It depends on which Diabolos you roll. When we did it we had 8-9 people and this was ages back. It's probably doable with 6 depending on which one pops.

Ya, just between the ZoneArea and Area page, which would you prefer for that page.

If nothing else, and an agreement can't be made, would it be possible to just add a setting that can be turned on/off?

I've yet to see an option, but I can ask Ragns.

Barrage capped at 10 last I heard.

8+AF1+1 hands + ASA legs (gun may take it to 11, never heard of it being tested)

Are any of the Apocalypse Nigh earrings still worthwhile?

Ethereal Earring is great for PDT/Idle since it has HP/Evasion and Damage Converted into MP. Great for PLDs, BLUs for PDT/Kiting/Idle or for DRG/Mage solo. I like to use it in my pdt/idle set on BLU when I'm blueburning in Abyssea so I can recover a nice chunk of MP while 20+ mobs are hitting me and for DRG/Mage when I'm killing too fast to throw on twilight body or ogier's for refresh and need a few points of MP for healing breaths. Magnetic could be good for PLD for cure iv and for other jobs that rely on shadows.

Does anybody know if any of the AU VW T1s aside from Vanasarvik spawning adds have some weird behavior when you trig them? Tonight I was fighting Yalungur and I could've sworn he became a lot more evasive after trigging him, only removed every time he was trigged again. It might've just been my imagination though (Stalwarts wearing? Probably that too).

Thanks, I'll be picking one up.

My LS does multiple pops with a full alliance (plus a SCH locked embrava) and I think we've only come close to wiping once. done at least a dozen pops i bet.

Is there proof of 10 hit barrages? Is it not subject to the 8 hits per round rule?
I'm also presuming Barrage is 8 hits at 99? Bgwiki just says "Barrage can fire up to 4 shots at level 30, 5 shots at level 50, 6 shots at level 75, 7 shots at level 90. (As of the May 10, 2011 Version Update.) "

There is proof, its buried in one of these threads.

Barrage plays by different rules then WSs, attack rounds.

**Dotsudoku** · 2012-10-18 12:25

Seconding remembering it being verified up at 10 shots. Heard nothing of the gun's interaction, but having it cap at 10 seems rather arbitrary.

Oh, I guess it should be mentioned if nobody did yet- Static Earring is the only MDB ear option in the game as far as I know aside from Mujin Stud, so it could find its place in an magic defense set if you don't need MDT from Merman's.

Aye, I said that. PLD also can't wear Mujin which is annoying as hell.

After receiving the lm-31 I'm attempting a character recovery. While my infraction is what it is, I noticed something very strange. The day I was banned I had logged off to do windows updates. The next morning after booting my pc is when I received the info. I only use the email linked to my ffxi stuff for just that, ffxi stuff only. I pay each month by letting my accounts get cancelled and then paying with CC. I noticed the email below and immediately wtf'd. Anyone seen anything like this before? What are my chances of getting recovered? :D

Spoiler: show

So I recently picked the game back up after a hiatus, stopped with my Clothcraft at 90-ish. Anyways looking to finish it out and was hoping to save some cash by farming the Arachne webs. So here is my issue, I have been down to Kuftal 7 or 8 times now, everytime staying between 3 and 8 hours and I haven't seen this bastard once. Now if my luck is truly that bad fine, but I'm beginning to think I'm not killing the right Recluse Spiders.

Can anyone say which spiders are place holders? The spiders I am killing are on the 2nd map (as if you're heading for Yowie), I go past an opening with several spiders and a raptor and into a tunnel with a single spider and raptor that opens into another larger area with 2-3 spiders and a raptor. These are the ones I am killing (including the one in the second tunnel) and as I said haven't seen the bastard once.

Appreciate any insight.

Have you tried using apradar to see the dead body? Atleast if you can see the dead body you will know you are in the right area. I'm not sure if the dead body shows up if it was not popped/killed since the last server reboot.

Oh, I haven't. I just picked the game up again a week and a half ago, still working on getting windower back up and running as I had it (or as close to it) 2 years ago, as well as trying to adjust to the all the changes (it's a whole new game @.@ ). Will give that a try this evening though, thanks for the tip.

Would still love to hear any other insight!

Just came back to the game after a long time. Can I two box my g horn trials? I would have to use bard (obviously) and either a really really gimpy 99 Sam or really gimpy 99 rdm. Trials are goblin golem in jueno, windy boss (that pops with two pld adds), and the bard attestation and animated horn mobs. Also will the pop items for jueno and windy boss drop w/o time extensions or procs?

It's the spiders in front the mouth of the cave that leads down to the fishing hole. Just outside that cave area there.

golem maybe if you chainspell nuke with the RDM before it kills you, the windy boss no way. Your sam could handle the boss itself but the adds are going to give you trouble. If you had a friend with a pet job like smn or bst to hold the adds you'd probably be ok. I think the pop item can drop without TE and procs, but it's very, very low chance. You're going to have to learn to get TE's unfortunately.

Can you specify GC to use Safe/Storage/Locker/Main inventory only? Does GC work with includes?

**grevenilvec75** · 2012-10-18 20:10

windower -> plugins -> settings ->Gearcollector.xml

Code:

		<useLocker>true</useLocker>
		<useSatchel>false</useSatchel>
		<useSack>false</useSack>
		<useStorage>false</useStorage>

adjust yours accordingly
