Woodworking is a Craft which works with a wide variety of lumber found around Vana'diel to craft a variety of weapons and ammunition. Also used to create many pieces of furniture for your moghouse. The Carpenters' Guild headquarters is located in the Kingdom of San d'Oria, though guild representatives can be found elsewhere. There you can obtain Synthesis Image Support to assist your crafting, as well as buy and sell guild related items. Guild members beyond the rank of Novice can earn Guild Points, used to purchase items exclusive to crafters.
The Carpenters' Guild is open 6:00 - 21:00 and is closed on Firesday.
By speaking to Cheupirudaux, the Guild Master, you can sign up to the guild and get a free crystal.
Synthesis Image Support NPCs[]
Synthesis image support temporarily raises your skill by 1 point. Advanced support raises your skill by 3 points, and requires a small fee based on your crafting rank. Synthesis Image Support can be obtained from the following Guild representatives:
Every ten skill levels, you are required to prove to the guild that you "have what it takes" by crafting (or buying) a carpentry item of the guild's choosing. This item can be turned in once you have reached an "8" in skill (8, 28, 48, etc.), or higher skill (up to the cap). Once you have the requisite skill, speak with the Guild Master, Cheupirudaux.
Once you have attained the rank of Novice, you may begin to earn Guild Points with the Carpenters' Guild. Note that you may only accumulate Guild Points for one guild at a time. The "Item of the Day" that the guild will accept changes every day at Japanese Midnight, and varies by crafting rank. Speak with Andreas at (F-3) in Northern San d'Oria to find out what the item is, determine the limit to how many points can be earned, turn in items for points and to spend points on Guild Point Items.
