Goldsmith (GSM) Crafting Abilities and Materia


FFXIV - Disciples of Hand - Goldsmith
Goldsmithing is the practice of working precious metals and stones into a multitude of accessories that appeal to the Eorzean aesthetic. It also makes use of golds and silvers, rubies and sapphires, and a myriad of other materials to decorate weapons, armor, and tools.

Due to the extreme value of the source materials being worked with, the guild has adopted a philosophy of "high risk, high return." This has given them a reputation for being laborious scrutinizers of market trends, always paying heed to the fluctuating economy. The primary tool of the goldsmith is the chaser hammer.

Below is a list of abilities for the Goldsmith class up to level 50. All of the Goldsmith's abilities use 0 MP or TP and have 0 cast time.

Abilities


While Goldsmiths can equip up to 10 abilities to their bar, only 5 will appear during the crafting process and these will be chosen at random when the process starts. It may work out better for you to only equip the best 5 for Goldsmith crafting.

As none of the DoH abilities are exclusive to any specific class it is worth levelling up other DoH classes so that you can get better abilities.
