[[Collectables]] is a feature for crafting and gathering classes first introduced in [[Heavensward]] ([[Patch 3.0|3.0]]).
Collectables is a feature for [[crafting]] and [[gathering]] [[classes]] introduced in [[Heavensward]] (3.0).  


A collectable is essentially a unique rarity, separate from {{HQ}} [[High Quality]], that is indicated with its own icon: {{Collectable}} on [[items]] and [[File:Collectable recipe icon.png|link=]] in the {{STFI|Crafting Log|link=Crafting Log|icon=Crafting log icon2.png|size=small}} [[Crafting Log]]. The higher an item's collectability number, the more {{exp}} [[Experience]], {{scrip|purple crafter}}{{scrip|purple gatherer}} [[Purple Scrip]], and {{scrip|orange crafter}}{{scrip|orange gatherer}} [[Orange Scrip]] will be rewarded. Collectables cannot be stacked or sold either to regular merchants or on the [[Market Board]], nor can they be consumed or used as material for synthesis. As with {{HQ}} [[High Quality]], you may downgrade a collectable to a normal item that can then be vendored or discarded.
These general-purpose collectable items can be turned in at any [[Collectable Appraiser]], who are available at:
* [[Limsa Lominsa]] (Aetheryte: Hawkers' Alley)
* [[Gridania]] (Aetheryte: Leatherworkers' Guild)
* [[Ul'dah]] (Aetheryte: Sapphire Avenue Exchange)
* [[Mor Dhona]] (X:22.4, Y:6.7)
* [[Idyllshire]] (X:5.7, Y:7.0)
* [[Rhalgr's Reach]] (X:9.8, Y:12.5)
* [[Eulmore]] (X:11.6, Y:10.8)
* [[Radz-at-Han]] (X:11.7, Y:9.8)
* [[Solution Nine]] (X:9.1, Y:13.5)
There are also specific collectibles for the [[Ishgardian Restoration]], [[Custom Deliveries]], and [[Aetherial Reduction]].

[[File:Patch 6.1 Collectable Crafting.png|right]]
Collectables can be found in a dedicated tab in the Crafting Log under Special Recipes (the bag with a star icon under Recipe Level). The drop-down menu for crafting Collectables is near the bottom, separated into four categories: levels 50-60, levels 61-70, levels 71-80, and levels 81-90. The collectability of an item is determined by the [[Control]] attribute and Touch actions, exactly to how {{HQ}} [[High Quality]] items are crafted. In fact, {{HQ}} [[High Quality]] and [[File:Collectable recipe icon.png|link=]] collectable are mutually exclusive after the [[patch 5.3]] changes; items can only be crafted as one or the other. With [[patch 6.1]], the collectability thresholds are now visible on the crafting screen (see right).<br>
All general-purpose collectables are now prefixed ''Rarefied'', and are crafted with similar ingredients as the non-Rarefied version.

Collectables can be gathered at various nodes starting at level 50, and turned in at the [[Collectable Appraiser]] in various cities for {{scrip|Purple Gatherer}} [[Purple Gatherers' Scrip]]s (for level 50-99 collectables) or {{scrip|Orange Gatherer}} [[Orange Gatherers' Scrip]]s (for level 100 collectables) and {{exp}} [[experience]]. [[Unspoiled Nodes|Unspoiled items]] earn much more; it is recommended to focus on unspoiled items as their nodes have a minimum of six gathering attempts, allowing you to gather more items after reaching the desired collectability. They are usually the optimal way to earn experience points for little effort.

To gather a collectable, interact with the node, reach the item, and click on the desired collectable. You can identify which items in the node are collectables by seeing the {{Collectable}} icon next to the item name. When selecting a collectable, a new window will appear with actions specific to collectables (see right). You can increase the item's collectability using actions, then "Collect" the item once the desired collectability is reached. The Collect action succeeds at your gathering rate (as shown by the percentage at the very top). The appraisal actions are based on [[perception]].

Gathered collectibles usually have a separate non-Rarefied version (as of [[Patch 5.4]]). These cannot be converted between the types, and the ''Rarefied'' items cannot be used as ingredients in recipes in place of the non-Rarefied ones. The different versions will never be found together on the same node. Previously, you could gather the items that ''only'' had use as a collectable in a non-collectable form, which is why this change was made.

