    Problem regarding farming dungeons

    Hello everyone I hope you can help with something that got my attention 2 days ago. Recently I got to level 50 with my White Mage, (first character ever by the way) and I was reading some guides saying that I can farm 100 Allagan Tomestones of Philosophy in Castrum Meridianum and also The Praetorium to purchase some gear. However I only get certain amount of stones when I use the duty finder roulette once per day after that if I do the dungeons again I do not receive the 100 stones that the guides are telling me that I can farm all day long. Am I doing something wrong? or is that I can only farm those dungeons once per day. Also let me know if those guides maybe are outdated because I want to gear up my White Mage as fast as I can, thanks in advanced.

    The guides are outdated. Philosophy isn't in the game anymore, it was removed in patch 2.2. I'm not really sure of the fastest way to gear up a fresh L50, but Crystal Tower drops i80 pieces and 100 myth a run, and as a healer you queue times should be decent. Do your dailies and few runs of that till you have the ilevel for Coil 1-5, which has a chance at i90 gear. The myth you are earning can also be turned in for i90 gear.

    philosophy are no longer in the game, your guide is outdated

    also the -bonus- is once a day, the non-bonus stuff can be farmed all day long

    Thank you for the fast response, yeah that's what I thought , It was too good to be true to do the same dungeon all day and get all the gear the same day. I just purchased an item lvl 90 yesterday and also got my relic weapon yesterday as well, yeah I dont have to wait at all coz I'm a healer. Again thanks for the fast response.

    Thanks also for the info sheepysheepy, I don't know why I cannot find an updated guide but I will continue with the daily roulette. Again thanks for the info and I love this game and the community really friendly. Have a nice day.

    the game changes with every patch so it's pretty pointless to try and keep a guide updated.

    I ended up buying 2 or 3 pieces of gear with currency I farmed doing the low level roulette for a bit, along with breast tribe dailies.

    I found main scenario roulette both takes too long (for my liking) and the queue is generally long as well. Just 2 more dungeons and I'll get access to the high level roulette.

    (I've noticed that the roulette is MUCH quicker than choosing to queue for a dungeon directly, so I've been hoping the 2 I need for GC rank up and the level 50 story crop up as one of my random low levels soon)
