"Free" if you've got enough time to run around farming all the mats yourself. I mostly mean it's not like goldsmithing/smithing where you break the bank just trying to get to veteran. Though it's less true now than it used to be with all the ores and such flooding the AH from VW. http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Bo...uide_by_Mayhem This guide looks pretty decent but feel free to check the other guides as well.

Delay? ( spellcast Precast Midcast )

For Erase
casting time -14%(matk+6) precast and Midcast Lower Recast staff(macc+6)

For Cure
casting time -14%(matk+6) and Midcast Cure Potency

Anyone use this setup? I never saw this idea in any guide i read...

Cures are too fast for it to be worth doing, most of the time. You have to pause enough that it ends up slowing you down.

I have light-mdmg, but mostly gets used for na's and erase and raises.

There are no Ninjutsu casting time- evoliths right? Just macc ones?

With that much earth resist break/slow will barely ever land, if they do it will almost certainly be at reduced duration and the chance of getting unlucky (both chars hit with full duration break) is extremely low.

I never lost a single tunga in 100 scales worth doing it this way. This was at 90 cap and losing sanguine scythe/gnarled horn doesn't really affect your ability to kill itza without changing atmas around.

Thanks, exactly what I was looking for.

Nope. But there are also ninjitsu emnity ones lol.

Meh not useful for what I'm looking for unfortunately. Trying to find a way to make my Ebon Talar worthy of an inventory slot, and since I'm only really going to be able to use it for Ninjutsu and Enhancing Magic on BLU that's pretty difficult to do.

Ok, I'm checking up on casting time stuff, and I can't find a sure answer for this.
The casting time/Fast Cast cap is 80%, but what's the RECAST cap? Is it still 50%?

**Yugl** · 2013-02-15 05:25

I think the cap is 80%, but grimoires bypass that cap.

5:39 AM EST, just got kicked off x3 accounts, can't get back on, SE account page won't come up. Anyone else acting wonky?

Quickfire BST Qs since I dusted mine off after months of neglect.

What's the modern day cheap jug for fodder mobs?
ACP body w/ Pet: DA/CritRate still best body option for pet?
Double zoraal axes, AF2+2, ogre hands....anything I'm missing for a general-purpose Reward set?
General idle gear for pet buffs?

I don't plan to pimp the job out, just wanted to make it a tad more efficient so the pet can survive more comfortably between rewards. Going to start a Pet: PDT axe sometime which should help a lot. Just not really touched the job much since 75-era.
