Lovely, I knew I didn't make it up <.< For you two:

[Kaope]

To be honest, I don't really see why you would duo it with two jobs that can solo it. The RDM/BLU method is damn near impossible to fail, granted you're actually paying attention to how long you've been in the BC. I would think guaranteeing one win and having a crap-shoot at a second shot would be the better option.

Just IMO

How does a RDM/BLU solo this ENM? I know there was a video in Stage6... but I never had the chance to watch it before they took it down

I saw it. If I remember right it was just full on defense setup to minimize empty seed damage, killing the aqua MR with a sword, anima on the pop, and chainspell bludgeon on the red MR. It took quite a while too I think.

[23:31] <shaddix> as in if i get 5 second recast with one piece of gear, and 5.7 second recast with one piece of gear, are they effectively the same?

Do you still remember what equipments the guy was using? I'm assuming he ate taco as well?

[tessy cat]

You lose AH and DBox items, but it should keep stored items. Stored AF is controlled by the key item, and since that migrates with you, it shouldn't be an issue.

I'm going to cry if you're wrong because I have too much AF to take it all out of storage lol... Might just take the important ones out just incase. >.>

I can confirm. You don't lose stored AF when you transfer or things like ABC's stored using Sagheera. I didn't think about it when I initially transferred servers and was relieved to find I didn't screw myself. Just heed the warnings about AH and delivery box items, everything else you'll take with you.

I'm pretty sure it involved wearing down the red one with Bio 2 as well (it hits for 0 damage, but the DoT still works). I saw it quite a while ago though, so I might be wrong.

No, not as far as I've been able to tell.

[SamanosukeShiva]

swapping to MND gears for chivalry, is it worth it?

Where could I find a full list of all the items that can be stored via Item/Event Item Storage NPC?


Thanks

Store TP Question: When are trailing digits rounded off?

75 MNK w/ Destroyers, 300+48 Delay
174/fist gives tp = 5+([174-180]*1.5)/180 = 4.95 per hit, rounds to 4.9

How much StoreTp do I need to reach 5.0 per hit?

If no rounding yet, 4.95*1.02 = 5.049 => 5.0 and I'm set with Brutal and Ecphoria.
If rounded already, 4.9*1.03 = 5.047 => And I need one more.

Hurricane wing, what element? I got in an argument today with some rdm at nidhogg about this.

Scroll down to "Storable Sets" in both cases.

Just use cheap DEF gear and eat a Taco. The most important thing about the BC is to pay attention to how long you've been in.

Enter the BC, full buffs, Bio2 middle MR, whittle away at Aqua with your sword while maintaining buffs and Bio2 on main MR. When Aqua is at 1%, leave him be, and just maintain buffs/Bio until there's ~3 minutes left in the BC. 3 minute mark, finish off Aqua, pop an anima on the spawn, Chainspell Bludgeon main MR until dead, who should be at ~50-60% HP by the time you get to this point.

Easy stuff 8)

A few random questions:

How do I get the different flames from Den of Rancor?

http://images.wikia.com/ffxi/images/...nofRancor4.png

Is that the way to get the uggalpih offering?

What are merits should a nin get for non HNM purposes?

Thanks

The main one I usually check is http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Image ... ancor7.png

That's the entrance in Yhoat near Ifrit's Cauldron. Just go in and to the right past the Pucks. You'll zone in at this section: http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Image ... lepih3.png

Nin Merits, I'd go with Crit Hit Rate 4/4, HP/MP depending on jobs you have, Str seems good & Subtle Blow. Ninja Tool Expertise I guess might be good, but I dunno how reliable it is.

[Kitsumi]

Can someone please direct/post me both haste setups and store tp setups for endgame sam? I tried KI/Alla and looked in both Wiki's but found nothing =/.

Thanks

Ok, few more questions in regard to this ENM.

1) How much damage does Bludgeon actually do?
2) Do I need to use lolchr for Bludgeon's modifier during Chainspell-Bludgeon?
3) What spells did you set for blu magic?
4) I'm assuming full buffs = only stoneskin? I doubt anyone can have all the buffs up with all the Empty seed-spams.

And now, another question. Rdm's paralyze vs NIN's Jubaku. The other day, our ls tried to lowman JoJ. I used 140++ MND for para1, it landed and yet the para proc'ed like shit compared to the NIN's jubaku. How could this be? Is there some proof that stacking mnd actually does shit for para?

If you've not done the level 20 mini Avatar fights, and you throw your mini fork away, can you get another one?
I'm guessing yes... But I don't want to loose the ability to warp there!
