Stop turning in quest items the hard way

[Squintina]

Surprisingly I didn't even think to do this.

I say surprisingly because I spend a lot of time crafting, and that's essentially how I select gear when an actual piece of gear is used as a mat.

So why didn't I think of this for hand ins >.<

I guess because I don't find the hard way to be hard. It's never bothered me. But of course now that I know there's this way, I'll use that one more .

To be fair, this selection method is the DEFAULT selection method while crafting; press the regular action button (X button on Playstations) and it brings up an abbreviated list like the OP demonstrated. The default for quest turn-ins with the action button, on the other hand, is to plunge you into your inventory and make you search for it yourself.

I, too, never realized there was an alternate method using the square button. I'll have to give this a try!

This is amazing information. I play on Gamepad and this will be great.

However, after turning in things the Hard mode way for over a year, my brain will need some reconditioning now. I will have to learn the exact time to stop spamming the confirm button past all the unnecessary text on beastmen turn-ins and hit a timely square for it to actually save me time now.

Is it bad when you get proficient at doing things the hard way to the point where it's quicker than using turn-ins for dummies? Lol.



But seriously, awesome info and thanks once again Bixby.

This game's UI never fails to impress me.

I think it's probably quicker for me to just put my confirm button on rapid fire and select from the inventory for ixali quests. I group them together while riding along on my choco heading back for turn in, and the key items are in the right order if you do Merdonna before CCH.

I've been doing it wrong this whole time...so much time. wasted.

This is exactly what I do lol. The info is good to know for other things, like when patches bring out new fetch quests in the future, but have gotten so damn proficient at those Ixali turn-ins that breaking my process will actually hinder me rather than save me time.

I've done that a few times, too, because OMG shut up Ixali guy. If you end up in the inventory window anyway, you can Cancel once to get back to the Item Request window and do it this way from there. So it's spam X until window changes, Circle Square X X. That's still faster for me because by the time I'm doing these quests my inventory is generally a mess. XD
