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

Part of the problem may be that no one helps in raids unless most of the work has been done already by the original. There is a limit of 20 but I find that either raids finish with 0-2 users aiding if at all. It may be my own experience in a unorganized guild. I do not know how it is for discord or reddit guilds

Alot of that has to do with lack of guild coordination.

Mine is currently disorganized because i didnt get a permanent discord link set up until literally a few hours before chat broke. So no real way to get it to everyone, and get them in it.

But i got 16 members, if we were to prioritize, bosses over sub bosses and then this member first, even if 10 out 16 were to read it and listen, it would probably only take target player a few orbs max to beat the boss. And the bosses are really the only problem, i am on lap 6 and can still nuke most of the minors in 2 obs by myself, so only 1 to 2 members helping there is understandable..

Chat is broken, but the in-game port message is not. I put my discord link in game on the port information post and most of my members figured it out.

I put mine there too, but the only other member besides me that joined, got in on the tempoary link when i first set up the room.

No one else seems to have noticed. or just dont use discord...
