Monstrosity: Abilities and General Mechanics

[Karbuncle]

It wasn't too bad, I kept my alt char acter with me on a legendary tiger to keep me hasted and between double exp and RoE I was making about 60k-70k exp/hr in Buburimu.

Sorry if I don't follow. When you're synced in Bubu you can simply stay there (30 cap) and continue to rake in exp while under the effects of the cap, right?

That's right.

Well got spriggan to 99 and still only 1 move and normal war/blm stuff and no unlocks.... but that one move is pretty strong. Especially with MS

Spoiler: show

For fly, At 90 deblitating drone lowered stats by 8 for about a minute. Also did 2. Venom was still just 1/tic and lasted 4 min.

Anal torque

Path A: 35 hp/mp
Path B: 35 hp, 8 evasion, 10 def
Path C: 35 hp, 4 mdb. (this might be useable I think?)

I knew that move would be OP from the beginning... I only got Sprig to 30 but even using it in those ranges it just ripped sh*t open. good stuff :D

[Vriska]

Levelling Elasmoth is absolutely hilarious, Souleater is retardedly OP coming off 16k HP.

Any more TP moves after 70 or am I grinding for that sweet, sweet instinct at this point?

[Karbuncle]

Ecliptic Meteor is the last TP move you get =0

[Kainstryder]

So I think new windower is glitched, lol

Edit: Nevermind, I'm retarded, had blinkmenot on from WHM still. Still, this makes Apkallu more bearable to play!

So it seems you can get direct drop of lvl 99 torques now with augments. So of course right after I make an anal torque and fully augment it I get a rank 11 one. That's a waste of 100k infamy lol

[Gannon]

Roc II STR+15 Double Attack+1% STP+6 for 7 points.

[dasva]

So before I wondered what happened if you were 99 and kept xping... and turns out yep you just capped out and get nothing though it still says you get xp and then when you change jobs you lose it all

[Gannon]

Amphiptere III is Triple Attack +3% HP+5% Wind macc+10 for 12 points

[Prothescar]

12 points wtf

[dasva]

So one bad part about RoE is you don't always see level ups and therefore moves but so I know cock gets contagion transfer between 53 and 75 lol. Costs 200 tp.

Anyways some interesting notes about it...you can get multiple transfers and it transfers buffs and debuffs from the mob to you. Does the regular cock version do that lol?

[NynJa]

Yeah, its supposed to, just no one knows because the only mobs that uses Contigion Transfer is a shitty Cock BCNM that drops nothing, and http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Chickcharney

[dasva]

Haha if they actually did that more it could lead to some funny strats

[Draylo]

That move was annoying in abyssea, it got stupid powerful.

[Trumpy]

When you get a new instinct or monster unlocked it has a scholar emote lightbulb. Has it always done this and i am just now noticing?

Always acommpanied by a message so lets you know easy when you get stuff. New moves too I think. However if you get a level without gain lvl message you wont get any of that

[Trumpy]

Yea, ive seen the messages, but I had not noticed this lightbulb effect and sound when gainin a instinct or monster unlocking until after this update. Since the update i have only unlocked a monster and instinct at the same time so i wasnt sure which was causing the effect either if not both. before update it was much like learning a blu spell where you would sometimes miss you learned it (because only a message would scroll by sometimes a few lines above you have defeated such and such. alot of times im multitasking like watchin TV at the same time so my eyes arent peeled to the chatlog), except when i was anticipating it and new the level was coming. If it was recently added i very much like this feature. they should add it to blu spell learning!
