Retainer ventures we need to talk.

[Wobble]

I mostly do 18 hour ventures and it keeps bringing back the logs to upgrade the first AF tool.

It would be really awesome if they displayed a hq item chance, like they do with crafting and gathering, or at least display your estimated chance somewhere in the retainers stats. 2 more ventures done, 1 gave me a tin piece and the other a Mythril Elmo..

So I reset my retainers at the start of heavensward because I didn't want to level my own classes that they were. So i just finally got to 60 like 10 mins ago. There's no level 60 18 hour venture? It still only goes to the level 55 one. Is there even anything special in the level 55 ones? I only have a level 60 Lancer retainer for now. Still leveling my miner one.

Miner can bring back a steel mainspring for clockwork burrow minion. I am not sure about the others.

My Archer and White Mage are very profitable. I have mine always go hunt for materials and then sell them...you need to pay more attention and not just do one thing. My miners also make me a ton of money.

Yea my retainers been busy. Saves me ton of time. I reset just after HW on one cuz i didnt wanna level the class and just hit 50 but its gonna beat farming skins.

I just wish the 18 hour ventures had a higher chance for the special items since it is just a once a day chance. It is pretty annoying to be unable to make the gobwalker minion since my botany retainer refuses to bring me Floss silk to make the stuffed goblin it needs.

My FSH brought me gestahl

My level 60 archer brings me back clams, all kinds of cheap fish, an occassional ink and quill, Ezorea map and kelp. She's level 60 and i145. I wonder if all the different levels are set to bring back different things or are they set to bring back the same things. I haven't seen a minion since they first came out. My miner has this thing for bringing me back rocks for the first weapon upgrade although she's level 57 and her gathering is fine. This is for 18 hour and quick explorations.

So I send them out to do my hunting and gathering. Gave up on seeing anything rare even though I see the message that my gear is good enough for rare items.

Oh well, wonder if SE forgot about them as well. I've noticed that a lot of things that were put in during 2.x have been neglected or just forgotten about.

My CNJ retainer is i180 and my ACN retainer is i135.

My CNJ often brings me back fish and roofs, while my ACN likes to bring back PvP gear and NQ level 50 crafted gear.

RNGesus has a sense of humor.

[EDIT] ... I should probably start doing Expert on my SMN and get my poor ACN retainer some level 60 gear...
