So I made Second Lt. a while back, I have finished all the 3 ranked hunting logs for the Flames, but the personnel officer says I have reached the highest rank possible. I see no quests offered at my GC's little section.

Could this be gated behind finishing the MSQ? I'm down to the final 2 8 man trials, but am still curious if this is what is preventing me from going further. ALSO, I see there are "another" kind of ranking for GC (other than a title)... and on the Lodestone, nothing is showing up.

Finally, I seem to have a LOT of company seals... already did get the weapon & shield, the armor pieces are not as good as the Sorcer's gear I now have, so what potential uses are all those seals (could it be that if I CAN go beyond Second Lt. there may be better gear to be had?)?
