    Khloe's Journal

    I am not sure where this kind of post belongs, so I apologize if it's in the wrong place.

    Before I continue, let me explain that I have only just begun shadowbringer's, having slowly progressed thru the msq because the msq is something I do with my spouse and close friend one night a weekend, and only for part of the session as there are other things we also want to do. Needless to say, it takes much longer to get to end game and is not a surprise that I recently gained level 90 in one of my classes. Playing at my pace, it will be some time til I am able to finish Shadowbringers (or even Endwalker).

    That being said, when I now recieve a khloe's journal, more than half of the items listed are duties such as level 80 dungeon, level 90 dungeon, eden this, eden that, etc. All of which are duties I do not have access to at the start of shadowbringers (currently). This has been an issue for weeks.

    Why aren't more of the listed duties in Khloe's journal based on unlocked content??? In regards to Khloe's journal, a player such as myself and in my situation, is basically punished for having a level 90 character and/or not being at end game. At this point, I am lucky if I can complete 4 duties listed in the journal. I even tried logging in and out every day as a lower level class/job, before taking a new journal, and the same issue persists.

    Sigh
    Sorry about the rant, but ugh. I really feel that Khloe's Wonderous needs a bit of a fix in regards to listed duties.

    It seems that the journal can only hold two states of content, and switches when you first get a job to the current level cap (then reverts at the next expansion).

    Before reaching level cap, it's entirely limited to level 60 content and below.

    Once you reach 90, you get access to everything and better prizes, at cost of possibly not having access to the challenge content yet.

    I don't think you have access to gold certificates on the lower setting, so you don't want to delay unlocking the full version, but it's definitely a system that worked fine when the level cap was 70 and okay but not great at 80 and a little frustrating at 90. For a long time on new characters you're either locked to 60 content or having to level a job up to 90 while still in Stormblood to unlock the full version, and I don't like to have to level characters so far ahead of MSQ.

    At absolute least, I would like to see the initial version expanded to cover Stormblood duties as well.

    Side note, to help you complete your journal:

    Use your second chance points. Redo something that's easy for you to complete. You might not be able to minmax it this way but you'll definitely be able to get all 9 stickers.

    Is the journal rank up based on your highest class, or the class you have equipped when you get the book from khloe? Im not sure, so this might be worth testing.

    Otherwise, the advice is just to be diverse in what youre willing to try and use retries as needed. Realistically, most weeks you should still have 5-7 that are either soloable or easily doable with a small group at your level. Be open to PvP(you dont have to win or care, just participate in the highlighted instance), do lower level treasure maps(some still have valuable loot to dig out)/PotD, and unlock/do the lower level optional raids trials and alliances you can. And as annoying as this is for you now, this is the sort of problem that will solve itself as you advance the story and get access to the instances from the 2 most recent expacks.
