Yokai-Watch Event: Megathread Guide

[The_Last_Dragoon]

The drop rate is crazy. That's even worse than Atma.

I feel like a broken record, but once again, this is nothing like the pit of despair that was Atma on it's release. The drop rates were in the 1-2% for Atma back then and it was so bad that people were literally saying that you had to farm places at certain times in order to farm for the items effectively.

Just not worth the time to get the weapon that are just skins

Listen, I know you only have one class to 50, but they aren't going to be dropping weapons that are actually viable for in-game progress from an event like this. To a lot of people, these glamours are much more important than the best weapon in the game because these are limited time events with extremely unique skins.

Some areas seem terrible for drop rates

In my time doing this event, I've noticed quite a few dry spells in terms of getting Legendary medals and each time that they get next to unbearable, there is one thing that seems to be evident about the area. It seems that areas with low population may actually have lower drop rates (though this may be exaggerated by the fact that you can't do them as quickly as when you're with a big group). This is why areas like South Shroud, which always has a high population due to the Deep Dungeons being situated there, seems to have a much more stable drop rate even if you're soloing FATEs. Of course, there's still the chance that you are just abyssmally unlucky, and that's the unfortunate side effect of RNG.

Remember that there are a few rules to remember about having your minion out:

1. You cannot have a Companion Chocobo out
2. You must resummon your minion when you log in
3. You must resummon your minion whenever your character dies
