Shortcuts: Carpenter (Class)

"The Oak Atrium straddles Gridania's Black Tea Brook, and is easily distinguished by the water wheel at its front, which harnesses the current of the brook turn to generate power for the Atrium's many devices. The water wheel itself is unique among those in Gridania, as it exhibits an unorthodox "enclosed" construction, with the blades within obscured from view by the outlying planks. Though originally no more than a mere sawmill operated by a handful of woodworkers, the building is now home to the Carpenters' Guild."
"Any sprat what picks up a saw is a carpenter as far as I'm concerned. Maybe not the most skilled there is, but a carpenter nonetheless. If it's wooden, it falls within our realm of expertise. We cut and bore, joint and fit, smooth and sand. And weapons are just the tip of the iceberg. We've secondary tools, besides. Using different tools to craft the same patterns will oft yield you different results." - Frances

Osgar also offers use of the Guild's Facilities to Carpenters who are in need of support in their synthesis. Common, Guild, and Master's Woodyard support is available for a small fee, which increases as your Carpenter Level increases. Currently, some recipes have a "recommended" level of support, which will have a negative impact on your synthesis if you choose not to obtain the proper level of support. On a side note, you can obtain Common Woodyard support from Repair NPCs, and various Camps across Eorzea.
"Through our labors, the lands' lumber touches the lives of all. Whether it be the pillars and crossbeams of homes, the shafts of spears and hammers, or the toys of younglings, there is precious little in which we do not play a part. Would you care to add your name to our guild's roll, friend? There is always work to be had, and you won't go unrewarded." ~ A'naidjaa
