Final Fantasy XIV has eight crafting, Duty of Hand, classes for the players to choose from. Unlike in some games, you can actually level all eight of these classes, and it would be wise to do so. With patch 5.3 right around the corner, and new items coming out, many people are pushing to get their crafters ready. So, which classes are considered the best, and why?
3. Leatherworker
The Leather Worker class has tanned its spot at number three on my top three list. This class allows you to make some of the gear you wear for varying classes. A small bit of in-game lore for this guild is that the guild leader of the leather workers, Geva, is secretly the mastermind behind the famous brand Fen-Yll. This fact actually comes into play during the class quests in the base game.
Some Details About The Class:
- Unlocked in Gridania - Old Gridania
- Uses animal skins and hides mostly
- A lot of items from this class come in handy when making things for Weaver.
What’s Awesome About This Class:

2. Weaver
The Weaver class has stitched its way up to second on my top three list! This class allows you to make a wide variety of clothes and items in the game. The guild where you learn this class is overseen by a kind-hearted man named Redolent Rose. Some lore behind this class, found during the class quests, is that Redolent Rose would instead make high-quality items for the everyday man at a reasonable price then make average items that sell well. You learn this while helping a young man find courage through his clothes to confess to the woman he loves.

- Makes a ton of Gil by crafting clothes for glamours.
- Crafts housing items, armor, pants, accessories, and glamours.

1. Culinarian
Culinarian takes the cake as number one on my top three list! This class is by far the most important, no matter where we are during patches and updates. You will always need food in this game, and that’s what this class is all about. The lore found during the class quests here is that the guild leader, Lyngsath Hyllbornsyn, originally learned his craft aboard a merchant ship that traveled the five seas.
Some Details About This Class:
