Miner 1-100 Leveling Guide (Updated for 7.2)
This guide will show you how to quickly level your Miner class in Final Fantasy XIV. We will assume you have no prior knowledge of the gathering system, although it is admittedly quite simple when leveling up is your main focus. This guide aims to be as simple as possible, what to gather at which levels and what to do to keep things progressing smoothly.
Useful Resources:
Main Class Level 100
- It is expected that your main class is Level 100 with the Dawntrail Main Scenario completed for access to all maps
1-3 Million Gil
- You will need some starting gil to purchase gear, tools, materia, food and materials to prepare for the journey from 1-100
- Check out our Gil Service if you need funds for the journey
- It's strongly advised to use universalis.app to check the Market Board prices for all Worlds on your Data Center, it will save you a lot of gil in the long run
Access to Survival Manuals
- You will need access to
Survival Manuals to provide a +150% boost to EXP - There are various types of Survival Manuals scale their EXP boost depending on your level
- The easiest way to obtain Survival Manuals is by Grand Company Seals
Cordials
Cordials will be needed throughout the leveling process to replenish GP- GP can be used to earn bonus EXP so Cordials are essential to leveling as fast as possible
- NQ or HQ
Cordials can be used
Carrot Nibbles / Mushroom Saute (HQ)
Carrot Nibbles / 
Mushroom Saute will be our foods of choice as it can be found cheaply on the Market Board and provides great stats in addition to the 3% EXP boost- The Gathering stat bonus will have an effect even at lower levels and increases your chances of successfully gathering items that are slightly above your level
EXP Boosts & Bonuses
Aside from the Rest EXP Bonus and the +3% from consuming Food items; there are a number of stackable buffs, gear and methods that can be used to increase EXP yields and level up even faster:
Road to 80 (Preferred Worlds) (+100%)
Those who are on Preferred Worlds are the most privileged group with the 
Road to 80 buff, receiving a +100% bonus to ALL EXP gained until Level 80. This means the effort required to reach Level 80 is essentially halved.
Survival Manuals (+150%)
Survival Manuals grant +150% EXP and in most cases, hugely cut down the amount of time required to level your gatherers. They will expire after granting you a specified allowance of EXP. Bonus EXP is halved once your surpass the level cap for each Survival Manual. This buff does not affect hand-ins or 
Levequest EXP rewards.
Company-issue Survival Manual (Up to Lv. 40)
Company-issue Survival Manual II (Up to Lv. 50)- Commercial Survival Manual (Up to Lv. 70)
Revised Survival Manual (Up to Lv. 80)
Commercial Survival Manuals are rewarded for completing level 50 and 60 Class Quests for gatherer classes. Revised Manuals are rewarded for completing Crystarium Deliveries, and can also be bought with 
White Gatherers' Scrips.
Earth and Water II (Free Company Buff) (+10%)
For those who are part of a Free Company willing to activate the 
Earth and Water II buff, you'll receive a small boost of +10% EXP while gathering. This buff does not affect hand-ins or Levequest EXP rewards.
Bonus EXP Gear
Friendship Circlet +20% EXP (up to level 25)
Ala Mhigan Earrings +30% EXP (up to level 50)
Those fortunate enough to have access to bonus EXP gear can wear this gear until their level caps for a nice boost. This bonus does not affect hand-ins or Levequest EXP rewards.
Gathering Log, Levequests or Diadem?
As of patch 6.0, there are various methods of leveling up your gatherer classes which can lead to confusion for newer players. We'll just come out and say it now; they are all pretty much the same in terms of speed, although they do have specific advantages and disadvantages. Levequests and Diadem can be used exclusively to level your characters all the way up to 100 as long as the prerequisites are met.
This guide will mainly focus on using the Gathering Log for optimizing EXP rate, while suggesting appropriate times that Levequests or Diadem can be used to keep things moving at a nice pace. You may decide to focus on only one method, or employ a combination of all. Collectables will also be employed in the latter half of the guide as it becomes by far the easiest way to level up at later levels.
We'll outline each method, and how you can utilise their advantages to make your leveling experience as smooth as possible.
Gathering Log (Overworld)
This is the regular, vanilla way of leveling up your gathering classes. Gather items in your gathering log from various maps around Eorzea. You'll need to upgrade gear as you gatherer higher level items while leveling up. Simple!
- No pre-requisite quests or level requirements, can equip your tools and get started right away
- Enjoy the scenery in the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV
- Most Class Quests require items from your Gathering Log so you can hit two birds with one stone
- Requires appropriate gear to fully take advantage of the benefits, can become expensive at later levels
- Will need to regularly upgrade gear between 1-50 to keep up with the increasing stat requirements of items in your Gathering Log
- You will need to have unlocked flying in all Heavensward, Stormblood, Shadowbringers, Endwalker and Dawntrail maps
Levequests
Levequests or Leves, are repeatable quests that involve taking to an NPC, going to a designated location and then activating the quest to complete the specified task. These award large amounts of EXP when completed. Levequests are repeatable but come with an allowance, you will be given three Leves every 12 hours (12 per day) with a maximum cap of 100. Your Levequest allowance can be checked anytime in your Quest Journal. Levequests above level 50 are far more streamlined than previous levels so it becomes an even better option at higher levels. - Quests are not challenging, can be completed within minutes with large EXP rewards
- Levequests are repeatable but rarely have to be repeated more than twice to reach the next level
- Slightly lower gear requirements than Overworld gathering, useful as a quick way to gain a level or two to reach the next tier of gear
- Despite the EXP rewards, it can be time consuming to return to the Levemete NPC every time you accept and complete Levequests
- Requires a a short side quest with DoW / DoM Class to unlock Levequests on maps below level 50
- Requires Flying to reach quest locations easily
Diadem aka Ishgardian Restoration
Gatherer leveling takes place in the Diadem, a huge map where everybody flies around showing off their mounts. All gathering takes place in this map regardless of your level, which makes things extremely simple. The only requirement to unlock the side quest is a single Gatherer or 
Crafter class at level 20, but items can be gathered at as low as level 10 after this. - Can gather at all regular locations from any level, excellent EXP yields at all levels up to 80.
- Very low gear requirements, gear only needs to be upgraded at level 10 and level 60
- All leveling takes place on a single map that does not require flying to be unlocked, everyone can fly in the Diadem
- Boring
- Sometimes more time spent flying than gathering in the large map, which slows things down greatly
- Takes place within a Duty Finder style instance

