Oh ok, cool. Well that's neat. Kind of weird though, do we have any theory as to what would cause it?

I guess maybe some dev at SE used some kind of nonlinear equation as a base for the values, and made it bottom out at 75 when that was the cap, but now that cap is higher no one bothered, or cared, about fixing it and now it's curving back up?

**Nightfyre** · 2011-12-06 00:08

It's not "curving" at any point past 80. It's an arbitrarily chosen fixed value for the final 20 levels.

Does the sphere effect on the VW body that gives 2% haste count as gear haste? a little confusingly worded but that's the best I can do right now.

**Kamil** · 2011-12-06 00:56

Could a NIN/DNC solo farm Dyna-Bastok? And get all the TEs as well.

**Xorn** · 2011-12-06 01:30

I'm pretty sure you can but your drops would blow without TH. It's best to team up with a THF/DNC.

Assume I have collected all of the ??? items to weaken mobs during the fight. And when I say solo, I mean solo, not dualboxing with a WHM mule or something. I would think SMN would be my best bet based on what I've read (heard that BST can solo it easy) but I don't think the avatars would live long enough getting beat on by all the fomors at once?

I would think blu would be your best bet for the fomors, these fights have gotten ridiculously easy with 90 cap. I imagine just need to take out the dark fomor at first, some meds, saline coat, a little luck and zerg out the rest.

As far as Shantotto fight, I've solo'd it before on smn, just make sure have all 16 ki for buffs. Make use of whispering wind and garuda should be able to take out one of the shantotto after maybe one resummon, if even that.

Only issue is the ws they use have a fairly large range and will get enfeebled to hell from them. Keep yourself buffed in case you do need to resummon, bring along some echos, and paralyna when required. After one is dead just die near the entrance to lose aggro and rest is easy.

top 3 demand classes for the grind? which is the least expensive? which is prettiest position @ lvl cap?

I doubt you could get all TE tbh theres some really annoying ones

**KCem** · 2011-12-06 02:59

How does Kikoku compare to Kannagi at 95 ? Will Kannagi still win on pure damage alone or have relics been tweaked enough that Kikoku can make a solid argument with its added effects now ? And how's Metsu damage compare to Hi now ? Thanks in advance.

Yes it does. And, as always, the person wearing Toci's doesn't get the haste.

I WANT FRIENDS

There should be a Requests icon (black icon of a person with a ?) in the bottom left hand side of your screen. If you're not seeing it, your browser probably needs an update. There is a whole menu bar down there which doesn't show if your browser is too old. And too old isn't *that* old.

OK, I have an Atheling which I'm already tping in, for some reason never occurred to me to WS in it >.> and can grab belt. Collar I can see is the best for damage but I end up tanking a fair bit and I don't like the extra damage taken, in some cases that could kill me. So if tanking, what would you use for ws? I'm working on +2 legs. I've done the feet and body so far, nearly done with hands.

**Deader2818** · 2011-12-06 06:51

Uh, Pretty sure 5 agi 4 mab > 11 agi.

**Caylene** · 2011-12-06 08:05

I'm a little late to the party, but I can't seem to find a solid answer. Can I earn more than one medal at a time from campaign evaluations if I am far enough along in the quest/mission line to warrant it and have earned enough CP/AN?

I feel like I got two or skipped one when when I was just starting out, but I didn't write it down and I don't remember. The various wiki pages seem to indicate that you can do only one at a time; however none of them seem to include the last round of updates and still have the old xp numbers on them, so I really just don't know.

**Dtroyy** · 2011-12-06 09:08

One at a time still sadly

**Galattea** · 2011-12-06 09:09

The best way to go in a level a combat skill from 0 (Marksmanship) ? Getting COR up now and never used it before, since I got WAR leveled I figured it would be easier to cap skills on that first, and then when COR is high enough just finish capping with it. Tried shooting Fortalices to no end in the past but only got like 6 skill levels after like 6 stacks of ammo. Atm I'm using a 216 delay xbow, any suggestions for anything regarding this are much appreciated !

Thanks.

**Caylene** · 2011-12-06 09:11

@Dtroyy ok thanks! Must have just been a lucky glitch

**GoggleHead** · 2011-12-06 09:16

What's the ideal atma setup for spamming Drakesbane? Right now I've just been going with RR VV and Sanguine Scythe for lack of better options.

**Neisan** · 2011-12-06 10:17

Would benefit more from Apocalypse over VV, can't think of anything else offhand.

**takeDat** · 2011-12-06 10:31

@ marksmanship skillup. Worms worms worms. Just skilled my mule's up with low delay low damage guns and ammo with skill level appropriate worms starting from Korroloka Tunnel. http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Ar...Skill_up_Guide < actually a decent guide from otherWiki.

The only thing that will prove tough is upper levels when worms start using stoneskin. I had my main keep them silenced while I chipped away without a worry in the world.
