YM778.TV Vol. 4 - Chapter 251 - Purpose of and the correct way to use it.
In this world where stuff like Official Hidden Tactics etc are unknown, this Job Ascension ticket was an absolutely important and precious item. It is the apple of everyone\'s eye, but the supply was overwhelmingly low in contrast to the demand. In fact, there were times when it wouldn\'t drop at all.
I could still vividly recall the hardships I had gone through to recruit the guild members when I was playing Dungeon Activity as a game.
It hadn\'t come out no matter how many times I prayed, even though Official Hidden Tactics were always available at our disposal. It wouldn\'t come out if you wished for it. I bet the <Ghost: Greed Sensor> was working at its best to prevent that.
There was also the fact that the appearance rate of this ticket is very low in the intermediate dungeons. I recall it being a measly 1% chance. You could defeat the boss around 100 times and even then, it would be a question if you could get it
Those who have played the gacha must have known, just abysmal the chance 1% was. The tickets didn\'t come out even after 300 rounds, no matter what you did.
What\'s more, it\'s impossible to clear the advanced dungeon unless you can prepare the Advanced Job Ascension Ticket for five party members. I guess I don\'t need to elaborate on how difficult that was.
Consequently, there are very few people who have awakened to advanced jobs in reality.
It\'s a big ‘if’ if your average guild could even gather an Advanced Job Ascension Ticket for five people by graduation time when their goal is to clear one dungeon a day. That\'s even more impossible in reality when the dungeon can only be cleared on weekends.
First of all, a compatible team would be needed if a party wanted to clear the advanced dungeon hassle-free and gather Job Ascension Tickets for five people.
However, the one who usually used them was the party that got them. I doubt anyone would agree to forego their ascension ticket in order to complete an advanced dungeon.
Therefore, the reason why there was almost no one to challenge the advanced dungeon The inhabitants of this world were so eager to clear the intermediate dungeon because it hasn\'t been confirmed that clearing an advanced dungeon has a chance of dropping an Advanced Job Ascension ticket. This was another reason why the progress of Advanced Dungeon is stagnant.
The drop rate of Ascension Tickets from advanced dungeons jumped from 1% to 3%.
The common practice in the game was to somehow collect at least five tickets in the intermediate dungeon, rank up the jobs of members who would be the core party members for the advanced dungeon exploration team, and then farm the tickets there.
It\'s just too hard to gather tickets in Intermediate dungeons with a measly 1% chance for all 50 guild members.
I guess it should be clear how precious the Job Ascension Ticket was.
And this Job Ascension Ticket, sought by everyone, has dropped now! What\'s more, it dropped at our first Intermediate Dungeon exploration, this must be a sign of a good omen! Thank you very much, Sachineko-sama!
In addition, two of the <Body ①> defense headpieces from the <Dinosaur Armor Series> fell from Hannah\'s chest. One can awaken the series skill by collecting three or more kinds of armor from this series. Hannah\'s chest had dropped two.
This, too, was amazing. If only there was one more piece... The greed sensor is scary.
Anyway, it\'s time to put it aside. What\'s more important right now is the Advanced Job Ascension Ticket.
Hmm, everyone already knows about the existence of these tickets, so there\'s no need to explain them. The question was: what to do with this ticket?
"I will use it! Let me use it!"
"No, I think a tank is the most suitable. A powerful tank can provide battle stability."
"How about increasing the offensive power? It took too long to damage the intermediate boss."
"Err... I wonder if I\'m all right now... But... "
Well, everyone would want to use it. There are only a handful of advanced jobs in this world. It was something that everyone yearned for.
But this wasn\'t something you wished for, and there you get it. Rather, it\'s something like the more you want, the less you will find it.
(It’s kind of like the work of a ghost)
Begone, you ghosts!
Eden currently holds two tickets for Advanced Job Ascension. Though the other ticket\'s existence is hidden from everyone except Hannah and me, only one is publicly known. I\'m saving the hidden one in case of an emergency.
Anyway, the topic got derailed, but I had already decided what I was going to do with this ticket, so it\'s time to calm down everyone.
"Alright, everyone listen. I don\'t have any plans to use it for anyone else at the moment. So this will go to storage."
"Wha! What exactly do you mean by that?"
"At the present moment, huh, so you\'re planning to use it later?"
"Of course. The right moment to use the Ascension Ticket is when the lower rank jobs have reached the max Lv75. I will not allow it to be used in <Eden> before that."
"... Continue."
Lana was still dissatisfied, but Sierra looked like she had begun to understand as she urged me to continue.
"Let me explain in easier terms. I reckon everyone should have known that the level limit at which the Ascension Ticket can be used is 30, right?"
Then, I continued seeing everyone nod at my words.
"That being said, there isn\'t anyone who would use it at Lv30. Why do you think so?"
"Because it would be a waste of SUP and SP. I see."
"As you have said, Sierra. Your present SUP and SP will be inherited when you transfer to an advanced job. Only when you raise your level to the limit can you have the strongest start. You will lose the enhancement from the leftover level should you decide to use it currently."
Everyone seemed to have finally understood after explaining so far.
"I understand. But what are you going to do when the level is maxed out, and to whom are you going to give it?"
Lana gave me a sharp glare for some reason, though I had already decided on it long ago.
"Everyone."
"E-Everyone... Is it even possible?"
"It is. Of course, collecting the ticket for everyone here would be difficult, but don\'t forget that we have the boss farming manual."
"!...... You\'re right. This can be done. We can achieve it with that."
"Ah."
Lana, Ester, and Hannah\'s eyes widened as they exclaimed. I guess they finally remembered the existence of manuals from Sierra and mine exchange.
That\'s how outlandish the matter of farming tickets was in this world. However, we can achieve it.
After all, the Official Hidden Tactics - Boss Grind had been made available by the developer camp as their last resort precisely because of things like Ascension tickets etc.
That is why, while gathering them would undoubtedly take time, it was possible to gather them for all party members. Then, once we\'ve improved to the point of clearing an advanced dungeon, we\'ll be able to earn for all guild members.
That\'s why there\'s no need to scramble or contend for it.
When the time calls for it, I will have the party—no, the whole Eden—switched to Advanced jobs.
I have already decided on our next course of action for that.
The Intermediate Dungeon boss grind came first!
