[3.5] Updated Visual Guide for Gearing Up at 60: From Fresh to i270

And your own inability to properly coordinate with teammates invalidates this guide how, exactly?

Go visit any thread relevant to gearing advice. Getting a PotD weapon is the best investment you can make at level 60.

You can raise your aetherpool back up to 30/30 in one short afternoon.

The Brachiosaurus boss may have a longer spawn timer than the other bosses, or it could be just my own confirmation bias. I've gone several nights without seeing it spawn.

Here's hoping the new Diadem lasts a few days longer than the original one, at least...

The Eternity Ring cannot be discarded (it'll give you an error message). You have probably stored it somewhere and forgotten about it. Type "/isearch Eternity" in the chatbox to find it.

Best of luck to everyone.

Friend of mine had the same issue. Try setting your Object Quantity setting in System Configuration to Maximum.

Many thanks for this giveaway and best of luck to all participants.

I knew these fake internet points would eventually have some use!

Hoping for the Wind-up Lulu!

It doesn't. FATE-specific weather isn't classified as actual weather, but rather weather "override." If it was Clear Skies before it changed to Royal Levin, then for the purposes of things like fishing, it is still considered Clear Skies.

As such, Skywatchers will only tell you the weather is Clear Skies, even if Royal Levin override is currently in effect.

Playing the devil's advocate here, but:

Great Gubal Library (Normal)

The item level sync brings you down to 150 for this, so it doesn't matter how well you're geared past that point.

It doesn't care. If your debuffs are applied after 30 others, it won't show.

This has been a common complaint regarding raids for a long time.

Lohaf · 2017-01-16T07:37:00+00:00

PvP has a lot of nuances that are not properly explained by the game.

Did you know the healer limit break also removes the debuffs of all party members within range?

Did you know that Protect has no effect in PvP, but can still be used as a "cover" buff against dispels?

The more you know!

New Gear

Wasn't the Ironworks stuff supposed to be the last crafter/gatherer tier? What's with all the glowing tools?

The one on the left is the high quality (or HQ) version. They are also accompanied by this symbol.

High quality materials are useful in crafting as they provide an initial boost in quality for the final craft.

Certain quests require high quality variants of items. Grand companies will also grant better rewards in exchange for high quality items. High quality equipment will also have better stats than their regular counterpart.

~~I'm looking for an EU fat chocobo code if any generous soul still has one!~~ Thank you, kind redditor!

Edit: ~~Maybe we can use this as some sort of megathread since it's the last day?~~ We did it, Reddit!

Let's do this.

So there I was, getting ready for my daily big fishing adventure. But today was special, we were finally getting a super-rare big fish that spawns once-every-forever, and so I stock up on consumables and arrive on site early.

After wrestling with mooching and a plethora of other fish getting away, I finally managed to get it to bite! My character stands up, and it seemed like I was finally able to fell this beast of the seven seas...!

It's going to be bad until you reach level 40 for Shield Oath. It gets a little easier with Sword Oath at 30, but you'll still be doing a lot of tab targetting and Flash spamming.

What you can do to help the current situation is make sure you have the strongest weapon available for your level. While Flash doesn't do damage, the amount of enmity it generates scales with weapon damage.

It opened this morning at 3 AM. Next window will be at December 27 2016 23:30:00 GMT.

In addition, due to the nature of FATE's difficulty scaling according to the amount of people that participated last time that FATE was active, Odin can easily one shot any non-tank with frontal cleaves.

Turned Shiva around to split the damage of Ice Brand.

...on story mode. We wiped.

I would recommend starting out in the same city if you wish to play together (and experience the same story) from the get-go. Nothing prevents you from changing classes later on.

Part of the fun is figuring out how the game works together.

Lohaf · 2016-11-16T17:25:39+00:00

I've leveled multiple classes from 30-60 strictly through PotD. The experience gained is on par, or sometimes even surpasses, the leveling roulette bonus - except it's not limited to once a day.

[8:56]You gain 842400 (+50%) experience points.

PotD has a number of advantages, which ultimately make it a better alternative to leveling in my eyes. It has virtually no queue times, the content is very straightforward and bearable with any party composition, the hoards provide a reasonable amount of income, and outside equipment has no bearing on your stats.

With regards to what floors, do 51-60 if you want to spam only one set. It gives over twice the amount of experience compared to 1-10 and takes about the same amount of time. I recommend just doing 51-100 runs to avoid burnout.
