Has anyone broken the Expert tier yet on non-Fishing? I'm worried that if I turn mine in, the GP items will suddenly become damn near impossible to do. It's bad enough as it is for me on Veteran, some of the recipes are massive losses that I just skip, I don't want them to all become that way.

Almost positive theyre not introduced yet. When I broke fishing cap, we were already on veteran gp item, so the next day should have been expert, however it went to amateur.

Interesting ... I was thinking fishing might be an exception since they didn't add a dozen new fish. Thanks!

I broke cap on both Primal and Ennovy. There is no Expert GP yet; still turning items in off the Veteran pattern.

Nice, that works for me. Now all I need are 1500 Thokcha ore and I'll be all set! >.<

I don't know about the other crafts, but right now it looks like about a 0% chance of ever making it to 110 on smithing. Looks like it's about as easy to get as the heavy metal plates, and hell, the plates look to be about 10x more common.

Best case, at ~200k per ingot, not to mention other mats, I'd have to spend 80M gil to get from 100 to 110. Yeah, not gonna happen. I sure hope there are some more reasonable recipes that haven't been found yet, or some awesome new source of ore (I know goldsmith has the same issue with palladium)
