Random Question Thread XXIII: Neun und Neunzig Luft RQs

[Glacont]

Thank You Churchill. I Appreciate the effort You've put into Your post,

[Leva]

What kind of damage would a RNG expect to get from Wildfire outside Abyssea with normal kinda gear (Vulcans/Aqualine/Hecates/Moldavite) and what kind of damage would COR get with Fire Shot>Wildfire on the same mob?

[Churchill]

1) How Does a Rancor Collar stand up to a Breeze Gorget on Ukko's Fury?

2) Can You provide numbers as to how close or far apart the ratio is between the two?

3) How many points of DEX = One Percentage of Critical Hit Rate?

Forgot with blood rage up, gorget should also outperform. Same principal as MS

[arshesney]

Didn't try rng outside yet, but on COR I get 1050ish on t4 harpy vwnm (/rdm, no wizard roll) and about 800 on dyna xarca demons (the ep ones).

[dasva]

Ok. No.

2 AGI > 1 MAB

Not necessarily true.


The value of agi vs mab vary greaterly depending on how much agi you have int the mob has and your mab. Also if you really beleive that 2 agi> 1 MAB why are you not using a 50 agi atma and instead using a 50 mab atma?

[Deader2818]

I'm not concerned with the expense, I thought Merc. Kris was actually faster for tp then /ra. No Orberon bullets for sale, been checking on and off for a week.

Don't have smoldering sky yet, on the to-do list. Replacement atma? Have Ultimate and Lone Wolf.

If you need one hit me up in game.

[Cairthenn]

Wat? Last I checked 50 != 2*50.

But you're right on the other accounts.

[Glacont]

DEX being a strong factor for outside Ukko's Fury, should I upgrade from Cuchulain's belt to Pipilaka Belt? I am wondering if it is worth it.

[Neisan]

DEX isn't a WS mod, it only affects dDEX, and if you're not capping dDEX (or even know if you're close) don't bother imo.

[Churchill]

Depends what you're fighting, I find an Abyssea set parses better in say, Einherjar..whereas in VW there are so many factors it's hard to tell, but I think it's safe to say i'm not capping ddex

[Diddy Kong]

Atmas and spells for Charged Whisker?

so just removing my Security token from my SE account is fucking turning into a nightmare. (lost it on a plane ride at some point, so just removing it)
I have litterly filled out the account info thing a bajillion times, and of the 4 security questions (mom's maiden name, elementry school name, 1st pet's name, favorite teacher's name) I have answered all 4 litterly 8 times each. Apparently the answer is case sensitive, and i honestly don't know which question i answered back a year ago.

My question here is how long does the notary form take? do they send me one i have to fill out or what?

[barber2006]

There has been a lot of talk about how moving forward Amano should begin to outshine masa as upgrades continue and the game moves completely outside abyssea. Is this true for other relic vs emps? Most notably Yoichi and Gandiva? Or is the aftermath and jishnus just too much to overcome?

When I took mine off my account I just logged into the online help, created a ticket number, then called support. The guy didn't ask for any of that stuff, just asked me the basic questions to confirm ownership of the account (email address, last 4 of credit card, address, etc). He said I gave him enough to verify the account and unlinked it on the spot. Don't know if things have changed but this was only 6 months ago.

The notary form I had to do like 3 years ago but that was for a hacked account. To unlink it was basically as easy as calling support after creating a ticket.

[Neisan]

Atmas and spells for Charged Whisker?

Lion/Blinding Horn/Ultimate or Hell's Guardian iirc.

Spells: I recommend setting CW/Pulse/Whirl/Actinic/Momento/Embrace if moon phase is favorable, Sound Blast/Enervation/Warm-Up if necessary at minimum.

[Yugl]

Why warm-up?

I don't remember having any trouble when I lost my token a couple years ago. I provided basic information, and the person said they would disable it without unlinking it, for when I found it (it took over a year to find, but I didn't re-enable it)

[dasva]

Really depends on your gearing and if you have the right atmas. Personally the only things I set to actually cast are CW, whirl, quad actinic, dream flower and memento mori cocoon and um the blink one. If not one shotting then enervation too. After that fill in with dex. Embrace if I don't have my alt there to cure me.

I often don't cast mori anymore and only whirl if more than 1 resisted quad to help finish up.

Usually depending on what I'm gathering and where I am can pull a group and still be in white when I go to sleep and just one shot them with BA CW. Actinic is more for when I forget to put aquaviel back up to help dream flower get off lol. Plus it's half of auto refresh the other half being a dex spell so yays

[shen]

Say I'm figuring out my critical hit rate on Jishnu's Radiance or a similar critical WS.

At 100% TP, the crit rate anchors at 15%. Now, when I'm calculating my critical hit rate... does the 15% replace my 5% base critical hit rate? For example, if the only thing affecting my critical hit rate is my base rate... when I use Jisnhnu's is it 5% base + 15% Jishnu = 20% ... or just 15%?

Hope that made sense >.>

[dasva]

Pretty sure when they list crit rates of a ws it's how much that ws adds at that tp
