Something is weird about the grasshopper mobs. They either can use Nature's Meditation as a JA(requiring 0% TP to do so) or they use it as a counter against offensive JAs(Jump/Flourish) and WS. Seems like when I want to self SC, they always use Nature's Meditation after my first WS(they gain damage immunity as its charging btw, as I've tried to kill them at 20% while it was readying it). Also does Nature's Meditation give massive Regain? Seems like a few seconds after they use it they can TP again.

Well if it's the first couple of things you said then wouldn't matter if it was regain... that said anyone tried taking it or dispelling it to see if it is a buff? Hell maybe the move itself does nothing and they merely get a status while using it. And maybe they get super tp for hits that are reduced to 0? Play around with it and see whats up lol

So how fucked am I, I bought crystal to re-activate and didn't notice the card saved was an ooooold card. Should I call their customer service hell in the morning and see if they can stop the payment before I get LM-11?

How did that new high DMG h2h math out as compared to current options?

Edit: for dyna farming what's going to be best?

I have fully geared mnk
I have a somewhat geared dnc, but not terrible, would prob need to do magian wep though
Lv bst, which I have nothing for at all
Lv thf, which I have dnc and mnk gear that carries over(thaumas basically; + dagger is already skilled), but nothing else

and if lv'ing a new job is the way to go, what's a decent gear set that'd I could use for farming dyna that doesn't take long to get/anything I have to go really out of the way for

I would definitely contact them ASAP to be pro-active about it.

Is 1-10 starter zone + 10-30 Gusgen mines still the best bet for pre 30 leveling?

is there anyway to make the hp/mp bar bigger?
my monitor is 1920x1080
I can read every text in other games/websites etc, but if i try to play ffxi with 1920x1080 the hp/mp is so smal, i cant read it no matter how close im to the screen lol
maybe there is a option that i didnt see? because if i watch youtube videos of player who recorded ffxi videos with 1920x1080 and watch them fullscreen on youtube the hp/mp-bar looks almost double size compared to mine

If you use WIndow4 turn the UI multiplier to x2. Works great for me.

Includes seekers gear. Seems to be a little glitchy at the moment, though. Bloom Buckler, Kumarbi's Akar, Scuta Cape.

Forgive me if I'm doing a "Changed Ridill drop rate" post here, but does pet enmity seem a bit... wonky since the update? I was dinking around on smn and usually I have no issue with keeping my enmity low enough to never pull hate off my pet, but the mobs were constantly ignoring my avatars and trying to pin me to a wall.

It's very possible that the mobs were just doing solid damage and eroding hate from my pets faster than I'm used to, but it felt a bit off to me.

PS: Nice April fools there! Scared the crap out of me I'd done something very stupid and angered the BG gods until I remembered the date!

Hate from dmg and curing was lowered supposedly to about 1/3 of previous amounts. Also ratio update may have upped your pets dmg intake

[Spekkio]

Possibly. Odd behaviors still though, almost as if a blp is a hate reset. Even if I just used a damaging blp that should generate some nontrivial enmity, using another blp right after still draws the mob to start chasing me. Will make pet tanking all the harder if that's just life now. That's a bit of a shame.

What does attack cap at?

[grevenilvec75]

What does attack cap at?

2.25 times your enemy's defense. If you're asking about attack in the equipment window then theres no know ingame cap (other than one imposed by hardware/software limitations).

[damet]

What i dont understand is all these situational gear where one gear is better than the other depending on if attack is capped or not. How are you suppose to determine if your attack is capped or not to know what gear to use?
