022-01-10T21:48:55Z

JCVanderbilt: Camp Dragonhead is in Coerthas Central Highlands

{{TOCRIGHT}}
{{see also|Guides}}
[[Miner]] is one of three available [[Gathering]] Classes players can equip. Players will travel around the land searching for mining nodes called '''Mineral Deposits''' that can be used to gather elemental crystals, gems and other resources. Players who would like to unlock the [[Miner]] gathering class must first reach level 10 with either a [[Disciple of War]] or [[Disciple of Magic]], then head to the [[Miner's Guild]] in [[Ul'dah]] and speak to the Guild Receptionist, [[Linette]], and undertake the quest [[Way of the Miner]]. Mining in particular is a fantastic way to make [[Gil]], as most of the resources obtained this way are useful to most crafting classes and can be sold very quickly via the [[Market Board]].

==Attributes==
While Disciples of War and Magic use various attributes such as '''Attack, Defense, Mind & Intelligence''', gathering classes only use 2 class-specific stats:

*'''Gathering''': Increases the likelihood of gathering an item from a node. Items of a higher level will require a higher '''Gathering''' level. The more items obtained in a row also contributes to a higher '''Chain''', resulting in more items and more EXP.
*'''Perception''': Allows for the opportunity to gather a [[High Quality]] Item, up to 15%. This does not increase the chance of getting items that cannot be obtained in high quality form.
[[Disciples of the Land]] also use a resource called [[GP]] which functions similarly to [[MP]] and is used to perform various skills and abilities to improve the odds of obtaining items from each node.

==How to Gather==
Once unlocked, players will equip a Miner's [[Pickaxe]] and use the skill [[Prospect]] (This becomes a passive ability at lv.2, no longer requiring players to manually activate it) to reveal [[Mineral Deposits]]. Approaching these deposits and interacting with them, players will see a list appear on screen that will be empty the first time a player interacts with that deposit. This display will show what items are available at this node, the items level, and the percent chance of getting a HQ version of that item once they unlock '''Perception''' at level 12. Each node has 6 strikes available, meaning players will have 6 chances to receive items from each node before it is exhausted.
When interacting with a node that has an 'Unknown' item, players will have a 10% chance of obtaining the item. Once players have obtained the item for the first time, the item will populate the list and reveal what odds players have obtaining a normal/high quality version of that item, as well as the items level.
Every 5 levels, players will be able to undertake a class quest and unlock new nodes to mine. Players will not be able to mine (or even see) nodes at a higher level then them, so leveling up and completing these quests are extremely important.
Some nodes will have hidden extra conditions that, if met, will buff players when mining at these nodes. Players will be able to view these hidden extra requirements by unlocking a passive trait called [[Stone Whisperer]]. These can range from using specific abilities to having a particular stat reach a certain number.
===Scrips===
Once players reach lv.50 with a [[Disciple of the Land]], they will be able to undertake the quest [[Inscrutable Tastes]] from [[Morgayne]] in Foundation. Upon completing this quest, players will be able to gather [[Collectables]] and turn them in to a [[Collectable Appraiser]] in exchange for [[Yellow Scrips]] (if players are lv. 80 on their Miner class, they will receive [[White Scrips]] instead). Scrips function the same as [[Tomestones]] do for War/Magic jobs, allowing for the purchase of high-end gear, items and materials. It is important to note that scrips for gatherers are separate from scrips for crafters, so one currency cannot be exchanged for items requiring another currency.
While there are Collectable Appraisers in each major city state ([[Ul'dah]], [[Limsa Lominsa]], [[Gridania]], [[Mor Dhona]] and [[Rhalgr's Reach]]), additional Appraisers can be unlocked in [[Idyllshire]], [[Tamamizu]], [[The Crystarium]] and [[Eulmore]] by completing the requisite quest in those areas.
Once the initial quest is completed, players will have access to the ability '''Collector's Glove''', which will allow players to gather collectables from different nodes by using various '''Appraisal Skills''', then collecting the item.

