FFXI Bugs

[Russta]

So are you saying that if the NA version has stats text that differs from what the jp version item says, then the JP version's displayed stats are the ones that are correct (always)?

The game is developed by Japanese people then it's translated into English so yes.

I was fighting Omega in the Airship BC, was gonna use my 300% staff TP that I had saved up, but my list of WS was empty and I couldn't use a WS until I finally typed it out in /ws

Really annoying when things don't show up in the log when they actually happen. How can I start casting a spell before the previous one goes off? How can stun wear off before it hits. How can a stun be seen as the first animation to claim a mob, then see provoke after, yet the log will say provoke first.

How can I gain a CC level off of only .6? I swear I'd been counting correctly........ (this is why it's gay to count your tenths).

I've melee'd genbu PLENTY of times as thf/sam (No shadows, and I dont bother putting third eye up) and not once have I randomly taken damage.

You've seen how bad lag can affect the chat log (*cue vudoodoodoo doing 8 rampages to fafnir after fafnir had died*). For all you know, it could have been turtle stomps/head butt showing up late (cone WS that takes shadows, forget which one it is), or water breath showing up late.

Genbu has counter, its very easy to see and wont show up in log ever. Fast out of order attacks resuting in blood effects while shadows are up, and also on other people while hate is solid.

pld with earth staff isnt going to get counter enough to notice.. try it with hasted / double marched nin and say it dont counter.. lol

We use nin's for more than kirin ?!?!?

they didnt even use nins for kirin until I joined.

another bug: mob WS / ability never "miss" while shadows are up. much like range attack was (still is?)

I've come to the conclusion that Crabs are of the PLD genre, and when they use "Big Scissors," its a PLD using a Rosenbogen(sp?) since it will always absorb one shadow and not miss, but miss you if you are unblinked.

[Krandor]

Sorry to semi-necro, but has anyone encountered a glitch since the update yesterday where they can't see Detectors in sky?

Both me and a LS member couldn't see them at all, though they still showed on the radar ala removing the darter file ._. I assumed it was some glitch from having a few dats modified (font and race converter), but the guy who couldn't see them either hasn't modded his game at all.

wow, didn't know that. that sounds right though when i think about it. i can't remember when i've had shadows up and a ranged attack on me missed on its own instead of absorbed by shadows.

kinda sucks but not too big of a deal i guess

<.< Ever popped Ix'Drk? Sure would be nice for those RNGs to not strip shadows in .00000000000000000000000000005784609287340987867 seconds off a NIN or THF (Granted, with how fast they attack, it would be more like .00000029672908675460987 instead)

[Sylvrdragon]

wtf.... disregard that, hit Quote instead of Edit accidentally

[Lyramion]

Another fun fact many people dont realize : When a Grah uses flashga, do not cast Blindna, but instead, Erase.

Before they patched it Flash was a Blindna spell, after Patch need erease. Back in the day I blindna some ppl that got Flashed by Antican PLDs.

there's a nifty delete post button in the corner.

Are you serious? It's possible with a little haste gear, to blink an Ix'RNG without taking a hit, you just need to make sure you make the most out of each shadow and stack everything.

[Kurp]

Why even stand in melee distance of one of those Ix'DRK pets, unless you're fighting severly undermanned?... I've held one of them for almost a half hour with it doing nothing but shooting at me. Didn't get hit more then three or four times and then only because I was watching TV. <.<

The worst thing about that was Flash overwrote and removed Blind on a mob. It used to suck partying with a White Mage who actually understands the concept of when to use Flash because I had to constantly re-apply Kurayami.
