Edit: Not worth it.

Cair is right. Just brew 6 @ a time using sanguine and suckless; that's how you should do it.

Proof that you're retarded, though.

Proof that you openly fleehack around if you disagree with my timing.


Either way, its already been ascertained that you're a glorified troll with your lil bro Fake.

Click the quests to see the NMs.

Okay thanks, that helps me a lot.

Blade: Shun worth getting? And for attributes for nin should I do STR/DEX?

Not really. If you just use Ninja to do random stuff in abyssea, Jin is perfectly fine. If you want to do stuff beyond that, I'd suggest making a Kannagi. Spending the 5 merit points into a more quality weapon skill would be a good plan.

12 STR+DEX is ideal for attribute merits.

Wasn't sure whether to ask in the gimp thread or not, but wtf is with the amount of BLMs lately using that Maleficus scythe? Every time I've done VW this past week, there's at least one BLM using it. I was under the impression it was garbage up against the HQ ele staves (NQ also?), which every BLM should at least have in modern XI (or Chatoyant if they're sane) if they can't be arsed to do magian staves.

It is garbage compared to ele staves on things they work on but pretty good for meteor

It's a bit better than Jin, but if you have the means to get a kannagi and want to be serious about NIN (which, if you're thinking of using the extremely limited WS merit space on Shun, you better be), then get a Kannagi.

Thanks, yeah building Kannagi now, 24/50 skins.

Itt: Outranging 30' before a cast/fulm goes off w/o movement speed is impossible. Jesus, how could you suck anymore lol.

Jesus christ shut up, everyone

The question has been answered. Most anyone with a decent stun set can handle Apa, and while having someone to stun things certainly makes things simpler and less prone to incidents, it isn't completely necessary

Is it possible to try and red proc X NM in Abyssea, have a partner (BST) hold it, I run out, change to BST, to speed up kill, and still get atma?

Reason is I got PLD levelled and as you all know it sucks

[NynJa]

I dunno if anyones really tried that to be honest. Id wager no, but you could always try on a shitty NM and find out?

I would imagine it is exactly the same as inviting someone to pt after it is proc'd for kill, and them getting atma - hasn't that happened?

[Yugl]

You'll get the atma.

[The Stig]

Buffy: good point! Didn't think of it that way.

Thanks!

I'm getting strange DCs where I'll get the red dot by my character's name and NPCs/PCs will stop moving, but the chat log keeps scrolling with new stuff until the game boots me. Is it just my ISP being weird or is there something I can do to fix it?

FFXI's server still sends your client info, but rejects anything you try to tell it on your end whenever you have a case of a quick disconnection that changes your IP. At least that's what I've experienced in the past.

It's like how you can still do /search and other shit while expecting the game to time you out.

You can also zone out and still get the pop KI assuming you pulled/popped it

Is this macro good enough for call beast or do I need a wait before the JA to guarantee the gloves will work?

Amphitrite 3boxable Thf Blm Whm? If not, minimum needed to kill? (Chars: Thf/Drg/Cor/Sch, Whm/Nin, Blm/Brd)

yes. I've done it like that or replacing the thf with a nin. Blm each time was no geared no atma no skilled just for procs and whm was /rdm with ok gear/atmas in case wondering just how gimp you can be. Tank of course was my main so well geared. iirc on nin I wasn't capping evasion so it actually managed to knock shadows down between spells while thf it couldn't.

The main thing to worry about is paying very close attention and stopping the right dmg types right away which is a bit harder 3 boxing. Otherwise it can wreck you

Got random request for hunters roll on bismark. It magically became good vs or is the requester a retard who should have just bought a damn pizza like i suspect as with all weird roll requests?
Nvm. Parsed first fight and that tard had 96% acc. He can gtfo.

Maybe the guy thought the leader wasn't going to use displacers and that tactician's roll is a waste when chaos would have done better to do more damage plus the player could have used RCB instead of pizza to give more attack if it was the case the popper wasn't going to use displacers?

How much counter does a monk have, assuming enhanced counterstance and full counter merits? Is it Base 12%, +5% from merits, and +55% from counterstance?
