Couple questions on some znm that I'm unsure of since the rage patch

Looking to try to use my nuhn popper which I've had for several months now. Probably would be going with a base of pld, thf, rdm, whm and then a couple blm or rng for main dmg. Might only be able to fill in two spots of the latter (thanks to all my friends who left the server, quit, or left the server then quit!) and wondering if rage would be a factor.

Also looking at gears, since that's another one that I have access to and I think others are probably interested in, so I'm wondering if that'd be enough or would have issues with rage. Probably with roughly the same group, though there is fair enough flexibility in jobs.

How much Store TP do I need for a 504 GAxe? (42 axe)

How much Store TP do I need for a 504 GAxe? (42 axe)

22 (/SAM, Rajas, Brutal, Chiv or Ecphoria) for 6 hits from 0, but 21 is enough for 5 hits after RR or KJ if you hit either the second or third swing.

21, so /SAM you need 6 in gear if you're landing the initial and one extra hit in RR/KJ. For SC you can ws in Rajas/Brutal/Snow, but you have to keep 1 more Store TP in for the rest of the cycle.

/NIN you need to make up the 15 that /SAM is giving you, most likely with Aurum Cuirass, Carbonara, and some combination of Chivalrous Chain, Attila's Earring, and Ecphoria Ring.

I don't have Chiv or Ecphoria, but I have Askar Body, should I use that at all or just /SAM Haub/Rajas/Brutal?

Don't know if it fits your need, but hope it helps.

Haub/Rajas/Brutal and count on landing at least 2 RR hit OR, depending on what your second ring is I'd buy an Ecphoria if it's a NQ Sniper or Woodsman, that's what I did until I got my Sniper's+1.

How do I open a .dat? This is similiar to what Emiko/Brandson do with the de/buff icons. What do I need to use/do to open a multy image .dat and extract/replace the images within.

Can you give me a possible HP count on those statues you 1 shot?

Thanks

Doing Dynamis-Sandy now.

992 wouldn't one-shot the statues, left them at 1% . 1011 freeze II would.

Earthday, but my ugly pendant procc'ed on the 1011.

It seems they have exactly 1000 hp. Hope this helps! (This is orc statues, btw).

I need a Yigit Gomlek and I am planning to spam Periqia Assaults for points. Which mission do you guys recommend? Looking for one that is relatively easy to do(with few people, if possible). I am Captain rank.

Saving Private Ryaff is really, REALLY easy. If you go as sam/something (I would sub whm, and wear staff for earth shaker), you can pretty much kill the chigoes instantly, so no problems doing it.

Takes like 5 minutes to do with 3 people.

I haven't leveled /rdm yet for my PLD, so forgive me for not knowing much on this subject....I was looking over the PLD AF+1 items and noticed the helm had a large amount of mind and the legs had some enhancing magic, which got me wondering. I believe mages make themselves a stoneskin build? Do PLDs as well, or would it be too much of an inventory killer?

Edit: I've already upgraded boots and body (Threw body out when I obtained valor) I'm just curious if it would be worth it upgrading them for when I do /rdm. Don't really have anything else to spend coins on and I have both items in storage from a while back.

Operation: Snake Eye not bad if u can get it down, I did static'd sam/thf + nin/war + rdm/whm for long time on it to get AP there.

Whether or not it rages will probably depend on how well you guys do at not getting hit with leeching current when it enters into that spam mode. When it rages it makes it harder to finish it off more than anything, but you can reset the rage by keeping DoT on it and having everyone who has hate zoning.

I don't really bother with SS in most cases just because it's annoying to recast while getting hit and not worth the trouble, but against something like JoL it might be worth it. You can get a pretty decent SS set though between AF+1 head/legs, MND rings(I have Tamas/Omega from RDM), and W.Body or maybe blueberry body if you have one. I would do the legs before the head, since those will affect Phalanx/Enspells/Barspells as well.

Building bridges is what I did
pretty easy and 3 manable, could probably solo if you wanted to.
and a solid 1200 points for less then 15 mins.
