About how high do you need to get Amber to start seeing MDT-6% Rings?

[Pandorablue]

Has anyone done any research on the Additional Effect: Haste from Oynos Knife? Is it gear/magic? How much is it? etc.

It's identical to spell Haste in every way, so it's magic/15%/3 minutes.

You could be. It doesn't strike me as being especially likely though.

You need the attainment folder, with tokens.xml, in your plugins directory as well.

Another Plugin question how do i get the new JA for recast?

[Radec]

Unless you do a resources update(recast needs the manually updated one), you can add them to resources.xml yourself.

POLUtils > String Tables > Common > Spells and Abilities > Ability Info > Shared Timer ID is what recast reads.

Obviously there is no information to figure out which timer is which JA just from that (need to look up the ID in the Spells/Abil table and look back into english > spell names), but you can get the shared timer ID before unknown-abil with recast debug or w/e turned on.

Edit: Then add the line by copy/pasting an existing line and changing the revelant info:

<entry id="36" index="13" prefix="/jobability" english="Focus" german="Fokus" french="Précision"  japanese="集中" type="JobAbility" element="None" targets="Self" skill="Ability" mpcost="0" tpcost="-1" casttime="0" recast="0" />

Only things that matter are ID, Index, and whatever language you play in, can blank the rest.

Edit2: Remember that spells and abils are in different sections of resources.xml.

Hi everyone,

We have started voidwatch recently with a group of 7. We are starting the 3 cities path and I am a bit worried about the Krab tier 2 from sando.

What would be a good setup for killing it (we don't bother about the periapt ou the drops from it) considering the following jobs:
1) WHM BLM RDM BLU (with almace 85) PLD (non Ochain nor Aegis) SAM WAR DNC THF MNK (WoE enpy 90)
2) WHM BLM BLU NIN (Kannagi 85) BRD MNK (not well geared)
3) WHM BLM THF RDM DRk (80 with octave club)
4) MNK (no enpy but well geared) BLM RNG NIN SMN SCH SAM (masamune 85) BLU DNC
5) BLM MNK (poorly geared)
6) WHM BLM NIN (Kannagi 85) SMN SAM RNG THF PLD (non Ochain nor Aegis)
7) MNK BLM THF WAR RDM PLD (non Ochain nor Aegis) DRK SAM SMN

Can we zerg this Krab when under 50% HP when it starts to venom shower ?

Well any advice/setup is welcome.
Thx !

Can 2HR HP/MP & TE statues drop 100 pieces?

No, but non-TE stats can drop single currencies related to their monster type (but can't be procced.)

Would just zerg it from 100% tbh if you want it just out the way. It was mildly annoying at 90 but at 95 it goes down very quickly.

Get SCH to Embrava everyone for max haste and to counteract the poison from venom shower and just zerg it down, with the jobs there it should take 2-3 minutes max.

[psykopat]

So something like BRD, SCH, RDM + 4 DDs should do it just fine from 100% to 0% ?

[Pere]

Hi guys, which would be the ideal TP/ws set for a WAR/SAM using RR?
I aim towards haste cap on tp set and once i got 26% haste i try to reach enough store tp to reach 5-hit ws, is that even possible?
Should i focus more on 5hit build than haste?

[Neisan]

Can cap haste easily on war in this day and age, generally 6 hit is better. Not sure on which weapon is best though for RR anymore, maybe laceratrice(sp?)