{{FSH}} [[Fisher]] still works the old way, which is different. To catch collectable fish, you simply enable {{action icon|Collect (fisher)}} (previously known as the '''Collector's Glove''') and fish as normal. Any fish capable of being a collectable that you catch with [[Collect (fisher)|Collect]] active will have a random amount of collectability influenced by your total amount of [[perception]]. The abilities {{action icon|Patience}} and {{action icon|Patience II}} appear to boost collectability as well.<br>
''Note: It is possible to catch collectable fish in a non-collectable form if you forget to enable {{action icon|Collect (fisher)}}. Non-collectable versions of those fish have no use whatsoever.''


Collectables can be gathered at various nodes starting at level 50, and turned in at the Collectable Appraiser at various cities for [[Scrip|Yellow Gatherers' Scrips]] (for level 56-66 collectables) or [[Scrip|White Gatherers' Scrips]] (for level 78 and 80 collectables) and experience. Folklore and Unspoiled items earn much more; it is recommended to focus on unspoiled items as their nodes have a minimum of six gathering attempts, allowing you to gather more items after reaching the desired collectability. They are usually the optimal way to earn experience points for little effort.
<big>For a full list of general-purpose gathered collectables with thresholds and scrips, see: [[Collectables/Gathered]].</big>
{{see also|Prime Collectables}}


The specific items that can be gathered as collectable items depends on which items [[Rowena]] is looking for. By checking the in-game timers menu (Ctrl+U), it is possible to see exactly which items Rowena is accepting at any given time, and the minimum Collectability the item needs to have in order for her to accept it.
==Achievements==
''Main article: [[Collectables Achievements]]''


To gather a collectable, interact with the node, reach the item, and turn on [[Collector's Glove]], and click on the desired item. Then, use Appraisal actions, as well as actions modifying them, to increase the Collectability of the item. Each Appraisal action takes up a gathering attempt and increases wear by 10 (though modifying actions do not take up any attempt, and may restore the attempt or wear). When wear exceeds 30, the item's gathering rate will be forcibly lowered to 30%; this means that you should normally expect to use three Appraisal actions.
Collectables are associated with several [[achievements]]:
{| {{STDT| mech1 sortable align-left}}
{{achievement table header}}
{{achievement table row|I Made That (Worth Collecting) I}}
{{achievement table row|I Made That (Worth Collecting) II}}
{{achievement table row|I Made That (Worth Collecting) III}}
{{achievement table row|I Made That (Worth Collecting) IV}}
{{achievement table row|I Made That (Worth Collecting) V}}
{{achievement table row|I Made That (Worth Collecting) VI}}
{{achievement table row|I Collected That I}}

{{achievement table row|I Collected That VI}}
{{achievement table row|I Traded That I}}
{{achievement table row|I Traded That II}}
{{achievement table row|I Traded That III}}
|}


Note that the Appraisal actions have somewhat misleading descriptions. The maximum Collectability you can gain in one Methodical Appraisal is 115, and similarly the other actions are multiples of 115. Increasing your perception will help you reach the maximum of 115, but it cannot exceed 115. The perception required depends on the level of the item. Generally, if you cannot reach the maximum, it will be harder to acquire scrips from the Collectable.  
{{item icon|I Collected That I}} and {{item icon|I Made That (Worth Collecting) I}} are two of the four requirements for [[file:trade mentor status icon1.png|25px|link=Trade Mentor]]'''[[Trade Mentor]]''' status.


To earn any scrips, you would need 450 Collectability for Red items and 470 Collectability for Yellow items. When the Collectability reaches the desired amount, click the Collect action. The Collect action succeeds at your gathering rate. Note that you do not strictly have to reach the exact level of Collectability - the Collectable will often have slightly more Collectability than you expect, depending on your HQ chance. Hitting an HQ while collecting the item gives a maximum of 10% extra Collectability.

Collectables is a feature for crafting and gathering classes first introduced in Heavensward (3.0).

