Randomer Question Thread

[Ragnus]

Zoning out of Sandy(S) today the npc said watch out or you might end up over an orc campfire. Well he said something to that extent but that got me thinking about something. Does any stories about beastmen have them eating adventures? I don't recall anything about yago's or quavac going around eating people but I could be mistaken.

I really don't think Beastmen eat adventurers. I just took that as the Elvaan being overly ignorant to everything but themselves as usual. IIRC from the Sandy missions, the orcs are not the really the savages the Elvaan make them out to be.

Whats good headgear for a 60ish ninja?

I think I was still using Emp. Hairpin at that level. Not sure if its the best anymore though.

Voyager Sallet I suppose.

I just switched to playing on the PC version recently, and I'm new to windower macros. I noticed that when I use another macro, it doesn't interrupt any windower macro that's currently running. Is there a command that I can use that will stop all macros that are currently running before they reach the end?

EDIT: Nevermind, I found my answer!

So the common knowledge is that under Apoc the Tier 2 Scythes would be Perdu/Tred/Molion Set which should all parse about the same. So how would Triton's compare to those scythes?

Well, the solution I found doesn't work exaclty the way I had originally planned. My intention was to create a macro for auto shot on RNG, that I would be able to interrupt at any time. The way I did this was with the following macros:

// rng/autoshot.txt
alias runme exec rng/autoshot.txt;
alias stopme alias runme /;
input /equip ammo "Fang Arrow";
wait 1;
input /shoot <t>;
wait 7;
runme;

// rng/stopautoshot.txt
input \/\/stopme

Run the first macro to begin auto shot. Run the second macro to stop it at any time.

Is ApRadar busted for anyone else? I've loaded it three times and its not showing my position on the map.

[Callisto]

Happened to me last update too, try delete -> reinstall first.

[isladar]

Why do I post anywhere else on BG since you've answered ALL MY GODDAMN QUESTIONS TODAY.

[Callisto]

Seriously, should stay where you belong.


Question: Can Celerity/Alacrity break the 50% recast cap like it does for casting time?

[Mosh]

Does anyone know where the Stuffed Chocobo furnishing comes from yet? I searched the .dat thread and the forum itself (yay for 500 results with hits such as the RL pic thread) but to no avail. I know it was just added but I haven't even seen a mention of it.

Thanks in advance.

If you switch nations, do you keep prior conquest points from the previous nation? Like with outposts.

Example being, I want to switch to Windy to do missions, but currently have 240k CP with Sandy. If I switch to Windy, I'm pretty sure it resets to 0 (I think?), but if I switch back later to Sandy will I have my original CP?

Just wondering if anyone's tried, don't see any definitive answer and don't want to lose 240k but don't need to spend them at the moment if they'll save.

Yes, your windy CP will be 0. Once you switch back to Sandy, you'll have your old CP back.

When the Mythic WS NPC says "I See a marked increase" what's the range of completetion on that? 1%-50%? or..?

[Raen Ryong]

Another BLU question! I hear people use SACA (Sneak Attack Chain Affinity)... what does Sneak Attack add to the damage, save a guaranteed (first) (only?) hit on (multihit) spells?

There doesn't appear to be a pdif in the damage formulae at all, so critical hit means nothing to it and it's not THF main so there is no DEX bonus.

Why is /thf so popular? Does it add something beyond the first (only?) guaranteed hit with regards to SACA? Just wondering if I'm missing something.

What is the command to exclude on-screen windower information from screenshots?

[nekura]

What is the command to exclude on-screen windower information from screenshots?

hide, so for example: bind sysrq screenshot jpg hide

[Redshift]

There is a damage bonus associated with SA on physical blue spells. I couldn't tell you how it's accounted for though. If you try CA Death Scissors 60+ with and without SA, it will be like day and night; consistently over 1k with SA.

[Ophannus]

Sorry to reiterate but I reall want to know, When the Mythic WS NPC says "I See a marked increase" what's the range of completetion on that? He says that after 1 WS so i guess the minimum would be 1% but what's the max range before he changes his message to the "about to burst forth,keep it up!"? Im guessing 'marked increase' is 1%-50% but i could be wrong?

can goblin chips be sent through the DB?

[DIABEETUS]

Me and some friends are looking to lowman tier2 jailers, and I've read that the Wall of Justice trick still works fine and is viable. Unfortunately after hours of searching, I can't find any details as to which wall it is exactly that this works on, and how the actual strategy works. Can anyone offer any info, maybe an exact pos or diagram?
