Is there a spellcast rule for moon %? Or just phases?

[Fiarlia]

Edit: gave it a whirl and found one, yes.

<if MoonPCT="7">
<cmd>addtochat 204 %moonpct</cmd>
<cancelspell />
<return />
</if>

Just tried that real quick and it worked.

I'd imagine that the GT/LT variations work as well.

Nope.

[Fiarlia]

Yeah, was testing it and wasn't working right, debug shows

[1:55:09 PM] 3540:<0> PASSED: Depth: 4 <elseif MoonPCTGT="19">
[1:55:09 PM] 3540:<0> depth increased

When % is actually 5. =/

Back to advanced tags for Artemis' Medal.

[Radec]

		<elseif advanced="'%MoonPCT'&gt;'40'">
			<equip when="midcast">
				<neck lock="yes">Artemis' Medal</neck>
			</equip>
		</elseif>

Snipped from the spellcast thread a while back, I'm sure you can adjust where needed. I still haven't got around to getting an artemis, so haven't pinned down the exact conditions for use, but I don't imagine it'd take too long.

That's not working. As written, it gives an error and always equips artemis. Swithcing the " and ' around fixes the error, but never equips it.

Did you get the newest version of spellcast? There was a known issue with moon percentages and phases not working right.

[Fiarlia]

Ehh, just saw something, in advanced tags when doing equations or inequalities, don't use quotations around "numbers", doing so usually borks the code. Try changing advanced="'%MoonPCT'&gt;'40'" to advanced='%MoonPCT &gt; 40' and see if that works.

[rog]

That works. Weird, since all of my advanced rules have quotes around numbers...

Thanks.

Searched the last couple threads and didn't have much luck...

What is the respawn time for NM's like Heqet and the Peiste?

30-60, same as 90% of mobs in abyssea.

Yeah, it doesn't happen all the time and I really don't know why it happens. Though since I know it can be an issue, I generally err on the side of caution and never use quotes when comparing numbers in advanced rules.

So what's the best method to solo/box as much content as possible in Abyssea? My main character has mages galore, so I assume an alt with WAR, perhaps Monk, and another with NIN, perhaps THF, would go a long way? How hard is it do dual/tri-box with that sort of setup, and is there much I couldn't take down?

[Tsuko_Asura]

WHM MNK THF

[kamugi]

Does anyone know how Yurin: Ichi works? Or about how much subtle blow does it give?
Does it let you break the 50% subtle blow cap? is there really a 50% subtle blow cap?
And lastly, does equipment with subtle blow +5 mean it subtracts 5% of the tp you would normally give to the mob from each hit, or is it like store tp and 5 subtle blow is -0.5 tp/hit for the mob?

Assuming you're levelling the alt from scratch, make a galka MNK. With all the merit abyssites, you could literally just hit counterstance and leave it engaged on most mobs, switch over to WHM and let it punch them to death. Maybe make some hotkey to throw on a PDT or MDT set in emergencies. THF for treasure hunter if you want.

I have now gone 0/41 solo on Bhumi. Is there a way to proc any !! so I can get the abyssite easier? Or is this just completely shitty, random luck?

Do the other NM?

[Humblejoe]

You mean the one that one shotted me for 4900? Or the Xolotl one that I don't know if I can solo or not?

[Aerynlia]

If you proc red on the Corse it's 100% and it's not typically hard to get help because it drops an Atma and people like collecting those.
