No need to toss them, sell them so that you can afford Phalanx Rings.Originally Posted by Lexa
Send them to me. I'll be sure to dispose of them. Honest. >.>Originally Posted by kazen
To be fair, pre-merits mnk is pretty "meh" in exp. Have yet to see one take hate often except this one JP mnk/thf and that was only after SA+Howling Fist. Though any 2h DD that isn't a complete retard takes hate pretty often...Originally Posted by Furionstormrage
You forgot Choper is 75MNK. I didn't know that MNKs weren't supposed to lot it.Originally Posted by Siralin
But it's strange, everyone knew you were going to sell it. Why did you think I wouldn't know? [They were going to sell Haidate since only 1 person needed. The person decided to not lot it since leaving shell? And nobody said anything about it being not ok to sell it.]
First, stop lying. I haven't lotted NIN, I am THF75 and NIN is 37. So don't say stupid things, go diaf.
For the cyber issue, it's wrong but he is blinded by this woman. He's got a wife but is going to promise his e-gf many things. [incest wut?]
To add to this, I asked some other linkshells. They said Homam Body is never first tier for DRK. You want a set rule, keep it the same for everyone. [Lost me at this last part. Thinking that a DRK won Homam Body. And the "make alot of people when I told them". Think he means make them mad? Apparently Homam Body dropped, but he lotted Homam feet. And since only 1 item per kill, he wasn't allowed to lot body.]
How do you like using LS funds for personal gain?
PS: 8 people from your LS left, I think there is more to the story than you are letting on. Continue stirring up drama and you are apt to lose more members.
[That's the best that I can do.]
MNKs are very often very good, and you know it.Originally Posted by Eaglestrike

I've yet to see a tank holding decent hate and I'm a 67 mnk. A really competent PLD could do it but I haven't met one so far. It really depends of the player more than anything else.Originally Posted by Eaglestrike
PLD recently hit 57 in a party on colibri and for the first time I was actually NEEDING to use Cover. Guess what job I was having to use it on....MNK. Fucking raging fists is retarded. Maybe I had gimp DDs in other parties or this MNK was merited but it was nice to actually have to pay attention to the fights to keep hate for once.Originally Posted by Darkwill
When I was leveling MNK I didnt have any relavent merits stockpiled for it and I still pulled hate far more often that I'd like. Gear and food really makes a big difference, and I had top of the line gear and always ate food (sushi most of the time) even in Colibri camps. From 40 to 75 I met 1 NIN and 2 PLD who were capable of keeping hate off of me relatively consistently, and even then a string of (un?)lucky crits and/or double attacks near the beginning of the fight would grab hate for a good bit. I didn't go out of my way to pull hate, it's just something that happened, even when holding tp or not using berserk. To be fair though, I think the small number of tanks that were capable of holding hate consistently that i cited above is a result of both the power of a well geared MNK/WAR and also the lack of decent tanks you find in random pickup parties. I also parsed almost every xp party from 40-75 and the only DD who ever outparsed me was a MNK who was one level higher than me and similarly geared (happened 2 or 3 times) and a SAM/RNG with Soboro in the early 60's on Colibri.Originally Posted by Siralin

Kinda puts Paladin back 'in style' as a tank again, doesn't it? Hmmm.........
Damn those colobris, they ruining my ffxi.

2004 time warp, there's so much failure in this thread. In the entire page, the though of pld/nin was never mentioned.
My favourites...
A lot of us have experimented with this spell[Phalanx] by the use of a Red Mage subjob, and find it very enjoyable. However, the downside to this is that we have a harder time keeping hate because we do not have access to our Warrior subjob.I'd Still like to see a Nin tank Cerberus. Think thats something reserved for Pld only.Back when RDM got Phalanx, it was an accepted tank. RDM AF is still a subtle hint of that. RDM could still be a great blood tank, but it takes a metric ton of gil to get the gear for it. Most players aren't able to achieve a RDM blood Tank build.
Heck, even RDM blink tank builds are pretty far-fetched investment wise.
what the hellI don't even think we were meant to be a true tank class. Our defense really isn't that much greater than a dd, and we have to rely on defensive abilities just to survive now. We just evolved to it because people still viewed parties in the old everquest paradigm.![]()
Do I even need to say who posted this?
This thread makes it hard for me to defend this site.
Not so much for the content of the post itself or the replies thereafter, but for the lack of need for it's existence at all. What does anyone gain from a thread like this aside from the juvenile thrill of saying "I'm so much better than that loser!" (A reaction I shouldn't hear from anyone on these boards who graduated from a 4-year college)?
I don't like to think of myself as a wet blanket with no sense of humor, but threads like the one I have linked to only makes me think the posters of Alla can do so much better. Getting cheap laughs on the internet at the expense of people you don't know is on par only with daytime talk shows and American Idol, which is about as low as one can go.
It warms my heart to see that most of zam have realised just how much of a flaming moron aeries is now. Except for that graspee guy, but he's also a moron.Originally Posted by Valrath

This thread started out semi-innocent (some confusion between the ingame macros and botting macro by some new guy), but went down hill after some guy stated he doesn't use /equip macros for some lame reason.

"I WS in W. Turban b/c Rampage is random"
Thread's full of shit and gold, imagine that. And surprisingly, no sign of Reij or A73.
You forgot Choper is 75MNK. I didn't know that MNKs weren't supposed to lot it(Haidate).[quote:2ov25hdp]Zammer
But it's strange, everyone knew you were going to sell it. Why did you think I wouldn't know? [They were going to sell Haidate since only 1 person needed. (He agreed to getting paid 1 million gil, I think it was, and splitting 4M gil within the ls. The person decided to not lot it since leaving shell? And nobody said anything about it being not ok to sell it. (LS and the guy who would have gotten the Haidate had agreed upon selling the Haidate, if the Haidate had dropped.)]
First, stop lying. I haven't lotted NIN, I am THF75 and NIN is 37. So don't say stupid things, go diaf. (Guizmo, the 75THF, lotted on Homam feet, but he lost lot on it I think, so against the LS's rule of having the ability of only lotting on 1 Omega piece, this guy ninja lotted Homam body. If you reread his post's he keeps on saying that he hasn't leveled NIN, but the guy selling Haidate meant that he ninja lotted, not lotted on ninja gear.)![]()
For the cyber issue, it's wrong but he is blinded by this woman. He's got a wife but is going to promise his e-gf many things. [incest wut?] (Guizmo is an idiot.)
To add to this, I asked some other linkshells (members). They said Homam Body is never first tier for DRK. You want a set rule, keep it the same for everyone. [Lost me at this last part. Thinking that a DRK won Homam Body. And the "make alot of people when I told them". Think he means make them mad? Apparently Homam Body dropped, but he lotted Homam feet. And since only 1 item per kill, he wasn't allowed to lot body. (See above)]
How do you like using LS funds for personal gain?(1m to Choper, 4M to LS.)
PS: 8 people from your LS left, I think there is more to the story than you are letting on. Continue stirring up drama and you are apt to lose more members. (I think 8 people left the LS from the time he ninja lotted Homam body to the present.) [/quote:2ov25hdp]
Hopefully made it more clear to you guys, and added some background info. The zammer is a EU player from France, so that'll explain the bad English(maybe the ninja lotting too)j/k.
