Sortie +2 Earrings Do Not Exist
By Masaru 2024-09-29 05:37:11
Doing sortie from day one, almost every day but not Aminon.
Earring +2: 0
Earring +1: All jobs but BRD, DRK was the last one so long.
I just get rid of all of normal quality earrings: 20x WAR, 36x MNK, 35x WHM, 28x BLM, 21x RDM, 22x THF, 35x PLD, 17x DRK, 28x BST, 35x BRD, 18x RNG, 34x SAM, 17x NIN, 30x DRG, 28x SMN, 24x BLU, 32x COR, 21x PUP, 29x DNC, 25x SCH, 22x GEO and 26x RUN. Still owning 379 unopened old cases and hope for some kind of exchange rate some day...
I don't play WHM, PLD, BST, BRD, SMN and DNC, so I not opened that much of this earings. By the time I got my first +2 earring. It’s for WHM. Thank you SE.

Doing Aminon daily is the best way to hunt for +2 earrings. The rate is still dogshit but having a +1 guaranteed daily is the best you’re gonna get.

it exists i got 1 for sam as my first +2 and i got full aug lol
15 str 15 DEX 20 ACC 20 MACC + 5WSD think it can go up to 6%

+2's are nice to have, but the difference is negligible. Not worth stressing over and concerning yourself with the absolutely atrocious lottery drop/roll combo.
I am of the belief that you don't do sortie for earrings... they are just a byproduct.

FFXI is built upon stressing over a few stat points. Remember paying 100mil for +1 STR at 75 cap lol.

I don't think so. +Stat are directly correlated with +wsd, if you got +15 STR/dex, then it means +5WSD is max and 6% assumption on bgwiki is wrong.

Funniest thing from that time was people saying race doesn't matter, then Taru MNK having like 10 less STR, 12 less VIT and also less MND than Elvaan. Then you saw people was paying fortune for +1STR and you was like wtf... Inb4, but Taru is cute and backflip with Asuran.

I'd be open to having the earrings similar to the empy feet system. 3 +2's for a +2 of your choice {Yes, please.}

I am of the belief that you don't do sortie for earrings... they are just a byproduct. Depends on what job. RNG +2 has nothing comparable to it. SAM +2 has potentially +20 STR and double the WSD on +1 earring. The different is more than negligible to me, but you’re absolutely right about not concerning yourself due to the nature of lottery rolls. If it drops, it drops.

Where do you get a +20 STR SAM earring?

Where do you get a +20 STR SAM earring? I stand corrected, +15 (still fantastic). +20 was the acc/m.acc. My b

Funny +2 story: a long time ago, like close to the beginning, we go in, get a proud 20k run no NM, 2 +1 cases, get out, open those sh1ts up and not 1, not 2 but 3 BLM +2 earring, interestingly enough, 2 other had +1. Gav didn’t have BLM level (did it after because of it). And the only perfect roll I have personally ever seen is one those BLM earring, and you guess it, the alt scored it.

Go buy a lottery ticket and see if that luck continues, cause those odds are staggering two +2 and than both of those were capped...

Yup.
Dear SE: please implement a 3:1 or hell even a 5:1 trade system for +2s.

I finally got one after like 2 years of runs. The last 8-9 months have been 7 days a week too. Before that 4 days a week. The first year or so was 6 boss clears. Rest 8 boss clears.
I got SCH which I didn't care about ?

NGL that much sortie nonstop is actually insane, no idea how you can pull that off, but shout out to all those who can stomach that kind of grind for that long. I can't do a full 7 days straight of sortie without throwing up in my mouth.

We were in the zone waiting to enter and saw you guys popping all those +2s and were amazed.

I have heard so many of these, it's funny.
"Guys, let's all pop our +1 boxes at 11:08 game time"
"Save until you have #, then pop all at once"
"If someone else gets a +2, don't pop yours because the chances to get another is low"
"Pop beginning of conquest reset for higher chance"
"I'll wait for everyone to pop theirs before popping mine"
"Always pop in towns instead of Kamihr Drifts"
The levels of cope we create to justify these terrible drop rates is the real endgame xD

Daily Aminon definitely helps up the +2 rate but it’s still abysmal. I’ve been relatively lucky and have quite a few repeats (2 geo, 2 rng, 2 MNK).
Just finished a run, we were lucky enough to get three +1 old cases. We all popped them. Not one +2 earring. We've been doing Sortie regularly as a static for quite a while and not one +2 earring from +1 cases for at least a month?
Some people from the static think the +2 earring rate was better at first. Thoughts?
