If someone feels like updating the ambuscade page on the wiki(s)

This should be the definitive order for the next forever. So you can always know what mob will be next. April 2029 will be Goblins for example.

Jan odd years Ironclad
Feb odd years Doppleganger
Mar odd years Corse
Apr odd years Goblin
May odd years Orcs
Jun odd years Quadav
Jul odd years Yagudo
Aug odd years Gigas
Sep odd years Mamool
Oct odd years Troll
Nov odd years Frog
Dec odd years Soulflayer

Jan even years Lamae
Feb even years Fomor
Mar even years Velkk
Apr even years Antica
May even years Tonberry
Jun even years Sahagin
Jul even years Qiqirn
Aug even years Meeble
Sep even years Qutrub
Oct even years Dullahan
Nov even years Moogle

Nobody is running ambuscade in 2029 unless those goblins are bringing some armor upgrade. +3 or gtfo

People will always need more alexandrite and heavy metal. Not everyone is on track to finish a prime weapon by 2029.

I don't need any more currency, mostly because of ambuscade. Honorable mention to campaigns.

If you started now, you'd have 10 REMA just from running ambuscade by 2029. Unfortunately, you probably still won't have a reason to make a prime ><;;

I get this is kind of tongue-in-cheek but...there's no more "reason" to make a Caladbolg than there is "reason" to make a Helheim. You make them because they do a lot of damage.

I find it really strange that in an MMO it's perfectly normal to chase +1 light elemental resistance for your THF idle set on the off chance you're clipped by a stray Diffusion Ray while kiting, but we draw the line at getting another 10% DPS on DRK (made up numbers) because "you don't need it."

Also, "because then I'd have one and the members of my old static who ghosted wouldn't" is a pretty strong and I feel valid reason to get all the prime weapons.

But it's also the reason I don't expect to make one in the next five years, you don't really solo prime weapons unless your version of "solo" involves puppeteering five additional bodies.

You can run ambuscade or the regular content for REMA whenever you want to, and the campaigns(while active) on your own time. That is enough reason for me.


I don't think it's normal to chase idle gear. I think it's normal to learn how to kite so you don't have to chase idle gear. I would only suggest to someone that they chase gear that's critical to their role/function.
