There should be other ways to obtain the Field notes.

I agree that the field notes should be made more easily accessible to people.No one has the time nor the desire to sit in front of a screen and mindlessly grind with little to know pay-off. This just irritates the dedicated players.

Not only that, but people are inconsiderate & rush to finish the Skirmishes before others can get to them

In BSF players can get away with that for the most part, since even coming it at around 50% completion can net them gold if they play their cards right. In Zadnor that is not the case. You have to be there at the start, or at least before anyone really attacks, otherwise you won't get much, least of all the field notes. And even if you are...being in a group is an absolute must. I think they tweaked how players get credit in Zadnor a bit, because I can do the same things in BSF with a crowd as a solo tank with Bloodsucker hitting everything, and still walk away with a gold, while in Zadnor I'm lucky to get silver.

i think they should give as the mount as a gift as soon as we enter zadnor. everything else would be a waste of time

The skirmish An End to Atrocities is terrible to get to. If I'm anywhere other then it I usually don't get there in time, if I sit there and try to pop it myself I'm not getting mettle.

This is kind of a problem with Bozja in general.

You're mostly hurting yourself by trying to pop CEs and their related FATEs as they require straight mob kills which offer no rewards other then clusters, but the people who had no hand in doing so don't benefit any less from it once the FATEs/CEs do show up.

I think they should let you build notoriety from killing magitek mobs or something to actually encourage people to spawn CEs instead of just waiting for someone else to do it.

pretty sure that's the entire point of clusters
but rewards are mostly lack cluster later

That one takes a long time to spawn and it takes only a minute to go down. If one is not exactly there, there's very little chance to get there in time. ������

I really like the idea of adding notoriety system for the drop rate, the more you kill the mob, the higher the chance. Let it accumulate over time.
Some form of progress, not just RNG as it is now.

Right now it's 2 hours i am sitting in position just wait for a single fate to spawn (it is not spawnable, it gets on around every 20 mins). It is so stupid because, this invalidate the fact that "i am now keeping the content alive".. i can't even do others fates or CE in the meantime because i risk for the fate to spawn while i am away and that it gets melted in 30 secs T_T

this is just ridicolous

[Val-K]

I have more coins i will ever need and i still don't have Sartauvoir, Lyon part II and Menenius part II. But I will grind many more coins if i'm sure to get the notes at some point. Right now, when i open the chest in Dalriada it's coin only depressing. As for Sartauvoir, i have done cluster farm for hours waiting for the fate to pop for nothing.

Please make them exchangeable with coins.

That's something I noticed right away as well
Zadnor is an absolute pain in the rear to try to get gold for if you get there late. Bozja is certainly more forgiving in that aspect. It's a questionable design choice & I see why so many people dislike Bozja over Eureka now.

I started actually farming the Field notes I needed Saturday, but it was only for the one entire instance time then I took a break like nbd- Come Sunday I spent most of the early morning and late after noon farming the same Skirmishes (Dyunbu #12) and stayed around the area's her skirmishes happen- still no drop, I went back that evening & did another instance, no drop
Yesterday, same scenario- still no drop I also missed 2 Dyunbu skirmishes because people somehow managed to killer her very, very quickly.

It's a job at this point & I just want to be done with it. I don't understand why some of the field note drops have to be so abysmally low. I feel if I've fought her over & over- I'd atleast know enough about her by then to make my own field notes.
I still have #14 & #17 I need to finish as well but I was going to get to it once #12 dropped & I've heard Sartauvoir's & Lyon's notes are even worse unless you do the 1v1
I'd like atleast better drop chances if not another means to obtaining them so my time & others players times doesn't feel so wasted.
