GEO Artifact Armor Storyline Quests

Not sure it's been said. Sekishitsu is a crafted item from relatively easy to obtain materials. The problem is the Lacquer tree log(to make sap), which drops from almost every NM in abyssea-LTP at a low rate.

I totally thought this would happen. It was very suspect that the last update SE would release grasses for a high level cloth synth that made orange threads and cloths that just so happened to be the exact colors as the GEO hat. On a hunch I bought up what I could while another player was stockpiling, and made myself what I could before the update. Looks like I was very lucky, as I can do my set and also give a few threads to linkshell mates. What a pain though, and I'm sure that other dude is cashing in, since he must have bought 50 of the grasses over the past couple weeks.


What's the recipe on this one, if you don't mind?

You can get Lacquer tree log from mog garden as well.

I thought I was getting 3 but forgot to account for Nares legs I was still wearing D:

Ah well, still 1 more tic than from the Pluviale I was currently using.

I think lacquer tree logs drop from a couple different morbol mobs too, like Demonic Roses in Boyahda and Anemone in the jungles.

The recipe for Sekishitsu is honey, vermilion lacquer (which is a 24 alchemy synth, fire crystal/mercury/sulfur), and four lacquer tree saps, with a fire crystal.


I totally just ran outside Adoulin to double check, mortified I'd maybe been seeing things wrong. Don't give me a heart attack like that. D:

So to recap:

Do the 75 cap quest 1st

The first quest for AF is not so bad if you are bringing a bunch of pet jobs. So 3-4 Summoners should be able to take it down in no time. Assuming those Summoners know how to play the jobs, and understand "positioning" your avatars so not all of them are getting insta killed.

Had only minor issues on the final fight as GEO MNK WHM (mule). Low tier nukes with Atinian are silly.

Watched a pld just walk away its a long cast and ended up being cake that way.

.................. This is SILLY EXPENSIVE !!!!!!!!

300,000 g (*Hands) Quest
2,730,000 g (Head)
7,110,000 g (Body)
2,235,000 g (Feet)

TOTAL: 12,375,000 g

This is Just MADNESS >....<

(Hope prices goes down)

Materials always get jacked up in price when stuff first comes out. Farming the acuex ore for the hands quest wasn't too bad in a group. The thread/cloth is the most overpriced of the items atm on Cerberus, so I'm just waiting until they fall to finish the armor.

Much cheaper if you buy mats and find a crafter. It's 300k x 6 = 1.8mil vs buying cloth that costs 3.5 mil...

Or farm the fibers yourself and shout for a crafter.

....like you did? :D

I farmed up 6 for the cloth (the zone isn't that bad nor is the drop rate that terrible), got antsy, and bought the rest 'cause I'm a baller yo :O

Gentlemen, BEHOLD! The fabled Pastel Galka! (In his natural AFK setting)

I just bought all my Akaso stuff. I'm not even ashamed. HELM can suck it.

Did you have full harvesting gear? I bought the bayld harvesting boots and got the bayld sickles(a waste, I know;-;) and was out there for about two hours and all I got were dem moko grasses!

I used my alt and she was equipped with full HELM gear including the bayld feet. I used regular sickles and did a circuit around bivouac #3. Got 5 in 2 1/2 hours (which is probably a bit on the lucky side) and got 3 more the next day in another 2 hours.

That's when I said to hell with this because HELM can indeed suck it.

Also, I never got any akaso on a critical slice so you can definitely save your bayld on that.

Ah, I already bought it, I always critical slice a moko grass, so worth it! But thanks for the advice, I'll try to craft some HELM gear because people are wanting to get ridic on the prices of that!

For the Bell AF and the Legs AF quests...

Do you just have to be GEO and start cut scenes and can then be any job to pop mob?

Ya, just be GEO to pop it, I went for fights as my blm, no issues.
