v1.2.2 (for FFXIV v3.3)
The Low-Help challenge run involves getting by, by your own means. Obtaining items and
equipment from others defeats this purpose; the idea is to only use the things you get
yourself and create what you need from them.
rules:
1. cannot use, buy, or keep any items given by or from other players or NPCs. all equipment
and other items must be discarded asap. look in the notification area when you receive
anything and discard the amount given.
exceptions:
- starting equipment, including anything not equipped yet
- all lv1 main hands
- any crafting item that can only be found at shops (ie: marbled eye)
- items needed for quests (used only for quest and discarded asap)
- uniques (cannot be used unless necessary to a quest, then removed - keep if you want,
but never use)
- minions, mounts, barding
- any golden saucer item
- fishing tackles that cannot be obtained anywhere but a vendor or levequest
2. cannot purchase crafting materials. these must be obtained by hand.
3. dungeon drops, GC equipment, and hall of the novice are earned, and thus allowed.
4. getting dark matter with these rules is unreasonably hard to do, and as a result,
paying for repairs at NPCs is accepted.
5. cannot use retainers to obtain items for you.
optional:
- do not accept crystals from quests until you obtain 1 of that kind on your own
(since you can't discard a certain amount)
- accept Allagan coins when given the option, and sell
- cannot purchase GC goods, and pass on all dungeon drops - equipment can only be crafted
