The video provides a comprehensive guide on efficiently leveling up the gatherer classes—the Botanist, Miner, and Fisher—to level 90 in the game without excessive expenditure on gear. It suggests achieving level 60 on a battle job and completing the "Litany of Peace" MSQ quest, purchasing survival manuals, and consuming food items that boost XP. The Diadem in the Firmament (Ishgard) is highlighted as a prime leveling zone, unlocked once level 10 on any gatherer and level 60 overall is attained. Early levels (1-50) can be achieved through leave quests, with more advanced leveling (40-80) involving resource gathering in the Diadem, custom deliveries, and daily Grand Company turn-ins.
For levels 53-80, upgrading gear becomes necessary, with scripts earned from custom deliveries and collectibles used for purchases, especially at levels 60, 70, and 80. Specific tasks like the "Inscrutable Tastes" quest unlock collectibles that significantly boost XP and gatherer scripts. Fishing is noted for its unique ease, involving ocean fishing trips for quick leveling and rewards like the "Master of the Sea" title. Key strategies encompass a mix of leave quests, Grand Company turn-ins, custom deliveries, and collectibles, emphasizing minimal gear investment by using vendor and script-purchased items. For further optimization, detailed understanding of gatherer abilities is recommended.

In this part of the video, the creator explains the most efficient way to level up Botanist, Miner, and Fisher to level 90 in the game without spending too much gil on gear. They stress the importance of reaching level 60 on a battle job and finishing the MSQ quest “Litany of Peace,” as well as attaining the rank of Second Lieutenant in the grand company. They recommend buying and using survival manuals from the grand company to boost XP and eating any food that grants a 3% XP boost.
The video describes using the Diadem, accessed through the Firmament in Ishgard, as a primary leveling zone. To unlock this method, players need to be level 10 or higher on any gatherer and level 60 overall. Early leveling for Botanist and Miner can be achieved through leave quests, which do not require any gear until level 50.
The creator advises unlocking the jobs in the capital cities and completing the necessary quests in Ishgard to access the Firmament. Once there, players should continuously gather resources and monitor their survival manual buff to maximize XP gain.

In this part of the video, the focus is on leveling up in a game after reaching level 40. Key actions include using “Survivor Manual 2” for gathering nodes, utilizing compressed ether for special abilities, and gathering resources in the diadem for additional items. Once gathering is complete, players should have their resources approved by the resource inspector to assign value to them. Early resources should be sold on the market for inventory management unless needed for crafting. Players earn skybuilder scripts for special items by approving resources. To advance from levels 40 to 80, the diadem should be used to level miners and botanists, along with other methods to expedite the process. From level 53, upgrading gear is necessary with purchases from specific vendors in Ishgard. Completing job quests up to level 50 is recommended for free tools, and daily Grand Company turn-ins provide additional XP. Starting at level 60, custom deliveries unlock more opportunities for significant XP and gatherer scripts through the collection and delivery of specific items.

In this part of the video, the process of unlocking collectibles and completing the level 56 quest “Inscrutable Tastes” in Ishgard is discussed. Once unlocked, these custom deliveries can be used to earn scripts for purchasing gear at levels 60, 70, and 80. The alternative to custom deliveries is buying vendor gear, which is not recommended.
Instructions are provided on how to track needed items either through the timers, NPCs, or gathering log, indicating that collectibles have a specific icon. The video explains the use of abilities to increase an item’s collectibility, aiming to gather as many collectibles as integrity allows. Higher collectibility boosts the XP and scripts earned, with scripts used to purchase gear via script exchanges, particularly in Idle Shire.
The importance of upgrading gear pieces with each week’s deliveries is emphasized to maintain high collectibility. Additionally, the collectible appraiser can be used for gathering extra collectibles that are not time-gated. The methods outlined (custom deliveries, daily GC turn-ins, and collectibles) aim to level up miners and botanists to level 80. For levels above 80, the use of collectibles appraiser in Ratsadhan and studium deliveries for high XP gains is suggested, clarifying that these are straightforward quests without time limits.

In this part of the video, the speaker provides detailed instructions on leveling up gatherers, with a particular focus on fishing in the game. They explain that once you reach a certain point, quests will function like regular quest lines, requiring specific levels to accept them. Completing these quests awards scripts and experience points (XP), allowing players to reach level 90 quickly.
For fishing, they highlight its ease and minimal preparation. Once players unlock the fisher role and complete the first quest, they can participate in ocean fishing trips. Gear doesn’t impact the initial stages, and players fish alongside others for about 30 minutes, earning points for each catch. Achieving 10,000 points grants a mount, and 20,000 points bestows the title “Master of the Sea.” They recommend bringing survivor manuals and obtaining baits from a vendor at Limsa Ferry Docks.
The video also includes a concise summary of the leveling strategy:
– Leaf quests from level 1 to 10.
– Leves from 10 to 80.
– Grand Company (GC) turn-ins from level 1 to 90.
– Custom deliveries from level 60 to 90.
– Collectibles mainly from level 80 to 90, optionally from 60 to 80.
– Fishers should use ocean fishing to reach level 90.
Gearing advice includes using vendor gear up to level 53, with white scripts for gear upgrades as needed.
