I would've thought Snow God Core was 100% drop but last night i went 2 kills in a row with no drop which is really weird

I spammed Sisyphus, while burning Spectators with around 48 amber. Averaged a good amount of fragments.

Can you upgrade your Stratum Abyssites without any stones? eg, you beat both T1 VW NMs, but have no stones - will this upgrade to T2?

Yes - just need 1 person to spend a stone to pop it.

Gandiva and Annihilator.

Anyone know if Steam Cleaner can pop from any detector in any basement? All the info I read says it can only be popped from PHs at certain locations, yet our ls ldr claims any detector can pop it, even the ones at zippy, brigandish blade, and curtana pop points.

Steam Cleaner comes from only 4 detectors, the 2 in basement on both sides with Dustbusters.

I stopped playing shortly before the level cap was raised from 75 if I remember correctly, and my token is probably dead even if I could find it.

Would it be possible to call up customer service and have my account opened up or is it too late at this point? I kinda want to see what's been going on here recently.

You should be able to call them up and everything, I might've done it by e-mail I don't remember. All I remember is the button from my token literally fell out and the only way I could get it to work was by sticking my tongue in there

LONG STORY SHORT, DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT ANYMORE. So, yeah you shouldn't have an issue unlinking the Token, as long as you have billing info etc

I bought that stupid gamestop bundle to level a mule, and after borking myself for a few days now due to playonline incompatibility issues between normal steam and gamestop steam (i.e.- impulse or w/e), I'm finally in. However, I can't seem to get my fucking chocobo hat. The instructions I found online guide me to Playonline Optional Services to unlock it, but when I go through the steps I get a message to exit and go through the new Square Enix Account Profile to unlock the reward... but there's no option that I can find in the SE page to do so. Due to my various fuckery regarding this process and the ensuing frustration I've caused myself, this hat has taken on UNREASONABLY LARGE IMPORTANCE and I must wear it immediately. Anybody run across this and have an idea of where I should be going in the SE Account page?

I keep getting 19tp returned from Ukko's Fury, and was wondering if I miscalculated the sTP needed to keep my 5-hit?

TP: http://www.ffxiah.com/item-sets/221371

For Neo-Dynamis do I still need city clears for Northlands access? I'm on a new character that has only cleared Windurst so far.

edit: Well, if the BG Wiki is up to date (and no reason to suggest that it wouldn't be), looks like I do. Fair enough!

Not sure, but Tp in perle and WS in heafoc.

[Nightfyre]

Is the Absorb spell enhancement on Onyx gear the same as on the NQ?

[Zerk]

Anyone know the .dat to switch for the baggy nin pants on mithra? i asked on .dat thread long time ago never got a response, figured more ppl check here

Doesn't high fTP weaponskills benefit less from gorgets than low fTP WS? (1>1.1fTP is a 10% increase, 2>2.1 is a 5% increase). I've seen some people post how 9 vit < gorget on torcleaver. How would anguinus rank as well?

Has anybody with all 3 t4 VW titles not been able to get the cs in Pashhow [S]?

Spammed Sisyphus on what job? I hate fighting that stupid NM.

with a competent whm most dd jobs can handle him. You just have to keep the damage output going steady or he can wear you down. (spammy fuck!)

war/sam and mnk/war really destroy him on war i just fulltime hasso and eat the damage and mnk is mnk. Also I've done him in on drk quiet a few times. again just going all out on his behind.

A note with war (with ukkos). He can easily destroy you fairly quickly, I was dual boxing him on my whm, had to fulltime seigan, done it /blm a couple times, but /rdm helps a ton (/sch I guess but i don't have it leveled on mule). Furthermore, make sure you position yourself correctly with a ukon war. Slow Aura can really fuck up cure timers for the whm. Even so, I did eventually die a few times in a row on him, quite frustrating. Maybe I'm just bad though.

I remember reading somewhere they were changing the prerequisite quest for the Sleepga II quest. Tarot Cards(when you have to collect the 5 different cards).
Something like giving you a new card every so often, instead of just the 1 set and only that.

Am I making this up? I'm starting to knock all the prereqs out of the way atm
