Windurst fame. {Help me out!}Follow

Hi!

My name is Ferra, I play on Bismarck server, I love your shoes, yadda, yadda.

I'm interested in doing the Opo crown quest for my own evil purposes, and I'm also interested in Ramuh and Ifrit for my newly acquired love for the summoning job.

The problem is, I lack enough Windurst fame for either, and I've never really bothered. I was scanning through quests in the Windurst area section on Allakhazam, but I found that a little bit harder to navigate. I figure a few of you have got a decent amount of Windurst fame, and could help me out a bit. Any suggestions? :]

Also, one last thing, I don't have very much spare gil, as my second job is Ranger. If any of you could //possibly// offer any good suggestions -- with that in mind -- I'd really appreciate it! :D

Thanks!

Ferra

To be honest Ferra, I hated raising my windurst fame because most of the quest are unpractical to do, But there is a solution! This:

http://ffxi.allakhazam.com/db/quests.html?realm=&fquest=65

Mandragoria-mad... it's a easy quest and repeatable.. but guess what? you can buy at a NPC the cornettes you need!!

http://ffxi.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?fitem=316

It's in the music store in Bastok.Traveling between the 2 cities will be the longest part of this.

I wish I realized that scheme back when I was raising (painfully) my windurst fame But heh, what is done is done.

Good luck

*Edit* Bastok need to be first for those things to sell apparently ;;>.> (according to this at least)

Forgot about that simple fact, but given Lastok special abilities to get last.. you might need to wait a few decade >.>.

You can also trade sardines to one of the NPCs at the fishing guild. Either buy them cheap at the guild, or even cheaper fish them up (with lugworms).

Talk to NPC. (mandatory)
Trade bastore sardine.
Warp to HP nearby/walk to warptaru nearby and warp to Walls AH
Walk back to NPC/warptaru back to Port and walk back to NPC

If you have plenty of inventory space, another good idea would be to go out into SarutaBaruta and hunt down those wonderful Crawlers. Trade those lovely rocks they drop to Illu Bohjaa in Windurst Woods.

600gil per set of 3, for those, and you know how much the Silk Thread is worth these days, so you get a bonus.

Fame level comments:

Level one:
[Name]? Hmm... Sorry, but I have never heard that name before. Try doing some missions for Windurst. Bust you britches, and everybody'll know who you are. That's when the real work starts rolling in. People won't trust you unless you give them something to trust.

Level two:
[Name]? Hmm... Now was that the name of the ...? No, that was some other guy. Either way, you're still not making much of a name for yourself here yet. Hard work and perserverence--that's what's going to put you on the map.

Level three:
Oh, you're the [Name] that people are starting to talk about. I've heard pretty good things about you. Hard work and perserverence--those are the only things that'll put you on the map.

Level four:


Level five:
Why, if it isn't [Name]! I heard some guys talking about you over their dinners at the eatery last night. They had nothing but good things to say about you. Keep up the good work!

Level six:
Hello there, [Name]! There aren't many Windurstians who don't know that name. We're all proud to have you on our side. Keep up the great work!

Level seven:
People would have to be living inside a hole to not know of you.

Level eight:
Mister [Name]. There isn't a soul in all of Windurst that has yet to hear of your tales. Why, I remember when you were just a fledgling adventurer. It seems like just yesterday...

Level nine:
A day doesn't go by when I fail to hear a tale of your deeds, Lord [Name].

*Pounces Ferra*

I did the Bastore Sardine quest for five hours to get hero status (Thank you for being there throughout the whole ordeal Jachy) but if Bastok happens to be in second, the cornet-giving quest to one of the tarus is just as good.

Good luck sis!!

Step 1: Switch allegiance to Bastok

Step 2: Fight your *** off (with signet) to get Bastok to 2nd (I'm not even saying first).

Step 3: Buy cornettes. Lots of 'em.

Step 4: Trade 'em to the taru in the house of the hero (I believe).

Step 5 (three sir) 3: Profit!

Yea! More Summoners! *grin*

If you haven't got your fame up by the time I get back from the Con I can try to help as well. (Still could use to get more fame in Windy myself, as well.)
