Random Question Thread XX: The Aforementioned Goddamn Random Question Thread

There is no such thing like mob likes to make TP move after -ga. Don't feed it TP (turn away) while he cast and it wont make TP move right after.

Idk if he asking to farm dagger or he asking to farm +2 items?

I was fighting every Azdaja at west and at 20+ fights we had aggro from one skele maybe once. I was MNK/blm and I was stunning -ga myself (only after dispel because before it -ga damage isn't a problem). I once died because of encurse + spike but other then that it was easy. I'm a Galka tho and w/o cruor /blm I had 1980 HP or something like that (Because of that I never tried to get cruor back while someone hold Azdaja I simply finished it w/o cruor) My WHM always has Apoc on so in case of wipe he can easy zombie hold it.

If you need yellow I would suggest MNK/nin and use some HP atma if you are not a Galka. WHM outside and BLM outside and do it like Draylo wrote. I wouldn't risk THF tank. It's better to kill 3 with yellow safely then 2 with yellow and TH and risky.
I wouldn't also run for cruor in case of dispel. Just let MNK put RR on and only run back for cruor if he wipe or even HP to jeuno and come back if you don't need to stay in zone because of lights or time.

If you need dagger only I suggest mnk/war + blm/nin and whm outside and after blue stagger just pop some fanatic and 2hr (you wont finish it with that but it will speed up fight a lot). In case of dispel just let BLM stun all -ga and it will be easy.

Terrible advice. There's absolutely no general danger for a THF/NIN BLM/BRD WHM/??? party, outside of cruor dispel, which is not difficult to manage. Including a monk instead of TH for a safety that isn't necessary is silly.

To be fair, he wants the Bard dagger (blue drop). Also, he went with the suggested setup and failed:

I'm not exaggerating. It basically went. I see they pulled it, I run over on brd to elegy and buff them.
spike flail , spike flail. FLAWLESS VICTORY. I didnt get to the end of my second song with troub/nightinggale off when songs tend to land around/under @25%.
Second run went alot better with whm on outside. Sadly they never put the whm back outside after they procced red for atma--> brew/invite and idk how a person brewtello locking ends up running out of time before he can kill more than one mob. Sounds like a job for random fail first thing in the morning.

Does anyone have a working version of LogMod? Lost mine and cant seem to find a valid link anywhere I look.

Azdaja is not that easy to kite as you trying to show. W/o movement speed it can really be painful and can easily make some roar or wings too. I had ppl trying to kite her many times and they were always dieing. Maybe they were lacking skills but I wouldn't assume everyone can kite like you.

[Tsuko_Asura]

Dray frequently kited it as BLM/BRD, lol. Its not hard.

[Atoreis]

It's not hard if you know how and know the tricks/way/paths. If you don't it's painful. If someone is there just to trigger grellow on BLM and have no experience in kiting he will die very fast. I know it's BG and you expect skills from players but even here many ppl use bandwagon jobs that they never played before and maybe I'm pessimist but I think you overrating how easy it is for most ppl.

Also is you friend Dray have Heralds or used movement speed atma? Little things like that can change something from hard to easy sometimes.

[Kegsay]

Best possible Chant du Cygne set for BLU?

Assuming along lines of head=aias bonnet, body=loki, legs=mavi+2, hands=those a.mitts+1 with dex+3 and some attack, feet=lithe?, dex rings, dex earrings, snow/aqua gorget/belt, nifty mantle, thunder satchet.

Expecting someone to have Ambition isn't all that much.

And if we're talking about pickups, well, why are we talking about pickups? You don't low-man Azdaja with pickups. If they're not pickups, play with better people.

Are you really saying that kiting a mob that casts is fucking hard?

[Atoreis]

Idk about "fucking" in this case but yeah it can be hard. Especially when you trying to pass her and move back and stun will wear fast and you will get hit by enpetra/bind/doom etc. or when THF is trying to get hate back and when hate is still on BLM you will feed it TP and she will roar, wing etc.

halp me relearn ninja as I haven't played it in over a year and 3049845 things have changed.

LS mates telling me eva nin is the way to go now. Is that only for abyssea, or basically full time now?
Mostly wondering if I should be focusing solely on an eva set or on both eva and dd set.

Also, is there an eva goal to reach, or just basically attempt to get it in every slot?

[Martel]

From otherwiki:


If this is true, which I highly doubt, but if it is, is it stronger than Wyvern HP+65 from Wyvern Mail's bonus to Healing Breath?

I coulda sworn someone tested this shortly after ACP's release and the test had showed it didn't affect HB...

Ahh, yes, here it is. http://killingifrit.com/forums/topic...0#entry3735300

The screen shot doesn't show anymore, but it's summarized in the text anyway. Looks like I need to go slap some bitches on wiki. This kinda misinformation is not amusing.

As of right now outside abyssea doesn't exist.

I myself have a haste tp set, a eva/haste hybrid, and a pure evasion set (along with other situational sets but I would at least make those 3 and a mdt set).

A pure haste tp set is enough for most of what you'll do, might need more eva in heroes zones.

I don't really shoot for any specific amount of eva. YMMV

What are the best ring and earring combos for a top-geared monk (Vere, 5/5 AF3+2, etc.)?

[Soho]

When a WS is aligned with more than one Sea Gorget (ie Blade: Hi - Shadow Gorget & Soil Gorget), is one ever better to use than the other or will they both have the exact same net effect?

Regain Moonshade/Brutal/Epona/Raja

Really ring/ear slots are shit so not much choice there. If no regain ear, atk works. (Aesir or whatever is the highest these days)

[Ophannus]

Most efficient low man setup for Blobdingnag? Also does keeping it in the puddle always equate to the babies not aggroing? Will they just depop after a min of popping in the puddle? I geuss if they do agro I could diaga them away and run through some puddles with movement speed to get em off me right?

If you're that concerned with your BLM's enmity, have it trigger weakness(in an opposing staff, if it meets your fancy) and nothing else. A good THF can take it down without offensive assistance beyond haste in a relatively short amount of time. Otherwise, PDT set, Ambition, Manawall - you pick. If all of those utilities are insufficient, its not an issue of the setup.
