Please note that this isn't an all-inclusive guide that tells you exactly how to do everything. This will just give you an idea of the things you can do to grind out Mythology/Soldiery, whether it's for your original Relic, your Zenith, your Animus, your Novus, or if you just want to get that sweet-looking set of i90 gear for your (1st/4th /9th) alt class. Let's start by breaking down the different Roulettes and the requirements to get each one unlocked:
Duty Roulette: Low-Level Contents: all 4-player story dungeons. (Sastasha-Aurum Vale, Ifrit/Titan/Garuda NM) Mythology Reward: 100 Mythology Soldiery Reward: 5 Soldiery Good if you don't have a class you're levelling for cross-class skills. If you need a cross-class skill, use it on that lower class instead, as it's one of the best ways to gain XP. Duty Roulette: Main Scenario Contents: Castrum Meridanium, The Praetorium Mythology Reward: 100 Mythology (80 from Roulette+20 for dungeon) Good if you're just starting out. However, doesn't drop gear at all and is rather long for the amount of Mythology you receive. Duty Roulette: Trials Requirements to Unlock: Must finish all Trials contained in Roulette. Contents: Chimera, Hydra, Battle at the Big Bridge (Gilgamesh), Ifrit/Garuda/Titan/Mog/Leviathan HM. Mythology Reward: 80-85 Mythology (70 for roulette, remainder dependent on trial) Soldiery Reward: 14-16 Mythology (10 for Roulette, remainder dependent on trial) Drops: iLvl60(Ifrit)/70(Garuda)/75(Mog)/80(Titan) Weapons/Shields Great to do every day; short fights and ease to get into make Trials one of the most consistent sources of Mythology. Duty Roulette: High Level Requirements to Unlock: Must finish all Dungeons contained in Roulette Contents: Wanderer’s Palace, Amdapor Keep, Copperbell Mines HM, Haukke Manor HM, Pharos Sirius Note: This may be done in a fully pre-made group. Mythology Reward: 100 or 120 Mythology (70 for Roulette; 30 for WP/AK, 50 for others) Soldiery Reward: 20-40 Soldiery (10/30) Gear Dropped: i55 left side/weapons (WP/AK), i60 all slots (others) High-Level Roulette is another great way to get quick Mythology. Most people are competent/overgeared enough at this point to clear these dungeons quickly. Additionally, you can take your friends along with you for added fun! Duty Roulette: Expert Requirements to Unlock: Must finish all Dungeons contained in Roulette Contents: Brayflox’s Longstop HM, Halatali HM, Lost City of Amdapor Note: This may be done in a fully pre-made group. Mythology Reward: 50 (850) Mythology (50 Mythology, Free Novus Alexandrite Map {800 Tomes} ) Soldiery Reward: 70 Soldiery (45 for dungeon, 25 for Roulette) Gear drops: i70 Gear, Crafting Materials (2500 Seal items) Your bread and butter Roulette. You want to do this every day, more for the Soldiery than the Mythology until you have Novus.
Total number of Myth farmable via Daily Roulettes per day: 455 (This assumes you get a non-WP/AK dungeon and one of the top Trials)
RAIDS Please refer to www.xivdb.com for loot tables of all raids. The Binding Coil of Bahamut (Turns 1, 2, 4, & 5 drop 20 Mythology/10 Soldiery)
Crystal Tower Labyrinth of the Ancients Mythology Reward: 150 Mythology (25/35/45/45 myths per boss) Soldiery Reward: 10 Soldiery Gear Drops: iLvl80 Armor (Left side) (Tank, Healer, DRG, MNK, Caster, BRD) If you are undergeared, this is the quickest way to get your Mythology WHILE jumping a set of gear over Expert Roulette. Additionally, you can spiritbond here for your Novus quest.
Requirements for one (1) set of i90 gear (including Zenith weapon) Weapon: 1125 (225 for i80 Relic, 900 for i90) Head: 495 Chest: 825 Hands: 495 Belt: 375 Pants: 825 Boots: 495 Necklace: 375 Earring: 375 Wrist: 375 Ring: 375 Ring 2: Coil or Garuda Drop
“Cherry picking”: Once you have all 4 faction up to maximum , you can pick and choose what rewards you want from Rank 3 by accepting/not accepting quests that give the tome you desire. (i.e. Myth until you hit a Soldiery quest, then go to the next quest-giver). This will maximize
Maps Give a random amount or Mythology of Soldiery + crafting materials, possible minions, possible battle gear, and gil. Farmable 1x/day w/ 40+ Gathering Class.
