Guess I don’t see what you’re trying to say.

That's the Astrope mount, for doing 2000 mentor roulettes.


Grats

Aye congratz man. I am still at only 365/2000 and it's been an ordeal to say the least...

Congratulations!

Even though Astrope is grindable, I feel like it's still more of a chore to get then the Centurio Tiger due to how much more involved dungeon runs are vs. hunting S ranks.

Congratulations!

Grats! Hope it didn't drive you as crazy as it did me. It's okay though I'm mostly recovered now :D

Trust me, unless you live, breathe, and die S ranks, the level of difficulty is nowhere near close. S ranks also require player effort to spawn, you know; they don't just appear on their own.

I have the tiger and am trying to get the Ultimate Thrillseeker title (Under the likely faulty assumption it'll also offer an achievement reward in the future), so I know plenty well how much effort it can take to spawn some S ranks.

The majority of them only take a minute or two to check up on, though, and if you have an exhaustive LS network and people to help you hunt them down, it takes a lot of the stress out of it as it becomes unlikely you'll miss anything if you're not AFK. I work in shifts monitoring them with a group of friends so we can actually do other stuff while we wait for them to spawn.

It feels more...relaxed then the dungeon grind of the Astrope mount because it's kind of counter-productive to constantly check on the S ranks anyways (I usually wait a hour or so between checks on ones that aren't time restricted; longer for the especially annoying ones like Leucrotta and Udumbara).

This is assuming you just stand around usually not doing anything else in the game. Lost count of the number of hunt calls I was not able to do anything about due to being in a duty.


For me, if I were actively trying to get the tiger, the main source of difficulty would be trying not to fall asleep out of sheer boredom.

I guess i'm usually doing things like crafting and fishing while hunts are active, specifically saving the raids and more time-intensive stuff for when most/all of the hunts are dead.

I've been making my play schedule revolve around hunts for so long that I've started seeing it as "normal" when it really isn't.

So yeah, the Astrope is definitely more relaxed of a grind in that you can do it on your own time. If I ever did try to get it, I'd set a daily milestone like 10 roulettes per day to retain my sanity, though.

Congratulations on getting that mount!
