Need Help on How to Gather Yellow Scripts

[Zeich]

So you've touched upon collectables in another thread, though you were looking at gathering collectables. When turning those in, you get Yellow Gatherer's Scrips and, at level 80 with the proper turnins, White Gatherer's Scrips.

However, when it comes to Yellow/White Crafter's Scrips, you get it by making collectable crafts and then turning them in. As I recall, the first opportunity to do that is in Revenant's Toll. Collectable Crafts are much like normal crafts, except that you're replacing the odds of a "High Quality" chance with "Collectability" instead. By creating items of a certain collectability, you can turn them in for Scrips and EXP, with more being awarded at certain tiers. For example, at level 50 Blacksmith, you can make a Rarified Mythrite Katzbalger; At 110-159 Collectability (Which translates to 1100-1590 Quality, but you can see Collectability as you craft), you'd get X amount of scrips. At 160-199 (1600-1990 Quality) you'd get a higher amount. I'd give specifics but I think the rewards get nerfed hard if you're way above the level and I'm level 80 in all crafts. XD; It shows nothing but 7/7/8 scrips and 10k exp on each tier.

These recipes, btw, can be found under Special Recipes -> Collectables in your Crafting Log. They start at level 50, and there are new ones available every 2 levels for better rewards.

Now that that part's aside, explaining what's going on with Zhloe - what you've unlocked is called Custom Deliveries, a weekly turn-in where you can give them the items they request for scrips, exp, and gil. There are several NPCs that have this, starting with Zhloe, and they offer options for craftsmen, fishers, and the other gatherers. The crafted ones are as easy as buying the items from the NPCs not far off (in this case, Idyllshire has merchants in the scrips plaza nearby that sells the materials) and then making the collectable, rewarding you based on how high the collectability is. The gathering ones are simply gathered or fished up.

Edit: These recipes are found under Special Recipes -> Custom Deliveries. Almost forgot to mention that!

Edit 2: d'oh, I type faster than I read. What you're looking for from the merchants is the Scrap Salvager - the item you need for Custom Deliveries is under Purchase Items I - You can either buy Near Eastern Antique Component Materials and craft them into Eastern Antique Components -> Near Eastern Antiques, or you can just straight-up buy the components and make the antiques. It's slightly more expensive to skip straight to the components, but it's really only 100 gil each. I'd save yourself a crafting step and just buy the components. XD

As for White Scrips - they're like Yellow Scrips, except used for high-end crafts. There used to be Red and Blue in the past, but now we have Yellow and White. Think of them like tomestones, getting cycled out as new ones are introduced. White Scrips are just the level 80 stuff, while yellow is used for everything before.

Hopefully this answers your questions!
