Fine Alumen?

[Jeykama]

Anyone gotten any Fine Alumen lately? I know it's considered a "very rare" drop from sectors 4/7/13, but I've been hitting up 7/13 for the past 4 months with 4 airships and nothing really but a metric ton of tincalconite, dravanian motes, and crafter materia to show for it. My airships are 138 Surv/126 Retrieve/150 Favor with low range/speed.

Please give me hope.

I had some airships going out for them off and on a few weeks without any luck. I gave up and went back to materia farming.

Those types of drops have been non existent for me since the mini update between 3.5 and 3.51. All I get is materia and things like bamboo. No crafting materials at all which is strange because I used to get them more often than not.

I also have seen zero and I have been sending my ships out to those various sectors since the patch.

May I humbly suggest a report in the bugs forum so at least SE can look to see that nobody has screwed up an algorithm or something. Unless, of course, the drops had a weird tie to Diadem & because that's offline the materials are too. Shouldn't be the case but who knows how these things are coded!?

Got our first one in about 4 weeks today and from our worst geared/level airship of all things :/

Do you recall which sector it snagged it from?

It could have only have been 4 or 7 as that's all I send the lower tier airship out too sorry I can't remember exactly which if the two it brought it back from in the log.

Alright, was just curious if maybe they moved sectors from what's previously been reported. Apparently still on the usual suspects, just painfully low chances at'em.

Just updating that I switched the route from 7/13 to 4/7, and finally got some Fine Alumen from 4 -_-
