[Carraway]

Pretty much what Arthars said; we go full casual between progression patches.

[Arthars]

being said, you can never say no to glows tho! im sure carraway and lilaea is doing nexus!

[Serenseven]

The most excruciating part of this grind is hardcarrying shit DPS healers through trivial training dummy content.

I can (usually) compensate for bad DPS, even if there's three of them. But I can't do jack about getting two healers who don't know their Thyrus from their anus.

[Carraway]

Haven't yet run into a healer who couldn't do Cape Westwind, thankfully.

[ilifin]

I'm sure we'll run into more nerds that do half my DPS with equal gear, Carraway

[kisada]

i don't know how much light you get for a 50 uncapped or 80 il wolves' den match but at 30 cap it's feeble light and you can just stand there and die and finish match in about 10 seconds. if the higher level ones offer more than feeble it would take you about 1:10 to get out of the gates and be dead and ready to leave.

only issue is that matchmaking system is complete shit so you'd need 8 players of similar rank to do it.

[Arthars]

dont you need to wait for 1 min before match starts?

edit: oh yea u mentioned it. so that still makes westwind faster :X

[Madeline]

another tracker application, this one should work well even for those who couldn't get the other one to work.

a member of my company wrote it. no UI unless you want to view things in the console. everything is fed into the log and given how/when you want to receive it. check the commands readme for stuffs. I suggest //autoupdate off and using //showcur as you want updates!

oh, can be used for normal sb stuff as well, gotta turn off the filters though.

enjoy!

It only gave me 2 stats for 3 stats novus

25 parry 27 acc 23 det > 26 parry 28 acc 23 det

Im going to respec parry to crit, and the npc only need an empty sphere scroll and it will xfer all your current stats to the new scroll. Then you go to black brush to remove the unwanted, and reinfuse your new stats

dont have to re-do all 75 yay :D I have like 50 alex now anyway, only need 25 to respec parry to crit

should still get enough for ninja by the time i get ninja animus >.>

[Seravi Edalborez]

Ok, that makes sense.

23 * [1+ 0.5(31/44)]

Basically, Det (and close enough to PIE) is a 3.5% increase going from Novus->Nexus instead of 5% with the stats that cap at 44. Which means you don't get a bonus point until 29 (edit: or maybe 30. this might be 3.33% instead since Det has typically always been 2/3rds point value compared to "core" secondaries). Reiterating: for stats that cap at 44 you will get a bonus point at 20+ and 2 bonus points at 40+.

Maybe just making the math fit the numbers, need more data points.

[Taint]

Does nexus need to be complete to respect?

[Arthars]

according to npc, no.

respec explanation for novus and nexus is exactly the same by the old man

bring new scroll (MUST BE EMPTY) and he xfer for you, and you go black brush to remove unwanted

Ok, that makes sense.

So if i do 23 acc, 29 crit(or 30), 23 det, i SHOULD get 24 acc 31 crit, 23 det?

[Seravi Edalborez]

Edit: Derp I misread lol

You want (29 or 30) det, 20+ acc, 20+ crit if you want bonus points for all 3 but your example works.

44cap (+5%): Crit Acc Speed Parry
Bonus at +20 and +40.

33cap (+3.5%?): PIE
Bonus at +29/30?

31cap (+3.33%?): Det
Bonus at +30?

Really all this means is that the max bonus points you can have on your weapon is +3, with +2 for most 3-stat Novus due to Det being skimped out on when going 3-stat.

Whats the Respect process?

[Arthars]

according to NPC:

Note that i only clicked the modify option after i got my nexus.....so maybe you cant respec novus yet if you didnt finish nexus(just saw in patch notes)

For both weapon, bring an empty scroll to old man. He will then transfer your current stats (novus's 75 stats) into the new scroll. Go to black brush bonfire and remove unwanted stats. Then reinfuse the new stats you want with materia and alexs. Bring scroll back to old man.

For novus, thats it.

For nexus, he will bump it to 115 stats, according to Seravi's theory.

spamming lights now.... i'll do the actual respec process tmr (fucking 6am yo!) gotta sleep after ifrit

[Ratatapa]

i see

[Sephiroth]

So with respecing can you remove just 1 of a stat or is it the entire stat category? I want to put a point into PIE so I have 251 with SCH.

[Arthars]

remove stats 1 by 1 just like when your on animus and infusing/removing stats

i guess no one bothered to check "removing stats" when they are on animus huh!!! XD

[Sephiroth]

That's good to know. I'm surprised they've made it that easy given how painful the rest of the quests are.

[Edelweiss]

The Hub-ler indicates that it's just one meld per.
