Whats the 90 item needed for Masamune?

Isgebind's Heart x75

when KI farming in tahrongi, we were unable to get the hecteyes KI from gold chest after capped lights and 4 hours of mass bat-slaughter (completed three lacovie, one glavoid, 3/4 glavoid on three people, and 3/4 chloris on three people). does the hecteyes KI drop from chest or is random shitty luck random and shitty?

edit: it was my understanding that all the KI from the visions areas dropped from gold chest, and i'm just wanting to be sure.

Just bad luck

[Rehn]

Unlucky for sure. The only key that doesn't drop AFAIK would be twisted tonberry crown.

Would epona's ring be good for WS? Or would a stat+7 ring beat it out?

[Byrthnoth]

Any idea where this theory came from? It doesn't make any sense, why would a level 3 property only work with 1 out of the 4 elements in it? I've also heard that level 3 properties just plain don't count for gorgets and you have to use one of the secondary ones.

IIRC, it was tested ages ago with relic weaponskills when Gorgets were first introduced. Theory is that some weaponskills only have level 2 properties (like Fragmentation/Distortion), so they had to make level 2 properties work somehow. Level 3 and 1 properties can be read as nicely single-element, so they only work with those elements. I'm fairly sure the testing on this was solid.

Depends which WS (obviously not Asuran if anyone still uses that, potentially not on Evisceration etc due to 8 hit round limit and THF's high average/round already) but I'd generally say as a hand-waving blanket statement that Epona's should win on WS too.

Good place to Diremites on Wind Trial?

Aydeewa is kinda suck now with all the spawn chages.

[Raen Ryong]

Might just say Abyssea - Uleg and just burn through them.

Edit: Wrong thread, meant to put in What's Better

[cdgreg]

got paged, and with my luck will probably be the last one on this page too:

1.) I haven't done anything in new zones other than kill bosses, what's the best way to farm blm body + hand seals? Quest, nm, or dominion?

2.) Does adding more goetia+2 pieces enhance the set bonus further, or is 2 pieces the same as 3?

Absolute delay reduction cap? Not just haste; I mean DW as well.

Think it was said to be 80%, iirc

Started farming solo Peak Pugils for RDM body, question is: Is that the best way to farm them or is there a better way? Bonus of there is RDM hands and BLM hands possible drop also. Thank you for the assist.

100% solo? If not, what jobs do people that can help you have, and what jobs do they want seals for? There is no real "Best way evar" for any job, since all NMs drop 4 seals.

Dusting off WAR for fell cleaving farming, haven't played it in years. What's a decent ws set for RR/Cleave/Cyclone these days?

[Burne]

Has anyone did some serious testing on Rhongomiant WS numbers?

About to start working on chloris items and would be interested in knowing how well it does.

Thx

It was concluded to be a Wheeling Thrust+1. In other words, as long as we can rely on RR, Drakesbane should always triumph. Supplementing this claim is the fact that it is VIT based.

From FFXIah. Anyone has idea how that happened? From what is written it was VV+RR atma only...
