I-7 of Cirdas (needs rope/boat KI) leads to Yorcia.


Anyone checked to see if Alliance invites are still same-zone only?

Looking to finish Bastok WoG quests. Any advice or way to solo "Fire in the Hole". Jobs would be 99 BST or 99 NIN. Have BLM @ 99 also, but gear is pretty meh.

What's new enmity for flash?

BGwiki show Volatile Enmity: 1280 Cumulative Enmity:180, but aren't those the old value before the buff ? or am I crazy and they never buffed flash enmity!

[Dotsudoku]

Could be totally off-base, but I believe Dasva was working on some of the new enmity values? Maybe PM him(/her?)

Will be really tricky to solo without a way to cure the NPC. BLU could probably do it, but otherwise you really need someone that can heal her.

They didn't buff flash. It was foil/reprisal that got the buff. And I made sure they didn't ninja buff/nerf it or stun either

Him. And yeah I've been posting what I've done so far (which is immediately not much) in the enmity testingi thread but haven't updated wiki

Is there any way to tell if the Frontier Station is built without having to run all the way out to marjani/yorcia?

Okay thx

If you d/c during a Wildskeeper reive, is your exp/bayld progress towards qualifying for an item lost?

Also, I'm assuming that if you d/c right at the end and are gone while it dies, you don't get anything when you log back on. Is that correct?

What's the general priority of usefulness of coalitions?
In what order I should rank up coalitions to benefit my character?
In what order I should rank up coalitions to benefit the server?

[Taim Meich]

1) First question depends on who it's useful for, which you cover in the other 2, so:

2) The benefits granted by a coalition to a character for ranking it up are merely easier/more profittable assignments. Considering that, I'd say: Scouts (ergon locus assignments are easy and profitable) > Pioneers (Can kill two birds with one stone by doing reives and completing the corresponding assignment, plus the later gather ones are easy and profitable) > Couriers (very profitable later on, but very time consuming) > Mummers (decent profit, but annoying) > Peacekeepers (all options are time consuming, some jobs can't solo past the level 1, just okay profit) > Inventors (you'll either consume lots of time or lots of gil for crappy rewards).

3) Server-wise, Couriers is THE option. Having all the Biuvacs up is the single most important luxury to have. The rest don't provide a noticeable benefit once they're at max rank, just enough people doing assignments for them so the rank is maintained will suffice.

[Hirronimus]

Thanks :D

[Khary]

Is it a requirement to rank up in each coalition or can I stick to 2-3 of them and still get the KI's for cheaper?

I was just wondering since there is a map of Yorcia Weald[U] in the dats, but has anyone come across an Augural Conveyor while exploring Yorcia Weald?

[Dominico]

This is probably down to opinion, but whats the best job to play as to get the most bayld in a reive while solo? Whenever I try to DD I wind up getting splatted from links and spend half the time resting. Would a mage job get better results from just standing back and curing random people? Or is DDing still the way to go?

jack of all trades jobs are usually best for bayld:

DNC BLU RDM PUP

SMN is very great with large groups (assuming there arent 10 other SMN with you)

PLD with aegis or ochain is great too

other jobs excell too, just not as good as those, solo. If you have a mule that can cure you its again a different story.

[grevenilvec75]

BST is on that list too.

There was a picture of one on I think the Adoulin site, but I haven't run into it yet. That zone is a pain to explore lol. It's possible it's not going to be in the game till august when skirmish II hits though.
