    Collectibles

    So it is really frustrating that there is no way to predict what the collectibles will be in the next 24 hours for crafting. Gathering it doesn't change much but with Crafting it seems like there is always a FotD and even if i crafted 24 of x item it wouldn't be worth a turn in the next time around and could be days before it shows back up thus wasted effort and inventory space. Has anyone figured out a timer or rotation of what the collectibles will be? I am trying to farm yellow/red scrips and I need to gather a bunch before I do it as I have limited time.

    In my experience. There is no pattern.
    The turn ins also seem different for everyone. Or some of them at least.

    In hw. For example I could be there doing chimerical robes at 78 scripts a pop to cap reds for the week chatting in my crafters is. and no one else had them on there daily lists even if they had all 60 crafters as well sat making some 40 scrip items instead.

    Bonuses also seemed to change. One guy would make grimoires cos they were a started item but weren't started for another guy..

    Thats kind of what I thought. It is just infuriating that Crafters get the shaft while gatherers are consistent. I am not talking about the bonus but just predicting which collectible it is. Most crafters I know are self sufficient and like to gather our own mats and so it just sounds like I need to stock up on 999 of everything and roll the dice which one it is.

    From experience both CPR and ALC repeat the items very frequently. When I was still levelling or grinding out Red scrip for materia overmelding. Those two crafter consistently had the same subset of recipes and I never had to wait more a couple of days for them items to repeat. I have made many Beech Composite Bows for scrip exchange.

    I am doing yellow scrips however. Need to farm those alchemics as I sold the other ones I obtained.

    LTW and WVR seem to always have the highest scrips values which is what I personally go for. For yellow scrips at least, get stocked up on Worsted Yarn, Twinthread, Gazelleskin and all the various Reisuis and you'll be ready.

    I'm glad there's actually a rotation at least... right now for crp it has two expensive items to make if you're fully leveled on other crafts (zelkova fishing rod/molybdenum trident). I'm waiting for the Almadine Grinding Wheel to come back. Palladium nuggets are fairly cheap and I can gather the ore and logs without issue.
