Bomb Ash!

[Okiura]

And FYI Okiura, steel ingots start in the mid-20's, but you don't start using them on the new recipes as a mainstay until your 30's. You missed MY point!

lol touché, your right about that, i was looking for mobs that were the same lvl new steel recipes started (the ingots), the bombs posted earlier are low 20's and drop ash upto 4 at a time. i assumed you were talking about old steel recipes recipes (like nuggets to needles), my bad.

FYI, if you think bomb ash is bad, try getting your hands on some aldgoat horns for any reason.

Aldgoat horns are easy to get, there is a new camp south of Horizon that has a ton of nannies and billys, you can TP off the nannies and Concussive Blow II the billies. I did it on Conjurer and 2 ws's would knock off the horns. They can drop up to 2 and it's pretty common.

There's a few synths in the 20s that require Antelope Horns ( http://lodestone.finalfantasyxiv.com...assId=&rankId= ), but there are no stags until around 40-50+. There's plenty of Antelope Does around Camp Tranquil, but they do not drop horns.

There are plenty of White Stag lvl 29-35 now in Gridania. Forgot where exactly, but I think on the way around Humblehearth.

although we could use old recipes they will be phased out so that is less then ideal, also what's the point in making the older dated items.

I'm trying to highlight the fact a group of mobs seem to be missing. not where you can get it from as an alterntive or alterntive ways to skill up.

Dated Item is still plenty good to make Materia. They only introduced half of the new recipes, there will be more once they removed the old (otherwise there would be no high level Jewelry nor Food/Potion). Mobs dispositions have changed a lot, you can find many types of mobs that were high level now in low level area and being lower levels too. Just go out and find them.

your right, also i'm sure i passed some around tranqil while doing one of the quests for the personal chocobo think they may even be lower again.

missing the point a bit on this one, i know the old recipes are still there and are still useful for now but they won't be there forever so i'm trying to highlight this issue before it gets to the point where BSM's and ARM's are stuk in the low 20's

I have looked spent and 2 days looking other then the L30 ones in Nana and a few others scattered around there is no group of L20 mobs that apper to drop Bomb ash. all i trying to do is highlight this issue. If they exist and i haven't found them so be it if not then there is a problem with obtaining this item.

Thankyou this is Exactly what i was looking for... i'm doing locals in LL atm but i will check this out shortly.

Edit: This is it that is the mobs they added for farming i knew they didn't intend for the only source of Ash to be the L30 Quest mobs in Nana cos that's just retarded. thank you so much for this nice to get a sensible answer to my query.

Not everyone missed the point Kala. But seeing as the patch has been out a week, and only about 15% of the actual playerbase posts, most of us were just trying to provide alternatives to previously known spawn points. Reinhart posted about the Duds, but most everyone has been playing catch-up, so there's no way the OP was going to get an instant response.
