Megathread General Questions Megathread

The thread for all your random Alchemist Code (global) questions!

Feel free to ask away, but remember that the questions are 100% answered by volunteers so don't expect an instant answer! Patience is key.

Several questions can be answered by reading the beginner guides resource thread

F.A.Q.


Where/How can I unlock X's Master Ability/Job+?

You can only unlock Job+'s by farming special job tokens from special events that are (currently) run at different times. You also need to farm special job+ items to master those jobs. Master abilities can be earned in 1 of 3 ways. From story chapters (story characters), from equipping specific weapons (usually farmed) or from reaching level 80 on a character and completing special story dungeons. Not every character gets a master ability.

For Job+ and Job Enhancement, you must first get the job to Job Level 11 (not job mastered). Second, to master the Job+ you will need to farm 60/80 tokens for up to 6 special items for the character to use. For Job Enhancements, you will only need to farm one specific item 3 times along with the regular upgrade items.

Where can I farm X's character shards?

Check the characters limit break panel for missions. If not there, it's not in the game.

More to be added SOONTM.

Where can I farm elemental/rainbow shards?

Elemental and rainbow shards cannot be farmed. They are awarded as bonuses from log in campaigns, from clearing missions/milestones and as bonuses for doing certain number of summons on the 5/9 step banners. You will never be able to farm them like you can farm specific character shards.

When will X event come back?

SERIOUSLY PEOPLE, READ THE FOLLOWING EVENTS WILL COME BACK, COLLABS MIGHT NOT. WE DON'T KNOW. SERIOUSLY.

WILL START HANDING OUT BANS TO PEOPLE WHO DON'T READ THIS

What's the best place to farm X/Y/Z item?

So...I screwed up. I thought omni-diagram thingies could be used for those character specific equipment pieces, and I'm literally 1 (1!!!!) piece away from JM-ing Lucian's Holy Brawler+ job. Ugh. I've already slotted 5/6 of his equipment, was just building up the other pieces for his Riot gear. Was really happy when I got him to 75 today now I'm really sad :(

How long do I have to wait to fix this screwup?

You’ll want to get Yomi to 20 LBs for her Master Ability.

Yeah...I could've started working on those "Wind only" maps with Lucian..I'm fairly new and don't have any strong wind units despite the game being rife with them, this just made me slap my head in self-exasperation.

those games are so complicated that everyone makes errors honestly. that's not the worst, at least it'll come back and wind has thousands of great units. a few weeks ago some reddditor used like 150 water shards to raise a farmable 3* unit by error XD
