I'm upto 830K Gil.
Which is pretty decent for somebody without any crafting or gathering crafts at lvl50. My goal is to hit a mil before putting gil on the back burner.

They want you to make it yourself sadly.
Animus is as far as we can take it for 2.2 apparently.
Whatever comes next won't be there will SE decides.
The real take away is that the relic the grind isn't over, it's never over.
Congrats!
It's unfortunate that I had to miss you obtain it [and Kawazi getting his weapon], but perhaps the fact that they were dropped in my absence means I was cursing you all with it not dropping. Regardless, I am relieved! I was beginning to think that it would never drop...
It's kind of sad that we're done with Turn 5, though. I honestly enjoy it quite a bit.
Eh, it's kinda of a silly thing if you ask me. Gathering has always been pretty closely tied to the market board and I don't see why someone who has the money shouldn't take a shortcut.
I had heard that they were going to add more steps in the upgrade process in 2.25, which makes sense if it's true. Presumably that'd give the weapons an ilvl of 110, which would make them a decent alternative to players that couldn't luck out on the drops they'd need in Coil 2 to get the GF weapons upto 110.
Seeing as they're recycling content for this quest, getting the next step in 2.25 is probably quite plausible. My guess is that for whatever reason the full quest just wasn't quite finished for 2.2.

I so wanted the sailor shoes to match with my shirt but those pieces of mariner cloth sell for so much...shoes will wait.
12 more Atma!
Now you grind dungeons for the Atma and it drops with the same % rate.

Yeah. Next class will definitely be Thief then into Ninja (or Ninja branching off GLA).

Doesn't make a difference though partying will make you feel like shit when you cycle through several party loads of players before you get yours.
Damn that sounds horrible. =(
In general, are the FATES up long enough for solo people to get a gold medal on them? Do you even have to get gold to have a chance at the Atma drop?
Fate grinding won't be so bad since I need like 700 more for my PS3 trophy anyway as I never did much Fate grinding for leveling.
I get the feeling it's simply going to be something like Scout leading into Ninja from the Doma teachings & maybe Thief from the native Limsans that may have taught Thancred. The fact that they get their own stance and already have canned animations makes me think it's a full class with job offshoots.
If nothing else, I'd imagine that the Doma teachings will lead to offshoots for other Jobs (Samurai, etc), but Nin will come specifically from whatever class uses the dual wielding daggers. Also I wonder if we'll literally give them the 'Daggers' that are currently classified as swords for GLD.
Seems like a lot of work to add in a whole other set of weapons when a lot of the daggers would probably be suitable.
Bronze is enough, I once got 1 atma while dealing 2 attack on a mob before he died.
This is amazing news. Time to go solo, kill a mob or two and run to the next FATE.
My last atma was in my inventory when getting back in from a 90k error. I probably had a bronze on it as well.
Tag quote, be careful though, who knows maybe you have to be in range of the fate to get your atma.
at least we got working crystal tower
Yep, starting to think we won't be able to get much done tonight. It's the start of eastcoast prime time, and I was lagging in Limsa out of nowhere.
Ooh nice, thanks for the info! I will just solo this at my own leisure then.

LOL yup. We had the same problem last night in there.
Maybe, I never stayed in the same zone for more than an hour and I'm done. The second there were no FATEs up in a zone then I was immediately porting somewhere else.
I know you don't as I got an ATMA while completing another FATE.
Also tag quote? Why? If FATE's weren't packed already, it would be a dick move, but honestly, need FATE's to last longer right now. I know I've run to a FATE so many times for it to be done in a minute by a huge set of PT's.
The system works best when everyone is at the same FATE at the same time, then the whole group moves to the next and so on. One person peeling away and working at other FATEs isn't so bad but when multiple people think they are the only one then FATEs start dropping when people haven't gotten in them.
I did the worst thing last night.
Didn't realize I had firm hate on the boss monster and peeled off when another FATE spawned. I guess the boss went invincible after he left the area trying to get me so everyone ended up failing. Didn't even notice till I was gone and everyone in the area was shouting. Whoops.
#partoftheproblem
I did something similar, that annyoing slug monster in one of the shroud zones that splits into smaller slugs had hate on me (I'm BLM) and I was slowly inching backwards everytime it did it's aoe attack, I guess me slowly inching back caused me to walk out of it's area which did the same invincible and back to max health routine. We still completed it but that FATE already takes so damn long.
Except I like getting 70 tomes in one shot.

I would murder to have one damn form of customization in this game. Anything. Enchanting, reforging, materia outside of crafted junk, tweaks to the attribute system to allow moving around substats at a 6 or 7 to 1 ratio vs a main stat, etc.
Having a hard acc cap with no way to move anything around is such a pain. It makes gearing up so painful.
hopefully in the future.

I agree but as it stands, it's almost a non-issue. Except for the hardcore min/maxers the game for everyone else is just make your ilvl bigger and bigger and things will come more in line with your character.
Welcome to the myth grind.
dat extreme grind tho.

How do you people still keep up with this game? Maybe it was because my server had awful players or major assholes around every corner, but from what I've read I'm SOOO glad I didn't come back for 2.2. This level of a grind is just ridiculous and I've played XI. I just don't have the time, nor the patience for it.
How are you people still SANE from this? Also, the crafting is supposedly really bad now or something with the ilvl 90 stuff, so GG square.

Still stand by what I said.
The crafting isn't really bad, it's just that now everything isn't an easy HQ. In that sense, it has become more interesting, even if we fail.

Is there a list for which Soldiery gear WHMs should buy in order? Seems like all the DET is on High Allagan gear.
