Gray can tell you about it.
Not really 🙂 Everything was told already… in this topic. Crafting was nice during the first days of ShB – it made me some 3-5 mil daily (though not even close to 1-20 mil you promised before 😉 ); and that’s while having 200-250k of profit from every item sold! Right now it’s less than 100k per item, which I don’t consider worthy at all. So yes, much like in most other games: grinding and more grinding is way to go for a botter.
What can moderator do that common users can’t? Close/delete topics, edit/delete posts, suspend users, ban spam bots. Do you see any need for such extreme measures? Often enough? I don’t.
If you want to be helpful, just answer to newbie questions (given that you are 90%+ sure Miqobot representative would give the same answer) – like Lyfox, Arc, Carl and LutBot do, for example… you don’t need any special status for that.
You’re gonna be eating those words rather soon I believe.
Why would I? 700 GP rotation is very easy to achieve w/o any materia VIII – just put Guile VI in all safe slots, and overmeld it with Guile III-IV when needed. 850 GP rotation is out-of-question to me, though… I guess you have to just afkUntil() between unspoileds to regen 550 GP in 2 Eorzea hours, after drinking cordial. I don’t afk 🙂 I gather useful stuff in between unspoileds, so I manage to regen 500 or maybe 520, max 530 GP naturally. You don’t regen when you hit a node, you know… just regain 5 GP per hit, which is way below natural lvl80 regen.
Russet popoto is a shadowbringer botany (lvl 76)scrip item. for yellow scrips, so you can get the folklore books to do white scrips. you should have gatehred it while lvling im sure.
It’s good to know that, but I collected all the yellow scrips needed out of lvl70-72 unspoileds, way before I hit 80 🙂
You need 2086 gathering for the max yield on miner/botanist retainers. Combat is ilvl 425.
2083 is enough. For combat, though, yes – go for ilvl425, as there are no better loot than sea swallow skins. And no, white crafted gear is not enough for combat retainer… not even white crafted + blue set from Tempest dude: you have to obtain at least one goetia item.
It’s not “time is money”, it’s “I have to spend 20 less seconds on the one craft I do once per week”, which people want.
This is very, VERY weird logic… logic I never understand, I guess. So, in order to save 20 secs per week, you run bot for HOURS to earn tons of gil and buy materia VII and VIII (or rather earn lots of scrips and exchange them to this materia – does not matter) o_O
Yes, but you get thrown at with so much materia (when the new custom deliveries and new crafter beast tribes get released), that I don’t care. If I get the materia back, it’s just a neat bonus. Before Stormblood you couldn’t get materia back at all. You could only destroy it from the slots.
Hilarious %) Well, I guess I’m not going to meld materia VIII even into safe spots (unless absolutely needed to reach critical values of CP/GP). At least, not until we receive real (star) crafting/gathering sets / until materia prices go down from 270k to some 60-80k, like in SB…
Miqobot is fixed for Patch 5.01!
Please restart your Miqobot for the changes to take effect.
Does that mean this is “the next update” mentioned above?
We have identified the problem and will address it in the next update.
I mean, the update where Miqo won’t try to land to use Truth anymore?
Not sure if you are fucking serious with this reply or not, but you can get the fuck out of here with your bullshit. You are the dumbass talking about a 850gp + gathering melds, depsite Impulsive appraisal proc rate being based on PERCEPTION. you dumb fuck.
Ever heard about caps, you polite one? You aren’t getting more than 115 collectability from Methodical, no matter if you have 1800 or 2200 Per. Oh, and 850gp rotation has zero Impulsive in it, so learning to read might help, too…
But if you can get it crafted in 24 steps just by melding a bit or even in 20 steps by pentamelding, that’s reason enough for people to do so.
Now THAT’s “time is money”! %) I’m surprised that people whose time costs THAT much actually craft something – as opposed to buying gil, hehe…
The usual pentamelds have the super-“expensive” Grade 8 and 7 materia melded into the safe-slots and sometimes also overmelded into the first overmeld slot
I’d never overmeld even materia 5 (let alone 7) even into the first overmeld slot. Heck, 17% chance to overmeld materia which costs 35k per item? 206k (at average) per overmeld? That’s almost like buying an extra materia 8… Besides (assuming ShB follows the same way as it was in SB), did I got it right: once you meld materia 8 into safe slot, there is just 40% chance to take it back once the next tier of gathering eq is released?
In 3.1, which came roughly 4.5 months after the launch of Heavensward, we got the Chimerical Felt crafter/gatherer gear, which was also white.
In 3.3, which came roughly 7 months after patch 3.1 we got Carbonweave and Ironworks gear for crafters/gatherers, which were green and blue.Hrrm… are you sure? Chimerical Felt was the first lvl60 gear set – wasn’t it supposed to be analogue of current Swallowskin / Dwarven Cotton set, which arrived right together with basic addon? Maybe it was Carbonweave that arrived in 4.5 months, and Ironworks in 7 months?
2182/2182 gets you to 95/15 on 1*
No Shit Sherlock 🙁 so it’s next to impossible to collect 2182 gathering AND 850 GP at the same time, using our current white set…
How fast is this comparing to run white scripts nodes and buy colored sands from them.
You get at average 3 collectables out of an average spot w/o bonuses, each of which grants you some 29-30 white scrips at average. Even the cheapest aethersand costs you 100 scrips, and you can receive more than one if you are gathering aethersands manually. Go figure…
There is something weird with Miqo combat… Even if all activities are stopped (gathering, scenarios and such), as soon as I start fighting (manually!) some random mob with seemingly inactive Miqo in the background, it turns on some special state where you can’t move, can’t even rotate camera (much like during MSQ events), which basically kills you if you are fighting S-rank. Any ideas how to turn it off (apart from quitting Miqo for the time of manual fight)?
We’ll be using these white sets for a good white.. 3 months at least.
You mean there will be 3 months until patch 5.1 which is supposed to add new gathering gear?? For real, no kidding?…
Also if your aim with BTN/MNR is solely to gather collectables then lvl70 Gear (Onishi) iand some food perhaps is plenty enough to get minimum collectability off the new legendary nodes.
You mean Yamashi (as Onishi is crafting set)? Nah, Swallowskin set is far superior to Yamashi… it’s not that hard to create the set itself – what I disagree with is melding it with materia VIII. However, if we REALLY aren’t getting any new stuff during the next two weeks or so, I’ll prolly consider it… as soon as prices drop low enough, of cos.
2084 gathering is actually picked meticulously in order to hit the 2083 gathering breakpoint for 95% chance of Lv 80 0-star nodes)
Well, problem is: 4 out of 6 white unspoiled nodes are 1-star… any idea how much gathering you need to reach 95% there?
Then I wonder why does everyone started to buy materia right now like crazy 😛 Guess they think they will have to craft (and thus meld) new gathering gear tomorrow! hehehe
Besides, this topic was mostly about melds. I’m kind of surprised: everyone agreed that there are just two worthy setups mentioned above, with no objections?