==Gear==
The higher the level of the node, the higher the stat requirement will be to get anything from that node. The best way to ensure players are able to successfully mine from high-level nodes is to maintain the best gear for the current level. Gear can be obtained in several ways:
* '''[[Vendors]]''': Like any other gear, players can buy gear and tools at different levels from vendors in the same area in each city state as weapon and armor vendors. This gear will be grey quality gear that will give some stat increases.
* '''[[Quests]] and [[Levequests]]''': Completing various quests and Levequests will often reward players with new gear and equipment. The latter is especially effective for getting gear with better stats than what can be purchased from normal vendors.
* '''[[Scrips]]''': Turning in Collectables will reward players with scrips, which can be exchanged for high-end/endgame level gear.
* '''[[Crafting]]/[[Market Board]]''': With the materials being gathered, if players have the correct crafting class leveled, they can then craft higher level gear. Alternatively, this gear can be purchased from the [[Market Board]]. Be wary, however, as the price for each piece of gear can vary wildly.
Like with War and Magic classes, players can also attach [[Materia]] to their gear, further increasing stats and making gear more useful for longer.

==Leveling==
While gathering resources, players will naturally level up. Reaching a higher level lets players complete class quests, allowing them to farm higher level nodes, equip better gear, etc.
===Ways to gain EXP===
Aside from farming mining nodes endlessly, players have a wealth of ways to gain EXP quickly:
* '''Gathering Log''': Players can gain EXP for collecting items for the first time, or collecting many of a single item, and can use the [[Gathering Log]] to keep track of this. This is best used in conjunction with other activities.
* '''Levequests''': [[Levequests]] are a great method to garner massive EXP, as well as unique items and stronger gear. These are relatively quick to complete, and when combined with an EXP buff, are one of the best ways to level a Miner. Some Leves will also have an '''Evaluation''' which, if players get the best possible rating, will result in even more EXP.
* '''Class Quests''': Completing the class quest available every 5 levels, while giving great items and gear as rewards, also give a decent amount of EXP. This is yet another reason why completing these is so critical.
* '''The Diadem''': Once unlocked in [[Ishgard]] after getting a Gathering class to at least lv. 20, players can enter this special zone to gather plenty of rare and unique items, and a massive amount of EXP per visit. The lowest level gathering nodes are lv. 10, so keep this in mind if bringing a low-level gathering class in here.

===EXP Buffs===
There are ways to gain a buff to how much [[EXP]] is gained for each mining attempt:
* '''EXP Gear''': Certain gear obtained from upgrading to the [[Collector's Edition]] will give an EXP buff of 30% as long as the class is under a certain level. The [[Friendship Circlet]] also gives an EXP buff of 25% until lv. 25.
* '''Food''': Food will buff certain stats, based on what is eaten, as well as a 3% EXP bonus. This buff lasts 30 minutes but can be extended to an hour by eating 2 food items. It should be noted that the stat buffs of one food item will not stack with the buffs of a different item.
* '''Road to 70''': This buff is given to players who create a new character on a [[Preferred World]]. This can be confirmed by checking the '''Server Status''' page on the official Final Fantasy XIV website. The buff gives a 100% EXP buff to any job under lv. 70.
* '''Earth & Water''': This buff is activated by a [[Free Company]] and can give a gathering EXP buff of up to 20%.
* '''Manuals''': Players can use these items to obtain a boost to EXP that lasts for about 2 hours. These are obtained from a players [[Grand Company]] in exchange for [[Grand Company Seals]].
These EXP buffs can be stacked, excluding the Free Company and Manual buffs, and can greatly reduce the amount of time it takes to level a gathering class.

==Class Quest Guide==
As mentioned above, every 5 levels up to level 50, and every 2-3 levels from 50 and beyond, players can complete a class quest to obtain gear and abilities. These quests will require players to bring a set number of specific items to the guild master. Here, we will list each item required per quest, where to get these items, and the most efficient way to level up in between. It is generally recommended that players farm items when they are able to, instead of grabbing them while they are doing the quest to save time. This guide will assume players are at least using the 3% EXP buff from food.

