Retainer Compendium -- My Retainer out-dps' pugs

[Rocl]

I'm going to laugh hysterically if we eventually see a level 50 retainer bring back some high allagan gear. "You mean to tell me I can't bring my chocobo into coil, but my retainer can group up and go into there!?"

More like "it takes my retainer an hour to get 15 shards but they can beat twintania?"

My level 15 retainer just brought me a 3 star synthed item.

Thanks, Darwin.

A friend just reported getting an Ifrit's Harpoon, I'll see if she can screenie

spam this crap until they nerf it...and we know they will lol

[Fondue]

if the goal is to make gil worthless besides houses, why would they nerf it? and what 3 star synthed item was it?

[Korialstrasz]

I can't even imagine what a lvl 50 retainer can bring back if 10-15s are bringing in primal weapons and 3 star items.

Worth noting, DoL retainers cannot go on a 1h venture for an item you have not yet gathered yourself. This resulted in the humorous outcome where my alt who spammed leves for FSH could not tell his lv1 retainer to get crayfish.

I had 50 FSH from 1.0, back when people would actively sit there and legitimately fish overnight to spiritbond when they should be sleeping instead which more or less counts as never having caught any fish. Looks like I'm gonna have to go catch a new fish every time my retainer levels up, but hopefully it's worth it with some rare item that can only be obtained via this.

I just hit 21 on my BTN char, it's about 20k exp (slightly more) for 1 venture. Since 21-26 exp is roughly 370k, you're talking 19-ish ventures to hit 26.

Also, I think I mentioned this before, but as far as I can tell EVERY gathering item is in the list so far. No more getting alumen for me!

Both of my retainers came back from Field Explorations with........peach confetti.

*hi5*

[Lucavi]

Got NQ Vanya hands of healing this morning.

Cool.

[Buffy]

The Exploration V assignment is available at level 20 and is a little more than 80k exp.

Retainer just brought me the ilvl70 Warwolf Bow (PvP Bow)

I just...I don't even.

[Eldelphia]

Hey, that beats my inkpot!

What type of expedition is this? Haven't messed with retainers much.

Edit: Nvm, found info.

The XP you get from Quick is supposed to correlate with the item's rarity.

8K XP seems kinda low for that weapon.

Not saying it didn't happen (especially with the Ifrit's Harpoon report) but I just found that odd.

My 3* furniture was like, 23,000? maybe.

[Rocl]

Not my pic, if you go to gw you've seen it, but while exp is supposed to be determined by weapon level I think it might be some sort of % of you're retainer's tnl.

This would explain the rather erratic exp gains, the Morbid Mogblade i75 worth 8100 exp and Garuda's Embrace i70 worth 11760 and Sath's i70 bow for 18.3k

Also I'm super curious to know what 3-star furniture your retainer brought back Sath. My sons of bitches are giving me low level fish and fucking lv45 belts.

Carbuncle Round Table. It's surprisingly ugly and tacky

[Kirbyprime]

Trying to guessimate the best way to level up retainer. Thinking of doing 1 Field Exploration and filling in remaining time with Hunting. Unfortunately, I can't exactly be in-game every hour due to work / sleep.

[BerenTebogo]

GF Just got i70 PvP Wolf Bracer's (BRD) from her lv11 retainer. This is silly.
