Fulad-Zereh/heca(with 4 crit dmg and swd skill)/rajas/jupiters(with 6 att)
aethling/wanion/heca (4 crit rate)/Huginn Aug (10 crit dmg)

This is pretty much the standard goal right now. Have never seen any recommendations for Phorcys.

Same race, job/subjob, merits, buffs, mob and debuffs? Did you look how much time your TP set needed for 100 TP, and lowered the 30% ODD of Almace accordingly if it was higher than 30 seconds?

I usually choose Hydra RNG as the target mob because it's hard enough that attack isn't going to be capped naturally (for one-handers), its stats are pretty high so some effort has to be made to cap/increase dDEX and fSTR, yet isn't something like Qilin without Stalwarts or Ig-Alima.

Same ones you listed. I didn't mess with the tp set I found from the link in the calc thread so that's the only thing I can think of that maybe it makes it up have a higher average ws tp or something. I wasn't really paying attention to anything other than ws though.

Yeah it's a decent mob just saying that mob sorta favors the excal setup since the added att matters but the extra acc from the cdc set doesn't

So thinking about making a mythic and trying to get as much done as I have to before I decide which one and as much as I can tribox.... so is it feasible to dual box the beastmen HNMs, same thing for farming ichor? And do you have to be on that part of the quest to do the assualt portion or can you do it ahead of time?

[Fake]

You need to decide what mythic you are doing before you can start the assault redo portion, everything else can be done ahead of trading the weapon.

All the beastmen kings can easily be 2 boxed, mnk + whm was no problem and I imagine any decent DD + whm or sch will be fine.

You can't efficiently farm ichor with just 2 accounts since you get kicked after 10mins, better to just shout til you get 6, even if the other 4 chars do nothing you can clear a tier 3 easily in 30mins.

Tokens are the worst part, flee hacking (lol) while 4 boxing I was able to average 7k~ per run, starting at floor 95 and doing 15-25 floors per run.

[mdkuser]

you can farm Nyzul token on a mule while doing assaults on your main, saves 1 month. the wyrmseeker item is deliverable.

[dasva]

Yeah I should be fine on tokens. At 110k right now. Only getting about 3k a run but that's cause it's just bst +gimp whm and a fishing mule at rune. Well and no fleeing or normal nyzle tools. Well looks like I'll wait then on the assaults

As long as your mule is captain and has done the prereq quest.

Just a random thought that's been bugging me. How was the doctor status password on Strange Apparatus figured out initially?

Was it someone the devs teased in a book or at Vana'fest at some point like they did with goblin drink?

Is Plastron being listed as giving a duration bonus to absorbs a mistake (as I expect), or is it an effect not listed on the armor due to an error?

[Byrthnoth]

Thanks, it was just a mistake on the page. I've fixed it.

Mistake.

I remember sweating bullets making Plastron when Kunwu was first introduced, good times.

Anyone have an updated Mob namechange xml? Just realized there've been multiple updates since my hiatus, and none of them work now! The old thread where it was being dabbled with is horribly out of date too. D:

I use mostly byrths though I have some I added and updated myself a few months ago for trials. You got anything in particular you need?

[Fwahm]

If you use Aura Steal or Absorb-Attri to steal JoL's boost effect (+300% damage), then you use a multi hit WS, does it apply to the entire WS, or only the first hit?

Do you have the IDs for Twashtar Path recorded? Noctous Weapon, Serra, Black Triple Stars, Bugbear, La Velue, Hovering Hotpot.

[dasva]

Honestly I can't remember which ones are old ones I used and which are new otehr than the first 2 on the path I know I did but here's what I have. Most haven't been changed though

Nocuous Weapon
<name-change id="17563797" old="Boggart" new="Boggart!" />
<name-change id="17563799" old="Boggart" new="Boggart!" />
Black triple star (this is actually the reason I decided to get into name changes lol. Still took like 26 hours for 1 pop and I said F that)
<name-change id="17227968" old="Midnight Wings" new="Midnight Wings!" />
<name-change id="17227988" old="Midnight Wings" new="Midnight Wings!" />

Serra
<name-change id="16793645" old="Jagil" new="Jagil!" />

Bugbear Strongman (though honestly no real need for this guy it's easy ph to find since they don't move still can take 16 hours for 1 spawn)
<name-change id="16822421" old="Bugbear Bondman" new="Bugbear Bondman!" />
<name-change id="16822426" old="Bugbear Bondman" new="Bugbear Bondman!" />

La velue

<name-change id="17121554" old="Smilodon" new="Smilodon!" />



I'm pretty sure my hoverpot is wrong... but if you look on page 3 there is updated ones for the dungeon change which should be right. It's still a bitch though.

[spider123]

Thanks, Das <3

[Eldelphia]

Is a Love Torque still worth having?

[Khajit]

Sneak attack still exists.

[Sechs]

Combat Skillup Earring and Ring.
Do the effect stack or not?