Congratulations on reaching level 70. Once again, our goal to upgrade our Gearset at Level 71. The level 70 tier is less difficult than some earlier levels due to Crystarium Deliveries, non-repeatable quests that grant large EXP rewards while also offering Revised Survival Manuals and Gatherers' Scrips. These quests are shared between Miner and 
Botanist, and can only be completed on one of these classes at each level (70, 73, 75, 78). This means that if you have completed any of these quests on Botanist, you will not be able to complete that quest again on Miner.
White Gatherers' Scrips awarded by Crystarium Deliveries should be used to purchase Revised Survival Manuals from the Scrip Exchange, requires Collectables Scrip Exchange to be unlocked.
Before continuing, we'll be upgrading to the Level 71 Gearset, you must purchase the armour (HQ) from the market board and also acquire 13 
Gatherer's Guerdon VI Materia (G +15). For the tools, we recommend purchasing a 
Deepgold Pickaxe (HQ) & 
Deepgold Sledgehammer (HQ). You can meld one G +15 Materia to each.
- Use Mountaineer's Gift II
- Use Cordials
- Use HQ Carrot Nibbles / Mushroom Saute
- Use White Gatherers' Scrips from Crystarium Deliveries to buy Revised Survival Manuals
Crystarium Levequests are always available if you ever lose momentum or want to jump a few levels.

Gather Animal Trace until level 73.
Hand in 18 Animal Trace for the level 70 Crystarium Delivery Quest.

Studium Deliveries will now be available in Old Sharlayan (Hinageshi – X:4.0 Y:9.0) and provides great EXP, however these quests are shared between Miner and Botanist, and are not repeatable.
