Carpenter
Introduction
“The foremost workers of wood, carpenters possess expert knowledge of the hardness, pliability, weight, and value of all types of timber. Their creed is to bring these natural traits to bear in the form of various wares, from the implements of war to the tools of various trades.
The greatest advancements in the craft have been made in the Twelveswood, home to the highest quality timber in Eorzea. Gridanian carpentry produces everything from the masks used in their religious ceremonies to the enormous waterwheels erected throughout their city.— [1]
Carpenters are Disciples of the Hand that produce wooden materials, furniture and equipment used by many classes in the game. For example, they can create wooden shields and masks for casters, weapons and armor for Disciples of War, fishing poles for Fishers, grinding wheels for Goldsmiths, and much more.
