Looked in search but I can't seem to find what I'm after. Friend was talking about getting some voyager sallets but we don't have SMNs. So I'm curious how the sac pull method works with..say rdm mnk thf. We have other jobs/people available as well so if you have another strategy so that would be fine. I have no experience with the NM before so I'm not really sure how the hate works after a sac pull.

[evilpaul]

They have party hate and they all link when you pull one. I'm not sure if they actually share hate or not though. The theory is you pull one and sleep the rest, and kill one at a time. Possibly wiping once or more (and don't RR until everyone in your alliance has died or they'll kill you again because of party hate).

Aero II will drop an Invincible'd PLD in a few seconds, btw.

I've noticed that in the Brothers ENM the Mindertaur occasionally moves very slowly, and other times it moves at normal speed. Is there anything in particular that triggers this?

[Leeto]

Is the mindertaur the big one? if it is, he moves amazingly slow when he's above 60% but will get a bit faster after that point.

[Suiram]

Mindertaur moves at normal speed until Eldertaur dies, then he moves at that superslow speed until either a certain amount of time has passed or a certain % of life is taken, not sure which but the above poster said it's damage so I'd go with that. Not sure if Eldertaur would work the same if you'd kill Mindertaur first because I never have.

I still don't understand what Soldier's Drink do.

what exactly are the spawn conditions of Carmine-tailed Janberry? the Asklepios NM. cleared the room where fraudopedia said the PH were and not a pop for 2 hours. very sure 0 people were in the zone.. If its just a lotto pop then it could be 5centuries before it pops {hi2u pre patch thf knife nm}..

is sacrarium fomor codex drop rate higher or lower then aqueducts? wanna know if any diff before i go to farm~

I seemed to get them more quickly in Phomiuna Aqueducts, and it was the same with almost everyone I talked to, but we were soloing as /THF. If you can get TH2 happening in the Sacrarium, then maybe it's better. The main problem with Sacrarium is that most jobs are only going to have access to 2 spawns instead of 3 most of the time.

any bst can pull the one in the maze to the start pretty easy, using a hecteyes pet.

Is there a website anywhere with a comprehensive listing of food effects that won't try to install a trojan on my computer?

[Delekii]

somepage doesn't have the trojan any more, and it was only on the front page anyway, nor was it a risk to anyone using firefox.

http://ffxi.somepage.com/itemdb/food.php if you dont want to go via the front page, but it hasn't been updated in a fair while.

Fiancee is finishing War to 75soon, should have the IS for Perdu Voulge. Worth it or get something else? (Speaking in terms of merits/sky/dynamis/random events; no HNM)
Someone else said Berserkers for 300TP Steel Cyclone?

http://www.mysterytour.biz/ffxi/ has a pretty nicely organized food section, separated by their primary stat i.e. Attack, Accuracy, HP, INT, etc.

quick question

Problem is so few taurs in Sacrarium. We actually find that codex drops far more often in Aqueducts. Soloing is prolly easier in Sacrarium.

well, that's not entirely true. there's always the taurus death room. ^^ for those who don't know, if you keep going straight after the 2 key door instead of turning right, you'll run into a door. open it and there's a huge number of taurus (never stuck around to look) inside the room, poised to aggro anyone who dares enter it.

Can King Behemoth's meteor cast be interupted by WS's like the KS99 Behemoth?

In an old gear thread I seen a PLD with a club equipped. Anyone know which club a PLD would use and why?
