Having the Wildskeeper Reives be in Vana'Bout outside of a WKR campaign really stinks. It's hard to deal with their 3 hour respawn time and then you have get an evaluation as well. Poorly thought out...

Maybe they wanted you to wait 3 hours? Pretty sure it was intended or else they would have fixed it by now in the recent update.

Given 2 weeks to kill 2 mobs, it's fair.

It's shitty. But it's not unreasonable.

Remember not to immediately spend ALL of your sparks this morning.

They gave the goal reduction but sparks VDB should still pop twice before this ends. Free points.

All the 30 category are ugh

not doing 10 orbs (you can just leave the battle once you cracked it. still not doing it)
cant do sr
cant do omen
I guess incursion isn't terrible. no requirements

getting to silver on just 30~50 a day cuts it close.

For orbs, you just have to enter and warp.

Set HP to Port J.
make /targetnpc /item "Macrocosmic Orb" <t> macro

Takes 2-3 minutes. Mog Pell (Red) provides 40 seals for the AMAN mules.

SR and Omen are a progression *** block.

Incursion you can tractor pull someone to, so yeah not a problem.

Im aware of what to do. Im not willing to do it.

If it were one per party, sure. One per person. absolutely not. Too much effort.

Too many zones too many menus too many trades
Hard pass

Not "too much" but still too much. If it was more than manually logging in when they crash I wouldn't do it.

I'll learn to write in the next go round (next life not next bout)

You know you don't need "sw hp" anymore, can just use "hp .." and so forth for all the other superwarp commands.

So does anyone know "exactly" how the top 10 is worked out for getting the title? And when is it received? Some of you on here must have gotten it.

LOL@title... yeah I get it, who cares? But it's an MMO and it's there, so I want it :p

Got a screenshot today of me being 1st to resister at maximum plaudits. Seconds later few more come in registering theirs, and they all get put in list above me. I check a couple hours later and I'm now 18th out of 26 all joint 1st with maximum. With more to come I'm sure.

So how is the title distributed?

EDIT: This time around I only registered the once at maximum plaudits, as many others had done same on last Vana round.

You get the title when you select the Overall Reward.

The title is bestowed when you talk to the Coordinator Moogle after Vana'Bout ends and get the overall reward. There is some dialogue indicating you got the title if you qualify.

Quote:
Coordinator Moogle: We're currently in the process of distributing items to those who participated in Vana'Bout round [x], kupo!.
You have been awarded a special title, as you placed rank 10 or higher!

Top 33 on Ragnarok who registered (haven't checked since yesterday to see if anyone else registered) with 1420 plaudits get the title. Whoever was #34 had 1410 plaudits and there was an 8-way tie for 1400 plaudits, some probably due to losing out on 20 plaudits from the first sparks daily objective.

Maybe they should go back to allowing 120-150 daily plaudits so people are less inclined to max out once they get the gold reward. JFL

I'm in the same boat. I think we're just screwed out of the title because of shitty SE programming.

Still confused how i was supposed to register. BG doesn’t mention at all. Unless you mean I was supposed to run quickly to mog before others. Sorry just really annoyed. Our sortie static also broke this week so FML ?

The moogle gives an option to register your points, then the option to register using your name or have it anon.

That being said, I dunno if you only have to do that initially just once to be on the tally or if you have to redo it at the end so it updates you from your previous pt total or not. I've never been in the running for a title, so never looked into it that much
