How to Get the Best Weapon and Armor

[Vyrerus]

Id like to ask what do you do with the best weapons?

Farm extremes more quickly for mounts and mount achievements.

You realize you're basically the embodiment of the NA/EU mindset and opposite of the JP mindset, who are only able to queue for endgame content in DF because it's their culture to do their best to contribute to the team before queuing, where NA/EU can't use the DF because it's our culture to feel entitled to carries and do nothing for the team if we find it fun, thus rendering many endgame DF runs impossible to clear. So JP are actually the "tryhards" as you like to put it and the people setting ilv requirements over here are the handful with the JP mindset of trying to ensure team contribution. JP won't be openly toxic, but actually keep public blacklists for players like yourself who join without preparation and drag a group down but don't care. Just saying

Stop using logic here your elitism is showing here.

Yikes, of course tryhards will falsely inflate ilvl requirements because god forbid you have to do an encounter normally, let's hope there's some decent people around so new players can get into content they want to try without suffering such elitists.

God forbid you have to make your own pf with your own rules right? But nah, easier to just whine about the requirements other groups set.

Buy you can literally get 510 in 5mins. Crafted gear has been pretty cheap on the MB for some time now.

Expecting new players who just have reached 80 in the game to have enough gil and know you can buy a full 510 set is silly.
And new players are not gonna have a month of tomes of revelation for those 520s either


Honestly since I learned how NA/EU players behave I feel happy I am in Australia and can play in JP where you even que with DF for extremes.

Huh?

510 is the lowest ilvl you should be using in savage right now. Period. If you don't have 510 gear, run the normal raids to get it. Not hard.

Also you don't even raid..

On the contrary, they actually do. It’s called Troll (Savage).

It's true, just because they're polite, doesn't mean they don't hate people that want carries.

It's not elitist to set in a party finder created group of random people a higher ilvl as an offset to make the kill easier.

Considering our friend is new with a fresh 80 SAM to begin with. He'll be looking for practice runs or a Static to work with.

@OP - Honestly, I would get into that content later. For now, I'd be doing the Resistance Relic (which for SAM looks insane anyway). Do Bozja and get the first set of gear for 495, then move upto Law's Order (510?), while aiming for Cryptlurker, or Chrystarium as they come through doing content or daily roulettes.

You can totally buy the crafted for 510, as you did. But then you have no money, either way, you'll figure it out.

I feel like its worth mentioning that you can simply not do savage or extreme trials and miss nothing. There is no more story added to them and there is no other content in which the gear you gain will be necessary or even give you a distinct advantage. The gear will help you with further savage or extreme clears, but other content is quite easily done with just tome gear and the relic weapons of the current expansion.
