It's hard if you lack some of the skills you need for it (Focus & Vitality). For example, I lack Focus (it's at 10 because I never needed it in the other Lifes) and now I can barely just make a good quality item as a Blacksmith. Also, you need a good hammer. And to make a good hammer you need to be a good Blacksmith. It's a bit of a pain.
Edit: Sorry, I misread. Are you turning them in as a woodcutter?
I'm perfectly fine with that one. The one I'm confused was the "Palm it off" where you need to cut down a great palm tree and cash it in the bounty. Already done that twice but it's still in progress. Will try to look for it the 3rd time and hopefully I will get this quest.
edit: Does it need to be as woodcutter? Never had any problem in the past turning those quest with the other class? (at least that's what I remember)
edit2: Lol, stupid of me. No wonder I can't do it. jeez

Think I'm wrapping up the story. So much to do but i have this desire for an alt. Kind of disappointed i can't share items from the first character with the second.
An Animal Crossing / Dragon Quest IX crossover really needs some crossover between user created characters.
Edit: Forgot to get into the reason i logged in: the game won't let me name my pet Borscht. It says that name can't be used. Is that a swear in a language I'm not aware of? I work with languages and am only aware of it being a food.

Usually it will say if you have to do it as a specific class ("as a *insert class*"). The nice thing is you can cut it down as whatever, then just go to the guild office, switch, and turn it in. This works for many enemy/fish/ore bounties as well.
Yeah. I didn't read it carefully and just cash in the bounties without changing my class to the specified one. No wonder I can't do it since I always cash in with paladin class. Thanks for the help!
It didn't allow me to use the name "shazam". No idea why.
Are any of the items in this image in the vanilla version of the game?

Judging from what I'm seeing, almost everything good seems to be DLC only.

So is it correct to assume that vanilla generally doesn't have much in the way of equipment?
Better question: is there a list of items for both vanilla and DLC?

Is that your house? It's awesome.Random pic of the moment
Aesthetically speaking, yes.
However, I find that being a tailor offers a great range of clothing.
But if you speak at the amount of equipment available, it's different.
I think the game has a very respectable collection that get larger with the DLC.
Though, you also the password outfits that are good for low levels and you can directly access from the base game.
Try the wiki, they started to make a database : http://fantasy-life.wikia.com/wiki/Fantasy_Life_Wiki
Or check the crafting jobs pages and take a look at the recipies.
That will be all the equipements that you will be able to make except for Lunares coins equipements and passwords outfits.
By the way, everyone can help fill it.
Nah, I found it on Miiverse.
Me, I'm building a kind of shrine for Celestia, lol.

which is great!

the silver is in the water at tortuga archipelago
All I found there were piranha, lol. I'll go look again, thanks.

I feel like I'm not using certain fishing/woodcutting/mining skills right. I get the hold X to charge ones, but I've been taught some others and I don't think I'm triggering them correctly. (Or at all.)
For mining and woodcutting you have to kind of hold A, let go, hold A, etc. You'll know if you did it right because you'll pull the axe/pickaxe back a bit and then hit for more damage. Not sure if that's what you were talking about.

I'm 40 hours in and I've played completely alone. At least in this game there is a story and quests, so if you get bored of working on skills you can do those things. I have a ton of skills I haven't even tried yet still. It's worth it for sure.

I mean more for the "special" skills like Axe-copter. It says to press X after the "special skill is fully charged". What does that even mean? (Same with Midair Rod Fishing.)
I'd say yes. I'm 45 hours in and am only on the last chapter of the story. The story itself isn't that long but I keep being distracted by a bunch of other things in the game. There's always plenty of stuff to do whether it's check out other lives, do side quests or just craft stuff. And I haven't touched a second of multiplayer.
I have a feeling this is going to end up being my most played 3DS game.

The tool icon on the left side of the screen has a gauge. When it fills up yellow and your character glows, press X and the special skill (depending on your current job) is used. It's hard to miss the glowing
The multiplayer is superfluous. You basically can only mess around in multiplayer, go harvesting, kill stuff. You literally cannot do anything else involving NPCs, so you can't start or complete quests, etc.

Oh, do you actually have to be a Woodcutter, Angler, etc? That's probably what my problem is then. I'm gonna go test it out now. Thanks!The tool icon on the left side of the screen has a gauge.

P.S. I just connected with you in Ally Mode is that's okay.
Edit: It worked! I'm such a dope. Thanks again.
They're all over the place at Tortuga Archipelago!
So I finished Chapter 4 and bought the house in Al Maajik, and I decide that I should level up my Lives to Expert or higher. So I go to do my Mining Life and I notice that I have a lot of challenges in two areas I've never heard of; Nauticus Cave and Waterfall Cave. I found Nauticus Cave easily enough and feel stupid for missing it, but holy crap, my mind was blown when I found out where Waterfall Cave was! I passed by that area and never noticed the path leading behind the waterfall. It's almost like a secret area. No wonder I could never find any Iron ore, lol. And this is 46 hours in, lol.

I'll send you a msg next time you're connected. My FL name isn't the same as my GAF username.No problem. And of course it is
On the friends list it shows your in-game name followed by your Mii name. So it has your in-game name and Hours Left.

I'm not sure why they're evading you. I'm at the same place and felt overwhelmed by how many of each new log/ore nodes there were :lol

Ah yes, I see that now. Cool.
As you know, I'm not the biggest fan of the FL chat interface, but at least it did something right.

Can someone please tell me where to find the damn cabbages? I've looked everywhere. Loving the games so far but fuck those cabbages

I had to buy them from the seller on Farley's Farm.

I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet
Whoa, they got the Yoshi's to do the soundtrack for this game?
Anyway, just started...went with Carpenter first because I liked the outfit, had fun making some logs, haha. Decided to switch to Woodcutter to get some logs...
Gotta say, this game is intimidating at the beginning. I really don't know what to do first, so many choices, etc.

Where is Farley's Farm? Explain it to me as if I'm 5 years old.

Fun Fact: There are over 60(!!!) recruitable characters in this game, and if you add in pets, it's 90+. *faints*
I felt that way too, but it quickly goes away. Just keep playing and eventually it'll all flow smoothly.
It's in the West Grassy Plains. Have you unlocked that area yet? I think you have to finish Chapter 1 for it. In the East Grassy Plains, there are some guards blocking a bridge on the west side. Once they're gone, you can cross it and go to the West Grassy Plains, and Farley's Farm is your first right.

Ah thank you! No wonder I couldn't find it. I'll go unlock it now. Thank you <3

35 hours into my game, and I just went to the West Grassy Plains for the first time.
Heyoooooooooooooooooooooooooo~
Heyoooooooooooooooooooooooooo~
Finished the main story today, I'll probably check out the DLC stuff tomorrow if I can. I've also been working on getting up to legend in everything. So far I've done angler, miner, woodcutter, mercenary, and blacksmith. Was working on cook, but I need to get some more ingredients, so might jump around to multitask.

Finally purchased this game and having a good time.
And I started as a miner. Who knew that was a fun job?