===Quest lv.1===
Item turn-in: 10x [[Copper Ore]]

For this quest, players will most likely hit lv. 5 while mining for the [[Copper Ore]]. Players can save time by taking the Levequests available from both the [[Ul'dah Adventurer's Guild]] and [[Scorpion's Crossing]] and gathering the items for both the lv.1 and lv. 5 quest upon leveling up. These items can be mined from just about anywhere. Bring the Copper Ore to [[Adalberta]] to finish the quest.
===Quest lv.5===
Item turn-in: 50x [[Bone Chip]]

By the time players have finished grinding out the Bone Chips required, they will be well past lv. 10. If players farmed these before bringing back the Copper Ore, both quests can be turned in consecutively, and the next quest can be picked up at the same time. It is recommended that players grab the equipment upgrades here.
===Quest lv.10===
Item turn-in: 99x [[Obsidian]]

Players can obtain Obsidian from [[Western Thanalan]] and begin taking the Leves from [[Horizon]]. Again, by completing the grinding here for the class quest, players will be able to reach lv. 15 by the time they are done farming. It is recommended that players also grab some [[Tin Ore]] and [[Zinc Ore]] as well, as these are a great item to sell for a lot of Gil and farming more EXP. Bring the Obsidian back to Adalberta to complete the quest and take the gear upgrade.
===Quest lv.15===
Item turn-in: 10x [[Cinnabar]] HQ

By this point, players should upgrade their gear, mainly the [[Main Hand]], [[Off-Hand]] and [[Chest]] pieces, as they give the most points to the [[Gathering]] stat, as well as a nice boost to [[Perception]]. Gloves and Pants should also be upgraded by this point, as they give a decent boost to Gathering as well, but not as much as the aforementioned gear slots. Helms, Belts and Boots should also be upgraded as they give a great bump to Perception (If players have to choose between which pieces of gear to upgrade, the first three are the most important, followed by the Gloves and Pants, then the Helms. Boots and Belts are the lowest gear pieces in terms of how much of a stat buff they give). Players can continue mining around [[Horizon]] to obtain HQ Cinnabar, while also farming Ores and [[Iron Sand]] and [[Copper Sand]] to stockpile for any crafting classes players may also be leveling. The best Leve for leveling and getting items at this point is [[The Doom that Came to Belah'dia]] in [[Eastern Thanalan]].
===Quest lv.20===
Item turn-in: 99x [[Grade 1 Carbonized Matter]]

The Grade 1 Carbonized Matter can be found in [[Middle La Noscea]] at the [[Three-Malm Bend]]. The mining node for this item is only available once the player reaches lv. 20, so this one isn't something that can be farmed earlier. It is also recommended that players farm for stacks of some of the other lv. 20 items available for crafting classes, such as [[Raw Sphene]] and [[Raw Danburite]]. Players can grind two sets of 99 Carbonized Matter if they are leveling [[Botanist]], as it is also required for that class's lv. 20 quest. In terms of gear, players should have upgraded their main and off hand tools by this point. If players are looking to farm levels at this point as well, taking on the [[Look How They Shine for You]] Leve in the [[South Shroud]] is a fantastic way to level up, as the bonus from a high evaluation is quite large.
===Quest lv.25===
Item turn-in: 15x [[Effervescent Water]] HQ

This item can be found in the [[South Shroud]] on the [[Upper Paths]]. There are also the Shards of the different elemental crystals that can be farmed here. These are very valuable, both to other players and for [[Supply Missions]]. Players can stock up on [[Silver Ore]] here as well. For gear, players should still be upgrading gear that gives [[Gathering]] over gear that gives [[Perception]] if they have to choose between what gear they upgrade. For leveling, the best Leve to farm at this level is [[Fool Me Twice]], also found in the South Shroud.
===Quest lv.30===
Item turn-in: 15x [[Wyvern Obsidian]] HQ

