↖ The Isgebind Heart: A Valuable Commodity

If you're looking to craft great gear or complete challenging quests, then this is an item that you absolutely need in your inventory. Of course, considering its value in-game, it's safe to say that everyone wants their hands on one.

↖ Get That Key Item… Fast!

Let's cut to the chase! Understanding how spawn mechanics work will significantly increase your chances of getting what you want. The infamous Isgebind can be found lurking around Abyssea - Altepa. Keep these steps in mind as you go throughout your farming session:

Quick Kills: Kill them quickly so they drop more items faster. Players have claimed it takes them only 7 seconds before their next key item drops after defeating an enemy.

Multiple Key Items: Though rare and very random indeed, killing an Isgebind may yield two hearts instead of one sometimes (and trust me when I say that's a good thing). Fewer kills equate to fewer headaches for sure.

Treasure Chests: Don't forget about this one either! Yes, defeating an Isgebind gives you their precious loot but don't ignore all the chests lying around too. These chests may also house those things you need so keep your eyes open!

Elemental Weapon Skills: When battling an Isgebind, players are advised to use Elemental Weapon Skills as much as possible. Not only do these skills deal effective damage but they also increase the drop rate of key items too. It's two birds with one stone!

Trust Magic: In this game, you should never fight alone. Especially if there's an NPC that specializes in magic damage and can help assist you during battles. Leverage their power to give yourself a more efficient time when farming.

Amber Light: Save up on time extensions or temporary items by doing this step first. Prioritize chests that emit amber light as they're guaranteed to have these types of things.

Red Chests: These chests are your main priority! And for good reason too, as they tend to contain Isgebind Hearts more often than not.

↖ Collaborate and Conquer

Just know that you're not the only one out there trying to get what you need! Don't ruin relationships or make enemies with other players who also seek Isgebind Hearts. Work together and everyone will be happy!

↖ Get Technical

Swift Reflexes: Don't hesitate, claim the chest as soon as it appears so no one else can have it.

Proc Techniques: Increase the drop rates using abilities or weapon skills at the right time during battle.

Gear & Abilities: Be prepared before going into battle and equip appropriate gear for an easier encounter.

↖ Be Wise About Your Inventory

The value of Isgebind Hearts can change depending on market dynamics in-game. Make sure you gather enough information about current trends before deciding whether to farm them or purchase them instead.

In Conclusion

We know how much of a struggle farming for these hearts can be but following these tips might just save you hours of frustration and regret.
