Random Question Thread XXI: You're Not My Random Question Thread Dad

[Mojo]

I've got an outside set for Blade: Hi.

Maat's Cap
Iga Ningi +2
Iga Tekko +2
Usukane Hizayoroi (Ideally replaced by augmented Byakko's Haidate)
Lithe Boots
Hope Torque
Warwolf Belt (maybe get this augmented, or replace with that new +6 STR +6 DEX belt)
Atheling Mantle
Centaurus Earring
Brutal Earring
Epona's Ring
Rajas Ring

If you're fighting Voidwatcher stuff you might consider replacing Epona's with a DEX +7 ring (but then again, with augmented Haidate, maybe not)

[Shiyo]

So stack attk/agi? o_O WS gorgets aren't good anymore?

[Mojo]

It all depends on the weaponskill and what each piece of gear can bring.

[Shiyo]

Should rdm evis/sang/vorpal/cdc or nin jin/hi ever use gorgets?

[Mojo]

maybe

[Byrthnoth]

Does anyone have a screenshot of a 3% crit one?

I don't believe it exists. Rumor that got started and hasn't stopped. I've done 2 Tahrongi Empyreans purely off boxes and not seen one over 2. Last time through I didn't even see a 2.

[aiyah4la]

anyone on asura getting super R0's right now?

[urat]

Is anyone else experience ridiculous lag spikes right now? I keep R0ing and DCing, and when I try to log back in it takes forever.

Also the POL website occasionally wont load for me, did something happen over at SE HQ?

[deeeD]

wow, i'm glad this isn't happening to just me. especially since i'm on a super shitty fucking internet connect right now, and for the next week or two as well. ugh what the fuck is going on

edit: can't even log in anymore

welp guess it's time to kick back in front of the tv and down some brewskis

What ISP are you on by chance? Telus?

What ISP are you on by chance? Telus?

honestly i'm not even sure. i'm at my moms right now visiting her for a little bit before i head back to florida and get a new place for myself. but all i can tell you is that whatever it is, it's fucking shitty. but that's no surprise seeing as she lives on a Navajo Indian reservation

[deeeD]

what i find even funnier, is that the only websites i can get to load quickly and smoothly are ffxi related ones, like BG, ffxiah, GE, etc... anything else like facebook and a couple other forums i post on are just completely dead for me. haven't tried the official FFXI site because i barely ever go on it. but i'll take a quick look-see at it.


well i can get it to load, but it's super fucking slow and half the page doesn't even load properly.

This, there are a few things I'd play with, but this would be better than stacking AGI outside.

Stuff I'd toss in to mess with are V.Helm, Bier+1, Ire+1, Byakko's instead of Usukane, Ele Belt/Neck
Byakko's(Augmented)+V.Helm instead of Maat's+Usu
15DEX/12STR/24ATK_________________12STR/12DEX/7AGI/10ATK
This is probably a slight %difference but a 3%crit rate or additional STR on the Byakko's prolly pushes that set ahead

[urat]

FF14 isnt working for me either, wtf? Everything was working fine when abruptly my connection for FFXI went to shit. This is really frustrating too cause it started acting up as I went into abyssea and now am DCed with my stone time ticking away, what a waste of stones, and even worse when I get in I'm going to have to wait half an hour before I can enter again, fuck. There goes tonight's plans I guess

[Mojo]

Well for Hi you would want AGI on Byakko's not STR (fSTR is pretty much capped or ever close to with the gear I listed anyways if you have merits.) Also giving up 20 accuracy is kind of a big hit, not something I'd feel comfortable doing on worthy stuff outside of Abyssea.

[Churchill]

That too, mainly looking at getting the crit%, and anything you aren't capped fSTR on outside you prolly won't be tanking on NIN. Same with accuracy.

[Kohan]

To continue with the R0 vouching, I'm on Asura, in Los Angeles, and my internet is fine, otherwise. FFXI is fucked up, though. R0ing constantly, can't even get my gear. Bullshit too.

EDIT: Time Warner cable internet, for reference.

[Pandum]

r0 every 15 seconds with cox on east coast which i've never had problems with in 7+ years

Same ISP, same city, same server, same problems..

[urat]

Seems to be picking up now, still R0ing bad but not to the point I'm disconnecting. Looks like I'll need to call off killing shit forawhile though because I don't feel like abruptly dying from disconnecting midfight...
