and FATE suggestion is just ridiculous since it's worse drop than Atma. Which dungeon would it be a good way to earn a lot of Solidery? I know that I've started doing daily Expert quest that gives me the map, but it feels like it's going slow as of right now.
I'd exactly need at least 25,000~30,000 solidery to complete 75 Alexandrites - and 400 solidery is needed to buy a map along with the daily I am doing frequently.Â
I am willing to accept any suggestions, and I also will need 1600 Solidery each for Zodiac anyways.
(I am a DPS as Mizuho so it's a lot harder for me to queue easily than tanks/healers).
Doing your daily roulettes (as much as you can on a given day, but at least do the expert for the quest) and maybe ST every other day (you can get sands/oils and ST gear for your other jobs!) will help you get the soldiery you need to buy maps inbetween.
Do your weekly hunt, and hunt around for hunting groups on the weekends. It's a lot less dead on the weekends, and if you keep an eye out for people calling S ranks, you can make the 200 Allied Seals for an Alexandrite piece easily enough. This method is really more of an occasional buffer so that you get that extra -one- Alexandrite sometimes.
If there's reason for you to do a FATE, do it! Don't FATE grind by any means, but if it won't harm you to do a FATE that's nearby, go smash it! You never know, you might get lucky...
All in all, it's really a matter of persistence and patience. You'll get there! I'm at 63/75 myself, with a buffer of 5 maps (one in my key items pocket and four on my retainers), so I'm MOUTFROTHING right about now.Â
You can do it!