This item is found in [[Eastern Thanalan]], in the [[Wellwick Wood]]. Using abilities that increase the chance to get multiple items, or skills that increase the chance to get a HQ item should be a priority here. There isn't too much that is worth grinding stacks for outside of the elemental shards and Silver Ore. When upgrading gear, go for the mainstays of the main and off hand, and chest pieces to increase Gathering, and the Perception pieces should be regularly upgraded at this point as well. Players should also start upgrading their accessories, as they give a boost to GP. Players can also start taking on the Leves available around [[Costa Del Sol]], as they give good EXP at this point, especially [[I Kidd You Not]].
===Quest lv.35===
Item turn-in: 20x [[Raw Amethyst]] HQ

Raw Amethyst HQ can be found in the [[Central Shroud]] at [[Sorrel Haven]]. Players can also farm [[Mythril Ore]] in [[Southern Thanalan]] for good EXP and potential Gil. Players should by this point do a full gear upgrade (aside from accessories) to maximize Gathering and Perception due to the item levels increasing. For farming levels, [[Rocks for Brains]] and [[Mythril Madness]] in [[Coerthas Central Highlands]].
===Quest lv.40===
Item turn-in: 20x [[Jade]] HQ

Jade HQ is found in [[Coerthas Central Highlands]] at [[Dragonhead]]. There isn't a lot to grind here outside of [[Black Alumen]] and Jade that will be particularly valuable or useful to other classes. Players can upgrade their Gloves, Legs and Feet gear to current level, and the Belt if they can afford it. As most of the item’s players will need are HQ, now is a good time to start increasing Perception. Players can make use of the Leves from the Coerthas locations at this point, with [[Not Losing Our Heads This Time]] being the best one to undertake repeatedly.
===Quest lv.45===
Item turn-in: 20x [[Electrum Ore]] HQ

These can be found in [[Upper La Noscea]] at [[Bronze Lake]]. Using [[Unearth]], [[Deep Vigor]] and [[King's Yield]] will help with obtaining items quicker. Once again, there isn't too much that will be useful to stockpile. Players should use this time to also grind to lv. 50 to begin collecting the next quest item, as the next item can only be mined starting at lv. 50. Players don't need to worry about upgrading gear right now if they have been keeping up with upgrades up to this point. The best Leves to take at this point are in [[Mor Dhona]], with [[Hybrid Hypotheses]] giving the most EXP.
===Quest lv.50===
Item turn-in: 3x [[Darksteel Ore]]

At lv. 50, players will unlock the ability to discover [[Unspoiled Nodes]]. This is the only way to find the item required for this quest. Players will need to use the ability '''Truth of Mountains''' to be able to locate this node. It appears at [[Camp Dragonhead]] in [[Coerthas Central Highlands]] at 1am and lasts for three in-game hours. Players can see what time it is in-game by turning on the '''Eorzea Time''' clock in the [[Character Settings]] menu under [[HUD]]. Players can upgrade their gear if they wish, however it may be better to wait until lv. 53 to do so to get a drastic upgrade to gear and stats. Players can turn these items in to finish the quest and complete the following requisite quest, which doesn't require mining anything. The next nodes in [[Ishgard]] won't be visible until at least lv. 51, so a little grinding will need to be done before moving on. From here, players will also receive quests from [[Haimirich]] in [[Foundation]].

After lv.50, players will now be able to complete the sidequest [[Inscrutable Tastes]] from [[Morgayne]] in [[Foundation]]. Completing this quest will allow players to begin gathering [[Collectables]] and use the [[Collectable Action]]. Players will be able to trade in Collectables to Appraisers to obtain [[Scrips]], which can be traded in for HQ high-end gear, items and [[Materia]], amongst other things.
Collectables are obtained from Unspoiled Nodes, are unsellable and can when traded give a massive amount of EXP. Players can use [[Collector's Glove]] to see if a node has a collectable, then increase the collectability by using '''Appraisal Skills'''. Players will want to get the collectability as high as possible without letting the "Wear" hit its maximum. Using these abilities will cost a fair amount of GP, so players will need at least 600GP to effectively farm collectibles. This can be achieved by upgrading accessories or eating food.
From here, players will rotate between mining materials and collectibles, and completing Levequests. Do this until reaching lv. 51 and move into Ishgard, specifically [[Coerthas Western Highlands]] to mine for materials and collectibles there. Players can do this until they reach lv. 53. It should be noted that players can begin taking on Leves from [[Ishgard]], however they are rather expensive for the amount of EXP they give.
For the following levels, each section assumes players have unlocked [[Flying]] for every zone, as it makes moving around each zone much easier.

