Random Question Thread XXIV: #Occupy the RQT

[Dooom]

not sure if Noisome Powder works though

99% sure it does (not totally discounting a late night brain-fart here, but I'm as sure as I can be that I've had it proc).

[dasva]

Powder works. Though the odds of it procing on non main targets now seems kinda crap. Actually hardly even see it proc on the main target either

Can anyone point me in the right direction for an ideal Final Heaven set? Not very positive on it, and I would like to make sure I'm doingitrite.

Thats my Fudo set, Kaiten might favor element belt/gorget with its lower fTP, but it has no attack bonus like Fudo. Can also use Cent earring instead of TPbonus Moonshade for Kaiten.

perfect, thank you! Now I know what I still need to get

So I was looking at the ffxi roadmap again today (http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/at...8&d=1319106837) and ssaw some test server adjustments scheduled for mid November: VW Chapter III continued, synth skill cap adjustments, and new magian trials. Have these been reflected yet on the test server? If so, to what extent?

Just did my limule test on Tachi: Ageha.

DEF: 512
DEF With Dia II on: 460

At the time of the Molting Burst that transferred DEF down to me, I had Dia II on.

DEF after DEF down transferred to me: 322

460 - 322 = 138

460 * .30 = 138

Tachi: Ageha = 30% DEF down for three minutes.

My question: Why don't more SAMs use this?

The WS' description is "Chance of lowering target's defense varies with TP." so it's likely modifying the MAcc of the additional effect. It would be interesting to know what its chances of landing are on anything that matters at 100 TP.

[Haborym]

Thanks.

For someone who has already Yoichi completed - if I were to consider a 2nd relic, I'm torn on how useful some of my other choices for relics. Apoc/Aegis/Amano (is Amano even worth it if you already have a Masa?). I also already have Ochain on PLD as well.

The only usefulness I see to Aegis, is for tanking VW NM's - and even then, most DD's end up pulling hate/tanking for a bit anyways. And that's all I can think of for a usage of shield. The other weapons can used for anything else - including VW and perform very well.

Bump :D

Read up.

One weaponskill every three minutes to provide a 30% DEF down on the enemy, which benefits the entire alliance, from a job that gets TP very rapidly doesn't sound like it's sacrificing much for the reward. As for procs, I went out to Kaggen on SAM/WAR. Did a 100TP Ageha, then died. Dying will erase all debuffs on the VWNM, allowing you to see what's landed. Every time I died, its Defense Down effect wore off.

[Byrthnoth]

Oh wow, haha. Do you happen to know the Defense Down effect on Seedspray and Corrosive Ooze? We're finalizing some template issues (new template), but I put this together:
https://www.bg-wiki.com/bg/Defense_Down

[Prothescar]

Seedspray is 8% and Corrosive Ooze is 5% attack and defense

[dasva]

Hey I thought Tourbillion was 33%

[Draylo]

Wow is it really that large of a def down, more than angon lol.

Does anyone know how much better a perfectly augmented adaman body is over af3+2?

[Prothescar]

Hey I thought Tourbillion was 33%

It is

Wow is it really that large of a def down, more than angon lol.

yes

[dasva]

Is there a cap to total def down... cause were looking at something like -66% def total available which is kinda rediculous

[Darkmagi]

edit: I'm retarded and misread, I'll test this tomorrow if someone else doesn't by then.
edit2: Never mind got mixed up and thought box step was -% def, where are you getting -66% def from? Effects don't stack besides dia3+def down.

There's no cap on Defense Down, but you can only have one of the same status active at the same time.

-33% from Torbillion, -15% from Dia III, -11% from Box Step = -59% total maximum, I think.

Thanks for the list!
