That doesn't make a difference since it's distance only

Oh, for some I thought it was angle too (I haven't done them since the first week or so, when they weren't totally understood). Well in that case, none of them should be hard.

It tells you when you accept it and when you are doing it that it's only distance. It's soul pyres that are direction too

To add to the locus discussion, I believe the distance changes every couple seconds in a somewhat continuous manner, however as others have pointed out, the accepted range is rather large (something like .5 yalms). Follow Yugl's method and you'll get it nearly everytime very fast.

Been seeing people using Asuran and Ascetic's Fury with Rigors. Should I be mocking them, or is it something I should be looking at versus Shijin on MNK?

**LidenbokValour** · 2013-05-21 14:25

Apparantly I am dense as fuck and cannot find the option to turn off GEO effects. Am I missing something?

**Jem** · 2013-05-21 14:29

I don't think so. We had that discussion in LS after that update happened and none of us could find it either.

Asuran Fists is very very close to 1/5 Shijin, actually better in certain circumstances.
Haven't tested with Ascetic's Fury.

5/5 Shijin should still be better, especially on tough target, but the difference is not huge enough to be mocking them, imho.

Does Saboteur increase the evasion down from gravity?

Further, Ascetic's Fury can beat Asuran under some circumstances. In situations where even 1/5 Shijin will handily beat Asuran, Ascetic's can often match Shijin. In other words, both weaponskills are situationally equivalent to a low-merit Shijin. There are also some setups that can make them comparable to a high-merit Shijin.

Can't turn off some of them since the thing counts as a pet and SE is incompetent.

**Rocl** · 2013-05-21 18:11

Awkward phrasing. When you say GEO effects do you mean GEO as in the job or as in the Geo-xxx spells? You can't turn off the Geo-xxx spells (for reasons posted above), but you can turn off the Indi-xxx GEO spell animations.

Is there any mob that has some sort of dt/pdt where Tomahawk doesn't work ? Should it work on Foret T5 krab or T1 ?

Can you get WS points in colonization reives?

**Counterfeit** · 2013-05-21 22:36

I'm switching from xbox to pc now. I was able to install the seekers expansion successfully; however, after the character selection screen the game crashes.

Anyone that can at least confirm whether this quest is indeed repeatable and not just an error on the wiki? I've tried talking/trading to him and even waited til after conquest tallies and nothing.

**Byrthnoth** · 2013-05-21 23:49

I repeated it yesterday.

Shouldn't be able to, since they're not exp enemies.

I seem to recall Marinara Pizza had a small cap (around ~30?) while Sushis were around ~60 (squid a bit more because of DEX maybe)

Is Marinara Pizza the only food that gives attack and accuracy at the same time? I mean large amounts of accuracy. Can think about Hedgehog/Porcupine Pie but that's only ~6acc or something like that.
Somepage DB was awesome for looking for the right food according to several criteria

Sorry for the bump.
Anybody got solid info about the caps of accuracy from sushi?
I suppose there has to be one.

How many hoops will I have to jump through to get ffxi to run with a radon hd 6850? A nvidia 650ti boost?