===Quest lv.53===
Item turn-in: 10x [[Mythrite Ore]] HQ

At this point, players can upgrade to a HQ gearset and affix Materia to it and receive enough of a buff to stats to make the gear usable until lv. 63. Players should either craft the [[Wyvernskin]] HQ gearset with a [[Mythrite Pickaxe]] and [[Mythrite Sledgehammer]], as well as a [[Holy Rainbow Hat]] and a [[Mythrite Earring of Gathering]] or purchase these items from the Market Board. For Materia, players should affix [[Gatherer's Guerdon IV]] Materia to all the slots of the gear. This will ensure the gear is as useful as possible for as long as possible. Players can then mine the Mythrite Ore from Coerthas Western Highlands and comes from almost all nodes. For grinding levels, the Leves [[The Merits of Upcycling]] and [[Destruction of Religious Property]] are the most effective. Players can also grind for levels and materials in [[The Diadem]] at this point.

Players can also begin gathering the [[Yellow Quartz]] from the [[Churning Mists]] at 6am, and the [[Pyrite]] from the [[Dravanian Forelands]] at 8am. Players can continue grinding levels until they can mine the 10 Titanium Ore from the [[Chocobo Forest]] in the [[Dravanian Forelands]] for the next quest.
===Quest lv.55===
Item turn-in: 10x [[Titanium Ore]] HQ

Players can mine these in the Chocobo Forest, as stated before. The new collectibles unlocked at this point are the [[Chalocite]] in the Dravanian Forelands at 8am, and the [[Green Quartz]] from the Churning Mists at 6am. Players can fill out the [[Gathering Log]] to gain extra EXP to push to lv. 56 to unlock the next set of mining nodes. For grinding Leves, the only one’s worth doing at lv. 56 are [[Mortarin']] and [[A Spire for New Heights]], as they have evaluation bonuses.
===Quest lv.58===
Item turn-in: 10x [[Hardsilver Ore]] HQ

Players can farm these from the node next to the collectible node that drops [[Light Kidney Ore]] at 2am. Players can also gather [[Abalathian Rock Salt]]. These collectibles are a great farm for scrips at this point. At this point it is highly recommended that players farm nodes to fill out the [[Gathering Log]] for the EXP as well as the previously mentioned Leves, as well as [[Sharlayan Sympathizers]] to get to 60 to begin farming the [[Adamantite Ore]] for both the value as well as the following quest. Players can also begin farming [[Hardsilver Sand]] and [[Hardsilver Ore]], as these can be very valuable.
===Quest lv.60===
Item turn-in: 3x [[Adamantite Ore]] HQ

Players can mine for [[Red Quartz]] in the [[Sea of Clouds]] at 10am, as well as the [[Cuprite]] in the Dravanian Hinterlands at 2am. The Adamantite Ore is obtainable from the Unspoiled Node at [[Azys Lla]] at 11am. Using appraisal skills, perception increasing skills, and skills that increase how many items can be obtained per attempt are the most useful here. With the gearset mentioned above, players will have enough stats to get these items without much trouble.
After completing this quest, players will complete another quest to finish off the [[Heavensward]] Mining questline. From here, players should level up to lv. 61 to unlock the new mining nodes in [[The Fringes]]. The easiest way to do this is to mine [[Raw Triphane]] at 2am and 2pm, as well as a host of newly available Leves, like [[Cermet Breaker]], which has a high evaluation reward. Players can also grind to lv. 63 and do another large gear purchase to make their gear usable until lv. 71. Players will also get their next quests from [[Nonowato]] in [[Idyllshire]] from this point on.
===Quest lv.63===
Item turn-in: 3x [[Beggar's Mythril Ore]] HQ

At this point, players can either craft or purchase the HQ [[Gyuki]] gearset with the [[High Steel Dolabra]] and [[High Steel Sledgehammer]] and fill all the slots with [[Gatherer's Guerdon V]]. Players can also purchase the [[Ironworks Gathering]] gearset with [[Yellow Scrips]] and affix Materia to that as well. This will make it much easier to gather materials for this series of quests.
From here, players can grind [[Koppranickel Sand]] in [[The Peaks]] at [[Rustrock]] for massive value, as this item is very useful for people leveling up crafting classes. Players can also obtain the quest item at [[The Fringes]] in [[The Striped Hills]] and are only collectible during this quest.

