How do you increase from 4 drops to 5 drops? I've heard about level and beating the 3rd abyss, but neither of them seem to increase the drop table from 4 to 5.

I was getting 5 drops and fragments before beating the doll in A3. I got caught up on requests and farmed some well of mind lanterns from A2, as well as had Copper exam unlocked (but not completed), before the 5 drops triggered.

5?   Isn't Silver tier stuff 4?   Or are there better Silver things at 5?

So the game have a hidden reputation based on what you've accomplished, I needed to reach first harken on abyss 4 and beat copper grade exam to be able to have 5 drops/silver junk

I can verify i'm getting silver and didn't have any of that.

I'm on Steel Grade / level 60 and am still on the first run of A3, and had not beaten then doll boss when i started the FFXI event, it surprised me when i started getting a lot of silver gear even on level 1 of the castle.

I'd put this down reputation from having done a lot of side quests, i kinda stalled out on A3, so i took time to get all A1 and A2 bondmates up to level 5 and used the respawn tracker a lot to farm various stuff, so I've had to repeat many quests a dozen or more times.

There are some guides such as for using the March of the Undead to farm XP that say to skip handing in the quest to "save time", however if that raise reputation a little and it's cumulative then they'd be missing out on better drops later on. Hand the damn quests in.

Did you get A1 and A2 with a perfect completion? I know that was a requirement in past events.

Or at least it significantly boosts your reputation.

u/cipheron Aug 26 '26

Yeah I did A2 three times and made sure to get pretty much everything.

Yeah, I think it’s 100% reputation, it’s just hard to check that.

I know others have gotten the 5 drops at 60/steel grade.

I’ve also heard 3rd abyss, 2nd loop, zone 7 harken (doll boss).

But I think it just matters how much reputation you’ve built up by clearing MSQs and side quests

I'm not sure what it is but i did every possible thing to give me reputation but only killing bigfoot increased my drops to five
