FFXIV – Food Guide with Stats for Crafting Classes

Welcome, my crafting buddies, to a full list of food you can chow down on in-game to help with your crafting activities! Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn‘s crafting system is about as in-depth as it gets, and sometimes you just need that extra boost to help attain those high quality wares that sell so well on the market place.

Crafting jobs use three primary stats to synthesize and refine: control, craftsmanship, and CP. The foods listed below entail these stats. If you are looking for something in particular, be sure to ‘Ctrl+F’ to search!

If you are looking for some foods to help you gather more efficiently to take on your crafting tasks, check out our list of gathering-oriented foods to boost your gathering abilities. Happy crafting!
