Random Question Thread XVIII: Just an Ordinary Sword of Legend

[Lyramion]

has anyone duo'd crein-croin? Wondering if i can (slowly) duo my Calabolg MNK+WHM.

Fight is really simple. Croins Movement is slow, charmed ppl arent fast either.

But just as a note: DeathGnash will do YourCurrentHP -1 damage, which is then modified by -PDT. Very easy to keep a lot of HP with a few PDT%. This seems to be true for a lot of Abyssea mobs "ThroatStab" abilities like Hedjedjets Hell Scissors etc.

which hachimakis are worth it to keep to unlock some weaponskills on certain jobs if any?

[Massimo]

Great Katana, Katana and Staff.

[Gokku]

is there a dex of agi cap for SA/TA ? or can i just pile tons of it on?

[rog]

No cap.

[Byrthnoth]

There is no cap, but you need to balance DEX/AGI with Attack.

[Gokku]

uhh minus my atk being a little low since im not in abyssea , im looking @ 87+ 61 dex *before cour / RR atma* and 81 + 61 Agi * cour / GH* for TA and SA that should be solid amounts correct?

[Raen Ryong]

And Haste if you're doing it solo!

[Karbuncle]

And Haste if you're doing it solo!

Balancing haste+DEX/shit for solo!

For instance, You can swap out your Rings/Earrings/Back/(sometimesNeck) for Solo-SA as they generally don't effect your attack speed... and doing so can add some damage quite nicely! :O

Though, for solo SA/TA you can find mix and match pieces that offer both DEX/AGI/Haste, or items that just plain rape haste for DPS with DEX/AGI for the added raw damage (For instance, Raider's Feet+2 have 15AGI, the bonus to your Trick Attack from that will overwhelm the added 3/4% haste on your feet would have to DPS upkeep)

Just need to find a good mix.

and avoid Hecatomb like the plague for Solo SA/TA

Does it make much difference brewing with gimp/under levelled skills for ele-ws?

[Sprint]

going to have capped acc and such with 999 dex. brewed on a mules sam, hadnt been touched since level 75 leeched it to 87. was doing 40k+ jinpu with gimp skills and no gear. just using hagun and atma of gales/smiting blow

While I haven't brewed with an under-leveled skill, the fact that you're getting 50tp/tick and ele ws's never missing, I'd say you should be safe. ymmv, though.

Max crit rate augment on wivre gorgets in Abyssea?

[Esvedium]

What's the max level difference between me and a mob to keep it Easy Prey? Trying to find out which job to sync to for trials.

[Kalisa]

Just coming back to the game casually after a six-month break.

For a Dancer with no friends/no LS, what Magian daggers should I be aiming for? I have a Parazonium built up to its level 80 incarnation, but never settled on a main hand--Fusetto (which kind, the STP+15?), Att Kila, Acc Kila? Something new entirely? Is the OA2-4 Parazonium still what I should be working for on my offhand? Do people pug Walk of Echoes at all so I might eventually get a Daka?

I know shit's situational and I should probably collect 'em all eventually, but I need a priority/focus.

Thanks in advance.

if it is EP to a 75, its still EP to a 90.

Its not a linear answer wiki link. See the chart for granted exp near the bottom.

[Thalandor46]

Is there some sort of trick to Tunga? We can take him down with significant effort, but dear lord he is a pain in the ass...

[Yugl]

What is the best RDM melee weapon combo and how does it degrade from there? I assume Almace + some other weapon are the top contenders, but I doubt I'll see Almace.

I assume...
Almace
WoE Sword
Twilight dagger
Joytoy

Are the contending weapons.

Seeing as all that skill gives is acc/att, as long as you have enough to get the WS, the rest doesn't matter.

+3%.

Chainspell at 75, 50 and 25%. If it starts in casting mode (back-to-back casts), you need to trigger a chainspell to get it normal.

If you have Slowga on, can't keep hate. Stay on top of erasing your DDs and you should be fine, maybe let the mages get slowed if you want.
