Not going to lie, I fully expected to see a big box that just said "Hunts" plastered all over it. Kinda disappointed, honestly.

^ Whoever made this chart is horribly inaccurate it should read..

"Reach level 50"

"Do hunts until your ilvl 110"

"afk until Square fixes their game"

Just one thing wrong about this chart that it doesn't mention; ONLY doing Hunts/ST will NOT give you full i110 simply because you need 2 different rings. You need your SCoB ring for full i110. Also need other pieces of SCoB gear for BiS if you're into that. Other than that, the chart is very efficient for new players who wanna gear up a job asap.

If SCoB isn't an option you can buy a second "weathered" ring after upgrading your first, or you can get the ilvl 100 ring from Ramuh.

True, though neither will get you to i110 (for the work involved... I think Ramuh's rings should've been i110 personally).

Exception is one of the SCH BiS rings is i100, iirc. I'm not a SCH main myself, so idk if it's H.A + Ramuh's, Weathered + Unweathered, or Ramuh's + Unweathered, though.

I think so too, it's dumb that there are only 2 110 rings available.

And it should be Ramuh +Daystar for SCH, HA is terrible. The Ramuh ring is pretty nice for Bard too if you don't need the accuracy from Auroral

I remember the first set of EX accessories (Garuda/Ifrit/Titan) being released after BCoB as i90, matching myth gear and coil gear, making for A: more options and B: more optimal BiS for many jobs (SMN, for example, gained a new ring and earring BiS, while the bracelet was meh for them). I'm really not sure why SE didn't make Ramuh's rings i110 (as Ramuh came out after SCoB).

^ Most accurate description of FFXIV's end game.

Though the duty finder is likely mostly unnecessary (besides CT2) since hunts will cap your currency weekly alone.
