Voidwatch Discussion

[cdgreg]

What kind of basic setup are people going with for T1 and T2 mobs? We haven't gotten much into Voidwatch but would like to. Problem is we rarely have more than 4-6 around at a time.

Send me a tell, as long as it's during sometime normal NA time, I can give you a +3 :D (or just a +1)

Yeah, if im not busy i can help!

[Khiinroye]

Strendu mantle from Voidwrought. 2 people also got rings, which were already found.

Confirming atmacite of discipline from it as well.

[Gwynplaine]

So what's this new voidstone thingy all about then?

[Radec]

For T1, usually set up similar to:

PLD BRD WHM NIN RNG|COR BLU/DNC
WAR PUP SMN WHM BLM ???
BLM RDM WHM ??? ??? ???

???'s being w/e we feel lucky on procs for that day, typically try for more mages/ranged stuff if possible.

T3/4 add a WHM, RDM, and WAR>PLD.

DRG/DNC would be a good proc job, 2nd BRD def doesn't hurt for most.

You don't *need* all this for T1/T2 but having a lot of people helps for procs.

[Arthars]

Were the T4 armors dropped specifically from the mob or randomly in the end chest?

in chest and fucking ra ex zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

so its either you, or someone else, he/she cant sell/give

that makes sense why the crafted ones are not as good but AH-able ._.

So what's this new voidstone thingy all about then?

conquest point NPC sells voiddust for 2000p, i still dont know how this goes into use still, gotta check with voidstone officer now

[Tachi]

You can exchange the Voiddust item for 1 Voidstone to a Voidwatch Officer.

[Jeryhn]

You can exchange the Voiddust item for 1 Voidstone to a Voidwatch Officer.

Is this available even if you don't have any stones on reserve?

[Arthars]

i have 0 stones, but 11 in NPC i traded 1 voiddust to npc and he gave me 1 voidstone XD

2000p is very cheap!!! finally i can burn my 1.2m CP

this also means you can choose when to help and not burn ur rocks like before. getting bundle of 3 always is zzz which means u burn ur rock even when helping but now this solves the problem

it is not ra ex too, i can put it in bazzar

[Slycer]

it is not ra ex too, i can put it in bazzar

You can even auction them, lol. Kinda silly... went from one extreme to the other in like a week.

[Spira]

i thought this was really unnecessary since people wont do this everyday (don't have a need to yet, unless they implement future trials to this) and voidstone stock will eventually snowball..

[Rocl]

That seems weird to me considering Hahava's Mail makes Cuauthuli, and it drops the "HQ2" so I was expecting Anhur to be from Celeano (since Celeano's Cloth is used for Hyksos and Voidwrought Plate for Fazheluo Mail). That said, I was searching high and low for info on some of the update items, and on FFXIAH there's a comment saying Genesis Locket comes from Kholomodumo, and considering Genesis Shield's stats, I imagine that'd drop from him too.

[Arthars]

for stones, all i guess is they wanna make people go fight every minute so people dont complain about 3 day twice VW onry bs /unsubscribe...

as for armor, i totally agree the wierd part where the HQ2 drops from box, while craft gets you sub par AH-able version -_-

who wants sub par armor anyway and what does ra ex do to benefit people that cant use them while the person standing next to you will go "FUUUU"

this is a mystery to me really, did someone from abyssea series got fired in SE and new item inventor guy from ff14 comes in?

[Byrthnoth]

Yeah, I was expecting those HQ2s to be reversed too.

Question: Does that sphere effect affect people around you? Ie. If someone is wearing that robe and I stand near him, do I also get the MAB+5?

[Slycer]

Yep, that's exactly what the sphere effect is -- AoE party buff with 10' range.

[Jem]

Possibly stupid question and I assume the answer is yes but you can never be sure with SE. The sphere buff effect applies to the person wearing it too right?

From what I just read on ffxiah, the person wearing the armor does not get the buff...unless I misunderstood or poster is troll.

The Sphere effect is not granted to the wearer, reducing the potential gains for this body on the Damage-Dealer centric jobs.

Dragoon and Beastmaster seem to be the only jobs that would gain use out of the armor, over existing gear.

The question I had, though a possible stretch, so these effects stack? If I'm in the aura of two Auhur Robes, do I have MAB+5 or MAB+10?

I think it's very likely that since Voidwatch is essentially the fourth Abyssea addon the level 95-99 emp trials are going to involve Voidwatch shit. So people better snuggle up and get used to it. Seeing as how the stone evolves and doesn't break I'm also betting each new addition to Voidwatch will continue after the last one so you need to be caught up on tiers.

Just seems like every time there's no level increase they purposely release idiotic sidegrade horseshit like this and the stupid items with latents that make them worthless. (refresh staff that requires engaging mobs hurr).
