    By this point in the game you don't even need to watch mechanics, really. The amount of DPS an 8-man party can put out will usually end the instance in under 4 minutes, so you won't even get to see any of the major mechanics. Just go in there and DPS hard and you'll be fine.

    For farming A9S, though, yeah, you'll probably need to watch some guides.

    Not to hijack, but does anyone know if you can gather light while on other jobs? Like, can I queue my healer while gathering for a DPS anima weapon?

    No, it's like Nexus and Zodiac lights. weapon must be equipped at duty end.

    A1S average 3-4 min a run including re-queues when I did my War axe. PF is the way to go, and just wait til bonus windows for fastest results.

    Thing about A1S is queues might not be as fast anymore. When light farming first came out, queues were pretty quick. Now I'm doing it again and it was like 15-20 minutes queue for A1S.

    our Datacenter pretty much always has a1s light farming parties in PF.........if theres none, make one,it will most likely fill up.

    I'm not sure if this is a thing of japanese servers, but A10S has been the way to go for me, is a quick fight, there I've hardly ever got a wiping group there and the reward is hardened by default

    You need to have the weapon equipped, otherwise no light. Also, it will be the quickest with a PF group. At least on my server, they are going all the time. Sometimes you get some bonus light, this is random and the bonus sticks for a couple of hours. So keep an eye out on the tracker to spam it when it gives more. I am on that stage too, but don't have nearly enough time to properly grind it. My boyfriend did it in a day. Good luck! : 3

    A1S has been the go to farm method as mentioned, but with 15% echo now, A9 and A10 Savage are both relatively painless fights that can speed up the process substantially. Keep an eye on this reddit page for when to hop into things: https://www.reddit.com/live/yaa1fmwibvkl
