can't gather enough points to open chest + coffer.
I exclusively opened chests with points all the way to MM45. It costs 5+8+aurum coffer points to open one aurum with points.
Cap chest at 5 first. Then coffer at 8. Then gather enough points to open one aurum, save all points till last floor and hope you get aurum.
One run one aurum max and if your first two chests don't spawn an aurum you're sol.

If the object is to stink up the office three minuets will do.
Its a good advice, but if I dont have 4 songs, I would prefer swapping one minuet for a march.

Bastok is the worst by far. My wife made her character in Bastok and says its the best too, but you're all wrong. You guys just love the slavery aspects and free labor from galkas. I must reflect on the type of person I married since this seems to be a non issue with you people from Bastok.
She also calls me a traitor for making a hume in Sandy.

There really isnt, especially for BST, the only thing that should be a consideration for the pet would be maybe DT so it can survive, the dmg of auto attacks dont amount to much, ready sets your TP at minimum to 1k, gets anywhere from a decent bit to a lot of tp bonus(aymur) and then add on bst pets being largely war so even more fencer
Hybrid was more of a pup thing but the puppets fallen behind so much even that's kind of a waste, just go all in on master if you're engaging

I'll take into consideration the last 3 other "big" events to play added in game to make a comparison
Can't recall but was Dyna-D released all at once or was it zone by zone? Then later releases added wave 3, dyna weapons/necks and then updated further with the rema upgrade mechanic.
Was also lag issues and the shard/armor system was a mess at 1st with not being able to sell but was pretty quickly(relatively) fixed

They quickly realized that event would've failed to mantain long time interest (i.e. grind) And then they added Amplifiers which completely invalidate any grind.

Which is why I as asking why aren't the people against limbus as a concept, also against odysseys initial release. This is pure speculation on my side. Of course there are others who think the same, but we'll never be able to know wether it's true or false.
It is my personal feeling that they never planned for Gaol since the beginning. Sure, maybe it was some vague possibility (like plentiful others which never came to be for other events) but they didn't plan that far ahead. Initially it was meant as a content focused on UNM upgrades.
They quickly realized that event would've failed to mantain long time interest (i.e. grind) so they attempted to create something different, aimed at static parties with challenging, inventive fights the likes of which FFXI hadn't seen in a long, long time.
The development was planned in 3 steps.
1st step: Sheols. At this stage they didn't know wether or not the event would've expanded and if so in which direction
2nd step: Gaol, up to V15 but with intention to go up, they didn't know how yet
3rd step: Gaol, V20 and V25 were already planned by now.
Despite its several flaws, it's amazing how many good ideas they poured inside Gaol fights and related content. At the same time to me it feels obvious how it wasn't born with Sheols in mind from the beginning, and the way they forcefully tied the two parts together is one of the (small? big?) flaws of the event overall.
I'll take into consideration the last 3 other "big" events to play added in game to make a comparison:
Omen: like 90% of the event was planned and released from the start. Wether or not Ou & special floor were planned and if so vaguely or precisely, I can't really say but I don't feel it matters much, it's a really small part of the event overall. On a hunch it feels to me they probably had somewhat clear ideas though.
Sortie: The first 50% of the event was released immediately, the rest several months after, with Primes following further on. I think everything was clearly planned from the beginning. Maybe some details changed through the course of development but I think they had that plan and that idea of endpoint from the start.
Limbus: I feel like several details weren't completely planned perchance, but I feel they had an idea of where they wanted to go from the beginning.
Again, pure speculation on my side. It's just how it "feels" to me.

What's an acceptable amount of time to microwave fish for? ten minutes? NOTHING should be microwaved for 10 minuets.
If the object is to stink up the office three minuets will do.
If its fish sticks there are instructions. And if its fish sticks may the gods have mercy on your soul and digestive system.
I have a story about fish sticks ...

I duoed to MM45 with a mule (GEO) except for a few Aurums in C. The NMs you named should be possible solo with trusts, but it will potentially be the only thing you do that run. There is also someone who claims he soloed coffers and aurums by opening chests and coffers with points for better upgrade chances and then the aurum with keys. I found my average geared Tauret THF (2100 job points, malignance and some AF3 pieces) can't gather enough points to open chest + coffer.
The NMs can be soloed by very well geared selected few jobs but they are a significant step up in difficulty. I've soloed Gloios and Taniwha on BLU but Kuk is out of reach so I'd have to pick up a job like NIN and bring it to a pretty high gear level just for that one NM that doesn't even drop anything useful.
Its like you need to do a lengthy thing to do a lengthy thing to be able to do another thing solo at a mediocre level way down the line.
I also think a single multibox is already a pretty significant advantage over soloing.

The JP midnight hard spawn time is the problem that needs fixing. Everything else was a step in the right direction

Well, you wanted them to matter, now you can't ever get them. You got your wish.
Told you so.
(not you specifically, I don't think anyway)
The NM system still definitely needs tweaking. But isn't people having FOMO about not fighting them a step in the right direction from players actively avoiding them? On Asura it’s pretty much impossible to participate in the regular Job NM fights now as nobody shouts for them and people seem to be trying to keep the locations private. All 4 Temenos in NMs and all 2/4 Apollyon NMs within an hour. Whereisnm is completely useless for this as it requires players to actually want to share the spawns. Without an alert system it’s basically a system that only the whales get to participate on larger servers while still not doing anything useful on smaller servers.

Which is why I as asking why aren't the people against limbus as a concept, also against odysseys initial release. If they have forgotten or just skipped that first almost year of odyssey.
I finished off my original post as such:
It had an even slower rollout than Limbus, and the game wasnt even in maintenance mode yet. Bunch of revisionist theory haters up in here.

It was strictly to farm Lustreless Scales.
Not everything, this is still very valid. Ody was nothing more than a roaming exp party with lustreless mat drops for 6 months and 2 additional months with added segments.
As a bonus, the end goal touch reward wasn't added until May 2021!
"Players can now earn additional mog segments by examining the Otherworldly Vortex in Sheol A, B, or C based on the number of mog segments they have earned during that foray."

Does anyone else wish they would change how the Limbus NMs work? It feels like unless you are in the right time zone you simply won’t ever see them or be able to participate
