Find someone to craft it for you in your server. They are not that hard to craft anymorr. If you were here I'd craft all of them for you for free. ^-^
Gotta say, it seems like they focused on all the stuff I care about least (pvp, gold saucer, crafting[i think? I glossed over it]). The relic part is nice, seems like it will be a lot less grindy and gives a decent reward. A nice horizontal progression choice from the relic. For SCH it's actually a bit tough.
like mega crit of the relic vs accuracy melds of the Lore. I think I'm going to go with the relic though.
Only problem is the Diadem items are still a fortune, fact the Straps are more then the actual item so crafting them is a bit of an issue Since i still end up paying 3-4 mil since people on my server charge a fortune for the diadem items.
Edit: Checked the Price of Ada francissa and it was 400k per item, the Straps for them are 290k per item and very rare on the mb...
This is the same story for all the items.

I love the increase of xp and MGP. And it appears all the people who complained about CT are getting their wish, well for a limited time it seems.
So go into diadem and gather? >.> You'll get everything you need in 20 minutes tops. The straps are made by leatherworker so just get mats for that too...Only problem is the Diadem items are still a fortune, fact the Straps are more then the actual item so crafting them is a bit of an issue Since i still end up paying 3-4 mil since people on my server charge a fortune for the diadem items.

If you don't have a gatherer, level one. Everyone should have a gatherer.

The rewards for the chocobo racing made it less tedious, however it's the chocobo race itself that is a problem for me. Without a perfect connection (and possibly with it? I don't think I'll ever experience that) the controls lag behind so my steering is off, letting my chocobo rest is off, I have to make wild guesses as to when to jump for a treasure box and when the server is going to believe I pressed that button and all of that lagged interface combined makes it extremely poor gameplay. I would very much like a version of it less tied to the server deciding what my responsiveness is and instead letting my computer decide that, even if it means I'm stuck with pre-made groups or npcs opponents only. Making the carrot bigger is an incentive to get people in temporarily, but making it actually fun keeps them coming back just because they actually enjoy it. (Just my opinion, I know some of you enjoy it as is)
That's not your connection or lag. That's working as designed and would be the same if you had a 0 ping. It's the same as in FFVII. You don't have 100% control over your chocobo. You guide it, but it doesn't always listen, or react immediately. In FFVII, one of the stats affected how quickly/likely the choco was to listen to you. I think there's one in this game too - cunning or something?The rewards for the chocobo racing made it less tedious, however it's the chocobo race itself that is a problem for me.

Yet I've had a chocobo that responds perfectly long before these races existed. Why would they ever think it's a good idea to purposefully simulate the most annoying part of internet gameplay? I already compete for my connection against a family of net hogs, I don't need a lag simulator in game!That's not your connection or lag.
