I'm not sure really. I heard about the trick after I had gotten my kote and I didnt dare toss em to test it lol.

edit: Nynja beat me.

I'm not sure how it would work with Kote's...unless they took off the rare tag from the knuckles.

Has the formula for macc on BRD skills ever been properly quantified?

No, but they're really freaking accurate at the moment so I'd be inclined to go with a simple Singing+Instrument+CHR_factor

[grevenilvec75]

Multiple times, but its always main character without, alt with.

Do you have multiple version installed? like regular version and test server version? or steam version?


Also, are they both using the same launcher (like both using windower or both using normal POL?)

I've been farming goublefaupe for 3 days now for the sword attestation. I had the idea to hold the other 3 tests so I was guaranteed to get the sword on the next kill. It didn't happen. Are the test NM's not guaranteed to drop anything? I don't remember them NOT dropping a test ever before this.

I'm 100% certain i don't have the sword attest already in my mog.

This is anecdotal, but when I was farming that NM to get the Ragnarok attestation for a friend, he had the idea that killing the NMs during X 2hr increased the chance of getting the respective attestation. We would kill it while it had chain spell up and would keep getting Sword, so we tried during invincible and it finally dropped Great sword. The NMs will cycle through their 2hrs if you keep them alive long enough. Anyway, it's probably up there with directional crafting and moon phase and whatever but it's worth a shot if you're having a hard time getting the attestation.

Nope just 1 version, and they both use the same launcher from windower 4, same plugins, everything.

What would be a good way to test this? I just have a hard time seeing BRD(with merits)having almost 800 base macc. I know when i dualboxed a gimp brd in VW I would still resist a decent amount without ascetics.

If we currently have signboard, will we lose it Sunday? Or is there some other form of "decay" on the edification of the coalitions?

What testing the macc formula? Because macc testing is seriously unfun

Does the White Mage Job Trait: Divine Benison work Erase? Erase has always been a weird status removal spell as it is classified as Enhancing Magic and is the only single status removal that doesnt work with Divine Caress, so I'm wondering if Erase is the odd one out for Divine Benison as well.

[Byrthnoth]

I think that it does work with Divine Benison, because I'm fairly sure that's how I did my testing.

[RicFlair]

Oh thanks for the info and testing ^^, BGWiki usually doesn't have people posting in discussion tabs so i've tended to ignore it :\

You're supposed to be staying at rune as BRD/RDM. Unless you're at song casttime cap (which is highly unlikely) I suggest /RDM because:
1) it will still allow you to cast haste on 1-2 DDs, making SCH's work easier
2) It will give you fast cast for even faster songs for the 3 times you're gonna sing them without Nigh/Troub on each run.

Sweet was hoping it was /rdm.


Wouldn't happen to be able to give me a rundown/guide for me would you? you seem to know the most about brd in NNI. having never done it, would you go in do x JA, marches, etc. etc.
