I always did moss. It only needs one, so your stacks go further. Boyadha moss sells for 10k a stack on Fairy, and in the quest you get 7200 gil returned, so you don't lose much gil. 3 stacks of moss should get you more than enough fame, would probably take you to lvl 3 or 4 honestly.
EDIT: Oh, forgot to mention, the nice thing about this quest is that it levels your Sandy and Bastok fame at once.  I RNG 75 I WAR 37 I NIN 38 I SAM 50 I Woodworking 92+2

if you start at 0 fame, repeat it until she asks you to check out the signpost (her next quest). you now have enough fame for warp. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 09-07-2006, 07:37 AM | #6 (permalink) | | King of the Oompa Loompas Oracle of Knowledge Join Date: Nov 2005 Posts: 3,141 Style: Light - Version 6 Thanks: 9 Thanked 89x in 71 Posts Gil: 14,886 Bank: 20,568 Total Gil: 35,454 Donate | Re: Bastok fame Originally Posted by Caspian | Warp scroll quest only needs fame lvl 2.

Moreover, turning in Boyhada moss raises Jeuno fame, which is really important for future quests (and Sleepga II quest, which you will need). Also, you're going to want to make a macro for trading moss to the npc, as you can only trade one at a time. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 09-07-2006, 07:50 AM | #7 (permalink) | | LOLDRG Join Date: May 2006 Posts: 817 Style: Light - Version 5 My Mood: Thanks: 81 Thanked 64x in 46 Posts Gil: 9,766 Bank: 14,541 Total Gil: 24,307 Donate | Re: Bastok fame It may be hard for a level 17 blm, no sub, no choco, and no warp to make trips back and forth to Selbina from Bastok. I would suggest Neighbortaru's idea. Seems alot quicker and less dangerous. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 09-07-2006, 07:52 AM | #8 (permalink) | | Pink Mage Brain of Knowledge Join Date: May 2006 Location: Bastok/Illinois Posts: 1,534 Style: Light - Version 6 Thanks: 133 Thanked 165x in 107 Posts Gil: 5,030 Bank: 42,517 Total Gil: 47,547 Donate | Re: Bastok fame Originally Posted by Mog | | Exactly!

Even though you cannot macro it (and it takes quite a long time), I recommend you do corn instead. It is available cheaply from the Aragoneau Regional Merchant and from Raimbroy's Grocery when San d'Oria is not in 3rd place in conquest. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | All times are GMT -8.
