Random Question Thread XXII: You Know the Deal

[Radec]

Plus limits tp moves coming your way. And the hp drain is usually enough to keep up with minor hp losses like dots or rare hits

Do you have a link to something showing it actually removes tp/hp/mp from the mob? I had thought it was like samba and just created extra hp/mp/tp for you.

Edit: If it hasn't been done, the best way, I'd think - something that can charm + use twi knife, hit a mob 1x, get a tp drain on that hit, charm, check tp. If you keep solid track of how much tp it should have, can just charm after the first tp drain and check then, but proc on first hit seems best.

Not sure if there has been testing. Though I have noticed that when tp drain procs right after it uses a move I steal 0 lol

I'm trying to do the Odin 'Release thy knight' questline, but I have completely lost track of what number I'm on. While I could just keep going till it's done, I'd like some idea as to where I am. Does anyone have the data mined text from the quest?

Anybody know the value of the Zanshin enhancement on Hachiryu Haramaki?

[Darkmagi]

As expected, sanguine blade is terrible on azdaja. Asking again for best non wildfire/cloudsplitter brew ws on him.

[dasva]

Assuming it doesn't resist light too trueflight should do the next most dmg I think. Could always try charged whiskers and freeze timers between recast

Very cool, thanks

If Plucking Wings is in your log and then the requirements are lost to open the BC, i.e.: the required zones arent under windy control after a subsequent tally, can you still do the BC?

Strategy for getting colorless souls? I'm debating just doing /shouts for T3 abyssites @ 200k each or something; is there any other way to make this trial not terrible?

Well I'm sure Bahamut is different because it's a craphole but, I just did plates/souls in about 7 days just camping when I got up (after JPs go to bed/before NA's get off work) with me+2 mules.

For Azdaja, I would think AE works fine since it's not ice based like Isgebind. It's what I plan to use anyway.

what are some places where there are 2+ group of mobs that easy cleaved
planning on pulling group of 2 different mobs at once and almost one shotting them, sleep
then alternate finishing mob types to build crour

[dasva]

In mis there are 2 different crabs right next to each other. Pretty sure they count as different. Frogs nearby on set too

Can all 3 of the T3 VNMs in heroes zone be trioed and if so, what would be the best set up for each?

[Churchill]

I basically duo Diabolos/Leviathan MNK+WHM, and have a THF for TH. Ifrit I bring 2 WHM's and avoid firesday. He's not awesome.

[Deader2818]

Figured so, dont I have to leave the WHM out of party for Diabolos or just stay out of range?

Misareaux is really nice. Between conflux 04 and 00 are birds, colibri and bats. Spiders, too, if you don't mind slightly longer pulls.

I've read that you need to, but then again I always have the THF mule there to have hate as well. To be honest, I don't think his hate reset is 100% nor is he really all that dangerous. He is the easiest of the 3, minus the draw-in gimmickyness that he does.

Levi can be very dangerous, but even on watersday he can be managed. And he actually drops 2 souls sometimes.

[grevenilvec75]

Yeah, but people have always been pretty sure that's wrong (or at least misleading).

Do any of these people have evidence for their claim?

[Cairthenn]

Do any of these people have evidence for their claim?

I do. Capped ebon, a single amber light (well, 8 ) and consistent level 1 amber chests. Didn't reach max level chests at all until the expected 15x amber kill later.
