I was doing Reives in Morimar last night for the first time and it's pretty much perfect. The reives are almost in a perfect loop and there are seven of them. There was never more than a ~3-4 minute wait for a Reive, and there were a good 30-40 people doing them. When you get to the last one, you can bivouac back to the first and repeat. Was getting approximately 20,000-25,000 bayld per hour (2500-3800 per reive), depending how many people were there, and I was on WHM of all jobs. Apparently it's way easier to cap (or near-cap) on WHM than I thought. If you just find a few people to hit with a fully powered Cure V and keep buffing yourself and others you're pretty much good. You don't even need to melee. Problem arises when 5+ SMNs show up and start spamming their broken AoE healing pacts (not to mention the lag that causes, holy shit), but if you're in a party, you can get around that by just starting to cast AoE buffs and Curaga II (very) frequently. RDM sub helps also, not so much for the extra MP, but for the free evaluation credit after you convert and cure yourself (which you can do about twice per reive because of the ability restoration).

Sad.

Quetz here:
Ceizak 58% 2/3 Biv
Yahse 45% 3/3 Biv
Morimar 45%
Hennetiel 30%

Don't worry, those numbers will be falling this afternoon.

[DmS]

Still rising surprisingly. Just not many Naakaul fights on the server atm.

[Azat]

Fiend Activity seems to be hit or miss, some have access to it, some don't. Seems to be related to your personal Scout's coalition rank, but no verification yet.

Just to confirm this, I received access to the Fearsome fiend activity info after reaching Disciple with Scouters.

it sucks on whm when a PLD decides to super tank and nobody steals his mobs (nothing to cure)

[Tardevil]

Is there a way to tell if a Naakual is being faught without sending tells to random people in the zone and asking?

[RicFlair]

IS there any benefit of ranking up (Petitioner, Probationer, Disciple etc) in a particular coalition aside from more access to Coalition Task Assignments?

Only known benefit so far that I can think of.

JPs will /seacom it

I'm sure solo on WHM would suck, I was in a party. Easy in a party, can just have others pull stuff to kill even if someone is trying to supertank. In that scenario, the thing that makes it most difficult is the healing BP spam from summoners.

Only benefit so far, but they specifically said that your coalition ranks will be tied to how much your KI cost is reduced for Naakual entries after this week's update.

Sometimes people shout. Like some guy was shouting Magma mitigation armor wildskeeper reive in auto translate. Have no idea what the first part is actually from though and couldn't find it in my autotranslate

[Rocl]

Magma mitigation armor is the KI you buy for Achuka?

[dasva]

So it is. For some odd reason it wasn't going into my auto trans after seeing it so I was confused

[NynJa]

KI's wont go into auto-trans if you dont own them I believe

Trying to compile all the reive drops, but I don't remember them all. Can anyone fill in the blanks?

Foret: Saffron, ...?
Morimar: Marble Nugget, Midrium Ore, Sulfur, Flint Stone, Matamata Shell
Ceizak/Yahse: Herb Seeds, Ulbuconut, Urunday Log, Locust Elutriator, maybe some other locusts?

Not sure if Gates areas overlap with Morimar/Foret, and whether Cirdas has its own set (I assume it does).

[Helel]

Foret: saffron blossom, hemlock, wijnruits, herb seed, fresh marjoram, fresh mugwort, maybe some others.

[Fake]

can get moko grass from foret iirc.

[Byrthnoth]

AFAIK, it's anything you can harvest:

Or mine/log etc. My drops in Cidras, for example, were Luminium ore & Mythril ore.
