Random Question Thread XX: The Aforementioned Goddamn Random Question Thread

[Zerk]

So.... I know this has been asked before, and never paid any attention to the answer as it was no concern to me. (and couldn't find the answer/question via search)

but anyways, the magian weapons with +10% WS damage. Are they main hand only, or will I still gain the +10% dmg while off-handing the weapon?

Yes, main hand only

[jmc]

Yes, main hand only

Thanks

Anyone have a sample Autoexec? I'm trying to learn to do this, but my friend can't even get it to load for her. She has it named Autoexec.xml in the plugins > Autoexec folder.

Which storylines can I bypass and which are still required when starting up a level 1 character? (For access to things and for the r/ex gear)

Also what sorta key item/access quest things do I NEED to do (can't be bypassed)
Fame - I'm sure I'll still need this.
Chocobo - Obviously need this.
Airship Pass / Kazham Pass - Need.

What else? Ugh I hate the idea of starting over, haha.

I posted in the last thread about this. I was asking why Glavoid was randomly seeming to have a blood weapon type effect and causeing us some issues and we finally figured it out. Glavoid was absorbing Retaliation from our WAR. That was why we werent showing any log damage or anything else.

At least mission rank 6 in your nation if you want to do dynamis.
Aht Urhgan access quest
OP/nation/aht urhgan warp quests
Zilart - Ro'Maeve/Sky accesss
CoP - do I need to list it all? Sea.
AU - at least up to 17 for Salvage access
Wings - just need to visit all zones once and register with a nation to be able to move anywhere.

Not sure if this was exactly what you were asking, but yeah...

Really only COP and ZM are still required for the earring and Ring and such. Everythign else can be bypassed really. ACP might need ot be bought if your ahrdcore about COR or some pet jobs. Fame isnt needed unless you wanna do Dynamis.

Abyssea is really all you need currently.

Anyone know the ID of Intulo's PH?

Does the "enhances jump effects" on drachen greaves apply to soul/spirit jump?

Do you still need this PM me, and i'll e-mail you mine (been gone 2 1/2 months, not sure if outdated, but would be a good start)
I assume you mean for spellcast

Shadow mantle or boxer's for Utsu macro on thf?

I may be totally wrong here and have no math to back it up at all. But boxer's seems like the common sense choice here.

The same way you always did, run out as far as you can to intercept the wave (past the trap), sleepga, nuke em down. You can easily get 4 gears/detectors dead before the chariots get to the martello and kill it, which is about 1000 credits. If you don't have blm, sch, rdm, or blu then you are kinda screwed.

Ya that's the problem, my mule is mainly THF only lol.

Going on earlier post, event="chat_emote_....." doesn't work.

[Gorki]

How much +stp does a 488 delay GAX need for a 5/6 hit?

Also, what axe's are WAR's using at 90 in abyssea?

[Kamil]

Easiest way to get to lvl30? I've been leeching fov in Teriggan, but it's getting pretty slow.

Level?

Use your ring, go kill 2 mobs and get 300xp each.

In 3 hours you can be 20, then do dom ops in bubu until 25 then solo/party/duo/powerlevel worms in quifm until 30.


Also what is the dual wield cap? I heard 80% but how does one get to that? Does that cap factor in haste samba/haste/haste from gear or just certain ones? (traits and things enhancing traits affect it I know)

I did this on WAR with limited success (using cleave). Get a fanatic's drink, set atmas for aeolian edge and aoe the wave at the martello itself (they'll mostly ignore you up til that point anway). Stand next to the resistance mages, as they tend to open with -aga. I'd move back after the first aoe gets you hate so pulse martello doesn't get hit with mob aoe. You can keep buying fanatic's drinks off the bastion prefect. You'll very likely make back what you spend on the med from 1 dead mob. After dead weaker mobs physical shield will wear off and chariots will kill you, but it's plenty credits and worth the meds if you only need 1k