===Quest lv.65===
Item turn-in: 5x [[Feather Iron Ore]] HQ

At this point, players can farm [[Crescent Spring Water]] for decent EXP and sale value. These can be obtained from [[The Gensui Chain]] in [[Yanxia]]. Players can also complete the Leves [[No Stone Unturned]] and [[Simply Marble Us]], both of which have fantastic bonuses for high evaluations. Players can obtain the quest item from [[Hell's Lid]] in [[The Ruby Sea]] and can only be obtained when the quest is active. For leveling, players can farm [[Durium Sand]] at [[Onsal Hakair]] in [[The Azim Steppe]], as well as [[Doman Iron Sand]] in the same area. These have a large EXP value and can be traded for a high number of Scrips. Many of the Leves available are not very good for leveling up at this point, so farming the collectibles might be more worthwhile.
===Quest lv.68===
Item turn-in: 8x [[Serpentine]] HQ

This step doesn't have much to do in it, aside from farming the quest item at The Gensui Chain in Yanxia. The only worthwhile Levequest to do is [[Mine All Mine]] from [[Kugane]], which does reward massive EXP. Players can also farm [[Palladium Sand]] at Onsal Hakair in The Azim Steppe at lv. 69 for a decent amount of EXP and sale value.
===Quest lv.70===
Item turn-in: 5x [[Pummelite]]

This item is only obtainable in [[Rustrock]] at [[The Peaks]] from Unspoiled Nodes at 8am and 8pm for two hours, and only while the quest is active. In the meantime, while waiting for the Node's window, players can farm [[Molybdenum Ore]] from [[The High Bank]] in [[The Lochs]] or farm the other collectible nodes up to this point, as well as completing the previous Levequest.

From lv.70 onwards, level and material grinding becomes very formulaic. Players will generally cycle through the same order of content to level up to 80. The first step is getting to lv. 71 to have access to the [[Norvrandt]] nodes and collectibles, as well as the next big gearset purchase. Grinding the lv. 70 Leves in [[Kholusia]] are a great way to level up at this time, as long as players are grinding the Leves with 4 and 8 Node Evaluations. The Leves will scale with the players level, although after lv. 71, they tend to be something to do mixed in with farming collectibles and other materials. At this point, doing the Daily [[Grand Company]] delivery missions will net players a massive amount of EXP for HQ materials, as well as the Weekly Custom Deliveries.
Like with the War and Magic classes, there are class quests of sorts, one for Gatherers, and one for Crafters. It should be noted that completing these quests with Miner will render them completed and won't be able to be done on Botanist. To begin the questline, players will complete the quest [[On the Trail of a Myth]] obtained from [[Qeshi-Rae]] in [[The Crystarium]]. Upon completing this, players will be able to partake in the [[Crystarium Deliveries]], allowing players to turn in various items to raise their [[Esteem]]. The items turned in can be of any quality, however turning in HQ items will net players a much larger sum of EXP.
===Delivery Lv. 70===
Item turn-in: 18x [[Animal Trace]] HQ

Before heading out to farm materials, players can upgrade their gear to carry them through to lv. 80. Players should purchase or craft the HQ versions of the [[Brightlinen Turban of Gathering]] and [[Brightlinen Coat of Gathering]], the [[Smilodonskin Gloves of Gathering]], the [[Smilodonskin Survival Belt]], the [[Brightlinen Bottoms of Gathering]], the [[Smilodonskin Shoes of Gathering]], and the [[Smilodonskin]] accessory set. For the main and off-hand tools, the HQ [[Deepgold Pickaxe]] and HQ [[Deepgold Sledgehammer]] are great here. For Materia, affixing [[Gatherer's Guerdon VI]] to everything will get players the requisite Gathering level. Players will also want to use the HQ [[Mushroom Sauté]] to boost Gathering and Perception further.

