How long to use the Lv34 Lance?

[Carbon]

I'm at Lv40 now and wasn't really impressed with the Lv46 Halberd. On the other hand, the Lv41 Orc Piercer looks pretty nice, at least on paper.

Is this a good upgrade from the Lance? Or should I stick with the Lance until the Lv45 Trident becomes available?

If you can hold out for two levels, I'd say use the AF lance.

Level 38 Obelisk Lance is an upgrade.

[Carbon]

Is there an NPC store that sells this?

Been checking the AH the past two days, and no luck.

[Niexist]

if you're level 42 look at the AF thread, the AF lance is LV 42.

[Carbon]

According to the AF thread, doesn't this require a PT of 50+?

I don't exactly have that kind of personnel available, short of begging some JP...

[Niexist]

beg a japanese person, it's worth it the AF lance is the best for your level, and is required to do the other AF's.

I upgraded to Obelisk lance at 38 over lance, and finished the AF 1 quest at 44. Despite what everyone told me about the fight being incredibly hard, I brought 8 people I knew (BRD/RDM/WHM/PLD/WAR/SAM/THF/me), and we killed it with ease. I have no doubt it could've been done easily with a party of people around level 42-44 or so, but having a BRD or RDM to dispel is relatively important. AF 1 lance is pretty nice too for the level.

[Carbon]

sigh...I guess I'll have to beg.

I could perhaps get 1 person around Lv50 to help. Other than that, I'm not sure I know anyone who'd go as far unless they were already in the general area.

So, what level player that I would have to beg, would be high enough to take on the NM? A 60?

Monster does PLD 2 hour bring someone who can heal or you'll be in trouble.

Is the NM drop guaranteed btw? Didn't see anything about that in the AF thread above.

Touch the ??? to pop the antican NM. Then after you defeat him you touch the ??? again to receive a key item. Bring that back to sandoria to receive your lance.

Alright, thank you everyone for the advice.

Got my character ready, and this will be the first thing I attempt when I log in tomorrow. Wish me luck

Successfully acquired the lance today, though I have yet to use it.

LFG, as usualy -_-;
