Random Question Thread XXII: You Know the Deal

Blade:to mods on wiki wrong? http://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/24...-brew/#1479125 yeah...

There's gotta be something up with dINT.

[bigrougabagel]

Attempting to obtain the destrier beret through registering the code obtained when i made the abyssea collection purchase. This is only done through the Squenix account management system, but i cannot find where to put the code in. Anyone have any insight on how to do this?

Manigordo Tusks.

Indeed you are correct. 1m gil in gear, 200k in tusks, and 3 hours later, refresh subligar obtained. Now to sell all this gear back....

That's a hybrid ws no? If so couldn't he just have gotten lucky with some DA/TA procs to get that dmg?

Otherwise something is really up. Because if it is magical if the info on wiki is right even if it had an uncapped 2*dStat portion which everything I've tested and heard of being tested has the same cap it still would fall shy of the dmg on there by ALOT. And that's on trash mobs and since pretty much every nm in abyssea takes reduced magic dmg...

If it's a Hybrid WS and he's on NIN, then it couldn't crit so he couldn't possible approach the damage in that SS.

Not sure what him being on nin has to do with anything... but I though hybrids could crit if forced?

And either way the main thing stopping that dmg is the really crappy ftp listed so if he got lucky and added alot of hits to the physical portion. Like should only really need to make it 3 hit on null resist/mdt/mdb.


Idk I guess I could play around with it after dinner

[Darkmagi]

He's not even using perfect atmas for that WS, or dual tp bonus weapons. Seems like it has huge potential for brew. Not to mention that any job can have access to it with /nin and katana skill 100+ (trainee burin)

Prob meant if he was on NIN, he wouldnt be able to force a crit, unless he was /thf i guess.

[dasva]

So just played around with it... definitely hybrid. So I'm guessing that guy just got real lucky with TA procs maybe even force critted. Or I guess maybe just sata bonus from thf main lol. Gunna try it none brewed on thf for fun

[dasva]

Behold the power of SA bonus on hybrid ws. Note was using trainee burin (lol 1 dmg weapon)/warp cudgel and then fishing gear. 300% tp with SA assassin's charge using ultimate, beyond and razed ruin. Oh and stalwarts because the kat skill of a mostly naked thf/nin sucks balls

Now brew it to compare!

[dasva]

Hmmmm maybe tomorrow. Let's see I have a Bukhis pop... does it actually resist ice?

Edit and quick question before I go to bed. Can set bonuses proc on ws? Like say if you triple attack on ws can thf set proc?

[Darkmagi]

I don't think they can, I'm going to test azdaja thf/nin brew with this tomorrow to see how it does. Would you think beyond RR and undying would be best? or SS instead of undying?

[dasva]

undying would probably beat SS/RR since you can only crit the first hit. Maybe even if you only get 1 crit.

Wonder how taki:kagero would do... slightly better atma selection lower stat mods. Rlb is a hybrid right?

[Darkmagi]

RLB was really weak when i tried to brew without fire atmas, dunno if they would make it that much better.

[Deader2818]

For Wildfire underbrew, I assume its better to use MAB inplace of AGI but for Neck/Waist, would it be better to use mab in those slots or the proper element gorget/belt?

yes agi is completley useless brewed. And gorget/belt would be better however in this case the difference isn't huge since neither add all that much

[noodles355]

Not at all. What I'm trying to say is that they don't proc on WS at all, and the reason people miss the proc is a lot the time with haste/marches etc you are getting melee attack rounds in during your gear swap to and from WS gear or to and from MDT gear, evasion gear, shadow casting gear, w/e gear swaps you may have. Since those melee rounds are occuring during the swaps, the TH procs are prevented from hitting the chat log.

Not convinced. I use Blink Me Not on my mule so I would see it on him (and hear it) if that was the case.

I have never not been able to keep track of my TH procs (meaning I am always aware at what level it is and would notice if it proc'd on a ws with nothing in chat log) and I have never seen one proc on ws.

Would not the best plan be to have a SCH give you Firestorm and using a fire obi?