For this phase, players should farm Animal Trace from [[The Inn at Journey's Head]] in [[Amh Araeng]], complete Leves on a cycle, and mine for the collectibles available at this point, [[Raw Hematite]] in [[Kholusia]] at 2am and 2pm, available for 2 hours, and the [[Raw Diaspore]] in [[Il Mheg]] at 6am and 6pm. Rotating through these will be the best way to level up and obtain Scrips. For extra EXP, players can also fill out the Gatherer's Log. The quest item can be turned in to Qeshi-Rae.
===Delivery Lv. 73===
Item turn-in: 18x [[Animal Droppings]] HQ

Repeating the same general steps from before, players will farm Animal Droppings from [[Weed]] in [[Lakeland]]. Players won't be able to mine any new collectibles for now.
===Delivery Lv. 75===
Item turn-in: 18x [[Megafauna Leftovers]] HQ

Repeating the same general steps from before, players will farm Megafauna Leftovers from [[The Bookman's Shelves]] in [[Il Mheg]]. Players will be able to farm [[Raw Triplite]] at The Inn at Journey's Head at 12am and 12pm for two hours once they hit lv. 76. Players can also undertake the quest [[Shedding Light on the Myth]].
===Delivery Lv. 78===
Item turn-in: 18x [[Megafauna Trace]] HQ

By this point, the Levequests will most likely no longer be an efficient option, and players should instead resort to farming collectibles and materials. Players will farm Megafauna Trace from [[The Wild Fete]] in The Rak'tika Greatwood]]. Players will also be able to farm [[Underground Spring Water]] from [[The Church of the First Light]] in Lakeland]]. Once players reach lv. 80, they will be able to take on the final class quest [[The Myth Takes Form]], then [[For Every Child a Star]], completing the Miner class questline.

==Gathering Endgame==
Unlike traditional endgame content, once players have completed the questline, the only thing left to do is farm [[White Scrips]], get [[Best in Slot]] gear, and continue gathering materials for whatever the player's current needs are. Players can also take part in the [[Ishgardian Restoration]] to complete quests, receive various rewards, or gather materials to turn in to obtain the current Miner's [[Relic]] tools.

==Walkthrough==
Level 28 [[Mining]] from level 30 Mineral Deposit in [[Eastern Thanalan]], southwest of exit to South Shroud X:25.7 Y:16.4 - Note: Make sure you get a pickaxe appropriate to your level. You can either smith your own or get one in Ul'Dah in the market strip

==Steps==
*Speak with [[Wide Gulley]].

*Speak with [[Hrodger]].

*Deliver 15 chunks of [[Wyvern Obsidian]] to [[Wide Gulley]].

*Report to [[Adalberta]].

==Journal==
*Adalberta has a mind to assign you a challenging commission.

*You learn that the guild has received an order for a quantity of high-purity wyvern obsidian, an extremely rare mineral. Conscious of the difficulty you are like to encounter in procuring it, Adalberta has accepted another miner's offer of assistance, and would have the two of you work together. Seek out the miner in question─one Wide Gulley─and discuss the task at hand.

*To your dismay, Wide Gulley greets you with open hostility. He has no intention of cooperating with you, and instead proposes a contest to see who can procure superior-quality wyvern obsidian. In light of your relative inexperience, Wide Gulley offers you all the time you require, and even suggests that you consult the client, Hrodger, should you require more information on the mineral.

*Hrodger tells you that deposits of wyvern obsidian have previously been discovered around Thal's Respite. In addition, he reveals that Wide Gulley is in fact Vice Foreman Deep Canyon's son, and a miner of tremendous talent in his own right. Armed with this information, procure 15 chunks of the purest wyvern obsidian you can find, and deliver them to Wide Gulley.

*After examining the fruits of your labors, Wide Gulley grudgingly concedes that your wyvern obsidian is purer than his own. Brooking no argument, he tells you that he will deliver your haul to Hrodger, and bids you report back to the guildmaster.

