    Remember a Superior Spiritbond potion + Manual if you're doing the Min+Btn relics, might as well stock up extra materia for 5.3 while you're out there.

    I've been doing these at a gradual pace to fill time. The fact you can set them aside in the Glamour Dresser makes it worth doing just to have them ready.

    min was quite easy in comparison bc the nodes freq spawn with +yield, freq 3, sometimes 5, it only took about 2 hours.
    used 300gp +hq skill only, spammed it on the +yield nodes.

    fsh wasn't terrible also, I did it the same day I did min.
    just patience I, precise hook. both fish are single !, so it just a matter of sitting there burning cordials. I think it took about 450 bait for both in total.

    The crafting can easily macro so nbd there.
    I have nothing but venomous seething discontent for this games fishing. I have slowly...swallowed some of that hatered in attempt to level it further

    Note: Taking advice from a players alt, is like taking advice from a voice in a dark room. Criticism is a two way street remember that!!

    I actually found BTN to be easier than MIN since the nodes are so much closer clustering together. I think the procs really depends on luck. The procs for BTN was a lot better than MIN for me.

    Anyway, all Dragonsung tools and all ShB relics done Now I'm just slowly doing Expert Recipes for achievements.

    I like them because these tools won't cost me 3 million gil to pentameld. I mean let's face it- overmelding is very expensive.
    So If I can spend one hour per crafting tool instead of 2-5 million gil per crafting tool, you can bet that's what I'm going to do.

    +6 CP
    +23 Control
    -35 Craftmanship.

    This right here is not worth the hundred failed melding attempts I'd need to get all of my tools overmelded. So from a practical standpoint, the Dragonsung win out.

    I found BTN easier than MIN because I did MIN first and figured out how to best spend my GPs somewhat after I was half done.

    This. Not only could I buy all the relict weapons while I was leveling in Eureka, I also earned enough Poetics for another Anima. It's incredibly how much Poetics you get there.
