You guys are complaining about totem drop rate?!

Hah, I say unto you, HAH!

Try 270-300 company leves if you want your full sergeant set. That's right. ~300 leve allowances are needed to get enough seals to get the full set. There are 6 pieces, each one 5000 seals, so 30,000.

At ~100 per leve, well, you can do the math. Also, it is worth mentioning that the gear isn't even all that great. But if you want the full set for purposes of finally feeling a smidgen of lore and being truly involved with your nation of choice, that's the price to pay.

Stop complaining!

You can do the quests that give you GC Seals as well, so it shouldn't be that much. :x

Just sayin'

Those are spent on your chocobo and promotions. After all that and doing the quests/dungeons, I was left with 2000. Guesstimate there, actually.

Going into some more details here,
Until you're a petty officer, you're limited to ~100 seals per 15 minutes.
After that, you have ~%50 chance to get a new leve that you can finish in about 5 that also gives ~100 seals.

So a rough estimate here, once you're a petty officer, you can make about 500-600 seals/hour on average if you really put your all into it. Then you have to wait for leve allowances to replenish.

That's 10 hours for ~5500 seals.
40 hours for 22,000 seals.
~55 hours for 30,000.
I'll remind again, there's also the cooldown for leve allowances.

To give a comparison, it took me ~30 hours to get from 1 to 50 legitimately.

Yes thats right stop complaining about sub par levels of content and mediocre design choices that are likely to lead this game to complete failure. (again)

A linkshell mate of mine got 15000 seals from trading in Black Ghosts and Iron Scutums (i think), and doing a few hours worth of Company leves @ Halatali. The 15 minute ones suck, but some can be completed + handed in in 5mins... They are under random generators like everything else in this game. ><

Like you said the gear isn't all that, he just bought the Flame Sergeants Sash, 2 crafter rings, and the +18 craftsmanship pants.

Yeah, I've been checking and checking those supply/provisioning missions every time they refresh to see if I have/can make something they're asking for. No luck so far.

Did you know that if you got a full party of people from your company to work on the L40 Caravan events, you can get 160-260 seals every run? Time goes by faster as well when you've got company.

Yup rite here. We made a LS just for this and we get (most of the time) 240 seals in 8 mins, and the next run at the most is rdy to go in about 1-2 mins sometimes soon as we get there.

[HiirNoivl]

2500 seals per hour for me. I like supply/prov

[Isaveron]

I really don't understand this logic. So because another part of the game is an even bigger grind, we shouldn't be upset over totem drop rates?
