[dasva]

question about RUN wards, they all give buffs depending on which runes you have
but here a example: ward/Pflug: Enhances resistance. The types of resistance enhanced depend upon the runes you harbor.
rune/Ignis (fire) Increases resistance against ice and deals fire damage

if i would use pflug while ignis is active would it reduce the magic dmg for ice dmg or fire dmg?

The wards further enhance the element you get resistances to the effusions are for the element you deal dmg as

Do you need all three nation quests done to keep your Medal of Altana when receiving an evaluation?

[Prothescar]

No, just one branch

[Eanae]

No, just one branch

I have Bastok Branch done and my Medal of Altana was just taken as a San d'Orian.

[Rocl]

The nation's quests you do locks in your rank as that nation. So you'll never lose your medal as a Bastokan if that's complete, but you will as a Royal Knight or Cobra Mercenary. Swapping nations to do Roundel BCNM was awful because I forgot to swap back to almighty San d'Oria and lost a few medals.

I'd just stick to war. Lot's of repops and AOEing and other people in there make utsu kinda meh.

Would Kogarasumaru AM3 spamming apex arrow with the delve bow be any good? No idea how good/bad the WS is, curious if it would be any better than shoha when acc is a concern. (Amano or Yoichi is not an option)

Any way to tell if your progression in a coalition at rank 4 counts? The idea was to hit rank 4 in one, and then toss in 19 points in the offchance that when an update hit that expands the ranks, I only need 1 point to hit rank 5.

Probably going to end up trying it for one coalition as a test if not, and use the rest of my tags getting the other ones to rank 3/4.

TPzerg weapon with new bow(s) spamming Apex should be pretty incredible, aside from the enmity issues you're bound to encounter

Apex has always been fine, just never as good as Last Stand(but new gun is meh, so that's out the window for now)

How do you turn off the geo effects?

[grevenilvec75]

Dont think you can yet. They count as pet effects, which aparrently makes them more difficult to turn off.

Could probably .dat swap them though.

I thought the update notes about turning them off?

Subjob for dnc for reives?

Was thinking /nin for utsu

I use /sch for Reraise and Sublimation (so I never have to worry about resting for MP, in the event that it doesn't get automatically restored by a reive buff). Subjob is almost entirely irrelevant for dnc in reives, so I figured a bit of utility would help.

Oh, it also lets me use Sneak/Invis, so I can spam Chocobo Jig and not worry about timers for Spectral Jig.

[Sechs]

Well it kinda depends on how many people are doing Reives with you though.
If you have just a bunch of people I think /NIN is all but useless.
Altough you might wonder why even bothering doing Reives with so little people, it would probably just end up in an unefficient waste of time and you should rather move to another zone with more people.

I have to say than on my server (Asura), despite it being one of the highest population server, at certain times it's hard to find people doing Reives. You can barely find them in Ceizak, you can imagine that of course Morimar, Yahse and Foret are just empty during those times.

Even the regular mobs have decent evasion, unless Apex Arrow has some very large accuracy bonus assosciated with it I doubt it. The new buyable GKT seems to fall short of Koga in capped acc situations with no cor (not by much) but in regards to delve thats completely unrealistic. The 30k gkt will be the best option, especially once it has been ranked up with acc primary/dex tertiary.

Just curious, how are peoples' LSes faring post bomb drop? Haven't seen like, 1/3-2/3 of my LS even on since update lol. I figured the first day it was the server congestion but it didn't change. I guess we'll see this weekend.

Lot of QQing in my small social LS. Not that I blame em honestly. One guy has just finished his mythic (last night...), several have empys and relics. One guy took one look at the MAB staff and just stopped logging in (he'd just got his empy h2h to 85 and was working on 90). We'll see. Kinda depends on what happens next. But 4 of em have quit/threatened to over the weapons.

It might be but I couldn't see it the other day, prolly missed it.
