Kaustra overwrites itself like helices.

Is Heca body good for anything anymore?

Hecatomb harness? No unless, you count town gear. There's plenty of other bodies with the same or more str for those jobs. And the augments are useless.

Is there any way to deal w/ 2box follow lag near the middle of zones? Like have the client prioritize PC's instead of all those fucking NPCs? I hate having to avoid that fucking death fountain in whitegate when I'm multiboxing.

Not that I've found, it has to do with how quickly the game draws models, etc. The framerate adjuster available on windower.net is one way to deal with it, but it just draws everything faster, not just the PCs. Also I had some weird effects with it, I wouldn't really recommend it.

Add a /target <you> to your follow macro. I've found having your cursor on a target forces it to fetch updates for it more often.

I remember someone posting about this, but I dont know what to search for. How do I fix it? Checkfiles found nothing wrong, and deleting names and readding them causes it to bug again.

Was me a week or so ago. I backed up my final fantasy folder and reinstalled pol (just pol, not ffxi).

i've found that ffxiah is better when looking for whole sets (meaning its easier to find them there than to hound ppl here until someone posts one).

Anything special involved in an Proto Omega BST solo?

What are chances of beating ADL without Perfect Defense or Stuns? Just get lucky or kill it quick?

[mdkuser]

zero. at his first split you get 2 unstunable copies do a synch TP move, generally Oblivion smah (AOE 30' high damage, bind, silence).

you can win without perfect defense, but without perfect defense AND no AoE ramuh stuns... good luck. Its possible but good luck, you totally rely on him not being a dick with everything (breakga, casts, TP moves etc).

[Taint]

EXodus LS does him often with no PD and they use regular SCH stuns.

It would take some extreme luck to kill without stuns

Does stunning one stop the others from using TP? Or do they just eat the extra TP moves?

ADL has no regain, so you can engage one and just stun him. Whenever he splits all the clones use a TP move.

Just try to keep your distance so you don't get stomped after throat stab before pet can regain hate, and if you are anywhere within range, make sure it's somewhere on his sides, the range on his conal tp moves is huge. I used /nin to pull/kill the pods myself, but that might not be necessary.

when zombing he will always start with a triple/quadruple tp move. he has regain.

Its extremely low then:

One of our first ADLs, entire alliance was slept for over a minutes and he just stood there swinging.

When Zombieing he does use TP moves but that could be the same as him splitting. When engaged the unengaged clone just sits there swinging, so you can focus stuns on one. My shell uses Squall mainly because of how long it can last, but Exodus does 7+ everyday with SCH stunners focused on one ADL. (we do ADL close to the same time as them, I've seen them kill 100+ this way)

Will the gun pods default to the pet, assuming it has the attention of Omega at the time?

Bring a lot of pet food/mulsims. Maybe falcor wasn't the optimal pet to bring, but Omega hits hard.

Are proto-Omega/Ultima's levels known? Estimating how much evasion I need to use to floor hit rates while solo.

They seem to target someone at random on pop, but if you are way out of range it shouldn't be able to choose you. Keep in mind thou the gunpods still hit pretty hard (like 300-400ish before pdt), and omega can potentially spam throat stab multiple times in a row at low hp; so pet survivability could be an issue.
