Again wasn't making a point about why people would or wouldn't go to 90. Just that most don't. So when arguing over what path is harder/easier when someone asks which one they should do that should be taken into account

And tbh given what I got to work with I could farm/fish 12 mil for Hachiryu Haidate faster than I could just get Kill the 1 KI nm and apa. I mean the people that do sell them usually sell them for at least 500k each. It's not just the price in fact I'd say the price for pops has almost nothing to do with the reason people chose not to upgrade. It's a decent time sink on an nm that you can't just solo half asleep lol

Once upon a time someone posted a link to a Light Luggage profile that had the item IDs mapped out for all the trash drops from regular mobs in abyssea. Anyone have that handy by chance?

I know murexs give enhanced azures and amoebans gives enhanced rubies, what about clinoid and limules?

Planning on trying to Duo Dyna-Glacier as RDM/WHM + DNC/THF. How hard are the Tes to get and is there any good camps that are mostly JA + WS proc mobs?

I solo all TE's in glacier in about 30-45 minutes (depending on how stubborn stats are being on standing away from link) as NIN/DNC. The most popular camps I see for JA/WS proc mobs are Yagudo's (at the Yag extension) as well as at Orcs (assuming Yags are taken), right around Gargantua's tower.

[Deader2818]

Sweet, thank you.

[Veikuri]

Recently leveled Beastmaster from LV11. Can anyone give me a quick run down of what is the essentials needed for BST? Also, excluding trials(I'll work on it eventually) what are some good BST axesx2 to use in the mean time? I currently use Woods/ME. Thanks!

[Churchill]

lol, Apadamak is a much faster fight than Dragua if that's what you're implying. Farming the KI's, yes, Dragua is faster. If you had unlimited amounts of gil/pops though Apadamak would be much faster.

I personally think Glavoid path is harder to lowman due to two claim NM's, what I usually do is cleave a decent portion of the pops for either until we're just wasting time getting stuff we already have, and then go kill the NM's that are left.

Glavoid also takes longer to kill, sometimes much longer depending on his dickishness. I just ended up brewing all of mine to save time. Chloris goes down like a hooker.

I would never compare a LaTheine path to a Tahrongi path though as that's rediculous. If uninterrupted you can finish Both Bria/Cara paths in a day. Two days at the most.

Follow up to LL profile, Currently sitting at 220+ lines. Is there any size limits or at any point would problems with pass/lot arise that any have experienced?

[Draylo]

I bought a good bulk of my Glavoid pops and killed them myself, even got free sets from people who wanted the win. Only paid 300k per set, saved me a shit load of time.

Odin's Geirrothr (10k dmg type move) magical or physical?

[Gokku]

[Tachi]

Odin's Geirrothr (10k dmg type move) magical or physical?

Physical.

[Deadgye]

and what are some ideal Mercy Stroke sets w/ SA and TA?

Going to guess a little bit here:

Heca+1/Gorget/???/???
Heca+1/Raider/Rajas/???
Vigilance+1/Pipilaka/Heca+1/Heca+1

Thanx!!

[Furionstormrage]

What do people merit Group 2 for PLD?

I have Chivalry/Fealty 5/5 on both, some people prefer Guardian over Fealty, and some consider Chivalry a waste of merits but it's useful if you tend to solo often.

Keep in mind I haven't played PLD in a LONG time, so I might be way off on current usefulness.

[Churchill]

I have 5/5 Fealty 3/5 Chiv 1/5 1/5.

5/5 Fealty and you can't go wrong

[Okan]

So what I'm gathering is the best thing to do for both our WAR's Ukon and my Vere is to gold pyxis farm in Tahrongi for all the KIs that we can gather, chain kill, rinse, repeat?
And it seems only the bat wings and scorp claw we'd have to actually go kill and proc for Chloris? And if my understanding is correct, we can get all Glavoid pops from gold pyxis? (We leached so much shit when we started it's not even funny. I'd wager we probably did 50/50 on the bosses and caturae so I didn't really fight Glavoid yet).