A collectable is essentially a unique rarity, separate from HQ icon.png High Quality, that is indicated with its own icon: Collectable on items and Collectable recipe icon.png in the Crafting log icon2.png  Crafting Log. The higher an item's collectability number, the more Experience Experience, Purple Crafters' ScripPurple Gatherers' Scrip Purple Scrip, and Orange Crafters' ScripOrange Gatherers' Scrip Orange Scrip will be rewarded. Collectables cannot be stacked or sold either to regular merchants or on the Market Board, nor can they be consumed or used as material for synthesis. As with HQ icon.png High Quality, you may downgrade a collectable to a normal item that can then be vendored or discarded.

These general-purpose collectable items can be turned in at any Collectable Appraiser, who are available at:

There are also specific collectibles for the Ishgardian Restoration, Custom Deliveries, and Aetherial Reduction.

Unlock

Players can unlock Collectables as a system by completing the level 50 quest Feature QuestInscrutable Tastes. Players start the quest by talking to Morgayne in Foundation (X:10.1 Y:10.4). It requires the prior completion of the level 50 Heavensward MSQ Main Scenario QuestThe Better Half.

Additionally, further levels of the Scrip Exchange are unlocked in each expansion. Beginning with Stormblood's Feature QuestReach Long and Prosper, these quests are single conversations without Journal entries. Once an expansion's inventory is unlocked, it becomes available at all Scrip Exchange NPCs:

Crafting

Patch 6.1 Collectable Crafting.png

Collectables can be found in a dedicated tab in the Crafting Log under Special Recipes (the bag with a star icon under Recipe Level). The drop-down menu for crafting Collectables is near the bottom, separated into four categories: levels 50-60, levels 61-70, levels 71-80, and levels 81-90. The collectability of an item is determined by the Control attribute and Touch actions, exactly to how HQ icon.png High Quality items are crafted. In fact, HQ icon.png High Quality and Collectable recipe icon.png collectable are mutually exclusive after the patch 5.3 changes; items can only be crafted as one or the other. With patch 6.1, the collectability thresholds are now visible on the crafting screen (see right).
All general-purpose collectables are now prefixed Rarefied, and are crafted with similar ingredients as the non-Rarefied version.

For a full list of general-purpose crafted collectables with thresholds and scrips, see: Collectables/Crafted.

Collectables can be gathered at various nodes starting at level 50, and turned in at the Collectable Appraiser in various cities for Purple Gatherers' Scrip Purple Gatherers' Scrips (for level 50-99 collectables) or Orange Gatherers' Scrip Orange Gatherers' Scrips (for level 100 collectables) and Experience experience. Unspoiled items earn much more; it is recommended to focus on unspoiled items as their nodes have a minimum of six gathering attempts, allowing you to gather more items after reaching the desired collectability. They are usually the optimal way to earn experience points for little effort.

To gather a collectable, interact with the node, reach the item, and click on the desired collectable. You can identify which items in the node are collectables by seeing the Collectable icon next to the item name. When selecting a collectable, a new window will appear with actions specific to collectables (see right). You can increase the item's collectability using actions, then "Collect" the item once the desired collectability is reached. The Collect action succeeds at your gathering rate (as shown by the percentage at the very top). The appraisal actions are based on perception.

Gathered collectibles usually have a separate non-Rarefied version (as of Patch 5.4). These cannot be converted between the types, and the Rarefied items cannot be used as ingredients in recipes in place of the non-Rarefied ones. The different versions will never be found together on the same node. Previously, you could gather the items that only had use as a collectable in a non-collectable form, which is why this change was made.

Fisher frame icon.png Fisher still works the old way, which is different. To catch collectable fish, you simply enable Collect fisher icon1.png  Collect (previously known as the Collector's Glove) and fish as normal. Any fish capable of being a collectable that you catch with Collect active will have a random amount of collectability influenced by your total amount of perception. The abilities Patience.png  Patience and Patience II.png  Patience II appear to boost collectability as well.
Note: It is possible to catch collectable fish in a non-collectable form if you forget to enable Collect fisher icon1.png  Collect. Non-collectable versions of those fish have no use whatsoever.

For a full list of general-purpose gathered collectables with thresholds and scrips, see: Collectables/Gathered.
