Random Question Thread XXV: Septimus Maximus, Isladar Über Alles

[Noob]

Can someone please tell me how to disable time out? If I'm inactive for longer than a moment, I get timed out of BG and it auto logs me out. I've tried checking for a setting in my settings but found nothing. How do I prevent BG from auto-logging me out after inactivity time?

[fantasticdan]

Can it not? Idk, I play like once a month these days. The rust is caking on.

It can't. I laughed because there was a fiasco on the old wiki back in the day, where a couple of players including a mod claimed para worked on both player and mob WS, and kept editing the wiki to reflect this. When presented with tons of data showing otherwise from a multitude of players, while being unable to provide any of their own to the contrary, they still continued to add it back to the page (with a verification needed tag), until said mod locked the page with the false info still there, which eventually ended with them being demodded iirc.

EDIT: I don't know why I can't link directly to it, but you can see the remnants on the talk page from here; http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Pa...atus_Effect%29

What a great archived read. Should definitely be turned into some type of .jpg for when someone is on BG swearing up and down something works X way, when everyone else and all the data points to Y. (directional crafting anyone?)

Anyone know of a fishing guide? Stopped at 53 3ish years ago and I completely forget rods, bait, and all that shit.

[dasva]

http://www.finalfishing.com/guide.aspx kinda old so doesn't have new fishes or what the new messages mean (though that isn't much extra) still pretty good general info and skillup etc

Yeah, I remember that fiasco. I got it jumbled with spells. Those can definitely be paralyzed.

Which, of course, was only done to save face after otherwiki being called out on their overall lack of accurate information and alla-quality guides.

Any reason at all to keep loki's now that I have Athos's tabard? I don't know it's applications for rng/cor, which I am leveling just for the sake of leveling.

Also can the Byrghid level 50 JSE bodies be requested if I tossed one?

[Dathus]

Loki's maybe for TPing in on COR after the Save TP update? We'll have to see. Keep a hold of it for now.

Need to do some spring cleaning in MH, not like most of it would be hard to get back, but if I can avoid it I'd like to. Thanks.

[Cairthenn]

I was banned a while back and am wanting to come back, so I decided to just go ahead and make a new account.

With making a new account, do I need to make a new SE ID? Seeing as the accounts on my old one were banned? and if so do I have to get a new security token so I can get my satchel?

Edit: Nevermind I just linked my 14 token that I hadnt used.

oh bb~~~~

Anyone have a rough idea of the odds on getting a refresh wivre hairpin out of Konschtat [A] are?

Anyone fought Lugh as of late or any of the fomors in the past areas? Wanna know if these are duo/trio-able now or if they still require a party of 6+ to take down with ease. Thanks

[Tanag]

Whats the best DD and tank food these days? Id like a low cost option for general events and then the best option overall.

MNK NIN and PLD are my jobs for reference.

I tried to 2box Lugh Whm+Thf at 95. His accuracy was insane. Even with full evasion gear (like 650ish evasion?) he hit me a lot. He also has some sort of mad regen or something because by the time I died he was still like 95%. And I was alive long enough to expend my mule's MP completely.

A couple of bst questions:

1. How does jug pet level work with/without relic gloves? Is there always a chance the pet could spawn below 99 without relic +2?

2. Are the any pets worth meriting beast affinity for?

3. Which pets have meaningful amounts of elemental resistance, and to what? Besides dipper vs. wind, and slug vs. water.

I tend to stick to bison steak in dynamis, yellow curries in VW when I am in a pickup and most likely will die, and red curries when I'm confident in my healers/procs.
