Am I just doing it wrong or am I just THAT unlucky?

I've been farming the items for class change in the cave of darkness, I had gotten one earlier in the jungle of illusion which turned into a Paladin's Proof, I used it and made Duran a Paladin. I went to the cave of darkness to farm the others for my party, and got 4 new ???? seeds I turned them in and ALL four were Paladin's proof, I reloaded up my emulator and tried again and again, using different lead members and throwing out my old Proof and I always get the same result.

So someone please tell me, am I just not doing this right, or am I seriously so unlucky as to get 5 paladin's proofs in a row?

Sort of.... you have to try different places depending who your main character is. Jungle of Illusion is for Kevin or Carlie; as is the Mirage Palace. So if your main character is Duran or Angela, head to the Glass Desert or to Dragon's Hole. If it's Hawk (like mine) or Amazon-Lady-Whose-Name-I-Can-Never-Remember, go to Cave of Darkness or Dark Castle.

Rule of thumb is best place to farm items is the final areas of your main character's story.

Rise is my main character so I'm at the Cave of Darkness now, but I keep getting Duran's item for class change, despite him class changing. I'm just wondering if the game hates me so, or if there's a trick to ensuing you get someone elses item.

There's no trick I'm really aware of.... although I do remember that getting these seeds is a pain in the butt - after four hours of farming I STILL didn't get a Death Wolf Soul for Kevin so I went screw you and made him a Dervish instead as I had loads of the Demon Wolf Souls. Then guess what I started to get in abundance? :(

Best I can suggest is keep farming. Patience is totally rewarded by watching Rise start murdering things with Jormungand.

Another tip is to go to different inns and try to grow the wanted item. This will help. Or use set another character to grow the seeds. Use variations, or else you will get the same item

Ok that's good to know, I was just thinking I was the most unlucky guy in the world or something.

I experienced this problem awhile ago. All you have to do to resolve it is either:

A) Save @ an in Inn, Reset the game and then try planting the seed again
if that doesn't work then

B) Fight enemies until a treasure chest drops, open the chest, save the game and then reset it. Then try replanting the seed again.

Yeah, I think they're random drops. I recall one game where I kept getting Lord's Proof instead of Paladin's Proof. It just takes a while.
