A day late, but since I always have Tuesday off, I include that in my "Weekend", so...
Got CRP to 30, that was easy.
Got LTW to 30, that wasn't all that hard either.
Got GSM to 30, that was way easier than I thought it'd be.
I ran into problems with Alchemist. I got it to barely 29 and now I'm down to 38 leves left. I think I'm gonna call it a day and let the leves build back up some and use the GC Craft Dailies to 'cheat', though I can only imagine what kind of crap they're going to tell me to make. Bleh.
The problem with Alchemist, is that most of the leves suck. I can't find any leves outside of Ul'dah for the Lv25 range (Ala Mihgo strangely has no craft leves at all), and the ones in Ul'dah are frankly sucky; they are all 4-5 step crafts for 1 turnin, some of them requiring 3-5 items (that you make 1 of per synth).
The only one I could find that wasn't, was the Potions of Mind, but trying to gain 25-30 on a Lv15 leve takes a LOT of leve allowances. I think I'll just let ALC sit there and get GC stuff, or if the GC quests suck in a similar fashion, I might grind it out on some of those easier recipes that you can harvest (Natron, Formula Gamma, etc).
I've got BSM and ARM on 27-28, those should be somewhat easy to get up, though I worry about how hard it will be to get any quantities of Bomb Ash for Steel, I know that part might end up sucking (which is the same reason why WVR is 28; Velveteen is a pain in the *** to work with due to the sporadic drop rates of dire webs, but thankfully I can do Linen now, once I get my BTN up to harvest Flax).
That just leaves CUL on 24, hopefully there's something reasonable in there somewhere to do.
So... I got a good part of the way there.

I want to, at some point, get all my crafts on 30. I've 3 of them that are 27-28, and the rest are all 25 except for CRP and CUL. By the end of tomorrow (Monday), I should have ~86 leves so hopefully I can get that done.

When I did Alchemy you could make Hi Potions in Quarrymill for the level 20 or 25 leve for triple turn ins. The materials are all gathered in East Shrould iirc as well. I did that leve up until level 40 or so when I swapped to lanolin because I had a metric-butt-ton of karakul skins left over from farming fleece. See if that's still an option :)
