Random Question Thread XXIII: Neun und Neunzig Luft RQs

[cdgreg]

Actually it does - was there today but wasn't too impressed on what I can do on BLM Thinking of going there as RDM/NIN and doing some enspell craze and then finishing with Thunder. The area is nice in general because Mousse have 5 min respawn.

Nice, glad it worked for you. I did mine a long time ago, so was taking info from ls mates who recently completed staff and complained about bost.

Will any of the new gear coming out next update replace current cookie cutter builds for MNK NIN and DNC?

[Nightmarelord]

Can some one give me numbers / averages for kaiten / amano @ 90?

Does anyone know what is the amount of increased DA damage of Widowmaker?

Will Fazheluo Radiant Mail + NQ Fazheluo helm trigger the 5% DA latent?

It's not very much of a boost, it's ~2% iirc.

As with all dynamis NMs best way is to stagger > kill quickly. With 3 DDs it never got benediction off for us.

Of course if you have less people then you might have issues if it uses it. If lowmanning I'd recommend /NIN for melees and a safe place where healer can stand out of range. It has Doom as a TP move of course like all yag NMs but its most dangerous TP move is Sweep, will likely oneshot anyone in range without shadows if under Mighty Strikes and if not the stun effect lasts a good 10 seconds+.

Thanks for the info... seems zerg is the way to go lol. We tried NIN NIN BLU THF BRD WHM and the fucker benediction every single time his HP got around 20%, every time. Just ended up timing out because we proc'd red towards the start of the fight and couldn't melee it down fast enough. Gonna just zerg it next time.

Somewhat ideal Savage and Vorpal sets for BLU?

Got lost on the last page.

Normally or brewed? Are you saying you are currently using sea daughter and ultimate or that they are ones you have that you could use as your 3rd. If the latter what are your other 2?

[samalis]

Normally, I have sea daughter and ultimate. Not sure about a third or is sea daughter and ultimate only for brewing setup?

Actually neither of those should be used brewing. Lone wolf would be your next best bet.

Are you in the States? They charge a conversion fee or something if you aren't paying in USD.

I'm wondering if there's a script someone can send me or direct me to that would allow me to skillup my blue magic via spamming pollen (or something equally cheap)? Also, ignoring Almace (looking for options until I'm ready to commit to that) what swords should I main/offhand (for blue mage ;x)?

Anybody have that list of datmined items for 95 cap that was on FFXIAH?

[Erkaan]

What's a build for MNK tanking in Abyssea? Ideal set, and a working possible for someone like me coming back and needing to get to 90. Is it just loading up on counter+?

Non-magian try to get a dmg+8-9 Firm in Altepa and offhand isador, Magian try STR Shamshir mainhand, da+10% offhand(I'm not looking at their base dmg atm but MH whichever 1 has highest base dmg). Also the da+10% will be your best offhand for Almace once you get it.

Just your normal TP set, PDT for when countering isn't an option like stun/petrify/etc. MDT set for nukes and some TP moves like Homing Missile. Forgot the name, but there is a cape that increases counter damage, I use that when perfect counter is up, otherwise I stick to atheling mantle.

[Nightfyre]

No. Don't even bother with the Khanda, it's almost always worse than STR Shamshir with Almace and if you don't have Almace you'll be focusing more on spell damage so STR is still ahead despite DA otherwise being a decent mainhand.
