    Cor 2-hour question

    I had a quick question involving the Corsair 2-hour. Now i've only pt'd with a few, but each time at the end of the pt they've used their 2 hours to restore abilities, including other jobs 2 hour.

    My question, is can a corsair restore another corsairs 2hr, allowing them to in turn restore the used corsair's 2hour?

    I don't want to get into why i'm wondering this, but i am curious and unable to test it myself.

    No, Wild Card doesn't affect Wild Card.

    thanks for the response, but Aww

    i found myself dreaming over the prospects of a pt with mnk, mnk, brd, whm, cor, cor just continually refreshing 2hours and hundred fisting through mobs on a soul voiced minuet x 2 and continuous bene's.

    Back to the dream world i guess.

    That would be hard to do in the first place, since Wild Card only refreshes 2-Hours on a VI.

    Actually, I think it restores them on a 3 (maybe 4?) or higher. I know that 6 restores all abilities and all MP, either a 4 or a 5 restores all abilities with 300% TP added, and a few other nifty things.

    I've actually been wondering this too, though, because I knew Wild Card couldn't restore itself on the same person (they fixed that), but I wasn't sure about another player.

    as far as i know

    1/2 - restores normal abilities
    3 - 100% TP + normal abilities restored
    4 - 300% TP + normal abilities restored
    5 - some mp restored (maybe 50%?) + all abilities including 2hours
    6 - all mp restored + all abilities including 2hours

    I've had 3, 4, 5, and 6 rolls on Wild Card restore 2hrs and sometimes they haven't. I think it's just random and luck based like everything is with COR.

    As far as I've always been able to tell, the number you roll on Wild Card has nothing to do with resetting 2hrs, there's just a low chance for it to happen on any of them.

    one time me and 2 friends sorta screwd up on dobson flies.. and had used up our 2hours, but wanted to try again

    so i said we should go to whitegate and /sh for corsairs to come use their 2hour on us so we can get ours refreshed - i had like a few of my friends come and change to lvl 1 cor to try this also

    in anycase.... we had about 6-8~ corsairs come and use their 2 hour

    each time they rolled 1-4 no 2hours were refreshed
    the last one rolled a 5 and our 2hour abilities were refreshed........

    talk about pure abuse of cor's 2hour lol

    This is how my CoP set beat the Airship fight. We didn't have to wait 2 hours between tries, but we did use about 10 CORs going 1/4 on the BC

    Heh, never considered that to save time in between BC. Perhaps you'll see shouts in Jeuno or White Gate such as these:

    {Corsair} {Wild Card} Restore your parties 2 hrs: 1 million gil, PST

    This is the 100% correct information on Wild Card.

    Sorry Russta.

    Hardly 100% correct when it's stating 2hrs are recharged for 5 and 6 when it's still just a chance. I still don't fully believe that only 5 and 6 can restore them.

    It's not 100% correct when your saying the tp rolls don't restore 2hrs. I've restored 2hrs on 4's before. I've also rolled 5 and 6's and not had 2hrs restored.

    Sorry your the one that's wrong.

    You know, I think you really need to analyze it more and instead of just looking at what happens during an XP PT or when you use it at random, actually get data just on using the 2hr.
    Over the course of probably, oh, 100 Wild Cards or so, this is what I see to be true. There is no random chance of a 2hr being restored on a IV or lower, unless the chance is so low that it's 10%. Which then it's not even worth mentioning.

    I have never, ever see a 2hr restored on a I-IV. I have always seen 2hrs restored, 100% of the time, on a V or VI.

    Always.
