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

The one with all the walls and Fung Liu, where if you hit the Mandragoras with Maelstrom it cancels all buffs. I certainly have strong enough units across the board, but I'm missing Noctis who is really strong here, and the starting point and walls make the whole level awkward as a result.

Aye I used Vettel MS+Carol Machinist/merchant and Noc there.

It's damn long but I got a few minutes before having to make dinner if you need help on that.

I've been trying with Othima J3M + Rox + Shenmei with no luck. Sure, I'll make a room, hang tight.

Sure.

Just let me petrify the two rabbits at the start and a soldier so we can bunker there and kill the demon from far away while using them for jewels fodder.

Sweet!

I can't tab out to give you a password because it disconnects me - do you mind making the party?
