Random Question Thread XVIII: Just an Ordinary Sword of Legend

[Fievel]

Anything special about Titlacauan? Looking to farm +2 jewels with as few people as possible, will I need more than tank healer grellow?

tank healer grellower should work, just kite when the tank is charmed. Watch out for Hadal Summons, it may have just been a glitch before but the burn from it stayed on us even after we were dead, so if we were raised we just dropped dead again. If tank goes down just kite till he HP's and gets back, reallly realllllllly simple to kite around the rock right next to pop.

Edit: FOR WHY DOES ROG ALWAYS BEAT ME

Is there some extra trick to the abyssea grauberg quest with the ominous skull? I got the skull first and then opened the quest, but the npc won't take the skull. Do I actually have to rekill it? It just mentions needing to trade the skull, I tried zoning but still nothing.

Probably because i usually camp the thread, and i never have anything better to do. This would have been funnier if i posted it within a few minutes of your post

I am not really near an actual computer to find out gear and what not and I highly doubt anyone just KNOWS this but:

On WHM main, is it possible to CAP CureCast/Fast Cast (those are the same when casting a cure yes?) AND Cure Potency?

Thanks for any help!

Also, Cap is 50% for both yes? Thanks again!

Thinking about doing Ukonw/eaxe for WAR....what would be the minimum amount of people/jobs I would need to farm up Glavoid/Moth with? I was thinking WAR RDM BRD should be enough to Fell Cleave both pops, and for the days I can't get a BRD+RDM, would BLU be able to solo any of the NMs for their KIs?

Who cares? Just start in fc, then switch to potency.

If I cap fast cast I am worried that switching isn't going to register the Cure Pot. Also I've been using the Quick Magic Atma lately and I'd like to not have to worry about it.

Read as: Fucking lazy don't wanna make a switch if it can be done in 1 fell swoop.

Uh, lets see....

Using gear that i can think of off the top of my head, for a job i've never played past 37:
Staff 22%
14% body
hat+2 10%
roundel 5%
=51%

fc:
/rdm 15%
legs+2 12%
locket 5%
feet 15%
other stuff: much more than 3%

So yeah, i'd say so.

[Khajit]

Why wear roundel if using legs with cure pot on them when over the cap with roundel already?

If you played the job or werent dumb you would know that you dont have time to swap gear before the cure spells end...w

Yes you do. Go away.

[Nemesio]

What drops +2 item for NIN body?

Err, what? Legs are -12% cast time. Also, i was just trying to prove it was possible, not give the ideal set. I haven't cared enough since after visions to even look at the new gear for any jobs but rdm, blm, and war, let alone actually remember it all. If he wants a better set than that, he can look it up himself, i already answered the question. Unless he wants to ask what the ideal set is, then i'd probably figure it out, because i'm such an helper.

What? I do it just fine on rdm.

[Khajit]

meh. must be time to sleep then if im forgetting basic stats on gear

[xIndustrialxAngelx]

Safe low man setup for Sobek?

[Alkaline]

Random question: I played FFXI since release and I developed a pretty top-notch character and quit right before Abyssea, basically making all my accomplishments meaningless. Is it worth coming back now and will I be able to catch up?

[Nemesio]

Safe low man setup for Sobek?

Did safely for 20+ kills NIN WHM BLM. Had others sometime, but our lowest was that, and never had any problems.

Nah, you should be able to get all the basics within a week or two, and nothing else is terribly difficult to get either, if you can find a half decent group.

[Triplesea]

Assuming capped pearl and azure lights, is there a higher chance of getting a TE from a chest if a mob is killed by magic?
