Advice on Nexus step to Zodiac weapon?

I've heard of a more than optimal way to proceed with the final part after Nexus in terms of gathering up all the materials and in which order to do the quests that allow you to finish the weapon, could someone illustrate them for me? I'm not finding anything on Reddit and the like.

Something about out of the four quests to do, doing one or two of them before the others would allow you to more effectively gather up what you need in terms of Soldiery and dungeon drops and the like.

Basically, make sure to have 1600 sol tome + 20K GC seal when you start the Zodiac Brave quest. This way you will be able to do 3/4 of quest at once.

For example:
- Ponze of Flesh
- Labor of Love
- Method in His Malice

Along the way of collecting drop from 3/4 quests, you will use the next 1600 sol + 20K GC to buy the 4th quest (A Treasured Mother) and then you can do all the 4 quests.

Then you need to find yourself a ritual before exiting the dungeon, everyone seems to have their own drill. I like to turn off my monitor and speaker upon the exit then come back later for a surprise. Some does gentleman pose in real life for lucky drop.

I just make myself think there is no hope of getting a drop and then it will drop. Only when I expect a drop I will never get it. I will try to pose IRL and see if that helps too!

you can buy the cores b4 u get to nexus stage so if you get that out of the way 1st saves alot of time farming and pretty sure you can buy the sol items aswell which also saves alot of time im currently stuck on the crafting items part since none of my crafters can make the stuff needed n seriously expensive in my world lol :(

If you're on teamspeak or something else with other players, try singing silly songs before exiting... :p

The drop rate is also double during Light Bonus
