So I managed to blitz through the main story because I wanted to check out some Grand Company stuff. It appears that for supply/provision that there are two different NPCs that will take items: the one inside the GC HQ and the NPC stationed at a Hamlet to supply leves. (in my case, at Moraby Drydocks for Maelstrom)
I found that both NPCs had some variance in the items they offer to turn-in, however, I found once I turned in both of the gathering items to one of them, the other wouldn't take gathering items anymore, so the lists are shared between the two. At least it gives some variety if you don't like what one has, you can do some from the other.
Also, you gain xp towards the class that would provide the item and not what you turn in as. So if you turn in an item you'd get from mining, your miner automatically gets the xp.
I'm going to keep track of the items requested while this beta phase remains active to see how random it is. |

I may be mistaken on the different items. I don't know how I triggered a different set of items from the leve guy instead of the GC HQ NPC, but once I turned in something at HQ the other set of items went away. I'm going to check this again tomorrow to see if it was a glitch or something.
Anyway, I turned in an HQ crafted item and got a 50% bonus on top of the regular reward, so that might be worth doing if you have the materials handy. |

You can turn in Supply/Provisioning stuff at your GC HQ, as well as any NPC who would issue you GC leves out in the field.
I'm relatively sure they give the same list. |

I'm relatively sure they give the same list. Well, I logged in this morning at Moraby Drydocks and the supply/provision list didn't change. All that was there was the items I still hadn't turned in from the previous day. Teleported to Limsa and it was the same thing there. The Expert Delivery list DID change though, so I don't know if this is a bug or not. The list is supposed to refresh every 24 hours. |

Really confused about what's happening with the supply/provisioning. I was running around for what was about 15-20 minutes getting ingredients for the culinarian turn-in, when the items swapped on me again. The NPC says the mission ends at 5:00 am PDT, which is about 15 hours away from now...so why did my items change? And why DIDN'T the items change when they were supposed to at 5:00 AM PDT this morning? Sounds like something with their timers may be messed up... |

I did add some stuff to my armory chest at some point so that probably accounts for that. |
