Obtaining Ambuscade Weapon and Reforge Weapons 1, 2, 3 require Tokko, Ajja, Eletta, and Kaja variants of the weapon. A completed final stage weapon does not work. (Edit: Kaja reportedly works for all objectives, just not the final stage variants.)
Kayte already reported that but it's nice to get further feedback about it.
I wonder... is that meant to be?
Are other people complaining on the JP forums?
Will SE "patch" it to accept all weapons, or are we gonna be forced to get a random Kaja?
I think I even had a Kaja weapon that I purposedly made a long time ago to be able to dualwield em, but I might have trashed it recently to get inventory+1 lol

Relics Item Level 119 +2 Records of Eminence Reward is 3 Kindred's Medals and not Beastmen Medals like the previous one.

Omen Good Light RoE is just the big Omen floor before Ou or the "farming" floor. You get upon entrance.

"Entering Vagary" RoE, you don't have to kill Rancibus etc. boss in Ra'Kaznar Turris. Just enter the arena.

Oh god, another boring event with a terrible UI that I'm forced to do to get the trust primer.
Yai.

Thanks for the links anyway!

The minigame is pretty awful for anyone trying to do it first and early. The 16 locations don't change between runs, so it really just comes down to waiting for someone to be nice enough to list out the 16 spots in each city so everyone else can do 100+ points per run instead of blindly flailing about for 3 points.

At least we know why the May update was 100 MB - placing new objects in the main cities is the likely culprit. Some of the changed things are pretty sneaky, like the change in the S. San d'Oria armor shop.

Sort of a neat idea, but yeah as usual the minigame is frustrating due to emote usage. At least you only need 5 points for the Tome so even if you are beyond bad / unlucky it should only take two or three attempts.

Once you do know all the locations (most of sandy is already on bgwiki) it's very easy. Without wasting energy spamming stare, as long as you don't miss your slaps on the ??? you can just ignore the moogles and not have any energy problems since the ??? give you a generous refill, and you'll get a bunch of points all at once since doing it all in one run isn't an issue.

My brother in Altana, you can store them on the Ambuscade mog slip(s).
