If they're 6/6 region they will attack the strongholds it's just unbearably slow.
You have to be the savior of the whole region. Go kill any and all attackers every where so their focus is attack and not defending.
Including killing all generals that spawn in the stronghold even when there is no campaign battle.
Recruiting freelancers probably helps too, I guess, never done it personally

Fresh 8 today, having done quite a bit of battle content in the game, and realizing I hadn't ever actually completed the abyssea questline to "abyssite of the cosmos" level. Picked that up, zoned, and immediately dinged Rank 8. I've got an export from XIC if anyone's curious.
No Medal of Altana, barely any abyssea quests done; just what's absolutely necessary, with the exception of one RL day where I was all gung-ho about completing a bunch of quests and did maybe 8 and never thought about it again. I hate missions in general and tend to avoid them as long as I can.
I've got every combat/magic skill capped as high as she goes.
Primes: 2x S3 2x S4 1x S5 and some S1's.
A lot of REMAs that probably don't matter.
I don't like the way this tracks Monstrosity, as it's a little misleading. I've got 11.4M EXP in Mostrosity. I'm tracking that separately in a spreadsheet; I was focused on unlocking as much as possible for about a week during last month's campaigns. Not sure if it was necessary, given how I dinged, but hindsight. Before that, I only had 1 species at 60 and 1 at 33, the slimes from DQ, the race instincts, and that was about it. <1M EXP.
Stack of what I've done recently (most recent first)
The last 2 abyssea quests
Fishing.. I don't think I caught any new fish, though.
Monstrosity yesterday during Gain EXP, 7 mobs from 1-15, then 2 unlocks at 30, nothing crazy.
Cerberus Title
Discerning eye a few times, don't think I hit any threshold title-wise; trying to figure out how many I had done back in the day. Still don't know.
Adenium Bench grind
Started raising a chocobo (first ever) 3 days ago
Did ROEs, mostly NM hunts, to get that total to 800 completed.
MMM to 50+ clears, chased random titles from the bard
Chased some HTMB titles on VD over last weekend (4 I think?)
Divine Might redo, Divine Might HTMB VD
Wyrmking Descends
Finished the last 5 Meeble Burrows things I needed to Rank 3
Changed nations and did 2 Missions each in Bastok, San d'Oria
Bought like 18 titles worth of CP items as I switched, too.
Hunted a bunch of NM titles, maybe 10 or 12? I was missing a fair amount of those, and it was a fun thing to do right after reset.
Pre Update
Monstrosity, roughly 9-10M EXP
All Empy Gear to +3
The "easy" mog garden titles: 1000 mining, 1000 weeds, yeeztog hire
ACP Complete from the goblin KI stage
Bout title for the first time; totally different approach to bout than my usual
Golden Shovel and Ygnas from ~50/99 adoulin quests
Edit: XIChecklist Export below, playtime is 1692 days

Been Rank 8 for 3 months now. Hopefully attempting a master trial tonight. I have so much done, I can't even understand how I'm not MR9. It HAS to be the Master Trials.
Balthor, pick any of your low-hanging objectives that are just a few points from being 100% complete and complete them.
There's like 4 quests he can easily bang out to be complete with quests. As well as 4 or so NM/HTMB titles
I'm assuming the magic your missing is from not having mastered jobs.
Voidwalker Titles are a pain... Especially Yilbegan
I'd wager the biggest "block" atm is not having done any chocobo racing.
You have alot more overall points than me, mainly due to monstrosity, but you're missing alot more titles.

Here's my checklist at Rank 8, less points then Balthor but I got a lot more content done. Other things I've kept track of that don't show:
Completed every BCNM, KSNM, HKCNM, SKCNM, ENM, ISNM, ANNM, SCNM
Every arch dynamis boss including all 8 diabolos
10/16 garrisons
1686 days playtime
Don't remember actually fully clearing expeditionary force but I have the title
Every side quest done other than a few furniture ones and Bastok chocobo riding game
All AF quest completed with coffers (This can be tracked by Vingijard if we want to add it to XIChecklist)
No completed Escutcheon made, I'm on stage 3 - Title would be helpful to be included in XIChecklist too at the bottom part I'm sure it counts for a lot
R15 Relic/Mythic/Empy made but only stage 4 prime