*Adalberta is troubled to learn that Wide Gulley turned an already difficult task into a contest. Upon hearing that you bested him, however, her dismay swiftly gives way to astonishment. She proceeds to lavish you with praise, even confessing to a hint of envy, and encourages you to continue exceeding expectations.

You can also do {{questlink|repfeature|The Gift of the Archmagus}}, but this is far less efficient, as it requires you to run each of the three Crystal Tower alliance raids per [[File:aether_oil_icon1.png|20px]][[Aether Oil]], for 15 runs in total.

==Reconditioned Anima Weapons (iLvl 240)==
{{main|Reconditioned Anima Weapons/Quest}}
This step is a bit more involved. For {{questlink|repfeature|A Dream Fulfilled}}, you will need to collect [[File:umbrite_icon1.png|20px]][[Umbrite]] and [[File:crystal_sand_icon1.png|20px]][[Crystal Sand]]. The exact amount will vary dut to RNG, but will generally be 60x-75x of each. [[File:umbrite_icon1.png|20px]][[Umbrite]] can be purchased for {{tomestone|poetics|75}} [[Allagan Tomestones of Poetics]] each (4500-5625 total), while [[File:crystal_sand_icon1.png|20px]][[Crystal Sand]] will require you to trade with [[Ulan]] in [[Idyllshire]] for certain items. Each trade grants 2 [[File:crystal_sand_icon1.png|20px]][[Crystal Sand]]. Most of the trade options are a poor deal, and some require items that are no longer obtainable. The only recommended options are:
* 5x [[File:Blue_crafters_scrip_token_icon1.png|20px]][[Blue Crafters' Scrip Token]] ({{scrip|white crafter|125}} [[White Crafters' Scrip]] total)
* 5x [[File:Blue_gatherers_scrip_token_icon1.png|20px]][[Blue Gatherers' Scrip Token]] ({{scrip|white gatherer|125}} [[White Gatherers' Scrip]] total)
* 5x [[File:Superior_enchanted_ink_icon1.png|20px]][[Superior Enchanted Ink]] and 5x [[File:Thavnairian_mist_icon1.png|20px]][[Thavnairian Mist]] ({{tomestone|poetics|225}} [[Allagan Tomestones of Poetics]] total)

See [[Reconditioned Anima Weapons/Quest]] for more details. Once you have acquired the items, talk to Ulan to create Refined Crystal Sand and upgrade the stats on your weapon. Once the step is complete, you can turn in the quest and upgrade your weapon.

==Complete Anima Weapons (iLvl 270)==
{{main|Complete Anima Weapons/Quest}}
This is one of the more grindy steps. Pick up the quest {{questlink|repfeature|Born Again Anima}}. First you will need to complete the three dungeons {{questlink|dungeon|Sohm Al (Hard)}}, {{questlink|dungeon|The Great Gubal Library (Hard)}}, and {{questlink|dungeon|The Lost City of Amdapor (Hard)}}. These can be done in any order.

Next, you will need to farm aetheric density. This is the main grind. You can earn aetheric density by running a variety of Heavensward activities, including FATEs, dungeons, trials, and raids with your weapon equipped. The most efficient method is generally considered to be to assemble a few max-level teammates and repeatedly farm {{questlink|raid|Alexander - The Eyes of the Creator (Savage)}} (A9S) unsynced. Your progress may be viewed using the [[Enhanced Anima Glass]]. Talk to the [[Verification Node]] after completing the grind.

You will also need to acquire a [[File:newborn_soulstone_icon1.png|20px]][[Newborn Soulstone]] via {{questlink|repfeature|Some Assembly Required}}, which requires you to collect and turn in 15 [[File:pneumite_icon1.png|20px]][[Pneumite]], which can be purchased from [[Sundry Splendors]] for {{tomestone|poetics|100}} [[Allagan Tomestones of Poetics]] each ({{tomestone|poetics|1500}} total) or from your Grand Company quartermaster for {{company seal|4000}} [[Company Seal]]s each ({{company seal|60000}} total).

Once these steps are complete, turn in the quest to upgrade your weapon.
