See, I'm running BA pretty consistently because I have so much fun with it! I'm doing at least 3 days a week at this point. At this point, I'm drowning in Hydatos crystals...

I'm glad you enjoy it!

I'm really hoping we get a similar experience in the "new" eureka. Early BA had legit stress in it, since you couldn't trust 85% of the people around you to do accel bombs or meteors, even in "clear" groups. I was even nervous doing Raiden because like what if we got far enough in his pattern to have to do multiple mechanics at once oh gosh.

Also, people didn't have all the elemental gear/physeos weapons, so enrages actually happened all the time. it was a great time to be alive. It used to be a legit strat to wait until the BA timer was between 8:30 and 10 minutes before pulling AV, so that if you failed enrage everyone would die, get kicked out, and people could be rezzed without losing exp

I have like 9 weapons ready to start the hydatos grind, and i just don't feel like doing it. To do it efficiently you gotta be on when people are running BA for those sweet sweet support fate crystals, and i'm too lazy to check if runs are ever going

which is also why i stop before physeos, since meh running BA 4 times per weapon

zero when flying, which you'll have in every zone in about a month

on the ground though, its a pretty substantial increase. I bought all of them when i started hunting, and it was so worth it.

i saw screenshots of a discord for some of those people who sell clears for $$$, they had a group of like 30 people getting together to vote on what strats they'd all agree to use to clear the fights so they could hotswap out who teams with who. The fact micro-societies form and are profitable for this are kinda amazing to me.

i can't imagine buying a clear (especially with real money), i'd rather just not clear

what else am i going to spend all my eureka gil on

its not even that expensive! I've leveled like 6 crafters for like.. 4 mil? maybe 5 or 6 idk but it isn't much

---

Now with more bold! Less Italics due to bold

how I've been leveling my crafters:

Levequests from 0-50, along with random GC turnins. I buy everything HQ off the marketboard.

Large scale levequests from 50-70. I buy everything HQ off the marketboard.

After 70, I use my level 80 crafter to make all the custom deliveries requested of the week. You can then turn these in as the class you want to level. For all custom delivery guys but Kai-Shir (and even half of what Kai-Shir wants), you can just trained eye + finish any custom delivery.

Another thing you can do to sprinkle in extra exp is to do beast tribes. (Ixal, Moogles, and Namazu). I believe you can do these as one crafter and turn in as another; but they may have blocked that from HW on.

I was going to apply for a credit card at my own bank this year but then after COVID-19 happened I sort of forgot about it. In theory my bank should at least know that I have a monthly income and that I'm paying bills every month and that I have enough money saved with them that they could collect on even if I did attempt to screw them over.

It might be there are some cards they would have given me, for the record. I'd avoided the absolute bottom of the barrel cards aimed at people who had defaulted on loans, since I've never done anything like that, but maybe the companies view people without much credit history as being in the same boat.

fyi since i was in this boat pretty recently - I got a credit card through my bank, and my limit was 500 dollars. It was almost more hassle to try and use it for certain purchases to keep that 'ideal' debt ratio or whatever. I ended up just ignoring that I had it.

I don't have a good solution for you unfortunately, I was forced into solving the problem when my car broke down at site one day (it was an hour tow back to civilization), and when looking at the cost to repair my car, it didn't make economic sense so I bought a new car. After a few months of payments on that, I got an airline card with an absurd limit and I've been good since.

if you didn't notice (or got the same alliance twice), the second boss actually has different mechanics depending on which alliance (A, B, or C) you get. I liked that touch

^ is entirely correct. Queue at your own convenience, the only reason I would recommend sooner is because it will open up an alliance raid roulette, which can be used as another source of EXP every day if you want to level more jobs.

Dantezoid entered a fun entry and picked the top entry for every single match. Dantezoid has a score of 275. There are only 502 entries with a higher score atm

all but 502 brackets would have been better off by using no strategy and just picking the top option every match!