I'm past you in dumb things... Mazes for Maze Overlord, ~ 150 master levels, and claim slips? Try buying all the sets from sparks for claim slips. I think you're in a unique position that you're INCHES away from MR9, and it'd be really interesting if "# of KI's" pushes you over from additional claim slips. Who knows
I TRULY hope that it's not playtime... I'm over 2000 days, and you're at 1600 something
You really should be 9 already.. something dumb is missing
Also, how did your team tackle august? 3x COR cheese? Atomos cheese or just gravity cheese? or 2x RNG's?
EDIT: What's your # of REMA? maybe that counts?
I have:
- 6 relic - aegis/ghorn lv 99 not afterglow, gun scythe r15, bow sword lv 75 - planning to get them all soon just since there's a unique cutscene on em
- 5 Empy - Twash/Almace/Calad/Arma/Daurd r15'd all but almace lv 85
- 5 Mythic - Carn/Gasra/Tiz/DP/Burt, all R15 but burt lv 80
- 2 Ergon - Idris + Epeo R15
- 9 Aeonic - GH/Aeneas/Trish/Tishtry/Heishi/Doji/Failnot/Fomal/Marsyas, R15'd all except fail-not and heishi r1
- 4 Stage 5 prime - bow/gun/dagger/horn, 1 stage 4 (spear), 1 stage 3 (shield)
Some people track all their reforged armor as well... I'm lacking there.
I'd wager a player like you is r30 on most Sheol Gaol items as well
EDIT #2:
That's gross... I just noticed you did the 2x Eyepatches for Emporox. Insert Michael Jordan .gif "Stop it, get some help"
It's bugged and records you've traded the eyepatches when you haven't.

I've only been doing coalition assignments, monster rearing on pets I don't have KIs for, and opening limbus chests from ???. Unfortunately I wasn't using this addon prior to dinging 7.
Vana'bout was my most recent title and reaching over 40 coalitions may have given me the ding or the great dhalmel/lynx memento KI from rearing (same day got both KIs).
I've also just been doing daily mog garden node harvesting even after rank 7 on all (been that way for years now)
Hope this helps:

Because you're collecting pennies and they're collecting quarters.
You both have 50 of them but ones value is much higher. Not super complicated.

I thought I was inches away 3 months ago but here we are, just got to keep going. I'll do the claim slips really no reason not to

Did COR Atomos gravity cheese, it really wasn't bad just got to control August good and don't let shark kill everyone

I got more missions done, more NM titles, Odyssey titles, etc.
The only battle content that I did not do comparing to their list is Meeble Burrows, so that's one of the answers?

My new mule finished Sandy missions, ToAU, and RotZ. Also did cop up through the U/O fight. Building Imps for SoA. Did RoV up to the point where it is blocked by my lack of WotG. Ran around the past and got all the warps, but haven't started the missions yet. I'm really not looking forward to them, even though they have the best reward.
Still rank 1, under 6 days playtime. ML18 COR

Anything I should test since I'm freshly rank 8? What do y'all want to know? My Campaign Medal is Allied Ribbon of Glory (4th one); I could change nations and de-rank that to test some stuff, or I could reset AF memory and use that to test some other stuff? I've done very little since my rank up, besides collect the 1 map I was missing, spend some trust points, and gain 3 wing skill to 9.

if you get a derank, repeat the AF quest until you are 1 quest away from ranking up.
and increase one of these to confirm how much/if they contribute to ranking:
- Ergon Locus
- obtain more voidwatch atmacite / periapt
- increase atmacite level
- increase vorseal level (not unlocking new ones by quests etc, but can do domain invasion to unlock more)
I'll try to update checklist today to include cor rolls / pup attachments.
wanted to include combat/magic skills but couldnt find a way to determine 'actual' level since equipped gear will mess it up
edit: fk it i updated for cor pup quick, someone try it since i dont have any pup attachments (must be on COR or PUP to update)
It works, switching to COR and PUP updates the list. I had no idea I'm missing a Spiritreaver head and a bunch of attachments...
I only found one attachment I'm actually missing. It's still showing Mana Tank, Disruptor, Auto-Repair Kit, Vivi-valve, Shock Absorber, Mana Booster, Mana Jammer, Accelerator, and Stabilizer as missing.
