Windurst 9-2 is the last mission, though.

Yes, but I assume I didn't get the 10% bonus because I am lacking 2-2. I will know for sure tomorrow after I finish the mission, I just switched nations and accepted it, but I am off to bed.

I skipped windurst 2-2 and was still able to flag/complete the rest of the RoE quests.

For Dominion fights do we know if it's total contribution? My group just did like 20% to Azi Dahaka, but if JPs kill it overnight will I get credit from NPC?

[Trumpy]

I would hope so Sath but I think the following means if ur not there you wont get credit:

Rewards
When the notorious monster is defeated, all characters in the battle area will earn spoils. Additionally, the area where the monster was defeated will enjoy special blessing effects.
*Players must have at least 2 spaces free in their inventory to claim spoils.
(At least five spaces may be required if blessings are in effect that increase the amount of loot obtainable in the area.)

Man that would blow if that were the case. Cuz then nobody is going to touch it, and all of a sudden when the 20% or so message pops up everyone on the entire server will be there.

[Sechs]

Is there combined data somewhere about the new quests? Is it two or three?

[BerenTebogo]

Same as person who posted about Naga Raja kill, everyone who was at Azi Dahaka kill got 2x NQ Eschalixir...and Regen +1 vorseal as thought

Blessings:
Justice: TH+1
Compassion: Increases effect of regen and refresh vorseals
Dignity: Increases Escha Slit yield

I hadn't read well what 9-2 said, and it says it gave me the 10% bonus, so I guess I can live without finishing 2-2 after all. Thank you!

Now to go to Bastok to finish 7-2 :S

flaschbacks to yumcax...

[BerenTebogo]

Yeah, nope. Need to be there for when it dies. So anything you do to the Dominion mobs from 100% to 1% doesn't matter if you're not there when it dies.

THAT is some fucking horseshit.

When has anything ever worked differently in FFXI? Giving rewards without you being there the momber the monster/target dies?
I could understand discussing how this is not right or fair, but I don't get what set you up to have different expectations.

The fact that it's something that takes a day or two to kill with the help of half the server and now there is absolutely zero incentive to contribute since I get the zone bonus anyway?

There's (almost) nothing it could drop that would make it worth my while to do anything but show up at 5% and snipe rewards if I happen to be around.

[Tile]

yea going to have to say it stupid, maybe if they had a progress like in Reives. Do X amount to help out in fight unlock Vorseal. Do X amount and be for kill get item drops.

[BerenTebogo]

Seriously I barely dragged my main group out to Azi Dahaka yesterday under the assurance of "you'll still get credit!"

On our servers the JP are the ONLY ones doing anything to these so far. Azi had moved a total of 3% the entire NA primetime yesterday until we showed up and did about 25% to it in 20 minutes or so.

Now it will be JP doing 100% of the damage to it ever. Thanks SE.

So what you are saying is wkr when they came out? Is there anywhere safe in area you can afk after doing some work?

[BerenTebogo]

They disappear after 30 minutes and only repop 3 hours later and you need the Elvorseal each time, so nope.

[dasva]

Wait wut? Mobs that take way longer than 30 minutes to kill that only last for 30 minutes and you have to go back each time to get the Elvorseal each time? So basically erases any credit you did every 30 min unless it dies? What the actual fuck. That's arguably more stupid than the old AV should take you 18 hours of constant fighting statement they made way back when

[Tile]

Escha Zi'tah one on carby went from 80%+ then we hit a wall and it despawned at 2%... so this system is terrible
