Gathering Achievements are Miserable - Getting Every Achievement in FFXIV #16

Ойындар

This week in Final Fantasy XIV I decided to take on some gathering achievements! Join in the journey of one Lalafell, one pickaxe, and one hundred minerals. Turns out collecting countless obscure rocks to get achievements is ROUGH, so watch this dumb video to share in the suffering, idiots!

    A friend of mine did the first step and then didn't even realize there *were* other steps for two years. Because the second step has no quest or in-game indication at all, you just have to know to buy a specific item with poetics and click on the furnace. And you can't see the later steps without completing this second step.

    if you use teamcraft, you can actually check off on there what nodes you've completed and then use their timer and route calculator which will give you the shortest route between nodes as well as allow you to set alerts and such to avoid missing nodes. it's super useful and as someone who crafts often and gathers their own mats in addition to working on the gathering log achievements, it's super helpful. good luck on the future fishing hell tho lmao

    I got my burger king crown on 11/11/21, right before EW dropped. I thought to myself "I really wanna get the 2k mentor roulette achievement, I like helping people! I should have this in a year or so". Fast forward to today and I'm just now approaching the halfway mark of 1k mentor roulettes complete. In the time since I naively thought I would have it done quickly I have had and quit jobs, completed a quarter at a very big university, and moved back to the states from Japan...just to be about to move back there for 3+ years next month. I'll get it done eventually, and it is a ton of fun to track each attempt in terms of what kind of instance it is, if we succeed, etc. Just today I "lucked" into Ramuh EX with 6 sprouts and managed to lead them to a kill on the last possible pull (due to timer). Clutch wins like that feel so good and I think that's what the mentor roulette is about. They were fresh as heck sprouts, but they listened well and tried, and by Rhalgr we got the kill.

    Wait until you try to do the actually hard fish in the game. Nami isn't even bad because both fish are straight catches and the only real thing you can do to improve it is surface slap / chum. Compare that to the endgame current whale where I have multiple times spent 9 hours of my life in a day attempting to prep it to even get a shot at it and still failed, and after nearly 2 months and 15+ windows (with typically 4-8 hours prep per window) still never gotten so much as a bite. Also Egg in ShB took me over 5 months of hitting every window, yes even the ones at 3 AM.

Still, I severly underestimated those two - they take forever x.x Also - thanks to your video I checked my Gathering Log and realised I only missed like 10 items for BOTH mining and Gathering! So I quickly did them and now I have two titles I wanted to have for so long! Thank you for igniting that fire in me haha Also - good luck with fishing!! Catching 1.460 unique fish is taxing! I'm only 25 fish away, but all of them are part of Big Fish or the Diadem (IF the Diadem really counts toward that number! It could also be Ocean Fishing.) Good luck on your achievement hunts, and thank you for your weekly videos!!! 🎉

    I think the reason why the every hour timed nodes feels worse than the big 18 hour time gates is BECAUSE it's only like an hour. With the 18 hour ones it's like "Whelp, that's it for today, I'll try again tomorrow" and just kind of forget about it for the rest of the day, but the every hour ones it sticks in your head for the whole time wile you're actively waiting for it to pop again.

But gathering, which I spend much time doing and were my first jobs to 90, I relate to your gathering pain so it's fun! :)

    This is going to sound weird, but the thing I did that was harder than expected was getting an ARR Zeta relic on the free trial. I knew it was going to be hard, I knew the free trial restrictions would make it worse, but I underestimated just how bad it would be. Materia was the biggest blocker - you can't buy it off the market so it all has to be yours. I knew the big materia dump step was coming so I saved literally every piece I got for a couple of months while getting to that step... and then it STILL took another SIX MONTHS to get the rest of the materia I needed. I tried farming for it specifically, but if you've never tried grinding spiritbond at level 60 you don't realize how slow and painful it is. I just settled for continuing to save everything I got naturally. Anyway, after that I thought I was in the clear. But no one told me about the quests that make you craft a bunch of specific items using extremely rare materials. Each one requires a material that you can only get randomly by desynthing specific vendor items that cost like 10k a piece (reminder that you can only hold 300k gil at once on trial), and then a few of them call for materials that can only be found in certain treasure map chests. That step alone took another few months. My achievements for the week: - 100 unique Blacksmith leves and 200 total Tradecraft - FATE rank 3 in Kholusia - 50 Bozja skirmishes, 50 CEs, 500 fragments appraised, and first completion of Delubrum - A handful of the initial Bozja relics since you need to have one at each stage to keep getting all the materials you need

