    He stops to cast pretty frequently, so movement speed isn't really necessary. It can be helpful if you're having trouble getting out of range of the -ga spells, though. If you don't mind pinning, he's fairly simple. I usually kite him around the mountain by Conflux 5, nuking when he uses single-target spells, and getting out of range for the -ga. At some point he'll switch from damage spells to AoE debuffs, and then he's an easy pin at the flowers nearby.

    Being an idiot doesn't mean he made the numbers up. Not sure why the mob or items really matter, unless you plan on verifying his results, or want to add to it.

    I think this switch occurs when he uses a TP move, Promyvion Barrier. My Abyssite upgraded again after I made the connection though, so I couldn't check on another run. It's seriously a 5 minute fight, open with the MAB/MAcc Drink and Chainspell.

    It's also only 2 items who are already fairly close to eachother in drop rates. Nothing in that test excludes it from being a percentage increase. It's just not enough to be used for anything other than speculation, nor is any other test I've seen through the years.

    This is correct. It seems the empyrean WSs work the same as the relic ones in terms of their level 3 properties. If you make a light or darkness skillchain using 2 WSs of the Light or Darkness property, you cannot continue it. If you make a normal light or darkness skillchain (Fusion + Frag, Distortion + Grav), you can continue that with a weapon skill with the level 3 property (relic, empyrean, campaign-only WSs?).

    New Invidia cards have trouble with ffxi, drivers don't seem to like it. More information can be found in the tech section, but the short answer is if you bought the laptop in the last 5 years, it should run ffxi fine.

    The 400-series cards had problems, but the most recent set of drivers has 'fixed' them. I say 'fixed' because FFXI still drops frame rate in crowded areas or around teleport crystals on my 460, but it's not nearly as bad as it was pre-260.XX drivers.

    Question about elemental trial path, the one required "finishing blow" on ice path, would i still get 5 points on ice weather? I was told "no" in /tell.

    Edit: Or would it act like physical trial point by per member match trial path?

    You only get additional points from weather when the trial requires certain weather (day OR weather trials work also). So to answer your question, no.

    No direct answer to your question, but this got me looking into a -pdt set for monk.

    VIT/-PDT Taipan Fangs +1 (-9% PDT)
    Arhat's Jinpachi +1 (-6%PDT)
    Arhat's Gi +1 (-9%PDT)
    Darksteel Mittens +1 (-2%PDT)
    Jelly Ring (-5%PDT)
    Patronus Ring (-2%PDT) (or dark ring from aby-kon if you're lucky to have one better than patronus)
    Black Belt (-5%PDT)

    That'll give you -38%PDT and still leave give you 21% haste (blackbelt, tantra hose +2, fuma sune-ate). Nothing on that list is too hard to get, hardest would be tantra hose +2, which shouldn't be too hard, and even until you get them, you could have 20% from haidate or hose+1.

    Ditch darksteel+1 for aurore or ocelot...gain 2/3% haste at the expense of 2 pdt. Seems worth it?

    Or use Denali Wristbands for -2% DT along with evasion, str and att. Not necessarily recommending, just noting as another option.

    Where in the POL viewer folder is registered accounts for member list? My friend doesn't remember his password(cause it's saved) and I'm going to be using his mule.

    To those who have played FF7:

    Does this song sound familiar to you?

    This song has so many familiar elements in it, such as the way of how its arranged. The mystery feel to it, strong high's and low's and especially all the instruments (strong'ish violin and calm piano and several others).

    Have i gone crazy or why does this remind me of FF7... or something else possibly?
