In Phase 2 we will gather our butts off, shoot trees with a bazooka, learn to read and eat bread suspiciously. I know there is a lot more to say about gearing up, materia, macros, and path planning, but this is about getting started and plunging in. A lot of people are leveling up with this and in order to optimize your gear you need to either spend a ton of gil or spend a tone of time doing deliveries and such. Official Event Page
1. leveling gathering in the Diadem requires NO gear or stats other than what you have at 10. Just choose the first thing to gather and you get a lot of exp, even more so if you use a manual too. You can pretty much do this all the way to 70 without gearing.
2. for the fate, turn off names to see the stations better, otherwise you probably can't click on them because of all the people. Also, the more rotations you do will determine how much exp you get from it.
1. Thanks, I figured it was something like that, but I was already in the high 70s when this phase began. I know that when I hit 80 the artisanal items were still not 100% chance to gather. I had to get at least some level 80 gear.
2. I should have mentioned that since I do that myself. By the time I got into one I was already 80 on everything, so I had no idea about exp. Do you know if the Scrips very, or at what points you get silver or bronze?
