Random Question Thread XXIV: #Occupy the RQT

[Upbeat]

Will Kurayami stack with Lowers accuracy +15 from the Magian trial weapon?

[Nightfyre]

Given the prices -1s are going for they pretty much have to be T1.

On a similar note, is Cursed Breastplate T1 with Smithy's Torque or are subcrafts too high? Anecdotal evidence welcome, wikis don't have any info on subcraft levels.

Uptempo: They stack, Blind and Acc Down are two different status effects. The katana effect would not stack with say, Kamu however.

Are satellite mobs located right next to the spot for the corresponding Animated weapon?

More or less...theyre not all encircling the ???, but theyre all close by.

Should do. Blind and Accuracy Down are seperate status effects.

[Foldypaws]

That said, why make a katana to lower their accuracy by 15, when you could make a katana to raise your evasion by 20. Do you co-eva tank a lot of things on NIN?

I've been on Stun duty lately for VW. I haven't been able to figure out filter settings to only show what the mob does for TP shit as well as spells cast. I can get it down to only mob TP moves shown in chat, but the spellcasting is eliminated also.

Is there some way to filter shit and only see mob TP moves and spells cast on anyone in the ally?

Was wondering this aswell. Some of our DDs weren't seeing Deathly Glare from Akvan in the chat log and nobody seems to have a definitive answer on which filter you need off to see it readying this.

Chiner's Belt or Cuchulain's Belt better for Rudra's Storm?
Why?

Cuchulain's, unless with Assassin's charge/Ternary Flourish. Even on THF, TA doesn't happen often enough for Enhances TA damage to beat 10 attack even with an extra dex.

I'm a returning player after about 10 months off. Few gear questions

1) Is Ridill still worthwhile for THF? or are two daggers better? (I don't really have time to sink into emp/OAT weapons atm)
2) Best non Emp/trials Mnk Hands. I have a savate fists with +4Dmg/+2Crit mod on them
3) Rebuilding my cure sets, are +cure pot > MND setups now?

Thanks for the help all you mathy math ppl.

Probably should go in RQT.

1. I personally don't remember Ridill ever being good for Thf except for fodder mobs... it certainly isn't now.
2. Probably Str Taipans, but if you absolutely cannot kill the NMs for Vereth at least make Rev Fists+2.
3. Way more cure potency gear now.

I can't think of an actual appropriate thread to pose this question, well here or What's Better? but I got a Houyi's Gorget last night and I saw some debate in the Post your gear thread regarding its uses for DRG etc, but Rancor Collar exists and what not and that seems like a usually better option, no? I mean, I don't know obviously, but what I'm asking is there any point for me to keep this piece of gear because I will be angry if I drop it and it becomes useful like my fucking Pitchfork

[Darkmagi]

I wouldn't toss it, it's a high STP piece for neck slot and thus could be useful in some x-hit builds.

[Koyangi]

Can 2 MNK's Non-empy with 2 BRD's for SV Double Min + Double March with 2hr's each kill Kirin easily? No option for a SMN with Alexander, will have a RDM with lolDia3 available and a THF for lolFeint. Should the MNK just sub war? There'll be a WHM as well, I plan on using that new Magic Def Bonus Aoe at around 70% so coupled with capped Shellra 5 I hope the 2hr won't hurt much.

It's a handy stp slot filler for Ranged Attack jobs, I use it on Cor in VW for example. As mentioned before, it could be useful for stp builds across a number of jobs depending on what new gear comes along. Definitely worth dumping on a mule instead of tossing it.

[lolwut]

Best places to level marksmanship as a cor? Using Awilda's gun currently level 113 skill.. Thinking maybe Terrigan until like 150~ then maybe worms somewhere in abyssea?

Terrigan then La Thiene then Ulegrand would work. I'd personally just go to events on it and pop of QDs whenever the timer's ready. Skillups are pretty generous on QDs, that was the majority of my 85-95 skill increases.

[Rehwyn]

Was it ever confirmed/refuted that monks got Kick Attack III sometime 91+? I remember there was discussion about it a bit ago and the DPS spreadsheets seem to include it still, but I also seem to remember the only testing done had a very small sample size with a very large confidence interval.

[Diddy Kong]

Gonna assume for PvP use based on the person that asked.

[NynJa]

Cuchulain's, unless with Assassin's charge/Ternary Flourish. Even on THF, TA doesn't happen often enough for Enhances TA damage to beat 10 attack even with an extra dex.

If you're in abyssea, I'd use it over Cuchu's, presuming you're using AoA.

[Nightfyre]

Do we even know how much damage Chiner's adds?
