New (Useless) Gear

[Zhila]

Are these new spells, or have I just never seen them before?

Moogle Rhapsody
BRD Lv.1

Protected Aria
BRD Lv.29
Teaches the Protected Aria.

Hydra armor -> Dynamis - Tav (Duh!?)

Would be nice if hydra head armor made your face black with glowing eyes like the dynamis mobs. SE is too lazy to program something neat like that though

Definately new, I wonder what they do and how to get them

[Dezzimal]

I'm fairly certain Rhapsody has been around but not implemented. Don't know about Aria though. If you want to be certain go search alla, they data-mine the dats for things like this and they should be in their database.

[Moosey]

moogle rhapsody has been there for a while, though the second one i havent heard of before.

Screw the magic burst and conserve mp one, I want the freaking dmg to mp one.

If you're not a paladin, it won't help much. 3% will be 30 MP from 1000 damage (after stoneskin...) Thats not a lot. But for a paladin it's going to be a ton.

The earrings look pretty nice. It was a pretty under equipped slot before, now it'll be like every other and I'll have 10 different peices for it. Hopefully. If these things are like Divine Might and you can only pick one, I'll go emo.

Storms of fate (old one)

Shadows of the Departed
client: esha'ntarl
summary: strange reading have been recorded from the emptiness surrounding the mothercrystals. Travel to the crags of Holla, Dem, and Mea and investigate the coordinates where this phenomenon is occuring.

Apocalypse Nigh
client: Esha'ntarl
summary: The next incarnation of the Keeper of the Apocalypse is attempting to cross over into Vana'diel. Sing the Lay of the Immortals before the fifth mothercrystal and put and end to this threat once and for all!

yeah, it's most likely that esha'ntarl going to give us another shiny new choosable item, seeing as she has lots of 10,000 years old treasures >_>

ummmm NIN/DRK that earring is hot. any extra MP is great to have

[Sigmakan]

/sigh was hoping for an uber RNG earring . . . instead we get one that seems to be for a RDM . . .

And SE . . . please stop giving us rangers all these items that give rattk but take away racc . . . its fucking stupid . . . those items are basically useless.

Finally a use for those goddamn memory fluxes in the 3 main crags? I think so!

Carbuncle wants you to visit all the
protocrystals and gather the

Apocalypse Nigh

Empyreal Paradox BC fight against Bahamut, maybe? No, wait, was the 5th mothercrystal destroyed or is it below Al'Taieu? Damn convoluted plot lines from a year ago blending together.....

fck you olibanum sachet

ifrits bow pls ;x

[NynJa]

Nynja's input on good / useless gear:

Some of this shit is actually pretty good. Some are watered down pieces of previously obtainable gear, with shitty drop rates.



Ifrit's Bow
DMG:40 Delay:360 STR+3
Ranged Attack+10
Latent effect:
Increases rate of critical hits
Lv72 WAR, RDM, THF, PLD, DRK, BST, RNG, SAM, NIN

This shit totally obliterates Arco de Velociad. All depending on how easy this is to obtain, expect prices of Arco to plummet.



Titan's Baselarde
DMG:23 Delay:186 VIT+4 Attack+8
Latent effect: DMG:28
Lv72 WAR, BLM, RDM, THF, PLD, BRD, NIN

This is a watered down Blau Dolch I assume. Good since Blau isnt exactly easy to obtain, and certain servers carries a heavy price tag.



Garuda's Sickle
DMG:90 Delay:501 AGI+4
Latent effect: Accuracy+13
Lv72 WAR, BLM, DRK, BST

DMG is kinda low in comparisant to Orich Scythe or Death Scythe, but if the latent is easy to trigger, Acc+13 is nothing to scoff at, which would leave room for a lot of STR/ATK pieces elsewhere.

Dammit I want that bow for my monk, how come we always get shafted on the range / ammo slot, and don't say anything about the Tiphia piece of shit either!

Because monks are clearly underpowered and come in last in damage parses consistantly.

[Onizuka]
