Are you liking squadron missions so far?

It's useless, they said. There are no rewards, they said.


I'm so proud of my little recruits.

Gather 4s are pretty useless other than using them at the materia converter. Do squads give 5s or materials for cosmetics like airships or retainers?

They are far from being optimized regarding Chemistry. They aren't even level 50 yet. What I just got basically comes from the default Chemistry they acquired when leveling up.
So, if they can get me a few hundred thousand gils per day or every other day without me having to do anything, I won't spit on that. Especially not when the feature is two weeks old.

Still looks pretty useless to me only tier 4 which is dirt cheap.

Congrats on your loot, it looks like you are quite pleased with it

For me, I don't craft or gather and the gil obtained would be negligible (I only use gil for repairs and food, and I have enough to last me for quite some time. I gain gil faster than I spend it via retainers).

All of that said, I think the complaints of lack of rewards are fairly small - no? My issue, at least, is that the content is akin to Garrison Missions in WoW which is akin to a Mobile Phone / Facebook game. We're playing MMORPG's, not mobile phones. We're paying $15 a month for quality content, not the equivalent of free time-wasters. I have a difficult time fathoming how anyone who logs in to FFXIV could want to spend any of their time on this content. While I dislike things like crafting, gathering and PvP in FFXIV, I at least understand the appeal. For this content, I'm fairly dumbfounded.

It's ok, just doing it for the eventual crafting-and-gathering-mats-tied to-the-new-GC-rank business.

C'mon, you know they'll do that.
