Trying to get cleanse

[Evil Angel [S]]

since 30 minutes, not exagerating im trying to get the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ treasure since 30 minutes in cerobi to spawn which should contain cleanse. wtf game, i dont want to spent hours to get a 20% spawn

[Evil Angel [S]]

FINALLY! only took me like 35 minutes

That's one thing i dislike about the game. Such vital things are locked behind rare chests. It took me about an half an hour as well at 4x speed before i finally got it. If it wasn't for the ability to speed the game up, i'd have smashed something im sure.

Why you can't purchase such a low level skill is beyond me especially when a remedy does the trick (after "upgrading" remedy lore)

Same. Having a random chance to get the spell or not is rather dumb. I also had to google, where it is since, well.. when i first went through this area, the chest wasn´t there.

I have to agree that the 20/25% chests just smell like ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

I get that something like the 0.1% chests in Cerobi are meant as jackpots, or for the TRULY dedicated farmers. Fine. Cater to people who enjoy that, I don't mind.

But 20/25% is just wasting my time for no reason.

Yeah, this is really annoying, shame the appearance chance of chests is slow low, then if its a rare weapon, a low chance on that. Damn silly, the odds should be better.

The super rare items I have no problem with. Those chests all respawn, so it has to be a low chance or you'd have everyone in top-tier gear in no time.

But on a non-respawning chest with 100% fixed contents, making that a 20/25% chance spawn is just aggravating.

Diamond Armlet doesn't change the odds, it just moves to a different loot table. For most chests, it'll be gil and Knot of Rust instead of whatever else would be in the chest (non-respawning chests are unchanged). However there are a ton of chests in Cerobi Steppe that will have gear on the Diamond Armlet loot table only - those are very rare chests, though, and getting a gear piece out of them is also rare. Usually it's between 0.1-1.0% chance overall to get the gear piece (accounting for chest spawn, and getting the right piece). But that's basically limited to Cerobi Steppe only. In fact, there's a lot of chests outside of that place where wearing a Diamond Armlet will NOT let you get gear pieces, just gil or Knot of Rust. There's also chests where it doesn't matter whether you wear it or not.

I don't think there's a danger of that ever happening. I'm safe.
