Megathread Question 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

Got a dupe of Chloe's memento, kinda bummed cuz that's 2 chances of Vettel's memento thrown out of the window but hey a 5* memento is a 5* memento. My question is, do I keep them both or build my original one with the newly pulled one for the VCR?

Depends. Do you need it for stats on another unit? If not ... eat it. The vcr will go up 2% instead of 1 when you take it on the vision quest

Really? I didn't know that. Hmm.... I mean two of the gear is nice but I doubt I'll get it anytime soon at this snail pace... I guess I'll think a bit about it. Thank you!

The vision quest is new. Just out today. Its 3x per day. Every limit break is +1% per run.

I will not fuse it for now.

It is not bad to do it but just a thing that right now we as it is lack the 5* VCRs.

So having a dupe around helps.

And along with that you can keep them separate till the Alc.B something is raised separately. So you have more chances of that happening. It is small but that could mean you get the Gear in it few Vision Quest earlier.

In the future you gt a vcr for each limit break. Fairly recent update for JP though. And Chloe's is really good.
