Walkthrough
- Trade Melyon any of the below to complete the quest.
- La Theine Cabbage x5 = 100g reward
- Millioncorn x3 = 120g reward
- You can trade a full stack (12) of Millioncorn to Melyon and he'll only take 3.
- Boyahda Moss x1 = 600g reward
- MACRO (note that you should be standing directly in front view of Melyon):
- /targetnpc
- /item "Boyahda Moss" <t> (this macro will only work with Boyahda Moss because it is not possible to "macro/trade" more than 1 item at once.)
This Quest will raise Reputation in two of the main nations (Bastok and San d'Oria) plus Jeuno. It does not affect Windurst reputation.
Contrary to popular rumor, this quest has been shown NOT to lower Tenshodo (Norg) reputation.
The following table was compiled by creating a new character and completing no other quests (including the Adventurer coupon quest.) The test character traveled to Selbina from Bastok multiple times, checking reputation at regular intervals. Note: these values are not known to be the minimums for the associated reputation.
Bastok/San d'Oria/Jeuno reputation from Millioncorn: (from zero reputation) Stacks # of trades Reputation level 12 48 2 24 96 3 48 192 4 64 269 6 75 300 7 96 384 8 100 400 9
(slowmanrunning on asura server):
- Being windurstian, and having done no prior quests outside of windurst I did this quest to get to fame 2, and 12 stacks of million corn gets you to fame 2. Checked using fame NPC.
- Reputation level 9 can be obtained by trading 30 stacks of Boyahda Moss for a character starting reputation level 0. Using the macro listed above, this method is by far the quickest (accomplished in approx. 40 minutes). It's important to note that obtaining level 9 reputation may take less than 31 stacks of Boyahda Moss, as reputation was not checked during the trading of the 31 stacks. Also note that depending on the economy of your server, you may be able to complete this by spending little or no gil. On Alexander server for example, Boyahda Moss was selling for 7100-7900 gil per stack (591-658 per piece). Since Melyon gives you 600 gil for each moss you trade him, your effective gil expenditure is very little.
- Using a mule, I went from 0 fame to level 7 Fame by trading only 20 stacks of Boyahda Moss. With only one quest in Bastok completed (A Lady's Heart) and no quests from any other areas. submitted by: Tranx of Siren server
- Using a mule, I went from 0 fame to level 9 Fame by trading only 30 stacks of Boyahda Moss. With only one quest in Bastok completed (A Lady's Heart) and no quests from any other areas. submitted by: Tranx of Siren server
-La Theine Cabbage-
I just did this from start to rank 9 by using the Cabbage because Sandy was last place and a stack of Moss was going for 10k. I don't know how much it cost in the end but it took somewhere between 232 and 252 stacks to get from rank 1 to rank 9.
Million Corn If you buy the million corn with a character that has max fame, there is a slight profit. Million Corn X3 @ 36/Piece= 108, so there is a profit of 12 gil.
