Quicktongue Materia III - Question?

Hey all,

Currently on the Odin(EU) server the Quicktongue III is in my opinion just a tad over priced, ranging from 120k to 90k. This makes me feel that not many people are getting their hands on many, so the supply & demand is want is pushing the price up and of course people not understand the economy of the game at this moment in time due to level 50 not being able to make vast amounts of gil like we used too while leveling up.

Anywho my question for those that may know this is where is the best possible place to gain items to get those bad boys leveled up to convert into possible Quicktongue III? I've checked the boards to see if there are many items to buy and level up, but sadly that is a no go.

So any advice would be awesome because I want to get this damn relic reborn start started :)

Cheers,
Doowie

Dunno how helpful this is, as I could be wrong as wasnt paying much attention at the time, but I think I got one from a HQ Turqoise Ring, so NQ with probs have a chance at dropping aswell?! I materia'd it with some other items I can't remember tho, sp it coulda come from one of those.
But I guessed this was better than saying nothing even tho its of probably no help lol :(

As with Blaize, I used the marketplace and a guild goldsmith to gain access to turquoise or tourmaline rings/accessories. I spend a couple hours farming fates in northern thanalan to spiritbind and covert the set and will normally get a quicktonue out of it. I got the 2 i needed for my WHM relic weapon in a single arvo just grinding like that.

Unfortunately I don't have access to a goldsmith to pump some of those out for me right now. Hoping to find a instance or location where I can find items, which have a nice chance of the materias from being converted.

Thanks for the information Zendru. I will have a look on the boards to see what's there.

I just got the quest, checked the market and found out how overpriced this is and i'm glad that i'm not the only one that can't afford 2 of those :/ Too bad that i don't have a goldsmith.

Edit:
I just noticed that those accessories are very cheap in the market, i'll try to convert them (:

yeah Superlol, I went and bought 2 rings and a necklace (normal not HQ) and will grinding some mobs to get them up and see what happens. If I do get Quicktongue from them, I'll buy the risk on there and sell the tongues for a far cheaper price then the mofo on the board currently.

Exactly the same thought as mine. They are cheap and give good mnd and piety for now, and selling the Quicktongue for 20-30k would be much better and a nice profit.
Do you have a good way to get the soulbond up? I thought about fate farming but maybe there is a better way..

You will only get it up from mobs you kill and not experience you gain from quests. Personally I'm farming the leves in camp Bluefog as I had 80 Allowances to burn though, but you get around 1% of a spiritbind from kill 2 level 47+ mobs.

Yeah, I do northern thanalan FATEs to help farm spiritbinding. Those ones that have a bunch of small stuff to kill give good spiritbinding if you can tag enough of them

Well 3 accessories didn't even convert to 1 Quicktongue ..

Sadly its not garrenteed. I generally find I get about a 20% chance overall. Still, if your willing to put in the time, its easier on the wallet.

I guess that i'll just keep doing what i did before (farming AK and etc) with the accessories, instead of grinding just for soulbond since its so boring, i wanted to kill myself ._.

From the 2 rings and the 1 necklace I bought, which cost me around 15k in total, I ended up with one Quicktongue III :)

Just sent and spend 24,000 on 2 rings, earring and necklace. Going to hope for at least 1 more :)

When i noticed this recently i was like wth my main char is on Zodiark and it feels like we getting ripped off somehow in EU.
I mean this is rediculous look at the big diffrnce
in US servers they pretty much have it really easy there.
People in the EU server need to master the economy still i guess but its still insane to me D: i dont want to pay alot of gill that i earn very hard to 1 item and start all over again .

Lich Server, That Mataria only cost 48k-100k. Often 40k+

That's super bizarre to see those materia that expensive. As of right now, this is Sargatanas:

Maybe there's some difference in builds or some such that causes it?

5k in cactuar

all IIIs are very cheap ( on 5k par )

IVs strike 200k+

Yeah, the IV's are insanely expensive. Funny part, the II's are more expensive than III's on Sarg.

Maybe it's due to the changes in spiritbonding (i.e. i90 gear is no longer 100% IV tier).

It's because Zodiark is a new server and the markets ain't stable yet. I also started from Zodiark. When I moved to Shiva i was baffled how cheap some stuff were compared to what I was used to. But this also works the other way around for example some crafting mats that were worth nothing in Zodiark were sold immediately at high price in here.

Given some time and more population i'm sure the prices in Zodiark will go down too.

how the hell can that materia cost that much !?

on topic: Spirit bound tier III gear is the best you can do, the materia get from gear is still random, but you should be able to sell other materia & gamble the junk one to have a chance to get something else

Just some info to help out: idk on other servers, but on Behemoth crafters usually craft for free if you give them the materials. And one of the best places to spiritbind is Urth's Gift (quarrymill teleport). There a bunch of Water Spirits are close together and all you need is to walk around the big crystal there aggroing everything then pilling them up and AoEing them (preferably as a WHM for Holy). Im sure there are other ways too but this is the one I use the most =P

I was always under the impression that any SB item, you can get any materia of the stats of said item. So, if the item has spell speed, then you might get a materia with spell speed.

It is pretty random really..

Any battle related thing you convert can be ANY battle related materia. A militia robe (i55 mage set) can turn into Vitality III, while the heavy militia (i55 tank set) can turn into savage aim III.

Craft and gathering convertible items are more intuitive due to there not being many materia of that type to begin with. Convert a gathering ring and you'll get gathering materia! Convert a crafting ring and, you guessed it, you'll get a craft materia.

Only DoW items can yield Strength, Dexterity, Battledance, or Quickarm. Only DoM items can yield Mind, Piety, Intellect, or Quicktongue. Either one can yield Vitality, Savage Aim, Savage Might, or Heaven's Eye.

Every DoM gear should have a chance to give a Quicktongue materia.
Look if some leves in Mor Dhonna give you DoM gear as reward to get some cheap gear for SB ^^

Uuhm, huh!?

Just wait till you start to work on Novus materias, then you will see mega high prices. On my server, Det IV materias are 500,000 Gil each on a cheap day, way worse on a busy day.

They can. Off the top of my head, the weaver leves can possibly give you a felt robe.

I forget what the goldsmith ones give... hm.

Aurum Vale is an instance where aetherial items drop that are around lvl 47. They have the potential to go III or IV that you could try. It can be a very long dungeon depending on your group, though. :(

Mor Dhona Leves also have a possibility of having a blue chest spawn during that can drop an aetherial item from 45-47ish too I think.

Those are the only alternatives to not commissioning a goldsmith to make you accessories, but they would be a lot more time consuming.

I mean the battle leves. The crafting leves give you only mats or shards.

Bluh, you're right it is a battlecraft leve that gives the felt robe.

The weaver one gives a part to a coif or something.
