Random Question Thread XIX: Welcome to Flavor Country

[Nightfyre]

Cleaving for 3 KI in a zone with 9 is a waste anyway. Keep up time while farming? Sure. Cleave for KI? Nah.

[Aragon of Odin]

Hmm, depending on your stone supplies, I do think 3 can cleave. If you can get lights capped, I believe you can cleave. If you have the proper atmas, nin can aeolian edge cleave, brd can do it too after sleeping the mobs etc. Yes admittedly, it's easier with more people, but it's doable with 3.

I guess my team has always been more creative in our "cleave" since we didn't have a war to begin with, so dnc aedge+ mnk cata cleave were very much how we started our cleaves. But then again of course you could cleave with thf too.

Easier to farm the KI's when only targeting one NM then cleaving and hoping to get them.

is there a reasonable way to farm time solo nin/war? i can set up for aedge but i'm not sure i can get tp fast enough. i'd love to farm some time and stay in the zone for the KI and boss kills. otherwise i'm prob stuck farming trigs and deboxing them and popping the boss one at a time.

Not sure if has been asked however anyone else having issues with Apradar? Site seems to be down and I assume that is tied to certain features of program and that is causing an issue, Anyone have any info on it? thank you.

[Francisco]

Can I buy Heroes of Abyssea for someone else's account without giving them my CC info?

[nikia]

buy it with their account and just give them a ten dollar bill?

[Guild43]

Is there a guaranteed way to get a fanatic's drink/powder?

[Yugl]

Cactaur @ Altep. I *think* Briareus too.

[Scrooge]

Dragua gives you a Fanatics Powder everytime.

[Tahona]

It's bad that i don't remember this just finished Briareus like 2 days ago... but pretty sure he gives sprinter's drink

You can buy fanatic's drinks.

[Elysian]

enhancing caps for phalanx/barspells?

[Eldelphia]

Can you alliance across different zones in Salvage? As you can in Limbus?

Yhel Jacket: Magic Crit Rate +4, (+5 for HQ)

Would you still bother with a Yhel now that Goetia Coat +2 exists? I'm interested to see how much peeps are criting too but I'd probably go for the guaranteed result.

[Yugl]

Use the +2. That jacket does nothing now.

[Hyriu]

No, can only send alliances invites in the same zones(Apollyon) but not like BR and SSR.

[Eldelphia]

Hmm the reason I asked is because Apollyon is the region and NW/SW etc are the different zones no? My assumption is you can't alliance in Salvage cos that would be way too convenient :D

That was my assumption too but further down, someone was asking about magical crits...

[Yugl]

Last I recall, Magic Crits are an additional 10MAB + MAB DMG Gear. In order for the jacket to beat the 2MAB (Ignoring the INT for now) on average, BLM needs +40%MAB.

(MAB)*(% Proc) = MABAvg

(MAB)*(.04) = 2
MAB=40

This is giving the advantage to Magic Crit DMG in several ways. One is that it doesn't count other magic crit proc gear, which makes the 4% more attractive than if you had other pieces. The other reason, as mentioned, is that it doesn't check for INT.

[Scrooge]

Negative. Apollyon and Temenos are part of the "Limbus" Region. Kind of like how Valkurm Dunes and Konschtat Highlands is part of the "Zulkheim" Region.
