How is your new zodiak drop rates so far?

!!Joy!! Just finished my Second Zodiac Weapon!! Now starting a 3rd!!! I 1 shot'ed many of the DFs this time around, with the expection being that D*mn Snowcloak!!
I've noticed for me its the Ex Dfs that give me the biggest problems with drops. I think my drop rate might have been around 40%. ( just guessing)

Congratulations! I've begun my 4th although I'm only on the melding phase for my Sasuke's Blades. I have about 55 alex and will start melding soon. Relics have been a big part of my Final Fantasy experience.

Do I Dare start a New weapon at this time?? My scholar is light framing now and I might go Ahead and get the Zodiak upgrade for her. But a 4th might be pushing it at this time. if I get bored...maybe.

Pretty sure it's only red if you're tracking the quest (in one of the 5 listed on the right side of the screen). Even if it's not currently being tracked, the quest is still active so there's no reason you shouldn't be able to get the part.

Although setting the quest to track and checking the boss circle is a good way to verify you're doing the right dungeon if you want to be extra sure about it.

Yeah, you might be right but I've never gotten a drop while the last boss room wasnt colored red. It might be just a superstition for me, but why take any chances. lol

What's nice is you can do the Zodiac Quests as you light farm your weapon for Nexus. That's what I did at least with my Bravura Axe. I activated a couple Zodiac quests and got those done as I was collecting light and then activated the last two when I completed those. I like this quest line because unlike light farming you can use any of your roles to get what you need done. I essentially completed my Nexus and Zodiac quests a day or two apart.

Relative to drops I haven't really kept track of just how many. Some dungeons dropped first go where others were uncooperative. As I redid dungeons I continued to grab as many dungeon drops for seals and tomes for the Sacred Spring Water.

Wait ... is this a thing?
It kinda weirds me out that out of the 4 quests, some have you hand the item in as you get it, to unlock the next dungoen, while another has you run 2-3 dungeons before handing in all 3 items?
I thankfully got the AV drop this morning (1/2 runs) but honestly can;t remember if the final boss arena was red, I don;t think it was. AV is also part of a 2 part objective (can't remember the other) before i have to go hand both items in.

Well...you can only have so many quest targeted on your list. Meaning Other new quests say 5th on your to do list will not show you a "point of intest" say a red dot or area on your map. It might be just a limitation of the system but "Why take any chances" Also, you can get your Alex map drop and Zodiak drop a the same time. I didnt know that at first , but it happened.

I'll have to try and bump those quests up to the top of my list so the red area shows up, I've got some random stuff still active, and the marrage quest which isn;t going anywhere until saturday.

But yeah even it it's baseless anything that helps me think it's working helps combat rng burnout. I hated atma with a passion but followed the Japanese timezone theory just incase.
