Brutal earring(or any double attack) & multi-hit weapons(lets say kraken)

Hows it work?

Brutal's DA activates = kraken gets 2 hits total? I've heard that's how it works with ridill, and is why people choose to drop DA merits when they go rid/joy, I assume kraken would be the same.

Edit: I believe the reason for this is because the DA check is done before ridill's multi hit check?

Triple Attack > Double Attack > additional hit's from weapon if applicable

If 1 of the above happens before the right occurs, the checks for additional effect on weapon will cease to be applied that round. If triple attack activates, double attack and any multihit features of the weapon will not happen. If Double Attack activates, multihit features of the weapon will not apply.
Exception to this is Virtue Weapons, of which if the extra hit occurs, it is also subject to having Triple Attack or Double Attack getting a chance to activate.

[Rocl]

Let me rephrase the question
"Which monsters does Hide not work on?"

things that can track you other then sight

So this bit about the wiki on hiding from Puks and Undead is completly incorrect? I figured if there were two sound mobs it worked on, there should be more.

[Osede]

it should be "not work" on those monster track by smell. Like orcs etc. Thats how got a time some thf bring dezons of deodorize potion when pting in garlaige on bats >.>

Hide can work on skeleton or not can be test by aggroing it then use hide and observes its reaction. Supposely it should work, but then the bone were track by sound so...

How exactly do you get the title Extremely Discerning Individual?

How exactly do you get the title Extremely Discerning Individual?

I'm pretty sure that title (Along with all the titles similar to it) are from the Airship quests where you pick which one like...lost something or other. If you keep doing it over and over and over again eventually your title gets better >:3

I said Exactly for a reason. I have Very, but I'm unable to get Extremely, even after taking an airship a day for awhile.

You receive it by successfully returning a package to each separate character model when doing the quest A Discerning Eye. Not sure if it's both A and B faces you have to do, or if just one counts towards it.

Oh it's on wiki? Wasn't the last time I checked, anyway, thanks.

Hmmm, I wonder if it does each face in order or something...

If you SATA then Hide and you have no hate on a mob that aggro sneak/smell/true-whatever like HNMs SATA will work even on a tank that is front or side.

I read somewhere that if you have undead on you, sneak up and hide, then hide will work.

What the hoof is the ??? in Empyreal Paradox for?

The one next to entrance to the Promathia/Apoc.Nigh BCNM.
Reads "The air before you appears warped and distorted".

I thought that ??? spot was for restarting Apocalypse Nigh. If you drop your AN earring and talk to that spot you can restart the quest again.

For ENM50 in Spire of Vhazl, there's 3 small memory recpetacles and by killing them you unlock different types of damage for the main receptacle.

Does Blue Magic count as melee damage or magic damage for this?

Thank you.

Anyone ever tried to use Deodorize in lebros supply? Crawler follow scent, and deodorize would make training a joke if you can unagro them easily

So I've seen a bunch of topics briefly touching on this but for Warrior/Rampage: Byakko's Haidate or War AF2 Legs?

Enhancing or Elemental magic merits for a RDM with capped Enfeebling merits and Slow/ParaII?

Suppose I'm asking how useful Enhancing Magic Merits can be to typical RDM.

Personally...Enhancing would only really benefit En-Spells and Phalanx and thereby only be used in solo play/melee whereas Elemental would probably save me MP on the rare ocassions that I do Nuke and would probably see use in Solo as well as LS Events/Farms.

Stick them all in Elemental then?

So I've seen a bunch of topics briefly touching on this but for Warrior/Rampage: Byakko's Haidate or War AF2 Legs?

I would have to say Haidate. DEX+15(+7.5acc) will do more for rampage than +5STR and 1% double attack in my opinion. The DEX will also increase your critical hit rate making your numbers even bigger. Warrior can easily get a lot of STR in other slots(e.g. hecatomb), whereas DEX isnt in abundance as much.
