Make A Mythic In 1 Day Challenge!

Overall, the Alexandrite is what's going to hold up everyone (again). Sure, you can do all 4 zones once per real life day, but I seriously doubt the majority of players are going to do this on a strict and continuous (daily) basis.

There is not enough time in a 72 hour period to get everything done, even if you started with enough gil for 30,000 alexandrite. Running Einherjar every hour on the hour wouldn't get you to 100,000. Hell, just FINDING 30,000 ALEXANDRITE TO BUY would take more than 3 days.

You guys really need to get off this nonsense.

People just need to be a bit more realistic, a mythic in a week would still take a lot of dedicated work, while giving yourself the luxury to take a break, eat and go to sleep.

I thought only AR is restricted to the once-per-day rules.

So far as I know, after the dust settled from the version update changes, it was discovered that Salvage wasn't actually repeatable after a 1 hour cool-down, but rather it was each Remnant zone once per real life day.

Is this not the case? Perhaps it's wrong, but I had several LS mates swear to the current changes mentioned above.

Only Arrapago is subjected to that lockout indeed.
Unless they changed things in the last couple of days that is.

I've been spamming some back to back Bhaflau myself a couple of days ago when the update was just implemented.

You've done the other zones more than once in a day since the version update?

Have you done more than 3 Bhaf Remnants in a single day? It was obviously possible to hold a Remnant Permit to do a zone twice, but if you've done it 3+ times then that debunks what I was told.

Yesterday I did ARII once, Bhaflau Remnants 4 times, and SSR 3 times. It's most definitely not once per zone per RL day (except ARII - you can still only do that one once per RL day)

Praise be to Yevon!

I'm happy to hear I've been incorrectly slandered! Thanks for confirming.

You can do BR2 30 times in a single sitting. Can get new permit every hour. I would not recommend this but I didn't puke as I originally expected. If sat down for 24hours and did 24 runs you could expect to get around 3,250, maybe a little more if you got lucky on multiple linen or cotton NMs were good to you.

Anyone who praises Yevon is a no good son of a shoopuff.

Keeping on the main topic however, I think we can say that the myth of making a Mythic from scratch in a single day is:

Can't say that, we didn't use limited testing on a specific question using unscientific methods.

hush^

It is confirmed that you CAN enter Salvage I zones more than once per day, but Salvage II only once. I am assuming since the "dupe" bans, they cracked down on re-entering the zone if you still had a remnants permit from the previous day that you didn't use.

That being said, I think it is virtually impossible to start and finish a Mythic from scratch in one day or even one weekend WITHOUT buying Alex. It's just not feasible when you take into consideration everything else you need. The Alexandrite challenge IS possible if you buy them. I agree that the price WILL go down...it will be a matter of time though.

Those are my two cents on this topic.

If you're going to do this, all the more power to you, but I think you can feasibly get one done in a month or two.

Now we're back to square one.

>_>

So the zones people are spamming are Salvage I then.

Actually, nevermind. Rabies said he's spammed BR II, so I'm going with that.

How confirmed? We have conflicting reports here, one person said that they spammed BRII, one said only Salvage I confirmed.

Can we get some real answers here instead of guesses?

It can't be done because FFXI died in 2009 !

I got an idea go try it for yourself! Then you will in fact know for sure whether you can or not.

Why would you want to make a mythic the game is going to end soon anyways ?

From scratch I mean. Not if you are already working on one.

That means resubbing! I don't want to resub!

Fair enough.

I don't understand why people keep saying this.

The game isn't ending. Updates are being stopped after November, yes, but that doesn't mean the game is ending. As long as people find things to do, there will always be things to do.

So until SE says "On x date, we will be discontinuing services for Final Fantasy XI.. blah blah", then it's business as usual.

I've done BRII three times in a row (all before JP midnight).

And that's not having saved up 3 Remnant Permits beforehand, right?

Correct.

This is just flat-out not true. I didn't specify II in my post earlier, but all my salvage runs I did yesterday were the level 99 (II) versions. I did SSRII 3 times already this morning.

Not sure where some of you are getting mislead about the entry conditions: Only Arrapago Remnants has a 1/day limit (shared between both I and II). The other 3 zones have no limit whatsoever. The only thing affecting your re-entry is whether or not you picked up another permit.

Spammed the ***outta SSR yesterday, and every time I finished I was able to pick up the permit right away, which was always under an hour. Either my sense of time is amazingly bad or it's a quicker recharge time than indicated.
