Alrighty, and I thought SCH merits were mostly useless......, wtf do people merit for DRG?

Only thing that stands out is going 5/5 on Angon and Deep Breathing for cat2. No idea for cat1.

Jump/High Jump
Angon 5
Empathy 2-3
DB 2-3

Jump/high jump as mentioned. Deep breathing is pretty much completely worthless, maybe take 1 point in it for that once every couple months when a DB healing breath would save you from dying. You should have a few points in empathy at least, I maxed it.

In case we're confusing you, I don't necessarily disagree with this post.

So, im helping my brother re-activate a account. He only had the first abyssea expansion, and that was it for abyssea.

So I decided to purchase Heroes for him, and a hour later decided to purchase scars.

Now when I log in, heroes is light up on the log in screen.... but scars is not. I have a email saying my purchase of scars was successful, i've logged out multiple times as well.

Am I missing something here?

i had this problem when i activated my friends account, i just logged out / in to fix it.

[jmc]

i've fully logged out a few times now, even switched PC's still no go.

*edit*

now its going, guess it was just lag

[Nattack]

dunno then! wait longer or contact a gm?

Does Store TP cap?

[Clash Perez]

If there is a cap, it has yet to be reached.

[Pendulum]

Trying to work out the best tp atmas inside abyssea based on the atmas/gear currently available to me for monk to hold me over until I get a few things I really should already have.

Right now I have fairly poor atma selection on monk, and I've been using RR/SS/AO for damage until I get around to getting GH and Apoc, but I was wondering if I might actually be better off switching my third atma to Ascending One, which is supposed to be 5% haste and lets me go from 24 haste to 26 while changing my feet from Fuma's to Af3, and I assume capping equipment haste and the extra kick attack damage would probably pull ahead of AO, and get rid of the nasty HP drop from using AO as well.

Any input?

Sanguine Scythe is a real waste. Crit Dmg+ caps at 50%, you get 30% each from RR and SS so are over cap already before you add other bonuses such as Loki's Kaftan and augmented Impetus. I can understand why you chose it to cover the HP hit from A&O but for the vast majority of mobs the loss is pretty negligible.

I'd recommend hanging around Sobek at a relatively busy time and asking the people farming empyreans if you could leech/help trigger the atma (you could offer a small fee if you think they wouldn't trust you).

do the magian weapons that give ws damage +10% work in the off hand like the tp bonus +100 ones do?

[Nemesio]

Best job/WS for brewing Azdaja? And...

Lowman setup for Vrtra?

[Draylo]

Anyway, to drift away from that discussion. I read few posts discussing loss of lights. What can cause someone to lose their lights? I have heard Nucleic Implosion from Ameobean(sp) mobs does it and certain tp moves from NMs?

Anyone know?

[Byrthnoth]

Anyone know?

Pretty much nothing, in my experience.

Anyone know why chatlog would keep erasing itself? It just started last night and is random. If I log, then log back in it's fine for a bit but will eventually happen again. Thoughts?

[Nattack]

wonderful. the seperate ini that is, i found out my computer can handle both windows with no trouble, but theres no point in wasting so much screen space for a tagalong cure mithra.

quoting myself, but a better way to do this is actually just to use a shortcut. I use this to get a windowed diablo 2 game running

simply in target you would put:
"C:\Path_to_windower\Windower\launcher.exe" -c launcher_small.ini

in my case, this is
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Windower\launcher.exe" -c launcher_small.ini

works wonderfully, thanks for the help

it's a bug with the silence plugin for windower. it's annoying but it only happens every so often to me.

No, only jobs that can use the Club of Trials can ever use Black Halo
