Is there any way for a 50 SCH to get decent xp in reives?

**dejet** · 2013-09-07 20:38

unless its changed there is exp lost for every lvl under 99 you are. thus at 50 it would be very small I would guess. So to answer, probably not

It would be zero. iirc it was -5% per lvl so you'd hit zero way before 50. Not to mention the more recent changes in reives make it hard for even lvl 99s to get evals (I've litterally gotten no evals including final with just 3 jug pets on a reive an no one else fighting and none with just 1 jug and 1 auto since they kill fast enough)

Just verifying this. Missing Run LB and AF quests, Frontier Station building assignments for Foret/Morimar, and missing all Advisor rank assignments, I have everything else from SoA completed, and notta. Its looking like either all Advisor assignments completed, or all assignments, unlocks them. Or they weren't even supposed to be added to the .dats yet and they're currently unachievable. Seems awkward that the bronze ranks would be so annoying to get, really makes me wonder what they've got in the works for the future of coalitions.

Time to file a bug report? Maybe they were meant to be easier to obtain. Maybe we'll all get them retroactively if someone files a report

**fantasticdan** · 2013-09-08 12:18

File a bug report about not being able to obtain unannounced key items that were found via datamining? Yeah ok...

Didnt SE say they were gonna give a purpose to Cactuar Needles but then never did?

**Hitou** · 2013-09-08 17:14

SE said a lot of things that never happened. But yes.

**dasva** · 2013-09-08 17:15

SE said they were going to make pet th gear to compensate for lowering falcoor and ladybug... then said they never said that

**Hitou** · 2013-09-08 17:32

Never really understood why they lowered TH on Yuly anyway. THF gets way more TH via gear. I guess people were just pissed off at all the bst running around in dynamis. But they still were after the nerf and most of them were using Nanzuna anyway, even before the nerf.

Tbf two different people said those things. Camate and Okipuit I think.
Nonetheless, it was really ridiculous.

In Hindsight it's been a bad choice which irritated part of the community and produced no solid result (supposing their intent was to reduce the amount of BSTs being in Dyna zones)

**errantfish** · 2013-09-09 02:21

Finished all advisor rank assignments today. Actually to clarify, in doing so, I also finished all available assignments period, including the frontier station assignments.

I checked in at the library and got the bronze mattock cordon and 10k bayld. She used the "coalition assignments" dialogue.

I talked to her again and got the bronze shovel cordon and 20k bayld. She used the "alliance" dialogue.

On speaking to her a third time, she said "That's enough for now. Give yourself a scrrratch on the back. I guess we prrroved the saying, "curiosity killed the cat" wrong, huh?"

I'm unsure if I was awarded both KIs for completing all advisor assignments or 1 for that and 1 for doing all assignments or something like that. If one is for completing all assignments, I can't imagine it includes the frontier station assignments as a prerequisite as it would lock out too many people.

**errantfish** · 2013-09-09 02:25

Actually, I think I can post images now, so let me put up a screencap of that.

**Hitou** · 2013-09-09 05:50

I hope it's just all advisor rank assignments, or at the very least doesn't require the frontier station assignments because the vast majority of players didn't do them or even get the chance to do them. You probably can't check yet, but what does the recast time lower to and how many can you hold max now?

**Ophannus** · 2013-09-09 08:06

Someone make a spreadsheet go!

**Slycer** · 2013-09-09 09:26

Only FFXI would have an "achievement" system (their word, not mine) where you don't even know what you achieved. I mean really, "advancing the alliance"? wtf

Thanks for the good find, in any case, seems both of those are definitely coalition-related.

Just checked to see if one was a (made up number, too lazy to count total # of assignments) complete 96/100 assignments type of achievement, to exclude the frontier station ones, but still allow those who've done them to get credit towards this. This doesn't appear to be the case, as I completed the Marjami and Yorcia frontier station assignments, but am missing 2 Advisor assignments, and didn't receive any KI yet. Won't have the tags to finish til 11 tonight, hopefully doing so gets both KIs.

They are very small adjustments from what I can see, which I guess lends weight to the thought that the bronze KIs are the first of several ones they will be adding.

It seems to lower recast time by 30 min and from the npc dialogue, allows you to hold one extra. Yes, one.