    Getting the achievement "A Card in the Hand" took quite a bit longer than i anticipated. Although you only have to collect the first 312 Triple Triad cards, quite a few of them are absolutely painful to get. A few cards costing me hours of upwards of 100s of matches to win from the NPC. Still, got a cool title and a pretty red card mount from it, so would totally do it again :)

    Imagine actually needing for these nodes on content. To make a full set of high level crafting and gathering tools at endgame often involves doing both the mining and botany cycles dozens of times to get the materials off those nodes. AND you also need mats using the lesser tomestone to actually make them into useful materials. Like I am good at this part and sometimes the actual process makes me want to stop. The x.3 nodes in particular require and excessive amount of stuff from only 2 of the nodes, and often conflicts with another material you also need on the same node.

    Since I've started this game, I've been completing all the content as I've unlocked it. With some exceptions. That being deep dungeons. Probably spent a good few hundred hours thinking it wouldn't be that hard. Ended up getting to floor 194 and calling it quits. I will definitely get back to it. I just want to actually play the game. Almost to Shadowbringers now, and I'm grinding out the Eureka content. Your series here has inspired me to keep up the grind and to continue to enjoy every part of this game.

    My most recent achievement that was rather painful was completing the Sightseeing Log. I started FFXIV in Shadowbringers and thought, "Oh, you just look for orbs - easy enough." Meanwhile, ARR and other previous Sightseeing spots were maniacally laughing at my ignorance. Timed spots, no orbs, AND weird climbs/jumping off ledges/etc. All for sepia filtered paintings. . . edit: And that's not even mentioning Kugane Tower.

    You said at one point that you could max your crafters in like a week so a couple weeks ago I decided "fuck it" and got into Crafting from scratch. I now have 70 Crafters and 75 in the Gatherers and I'm officially taking a break from it because it has consumed my every waking moment playing 14 since I started the grind.

    Coincidently, this week I also decided to work on my gathering logs. Now I really dig gathering. I dig it so much that I actually had most of the items in the logs and got both "I Found That: Miner VIII" and "I Found That: Botanist VIII". It got annoying at the end because a few collectibles are sublime, which you can only get by finding specific timed nodes, getting a specific collectable to 1000 collectability, and then you MIGHT get a special version of it based on your stats. All in all, it was a very productive week. I got my last Resplendent tool as well as a couple of relic weapons, but the high point for me was finally getting "You're Tearing Me Apart II", obtained from desynthesizing 10000 items. An entire tab complete. See you all next week!

    Heavensward zones look great, but many are poorly designed in terms of traversal. It was the first expansion to have flying so they went “lets make the distance you have to travel for some things egregiously far” Just a note about self repairs: the great thing about self repairs is you only have to be ten levels below cap to repair max level gear. EX: you only need to be level 80 on one crafter to repair lvl 90 gear. So that means if you capped a crafter in Endwalker you’ll already be able to repair max level gear in Dawntrail.

    Sometimes when gathering, you can force a hidden item to appear by proc-ing "Luck of the Mountaineer" for miner or the equivalent for botanist. It's how I always get an Ophiotauroskin map on the first node! If there are multiple hidden items tho, sometimes the wrong one appears than the one you're looking for. Also doesn't work if your percept is below the breakpoint. Also seeing you throw away that Rhodanite and Titanium made me cri :C Crafting modified sub parts rn and they're greedy for Rhodanite and Titanium

    The reason why Talan sells soo many pies is because it was a consistent way to get Fieldcraft Demimateria III back in ARR. You'd just have to buy a ton and desynth. There was no crafting or gathering scrips to buy demimateria with, so it was a rough RNG struggle to get any.
