Signet Bonus limitation.

[Wizerd]

So let me get this straight... If you walk up to a mob or pull a mob with signet no eva/def bonus. But if you have a mob at like 5% and pull another mob (All being EM<) and you kill one mob and auto attack the next, your eva/defis increased?

Any target that you're locked onto and engaged. You don't need to literally have "auto-attacked" it with the /autotarget feature.

The exp bonus only works on EM or less mobs.. you sure it wasn't just the T mobs you saw?

No, this is not correct. I got an EXP bonus in sky off Aura Statues (VT-IT) in a low man party.

When fighting dc mobs in sea on pld/sam I noticed no significant increase in defense or evasion; one squid left me in a state where I had to rest. I went out to Cape Terrigan and was able to kill dc cockatrice without needing any rest at all.

I just assumed bonuses weren't available in sea at that point, but I guess the resting bonus has the same trigger as cp items where as the def/eva/exp bonuses require you be in an area thats subject to conquest.

QFT.

I think the grey area is like this..

conquest areas = all the regions that you can see on the conquest map

non-conquest areas in the old region = areas which don't appear on the region map and dont give u CP. therefore don't give you signet bonus.
however, since they're part of the older game b4 besieged was defined, they'd be 'perpetually out of region control' so items which were triggered by it were affected there.
...Correct me if im wrong, but these areas shd be lumoria, limbus, dynamis and promyvion

ToA areas = items pertaining to conquest control don't work at all.. nor does signet..

My intruder earring works in dynamis, and also in sea. As for limbus not too sure. The funny part is.. it also works inside bastok.. even though i'm from bastok. I guess Bastok doesn't control bastok <.<

i went and manaburned nexus statue's for about 2 hours with 3 blm's, 1 of which forgot to get signet and was stuck with sanction, with a 4 person party i was getting more xp per kill with signet than she was with sanction.

Are you suprised?

Not really.. i'm from bastok so my resentment cape works more often

[Tjonke]

Any dynamis area seems to be part of this rule as well. I always bring my Master Caster Bracelets for that +enfeebling skill when I'm doing dynamis. And I notice when we are in the area for a long time and my Signet wears off that I can't land sleep as secure as I could with the Signet on.
So in Dynamis you might as well make sure to get Signet before entering and the noTP loss and increased healing also works in here. Not sure if the higher defense/evasion works though since as a BLM I never engage to mobs anyway. =)

Not losing tp and getting to full hp many times faster when farming ghrahs on mnk nin or thf qualifies as "less shitty" to me. A bit of extra xp/lp would never hurt, but it would have been icing on the cake, not the cake itself.

Just go to a sanction area and recover hp with resting after getting used to the giant hhp ticks with Signet, its damn painful..

But the icing is what makes the cake good in the first place (usually). Cake without Icing sucks balls!
