What am i doing wrong in the Ixal quests?

But its such a better idea to make a post complaining for no reason because "it's hard for me".

Feedback, please don't try to stop it, even if you disagree with it.

I also find it nice that they can be turned in on low level classes, but the recommended level was not put there for alts, they are supposed to be doable at that level and these quests are not fulfilling this. Sure, people can do low rank crafts in the meantime, but doesn't mean this should be overlooked.

what a lot of people are doing and not realizing is when you turn in all the quests to the npc that gives the crafting buff, you should only do 1 at a time because the debuffs stack.

I think I used Waste Not/Waste Not II and this became a lot easier actually.

Hey guys I just unlocked these quests and wanted to know if my lvl18 CUL is high enough to so the higher ranked quests, and if not, how high should I get it?

[Pibble]

Rydai, You could prolly do up the rank 4 quests pretty easily.

Hmm I started on my ALC at level 6, it's now lvl 38 and I just reached rank 6 rep yesterday. Granted, Tricks of the Trade (lvl15) is probably the only way I was able to successfully craft most of the HQ components needed without running out of CP.

I also use the provisioning GC missions to boost exp too, by turning in HQ items when they are available, but I've only recently started doing this.

Either way I think you'll be more than fine.

Ah thanks guys

Err...No! You get 6 allowances per day. You may be forgetting that "Deliverance" takes one allowance, but if you're only doing the quests for okanots, there is no reason to do that one.

Yup, you're right. I was sort of wondering where that allowance went. I remember doing 3 quests per beast tribe (for 2 tribes) before. Thanks.

As much as "High Wind in Ishgard" completely sucks for most people, I think it should be left as it is. The Ixali quests in general are VERY generous with the amount of crafting exp they give, at no real cost to the player except some time, and teleport fees. Rank 6 are the highest dailies you'll unlock and if only 1 of them presents any real challenge, that's ok. I mean, at least we still get exp every time we craft it, HQ or not, and there's unlimited free materials, so success is guaranteed for the tenacious.

Okay, well I just got "High Wind in Ishgard" today for the first time.. and eff that mess. Could only get on average up to about 8% quality. Twice I managed to get crits that put me up to 17% once and 60something% a second time. Still didn't make a single HQ, but did make like 25 NQ. The other 2 rank 6 quests I did weren't easy by any means, but they weren't this level of difficulty either and I was able to make the HQs needed within a handful of tries (or two handfuls at most).

So basically from now on, I'll be skipping this quest altogether. It's just not worth the hassle.
