So Frontlines is a lot of fun and since the patch I can actually queue pretty quickly. Most runs have been around 15 min and the rewards seem pretty decent. I'm also glad that there are new challenge log bonuses for PvP to help w/ ranking up.

Tonight I learned something else cool, you can get cheap pieces of gear for desynthesis from running Frontlines repeatedly.

If you want to level desynthesis for BSM you don't have a lot of good options, but the PLD weapon is only 900ish seals so that's about 2 runs. You won't level BSM desynth super fast (but what other CHEAP way will?) and you can actually make a great deal of gil.

Tonight I desynthed 2 Battlecraft 3 demimateria after 6 attempts and made over 300k, not to mention about 300 myth and a PvP rank up. I'm just saying there's some legit fun, productive stuff to do that doesn't involve raiding. Thanks, SE!
