All they require is 15 minutes of non-stop streamlined flight paths and quick interaction with nodes. Yes you can get 1 item from a favour, but they give you 5 and you can also get upwards of 5. If you want to gear up, get the gear and stop complaining about the alternate-expensive route.

    Just because someone planned out on a spreadsheet it will take you x amount of time to do things with red scrips, does not make it true. You can get a piece of gear weekly, and use 1 token on these materials. Every few weeks you craft a piece as well. By then, some T5 material may be out. Or you can go all in and just start crafting and hope you can HQ without upgrading your gear (this is the only benefit of omnicrafting and having gil atm). What advantage do these people get though? They get better gear...to do recipes they have no materials for and nobody needs...except other rich crafters.
    Thank you - and actually if the average of 4-5 items per favour holds up it'll actually be possible for me to get 2 items in this week (planning on Boltmaster's Needle and Boltmaster's Dreadnought [because frankly that thing looks sexy as all hell.]) - can keep you posted on my progress if you care.

    I Care! <3 lol Keep up to good work! Its refreshing to actually see people doing rather than complaining. We learn from your success'/mistakes so please continue leading the charge and paving the way! Your making our lives easier by removing the questions/concerns with this new system and for that i Thank you! Takes ballz to do this!

    PS. Grats on the ingot! What was the end % on the HQ? Did you start off with NQ matts ? Did you use any specialist skills or was it the trusty old 4star prioritization? How many progress actions did it take to finish? (PbP x3 > RSx2 > CS2 ?)

    PPS. What are your thoughts on Alt characters to further enhance our Omnicrafter status'? With 3 Chars thats 1350 scrips per week, surely that should make a dent in the time it takes to progress gear wise. Its seems as though only the gathering items will be tradeable so at the very least 60 MIN/BTN on all the alts would make sense no?

    I had 100% HQ, 11 Stacks of IQ with 2 Hasty Touches used at 11 Stacks of IQ - Used NQ Raziqcoat and HQ everything else.
    Used some purpose-reclaims to determine numbers - I went full yolo with 4x RS with ING2 + CSII but the safest and cost efficient finisher
    is PbPx3, RSx2 + CSII which I will use for the future. And I did not use specialist skills.

    To be honest I could not be arsed to have alts to push my Omnicrafting status - I have made some profitable deals with a few MIN and BTN legendaries on my server and asked for support from FC and raid static in exchange for permanent commission-free crafting status and its going quite nicely.

    And btw finished products like Aurum Regis Ingots and their red scripts base mats like Raziqcoat are tradable as well.
