I think the best start would be to get a list of a level 50's botany and mining logs as I'm sure everything gathered from those professions are used in some craft or another. Another way to circumvent this is to go on the market board and go through the different categories of items. (ores, leathers etc.)

There's a lot of useless fish so a way you can check those is to manually the market board against xivdb and see which ones have a recipe associated with them.

The only data mining I'm doing is the manual sort. Looking at what's available and writing it down, but I'm still low on the level tree. 25 botanist, 15 carpenter, 14 leather ,13 weaver. One of those is probably mixed up.

The app, is based in part on the gear chart I put up on the other forum. I compiled a whole list of gear for my little lumberjack, sorted it by list, then decided what the hell, let's add some mining and fishing. Then came the crafting classes.

Basically use it to keep track of your character's current class and level, and show you what gear you should prepare to upgrade next. Haven't had much time to work on it but ideas have been brewing. I'm probably going to throw in the gathering log with a map of where to gather what.

Once I'm done with the gathering classes, I'll start adding the crafting side; gear, crafting logs, etc.


These are the database tables I'm preparing.

Are you a programmer too, Kidda?

I'd like to hear any suggestions if you have any.
I'm probably separating the crafting mats later into 1 whole recipes table by itself.

Not to steal thunder from your project Sen - found this on Reddit:

(not sure if this is what you're working on or not)

Doesn't seem to be entirely accurate yet though, as I plugged in level 50 fisherman and it didn't have Halcyon or Luminary rods listed, nor the fisherman hat, so I don't know what criteria it's using.

I know how that goes. :) I make tons of spreadsheets just for my personal use but end up sharing them anyway.
