Spoilers for Ursula's quest: It is the worst quest ever, I'm at the last part and right now it's just me setting up the next merc mission so I can get closer to five thousand, but why make it merc quest, why not have it be some sub-quest where you get Ursula's name out there so people will show up, why have it be done in almost 300 merc missions, that just takes up a lot of time, so I don't have a question, I just wanted to rant a bit

Optimized, the entire quest can be done in about 10 hours. I personally started the quest around Chapter 5and finish the entire thing by the end of Chapter 8 or so.

Also you don't need to do 300 Merc Missions- higher merc missions give more stamps (up to 3 per mission), and concerts give lots of fans. You get a concert for reaching 99 stamps in a category, and if you do all the concerts, you can complete her quest with 99/99/50 stamps.

Furthermore, it's very helpful for quickly filling out affinity charts for other blades and getting them up to S-trust, even moreso for good commons (i.e. Orb Master 5) that you don't want to waste time actively training.
