Quicktongue Materia III

I got one from a HQ wand of flame, but I think rings spiritbond faster than weapons (I can't say for sure) and I've heard from a number of people that rings and earrings are the way to go if you don't want to just buy one. Sadly, I'm going to need another since the first one went to my lv50 alchemist quest.

Im converting them myself but im unlucky i convertet 15 pieces of gear (50) and only one Quicktoungue till know.

The white level 49 Goldsmith-crafted items are the best way to get these.

Buy yourself a necklace, 2 rings, earring and maybe bracers, of whichever gem type matches up with the type of stat you want. Eg, as a Paladin, I used 4 Amber tanking jewels, which had Parry on them. I'm not sure on the way it works out, but I believe there's a much higher chance of getting a materia with the stat type you want if the item has that kind of stat on it already. So after extracting 5 of these white 49s once I'd spiritbound them, I ended up getting 3 Battledance Materia IIIs (the parry one for the paladin relic).

I hear different things about the way Materia is chosen. Quicktongue is Spell Speed, so I -believe- you have a much higher chance of getting Quicktongue Materia IIIs out of the level 49 TURQUOISE earrings/rings etc than out of any other item, as Turquoise gear has Spell Speed. This might be incorrect, some people have said the stats don't matter and it's purely random, some people say it does matter. But after getting 3 Battledance Materia out of 5 extractions of items with Parry on, I'm inclined to believe it holds true. You can still get bad materia like wind/fire resistance from any though.

It takes 3-4 runs of AK or Castrum to spiritbind a ring. Every time you hit 100%, extract it, and either sell the Materia III you get to finance more buys, or you got lucky with hte type you want.

This, exactly this. I've play 50 whm, and when I run AK / Castrum, I always keep a pair equipped so I can make some gil, and about 40-50% of the time, I will end up with a Quicktongue Materia III. The accessories are cheap to make for a 50 goldsmith who knows what their doing. I've done this process about 20 times, and gotten around 13 quicktongue materia III. Made a lot of gil from it.

I finally broke down and bought mine off the auction house last night. I was soulbinding accessories and converting them into materia, and only getting junk from them. So I got fed up :( You just gotta be lucky I guess.

Run Leve quests for gear. Get a set of 45+ Gear.

Go to CM with crap gear to spiritbind... or a Fate group in northern than.

Convert said gear.. Profit.

When I needed them they costed about 100k each on Odin. I read the XXFIV forums however and went with a cheaper alternative.
Get the Turquoise Ring and Turquoise Choker, get 100% spiritbond and convert them.
I've converted about 6 rings and 3 chokers. Got 2x Quicktongue III, 2x Savage Aim III, 1x Mind III, 1x Piety III, 1x Ice III and 2x Savage Might III.
The first time I tried this method I got 1 Quicktongue III and 1 Savage Aim III so I kept trying.
The items themself costed me about 6k each (so 36+18) but by getting them spiritbond I got well over 150k in return besides the Quicktongues by farming mobs.
If you don't care about not making back the money then the quickest way to get them to 100% is doing dungeons.
1 CM run got them from 34% to 92%

Hope that helped and good luck :)

And here is what you do to save you up some money:

My boyfriend bought 2 Accessoiries from the Auction Board, both had Speel Speed and Int/Mnd on them.
I do not remember the exact name but I will update this and put it in.
All you do then is farm fates or do CM runs to spiritbond and afterwards convert them.
I had my Quicktongue III materia within 2 hours and payed only 15k Gil for the items bought at the Auction House - keep in mind that most people want it confy and quick, they rather just buy stuff instead of making it themselves, of course the prices would go high. But - it's not hard to obtain that materia by doing it yourself!

It is just random I am guessing. Converted like 2 sets of tourmaline jewelry and other assorted level 45+ gear and I never got the materia that I need. In contrast my tank friend who is farming spirit bond with me got a battledance out of almost every item he converted.

It's really senseless that the alchemy 50 quest requires a quicktongue III materia.

If, say, it required a type of materia that comes from converting the alembic or the mortar? That would make sense. That would be thematic, since, wow, those items are used in alchemy, and this is...the alchemy quest.
