Randomer Question Thread

think it's all random, i've gotten ash pole on veteran WW GP item before..

The old pdif graph had crits at max cratio as 2.6-3.0, so that's perfectly consistent with seeing crits less than 3.0 now.

If capped cratio pdif is 1.9-2.7 now, perhaps cratio caps at 2.25 now rather than 2? But those are just adding 0.3 to the old caps, which wouldn't fit with the 1-1.05x theory; it ought to be 1.9-2.835.

The 1-1.05x theory definitely applies to pet damage, which was previously always 4.0 pDIF on level 0 mobs, and is now 4-4.2 pDIF.

Maybe this should get a separate topic so it doesn't fill up Randomer...

I'd like to see a sample size with 30 Crits in each condition (SA with just any non-brave grip, SA with Brave, normal Crit with Brave), a max damage determined and replicated, and a posted base damage value (ideally high with capped fSTR).

Then I'd like to see the same conditions on Lesser Colibri (no atk food or Berserk). It would be wise to pick a lower damage weapon (like Fortitude Axe) for the Colibri so that you can fight the same bird for longer and cap fSTR easier.

It might take 3 hours* to do these tests, but once they were done we'd know for sure if Brave was a piece of shit or not.

69+61 Str, 639 + Attack, Dmg 94 Byakko's. 351 Crit Pole Grip.
Same everything all the way even buffs too. 359 Crit Brave Grip.

my Steel tests were like 1824 and 1869, 300%, full buffs, zerk warcry, SA.

I'm thinking 3% unless it does something where it doesn't break pDif cap, and I was already up there.

2hr 300% WS, it's gonna add 50~60 Dmg, probably the best thing for the slot for that situation.

Still not sure about the rest.

Gotta see if it's a larger boost when you aren't capped on pDif.

When Entering Einherjar does the timer begin from the moment the lamp is traded or from when the Lamp lead enters the area?

[amentis]

Moment the lamp is traded, iirc.

It's cyclical. As this tool shows:

http://titanictus.com/tools/guild/

each rank cycles through the various levels, in order, from Amateur up to itself. For example, "Apprentice" items cycle daily as Amateur > Recruit > Initiate > Novice > Apprentice and the loop back around to Amateur. The site knows from which levels the items will be pulled for which ranks on a given day, and there's a set list of items within each level. It'll give you the list of all possible items for tomorrow, but unfortunately that link only seems to appear if enough data has been submitted to make the tool display today's items. And even then there's no way to list it all, just tomorrow's.

Obviously Elrohir got the data from somewhere, and it's all in the tool, so you may want to ask him.

Edit: by "you" I actually meant Suiram, in case that was unclear.

Do the enhancements on Stone Mufflers and Stone Gorget stack? It's unlikely that anyone who posts here currently owns both of these items, but I thought I'd ask just in case.

I have a few taru friends with paladin leveled, but I don't ever seem to see tarus pld tanking in endgame scenarios. I (a hume) was messing around with some friends on pld and wound up in a healing position (we didn't have [or need] much other healing), and it got me to wondering about pld/sch main healing. It would not be in a merit situation; there has to be an alternative source of Haste at least, but otherwise it would be a remarkably durable healer. I mention the taru aspect because I'm not sure it would work without the sizably larger MP pool of a taru. It's just an idle thought, but I'd appreciate some feedback, it could make for a novelty tactic for tarus who want to use paladin for stuff.

I don't remember where I've read it but yes, it was proven that wearing both gives you a 410 dmg Stoneskin.

umm. could a 75war throw east wind and hit byakko ?

Could a bear fart in the woods and produce a perfect holographic image of the Mona Lisa giving Sarah Palin oral sex which fades away instantly?



I'd say someone, somewhere, maybe, might have heard of someone who thinks they tried it.

Myself, I'd land full or shield break on the kitty and let someone else peg it. (forget which break element byakko ignores)

There's always a chance (yes, that was the correct wind)

Though if you're not just doing it for shits and giggles, I'd try to get a NIN or RNG with capped throwing >_>

[Amok]

Since you're probably bringing a THF for TH, let the person with highest throwing try right after Feint lands.

your img is requesting a password on access. might want to fix that.

Pucks in Den of Rancor pop DC to T.

Just wanted to say thanks, these capped my shield out rather quickly, much better than the crabs.

Yeah, fixed.

Time to merit that aggressive aim!

[Spekkio]

how exactly does killing the mini bosses in valkurm affect CC? i know that CC can still use those TP moves after the mini boss is killed, but what exactly changes? i'd heard conjecture that it required the boss to have TP to use them, but that seems somewhat far fetched considering that with 20 some odd melee beating the hell out of it, it will have TP again within a second or two of using its last TP move.

How many people can enter the Tyger islet? 18?

[Callisto]

I believe as many as who have the salt, but I haven't seen anything showing anyone trying to bring in some absurd number of people.

[Deband]

I can see us having over 18.. so hopefully it is as many as have the salt
