Well that sucks.

The yellow scrip augmented gear only gives 1196 perception. So I don't see how it is remotely possible for anyone who doesn't have a huge amount of gil to keep up with the crafting and gathering market.

Here is a minimum meld set with the augmented gear. It isn't horrific but does require food.

Scrip gear unfortunately isn't meant to be top-tier gear, but a stepping stone between normal gear and melded gear. 1350 perception is easily reachable with very minimal melds.

An alternative to the above, using only tier IV & V so you don't even have to spend gil on materia, only scrips: http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/1510N

Thanks mine was more just to illustrate it doesn't need expensive melds and how easy it was.

Am I doing something wrong then? I only have 1182 perception, and that's with the full head/body/hands/pants/feet.
