FFXIV A Realm Reborn

So I'm really new to the game and all I've been doing so far is questing to level up. Since my bag is starting to fill up with quest rewards and old gear, I thought I'd ask what I should do to get rid of it all. Is it best to just sell it all to a vendor? Or can I do something like salvaging old gear with blacksmithing or something like that?

I want to start doing some blacksmithing, where is best place to start? I'm a lvl 16 Lancer. I just gotta find a blacksmithing guild and go from there?

Edit: Read a bit on Materia, old gear can be made into Materia.

Also found out I should be Leatherworker?

I actually heard from my level 50 friends that blacksmithing is pretty useless.

Most are getting Gathering skills (Botanist/Miner examples) because mats are really expensive at this time and the are making lots of money just farming up their gathering skills and selling mats for items.

If you plan on going Lancer full out, go leatherworker that's where your armor for that class will come from. If you can materia the armor do it, it's better than selling for 1gil per.

Okay thanks for input. I've been hording all my items so far cause I don't know what to do with them. Once I'm 19 I believe I can do quests to start making Materia.
