here comes the irl card

oshit

[NynJa]

That's the irl card?

Are you kidding me?

You're on drugs son, I think you're just insecure about something

so you find it necessary to spend all your time upgrading Empyrians

I think its kinda stupid that the guy who buys pop items with a ridiculous drop rate, like those for Visions NM's,

to "save time", is saying using brew's is "easy mode". Good logic

there buddy.

[matix]

well 1min repop is even better than!

[Draylo]

I wonder why it can't land slowga on me and stone 5 does 68 dmg. Lol BG.

Not trying to backseat mod but isn't making sock accounts when you were banned against the rules? Why do you even continue to post here lol

[Clash Perez]

I have no idea about what has happened since they server-jumped, but back when they were on Quetzalcoatl Pchan and Mdkuser were separate people/accounts/whatever.

pchan got banned and mdkuser gave him his BG account password/whatever. It was suggested a while ago when mdkuser started making pchan-ish posts, but this is the first time he referred to himself (pchan) with a first person pronoun.

I don't personally care, as I can tolerate quite a bit of assholery as long as the person is correct and thus never really had a problem with pchan that I can remember. I do remember wishing he'd show his data more often, but I don't remember him being proved wrong about something he claimed to be entirely sure of.

Quickest way to build fame to level 2 to start Bygrid quest?

[Pandorablue]

Quickest way to build fame to level 2 to start Bygrid quest?

1. (Optional) Complete all the level 1 quests at least once.
2. Repeat Chumimi quest ad infinitum.
3. While doing this, turn in the picture quest once per game day.

This is how I got to level 6. The Chumimi quest, from the time you zone in to the time you zone back out, takes ~5 minutes (for me that was using DNC with +37% movement speed)

Buying pops as opposed to farming the pop - Saving potentially 10minutes depending on if you have TH for something that's not a challenge, just time consuming = easymode

Using a Brew to kill an nm as opposed to killing it normally - Saving 10-30minutes, making it soloable, etc = easymode

How do you think those two are the same?

oh, oh, oh, pick me! It's because you have an erase in your party! Goddamn you are clever.

Buying pops removes from the challenge of loading TH procs on a mob, making it more difficult since you have to let the mob live longer or some shit...

But your logic states its ok to save time if you're not brewing NM's, just saving time by buying pop items, because someones really going to buy an apad/orthrus/hydra NM off AH, buy a brew, then brew one NM down. If you're brewing anything, chances are you are NOT solo...but actually want to save time.


oh, and by the way, it shouldnt take more than 3 min per NM's pop item, unless youre really unlucky. And furthermore, buying a orthrus/apad/alfie pop set and attempting to brew it wouldnt work. You'd have to be a moron to go pop those NM's without covering all 13 red!!'s, which once again..not solo.

[Plow]

yeah knocking out 5 first echelon's in 5 mins is pretty nice...

I didn't state any propositions of my own, nor my own conclusion, that was your logic buddy. Was just showing you how absurd it is to apply the former to the latter when talking about "playing ffxi the right way" or w.e the fuck you were trying to get across lol.

[NynJa]

Actually you missed my blatant mockery, but wtvz brah.

Only SE can dictate what the right and wrong way is to do anything in this game...

[Ophannus]

Cataclysm > Leaden Salute by a good measure.

Smiting Blow + Cosmos + Griffon's Claw's Claw are the best for both (assuming Griffon's Claw works for gun WS with a staff equipped.) Martial Staff > Pluto's Staff for Cataclysm (although Pluto's Still works alright especially considering you'll start each fight with 200TP+ probably,) Pluto's Staff + Martial Gun for Leaden Salute.

For PLD/RDM with Pluto Staff like +11 MAB from gear, would Atma of the Ultimate be better than Griffon Claw? How many Dragua's could I kill with 1 Brew assuming I freeze at a Martello and everything goes accordingly? 5-6? Assuming it dies in 2-3 WS? Also how much HP does Dragua have?

[Fievel]

He has quite a bit of hp, will probably take 4 cata per kill, possibly 5 depending on resists and such.

If you're quick you can fit in 6 per brew

[Ophannus]

Well the math before said Cata should be doing around 40-50k dmg, so does he really have like 300k HP? And confirmation that Griffon Claw>Ultimate for Cata?

[Fievel]

40k-50k wont happen on dragua, you'll be at like 23k-30k.

[Ophannus]

40k-50k wont happen on dragua, you'll be at like 23k-30k.

2 pages back someone said this though:

I'm not sure what Cataclysm's second term is or the cap, but I know when I was brewing Drag /w you the other day, I ended up hitting an IT wyvern aggro for 64,000+ damage. I guess since the mods/ftp are known, it wouldn't be too hard to find the cap. (I believe Drag has 50% MDT, so my 100tp Cataclysms where hitting around ~55k normally, more /w extra TP.)

[Fievel]

55k/2 = 27.5k on dragua(50% mdt)

[Radec]

With brew, GC is always better than a MAB atma.
