Random Question Thread XXVI: The Rise and Fall of the RQT

[Kincard]

Hm, how hard was he hitting your PLD? Think THF+Heals can do it? TH would be nice.

[Eurell]

I honestly don't remember, this was a month or so back when i was soloing T3 blobs. The only dangerous part i remember was when it would lower my max hp, which is what eventually killed me when he meteor'd (i think) right after. But I was doing fine for about 15 minutes before that.

Here is a very random question to which I am not sure that anyone has an answer. Does anyone know in what DATs the Moblin Maze Monger runes and the Storage Slips live, and if they can be viewed with PoLUtils?

ROM/217/21.dat (20 JP, 25 DE, 26 FR)

The polutils version that was modified after may15th broke spells/abilities can read it (Item Data > English > Vouchers and Slips) but the googlecode project hasn't been updated with it. Pebble's computer isn't set up to compile it anymore, and I haven't set it up to compile as installer to have it uploaded there.

Is Rancor Collar best tp neck for NIN?

I think it was nefarious collar+ rancourus mantle combo last i checked. It probably varies depending on the mob/zone.

[Nightfyre]

Rancorous Mantle paired with Hope Torque seems to be more popular these days. Atheling + Rancor Collar is probably easier to get, though.

How many people are needed for Yilbegan?

He said TP set, not Hi set. Dropping 3 DA for 3-4 attack during TP is absurd. Yes, Rancor + Atheling is best for NIN TP.

Yilbegan is soloable if you're really bored, DD + healer will tear him apart.

atheling+Rancor is better, you may be thinking of blade:hi.

Can anyone post current DRG tp / ws sets? I think I have an idea but the closest I ever came to playing DRG was Caiti's level 75 one. Been a while since then. Thinking of doing Gugnir and want to do it right.

THF+WHM can 2box it easily.

Is it possible to clear dyna-beau with whm/rdm, nin/thf, blu/dnc? Can possibly add a thf/dnc in there also depending if friend avaialbe. If not possible what is the minimal amount I need. Are the dragons sleepable? do they still come back to the eye when an action is taken on it?

I've only killed the NQ boss once and he went down in less then 20 seconds with a full pty. Just set up and zerg him, with 3 you will want sleep pots.

You are my hero. I may have to find a bard to write songs about you.

(BTW, about that link, he can use the file check version to update FFXI if he has it installed.)

For damage, the best WS set for Stardiver is:

Lance/X(Depends on your sTP needs; probably Rose though)/Blank/Thew Bomblet
Mekira-Oto+1/WS Gorget/Brutal/Moonshade with TP Bonus
Phocys Body/Lancer+2/Pyrosoul/Rajas(Again, depends on sTP needs)
Atheling/WS Belt/Lancer+2 Legs/Hecatomb+1 (With STR/Polearm/ATT augments)

TP set up will depends on your lance (Charis/Gungnir/Herja being the big three), 5/6 hit needs (Haven't had time to compare them), and how many WS hits you want to rely upon (I usually like to do 2/4 hits, but some prefer to use 3/4 hits).

[Killvearn]

1) It's true that taru taru sash with th+1 raise treasure hunter of bounty shot too? (like 4 with af3 gloves too?)
2) Does haste on pet has a cap? For automaton, it stack with haste from turbo charger? Does they have separate caps?

Thank you.

In Neo Dynamis, JA stagger or TH from /sub which is better? I can go Kannagi NIN/THF or NIN/DNC with my pocket WHM.

NIN/DNC + WHM/THF

TH and JA stagger both needed to get a decent haul.

JA stagger.


Edit: What Radec said. If your pocket whm has thf sub, that works.

Does Tractor work in Dynamis without kicking the person out? What about in VW without losing VW status? In Abyssea? Is there anywhere with a special status required to be inside that still works with Tractor?

[Skeelo]

I have been dc'n non stop since the update. Its not a normal dc though. I get the red dot, but my S/R stays normal and i can still see chat. After about 3min of red dot it goes to black screen and says "Time out reported by playonline server" This has been happening about every 15min. Any idea what it could be? Internet still works fine during dc and netflix never stops running on other pc. Very frustrating.

Dynamis works, Void not sure, abyssea definitely doesn't.
