GM got Nerfed

[Lockecole]

Dragn, galka ninja? Pretty sure he does.

I seriously forget what race he was, but Galka sounds about right..man tell him I used to play Socom and we migrated from that to FFXI...I gotta talk to him, so much to catchup on, but I like dont have any of his info.

There are actually two Judge's Swords in the dat files ... there is a DMG 99 Delay 99 one, and a DMG 0 Delay 240 one. Based on the item number, I'd guess that the DMG 0 one was added in the game later.

Then it's confirmed, GM was nerfed, their swords replaced with 0 swords. roflcopterz

upcoming maintenance adds a quest where the GM's can level their NPC's to 65 to get their old swords back

Not all GMs D: only the NA GMs. JP get one that does damage.

Roflmao, if you can show me log proof of that I'll beleive it. Although it would be quite funny, if the JP developers thought NA GM's weren't trustworthy enough to have the 99 dmg sword. Almost like a punishment to an employee. lol so funny XD

[Khamsin]

They should have made a HQ Judge's set for sGM (aka JP GMs).

NQ: Judge's Sword (DMG:0 Delay:240)
HQ: Justice's Sword (DMG:99 Delay:99 Additional Effect: Enpwn)

NQ: Judge's Cuirass (DEF:0)
HQ: Justice's Cuirass (DEF:50 Physical Damage: 'Pwn Spikes' Effect)

NQ: Judge's Subligar (DEF:50)
HQ: Justice's Cuisses (DEF:0)

[thompkinsthebrian]

i had to laugh at enpwn and pwn spikes

[Ciampolo]

Yea, Dragn is in my LS. LV75 Galka NIN.

[Metah]

I play on Lakshmi too, but I haven't seen Dragn in a long time.

Maguspk and me partied a couple times before too, but I bet he forgot me by now .

what is your in game name?

It is the same as the name here.... Metah.

[deadzee]

Gave him the message, Locke~

[Zigrah]

I would be more inclined to believe that "Senior GM's" have the damage swords who just are coincidentally Japanese. I'm sure the regular JP gm's have the weak sword too. If you recall the person who ended up killing Vrtra in that thread was a Senior GM.

[Not Kuno]

GMs have wierd debugs and stuff, and so they probably have one to make themselves really strong. Didn't someone have an SS of a GM do invincible over and over or something?

[Ajani]

Yeah I saw that SS. He said he could solo some NM and used it like 3 times in a row.

[Maguspk]

Yeh GM's have debugs and stuff but I doubt they can change their gear, since there is no reason for them to.

[Khamsin]

While their gear is awesome for defense and damage, it lacks terribly in accuracy and evasion, as well as mage stats. If they wanted to nuke, debuff, or melee with acc/haste, or tank as NIN with eva/enmity they would want to change their gear. Of course, as GMs, they probably have infinite HP and 100% accuracy, so the point is probably moot anyway.

Though speaking of nuking, I wonder why that sGM that killed Vrtra decided to melee it when he could have just cast Flare II on her? Or gathered a team of GMs to manaburn it. Maybe he didn't feel like going back to his GM Mog House to change jobs or something.

[thompkinsthebrian]

cause it was quicker to jusyt solo it. do you bring a party of 5 level 70BLMs and a 70BRD to kill a goblin mugger in valkurm dunes

[Khamsin]

lol, true. At least, that explains why not to bring a group when you can solo.

But since BLMs kill faster than melees, you'd think the GM would just cast Thundaga IV or something rather than whack at it.

[thompkinsthebrian]

maybe they always have 300TP and just continuously WS it. which in fact would make melee faster

[Kiro]

Samurai GM. Black Mage GM with perma-Chainspell. Samurai does constant Light. BLM GM bursts 4-5 times with Thunder IV or Thundaga III without running out of MP (Chainspell+Manafont I guess). That'd take down any NM or HNM in a few seconds. D:

[thompkinsthebrian]

ThunderIV?

you mean ThunderV
