1 unique quest DOES NOT equal 1 fame... What are you crazy?

i was taru from windy, never donw a quest in bastok. OF course didnt allow me to get the quest at first, just gave 21 trent bulbs and i got it, though maybe less are enough ^^
easy to do, and didnt have to bother reading for quests. bought the trents, give them to npc, zone, give again ^^

I checked my fame at it read that I was nothing more then a snail or something like that but I got the quest anyhow ..and I did it.. kinda stinks for the rest of you who did alot of quests to get your fame up
i admit i do not remember exactly when i completed this quest. I do, however, know and am certain that it was before i was even lvl 20 on my main. An ls member struck up a conversation on easy ways to make money quickly and this quest eventually came up. I thought "what the heck" and went back to bastok to try it out.
Got the quest first time i asked.
My character is Bastokan and hume, apparently that might contribute to getting the quest as early as i did. Also, i had about 8 or 9 quests finished when i talked to the npc, so the quest wasnt hard at all for me to get.
As for someone of another race and/or city, i believe that that takes a part in the lvl of fame needed to aquire this quest from the npc. Just try and bare with it and as people have posted, do the gourmet quest. The scroll, in my opinion, is well worth the bit of running to zone and give her the food a few times. Especially if your a blm. Hope this helps^^

There is no such thing as lvl 20 fame...you just need lvl 1 fame.

The Elvaan Goldsmith

I was clued into this quest accidentally, I am a level 5 BLM so its not too important to me, but while trying to do a quick simple repeatable quest for money, the quest changed on me, and a firend advised that i could get warp quest then, so i did it, no problem at all.
When i check fame in bastok... 1) where do i go? 2) what will he say when i have enough fame for this quest?

Yea good idea.. lets call people stupid cus thier new.
Doing quests over and over agean i heard only gives you 1/4 of what you would be geting by doing more quests.
so i think its beter to get lots of quest done rather spend a long time geting things for one quest.

Yes you can do this quest 20 times, each time you get a scroll of warp which sells for 10k at the AH!!!
..... think again

Posted: Feb 16 2004 at 9:01 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) IS THIS QUEST REPEATABLE???
This quest requires 10 Bastok quests completed before it will be given.
The best way to do this? 10 turn-ins for the "Gourmet" quest. I have verified this using treant bulbs (during peak and non-peak hours) 3 times.
The Gourmet quest is given by Salimah, in the house at L-8, in Bastok Markets. Salimah needs certain items at certain hours to for the meal she is cooking. This quest IS repeatable, but you are required to move to a different area and back (zone) before you can repeat it. Logging out doesn't work (I tried it, would have been quicker). Zoning into the Bastok Mines is pretty easy from the house, just check your map. While this might be a PITA to do 10 times, you will actually make money doing this. Here's the breakdown of which items she needs, which hours:
Treant Bulbs- 0600-1159, a reward of 200 gil. Purchased in the Bastok AH for 1200 a stack, or about 100-150 apiece.
Wild Onions- 1200-1759, a reward of 350 gil. Purchased in the Bastok AH for 4k a stack, or about 350-400 apiece.
Sleepshrooms- 1800-0559, a reward of 200 gil. Purchased in the Bastok AH for about 3k a stack, or 250-300 apiece.
Obviously, if you do this at the right times, using onions or bulbs, you will make money. You'll make more using bulbs. Note that even if you hand in one of these items at the "wrong" time, you will still receive a reward of 100 gil. So, even if you buy some treant bulbs and turn them in at an offtime, you will still break even on these turnins.
Once you have completed 10 quests, purchase a slime oil from the Bastok AH for about 6-800 gil. Turn it in to Unlucky Rat once he has given you the quest, and you get the scroll. That easy!
As you can see, you can have fame, 3-500 gil, and the warp spell, all for about a half hour's work, including the time you spend buying the items.

The gourmet information is good. Unfortunately you have to remember that fame is not earnt evenly for every PC depending on home town and race. Basically the matrix is about as follows
Home town & home race : Max effect
Home town or home race : Med effect
Neither home town nor home race : Min effect
The differences aren't massive but they can be self-evident when you compare a hume from Bastok earning fame in Bastok compared to a Taru from Windhurst doing the same missions.
Also - repeatable quests earn less fame than doing uniques - and quests that give a title are better fame providers than those that don't.
I's suggest the fame thread on the mission forum if you want better than regurgitated details :)

Posted: Jan 30 2004 at 1:10 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) I had to do the Gourmet quest 15 times - checking each time after the last 3.. so 10 gourmet quests alone won't do it.

i got this quest with no bastok quests other than ninja completed :)
Really? My BLM is at level 18, and I plan on getting Dark Night at level 30, but, I am not gonna wait to be level 30 for the warp scroll, so... I think I will keep doing other quests.... I wanna warp to Selbina as soon as I get the scroll, lol!
Just to make sure this doesn't confuse anybody... you do not get to choose where you Warp to. You will warp to the last place that you set your Home Point at.

I think that some have gotten this quest because they have a very high level of fame in other cities, and that makes slightly less work than if you didnt. just a guess tho.

i'm pretty sure people know that this is a BLM spell. You see other job groups trying to get this scroll to sell. Since its easy to get and you get 10-15k gil when you complete it
Uh, read on, dude. The reason people point out it's a BLM spell is because others keep saying that it's a Lv1 scroll usable by all jobs, oblivious to the fact that Warp is not Instant Warp scoll.
