Random Fail XIII: I FOR FUCKING LAST TIME TALLING YOU

[Brill Weave]

Yes, price gouging, because crafters are just sitting on tons of big money synths.

It's also 2005, and my time machine is invisible but I do have a sweet mullet.

When you watch a high consumption item like meds double in price in three days, yes I would call that price gouging. People need to make their money, I get that. It just irritates me when they blatantly say fuck you. Because they know inevitably someone will buy it. When your linkshell sets aside some bank each month to reimburse people for meds there's something wrong. I miss 2005 prices And mullets.

[Funond]

bit late but is the random fail bombing the price or saying it dropped 300%?

[NynJa]

obviously you posting here

[Colenzo]

sometimes you just gotta brew some thangs

From the shell that brought you the DL wipe, here's an Itzapapalotl one... I wasn't actually there so I'm not sure on all the juicy details, but I guess they started wiping, it went yellow long enough for a screenshot to be taken and then to be flashed + invincibled so that it chased around Turquoiise a bit, but went purple before Invinc went off. About that time, I got tells from his main character Waron crying to me about Turquoiise MPKing them or something by standing near them and that he was going to GM jail... I dunno, felt like this was 2008. Anyway here's the end of that conversation from him /telling me on his mule; the last part killed me.

Spoiler: show

"Only 1 person died" except there's 2 in just this SS, the only SS I was given

Edit: For the record, if it wasn't clear, if anyone has a problem with something a member of my shell does, don't just come whine to me about it... Work it out with them like a man. I'd expect shit like that years ago, but not now...

So the fail is the pld in abyssea?

I mean I guess if going PLD to cleave for pops is a crime; though the picture shows he forgot atmas so that's additional fail

[Darkmagi]

PLD is pretty good for itza if you have ochain/almace, cleave pops and use wamouracampa for tp gain to quick kill itza.

[Greatguardian]

More likely it was leeching exp to 99 considering it had, oh I don't know, 0 cruor/atma buffs on. Unless that's "in" now.

Nah it was just a mistake; he was cleaving earlier.

Man I forgot when the plethora of other well setup DD destroyed Itz in half the time.

[Darkmagi]

Not really, it pretty much just drops dead with WS every few seconds. I wouldn't say it's really worth bothering with though, war nin whm is plenty.

[Brill Weave]

Dude look out. Your linkshell is under watch now.

[NynJa]

Because the elemental damage system in this game is nanners?

[Apelila]

Did you have any magic critical hit gear on by any chance? Was it thunder/firesday?

Those are the only 2 things I can think of. Either that 5 got resisted or that 3 got a double crit.

(I don't want to admit that there's no point in using anything other than Ice/Thunder spells outside of situational uses ; ; )

[Celebrindor]

goetia gear on and conserve MP proc?

or you're smart enough to have done the Thunder Magian staff and not the Water one.

[NynJa]

I keep forgetting to buy thunder V for vermy (fuck spending 500k on it...I know its been down to proper price for a while, she's just never on blm), and you cant really use ice on fire elementals.

Ok, the point of the post, that was supposed to be an obvious 1/2 resist of water on a fire elemental...which makes NO FUCKING SENSE

In the other FF games, when a mob was weak to an element it means that it takes extra damage from it. In FFXI it means that you have less of a chance to not do half, a quarter, or an eighth of the normal damage to it. AKA, nanners.

[Apelila]

You where asking if it was possible in the rhetorical sense. My bad, I assume that anyone who's played the game this long knows the answer.

The answer is balance.
