Case+1 1300 reward is 3 Old Cases+1

The plate is missing from the 1300 rewards, but "old toolbox" key item is available. GG SE.


Its still 3 Aby kupons, and the dial keys is also 3.

the only thing you fall behind on is the title. You don't have to interact with a single 30-plaudit objective to reach 1,300 plaudits in 2 weeks.

I don't want to do this for two weeks. I've got... not better things to do with my time, I guess, but things I'd rather invest my time in; ideally each day I'd look at the new objectives, say "fine, fine, if I have to, hell no" and choose the ones I like, but this setup means now I have to strategize. "Is this so bad that I want to lock this slot for two days?"

There's no reason it has to be designed this way, and that is why I'm so upset about the whole thing, somebody made a conscious choice to leave it set up in a way that is hostile to players.
The design isn't good, but if you are pressed about 'falling behind' you can get the round rewards done in a weekend, claim your abyssea trophies and be done with it. It's only stressful if you value the gold tier rewards at the rate of 7 trivial dailies over ten days. That's a you thing and I can't help you with that.

Reminder that VanaBout 1's goal reward was so tight that if you missed a day, you were pretty much out of the running for gold reward, and all the objectives required you to do 4 to 5 ambuscades A DAY.

And thats not even getting into their community goal expectations.

Didnt you have to set the vanabout ROE's every day too that first time?

Sorry if this has been asked before:
How many max plaudits can you earn per day? - From my count it looks like 610, meaning you could theoretically get gold in 3 days assuming you grinded? Yes/no?
Is today Day 1 or Day 2? I saw a few posts saying they cleared some earlier and the objectives were replaced, but I don't see that on my screen.

Looks like its 150 per day with 460 from the non-daily objectives, currently on Day 2 now as it started earlier today.

Mad because you didn't understand the joke or cranky in general.

Insert tampon and/or wash out sand and tell someone that cares. Somewhere else, preferably.

Anybody had issues with Heroines' fight? What did you do and at what point did you get credit for the objective?

Just did it on pup, no issues. Need to defeat 3 of the girls.

I think I goofed on the lost chocobo though, had to leave it mid-run and now no one else offers it, probably until next conquest tally.

Make sure you're doing the right heroine fight?

Day 1: https://www.bg-wiki.com/ffxi/Heroines_Combat - Martial Ball Invite
Credit soon as 3rd mob died (Prishe + Shantotto > Curilla)
Day 2: https://www.bg-wiki.com/ffxi/Heroines%27_Holdfast - Athena Orb
Credit soon as first 'boss' died (Lion in the first tower)

Can you not do https://www.bg-wiki.com/ffxi/Tango_with_a_Tracker and then https://www.bg-wiki.com/ffxi/Requiem_of_Sin in the same week? I did the first one but Granpappy won't give me the second.

She goes away in jan/feb and they might have Matsuyi-P as the global reward for 4th doubt

Cornieface going away till 2027, at least, enjoy it while you can

It also (unsurprisingly) goes without saying, the win is already all but certain. Not necessarily the 150% though.

Okay so SE is being especially lazy because the list of rewards is straight up *** wrong. The Maven items are not there. Instead there's Large White Tail and Large Leaf. The Gold Tier inexplicably has "Experience Points", and I can't think of anyone insane enough to pick that. I assume "Old toolbox" is the plate fragment but without someone picking it, we're not gonna know if they give out the wrong KI or not. Regardless, I updated the chart on BG wiki.

In case the Swarm comes up again and you bring more than 1, only 1 has to do anything and all get credit. Just FYI. Geo will one shot everything but the turtles. I got 76k points not knowing what to expect and you only need 1k for the win.

I spotted the Old toolbox and did a bug report, didn't realize the tail and leaf were mistakes because that's the sort of thing SE just generally thinks deserves to be an event reward.

It's good to know that this is so important to them that they take the time to dot the "t"s and cross the "i"s though.
