okay, all servers are different, and i would say no city is any better than another, all have individual perks, and none have nothing you will ever need. im just saying a forum like this could give alot of help/advice... there is like 10 posts where noobs are asking for help and the closest thing to a response is "sandy is the best", thats not good game karma, and personally i think almost everything in this forum is a waste of server space. for all you noobs out there if you need help feel free to email me at laramiedaxfoster@aol.com id be glad to give any and all advice i can offer, from everything to gil farming at low levels, to what to buy/sell, and what to kill and when to kill it.

can someone tell me how to get alliance in bastok. I am from san d'oria and i walked to bastok at level 9 i am confused

hi

1. 4 flintstones to the cook on Gold Street; trade, zone, repeat.

2. wild onion (or 2 other foods) to cook just down the street; amount you receive depends on when you trade. Zone, repeat.

3. steam clock quest: profitable. Stack of quus from AH or fish, head out to lighthouse in SoGusta, look for ??? bush in back, trade one quus, fight Bubbly Bernie (easy, he's prob around level 9, easiest NM in the game), get clock and return to woman in house just before the bridge to Port (2d room). Repeat until quus are gone. You get 6k gil from a stack of quus, plus good fame and title.

4. when you can go to Dunes easily, moss quest with sheepherder in Selbina (Bastok, Jeuno, Selbina and Rabao fame). 14 stacks of Boyahda moss will max your fame in all 4 cities named. Pain in the arse to trade moss, one at a time, but you get back a decent amount of gil, cutting the cost of the moss. (1st time, need millicorn, cabbage and moss; repeats, best to use moss). Don't remember any more, this might also work on Sandy fame. Post correction if you know.

Note: zinc quest (zine ore to guard downstairs in Warehouse 2 in Port) is Tenshodo fame, not Bastok fame, BUT good if you want Nin.

Hey Freaks...

Whats a simple mission for an Lev 5 Char in Bastok at startup?

Asura server here, and more then 80% of the time i go to check my CP. we are always in first, you guys are letting the rest of us bastokians down. follow asura server and take control!!!!

on a side note, nothing very special comes from the asura server, except our high prices :(

Why does it say "Gustaberg" next to region? All the other nation places say theyre nation next to Region. Sorry if someone already posted about this error.

Ok Bastok Is the best main if you wold read the history of Vana'diel you would know Bastok kick Sandys ass. Here I got the pastage


Before the San d'Orians could mass a force to deal with the new kingdom to the
south, the attacks began. Bastok using it's newly created army made quick work
of the outlying San d'Orian southern defenses. Meanwhile the Taru's and
beastmen to the east launched assault upon assault on the empire's eastern
boarder. Finally a massive assault on the defenses at Sauromogue by the
taru broke through the lines of knights. Every last Elvaan fought bravely,
every last Evlaan was killed. In the south the Bastokan's turned their
attention to the key grounds of the Konschtat Highlands. If they could
control these lands Bastok would be safe from counter attack. In a battle
of epic nature, the San d'Orian knights and Bastokan army battled San D'oria
made one last push under the leadership of their first female warrior
Lady Eldie Mantiant. Bastok was forced from the Highlands, but at a horrible
price. The legions of San D'oria had been all but wiped out.

On Titan Bastok is ALWAYS IN LAST PLACE. Windy and Sandy ALWAYS beat it out.

Got my bastok Aketon on Ragnarok FINALLY, been like 6 months since we have kicked some ass

I was wondering if Bastok were in 1st and you are an Elvaan, can you buy the Bastokan ring with conquest points from the gatehouse guards? If you cant, is there any other way?!

Bastok is the best place in Vanadiel by far. The missions are great and so are the quests. The AH always has a great supply and it has some great guilds. you cant go worng with Bastok!

OMG!! bastok is first on the IFRIT server!! chakrams and musketeer guns are selling like mad!! o.o i almsot fainted. wow! were first for the first time in 5 months yay for bastok ^^

In my opinion....
Bastok i sthe best city because the Auction house and the Mog house are so close to each other and the guilds arn't to bad either....
Post your opinions everyone! cause i know mine ^^

i love bastok! not because its my home nation but because it has a bit of everthing! it is very well laid so that its easy to get around unlike sandy and its so easy to memorize where everything is like amor ,magic,weapons and AH!

Hi Bastok markets (waterway) is often reffered to on many sites, but where exactly is it? Is that' on the Kulatz bridge?

Thanks for your help.

I was looking on some sites as to where I can fish in Bastok. I saw that they kept referring to an area as the Bastok Markets (Storage of Water) and was listed separately from the rest of the Bastok Markets. Can anyone help me out?
I'm a traveling San d'Orian and will be spending some time in Bastok, and I don't know the area that well.
