Been organizing the page on BG for Ambuscade since it was a vomit of paste from the update notes.
Should be close at a point where anyone can throw tidbits in here and there.
Also my entire party entered then slowly started D/Cing first with two people then one at a time slowly over the course of a few minutes until we were all d/ced.

Same thing happening on Shiva now too.
Inb4 the maint!
POL isn't letting us back on either.

Anyone tried the VD volume 1 yet? What do you guys think would be best setup? I was thinking PLD WHM BRD GEO DD then either another DD, or BLM to sleep or PLD to hold the adds. I see someone tried D volume 1 above, but not VD ilvl 134. DDs will need geo acc and g horn madrigals to be able to hit since VD is ilvl 134. Did testing earlier, Idris GEO gave 100 Acc and G horn madrigal x2 gave 74, with marcato on blade madrigal total acc was around 90, and with SV gave around 175 total acc.
Several people in my LS just DC'd from various areas, myself included. Not consistent either, couple of us DC'd on one character but not another. None of us can log back in.

I disconnected while party leader was spamming enter for the fight, wasnt just me. Party member also d/ced and we both stuck on PlayOnline loading screen, just loading forever for me

I was d/c'd as well, but not my boyfriend, we play together on the same internets! I just tried logging back in a few times and now I am back online. Don't give up!
I still can't get back on, but that is okay as I was just doing wiki instead anyway.
I took rewards from this event and their Hallmark cost and put them into tables.
If anyone finds out the monthly purchasing caps for the other items. Please either tell me or add them to the rewards page
There is a lot of polishing and cleaning up that needs to be done to the Ambuscade page on wiki, but I am feeling tired after that marathon of typing. I think it is all in a good enough position that I can stop for the night.

Great job Floppy. I can tell you right now the limits on Abdahaljs items are: 40 thread/dust, 20 saps. Edited page as well.
Edit: I went to Mhaura and speaking with Gorpa-Masorpa and selecting an item will tell you how many more total-wotal he can give you.

Made a dumb table for RMEE currencies from Ambuscade:
CostToMax is the amount of hallmarks needed to cap on that item in a single month.
AmtToEnd is the amount of that item to "finish" a weapon (approximate for Relics, includes refund).
CostToEnd is the total sum of hallmarks to reach the final amount.
MaxToEnd is the number of months it'll take to reach the final amount given the monthly caps.
Da facts:
-- Riftcinder/Riftdross are the cheapest currency to cap out by a pretty wide margin.
-- Mythics and Ergons cost 50% more hallmarks than other weapons to bring to 95; FFXIAH.com Achievements tab vindicated.
-- It's still far simpler to Afterglow with Oboro than with the Magian Trial upgrade items.

Only 8.3 years of exchanging hallmarks for singles to complete a Relic.

Are those the caps for the month? 2 HQ currrency and such?
Edit: NVM it was edited already :o
I like this team work.
I tried Dyna-Sandy for Orcs. Was only getting credit for wyvern kills towards the dragons as of 4/6/16.
Does La Vaule have a crystal? Seems like orcs are just too far out of the way to make farming efficient.
Edit: Use the Survival guide warp for the Norvallen Front. It'll dump you outside La Vaule, with a bunch of orcs near the guide if nobody is there. Head inside if people are already killing stuff.

There's also orcs right around the Recall-Jugner crystal, if you have a WHM.

Well I never got to try today other difficulties or party sizes because the game never let me back on after hours and hours. So I can't answer you, but I built that part on testimony.
I imagine that will be sorted out rather soon though.

Does the amount of Orcs in the battle depend on difficulty or party size? I`ve done that fight on Easy and Normal with 2+trust a few times and there were only 3 Orcs, a PLD, MNK and a BLM

I was under the impression it was 6.
Egh, I will write about the orcs in the morning if someone doesn't beat me to it.
NN.
May have been 5 on D, memory wasn't the best at 5-6AM.
VD has 6 Orcs. D has 4.
