You can cancel your id at anytime during the month and still use that character until the next billing cycle.

Can you get the Amber key daily? Iv been killing the gobs for the key items and just getting the Viridian keys cus they wont pop the gob NMs anymore. Or am i outta luck on getting a brocade obi with a +pet stat because according the ffxi wiki they have different rewards.

[Silenka]

Reactivated content IDs are not pro rated so the best time to open is at the start of the month after they bill. The best time to cancel is at the end of the month before they do registration server maintenance.

Thanks, that is what I figured but wanted to make sure, since I'm not very familiar with billing cycles >.>;

That's interesting to know, thanks. :D

If you're able to find somehow who for some reason never "activated" their Tidal Talisman can you buy it from them and still enter registration codes or however it worked? I saw one sold on ebay and it made me curious.

edit: nm just found this on wiki
Redemption codes must be entered in PlayOnline – and in-game Tidal Talismans must be claimed from Festive Moogles – by February 28th, 2009.

Concerning the "Enhances 'Barrage' effect" on Hunter's Bracers +1:

For the extra shot to fire off, do you need to have them equipped:

1) When you use Barrage (JA) only
2) When you use Barrage (fire) only
3) Both when you use the JA and when you fire

I've been searching and asking people, and have been unable to find a definitive answer.

[Issac]

Not sure if they have to be on when you use the JA but they have to be on when you shoot.

I have the keychain activated on my account, how do I activate the satchel?

Edit: Nevermind, it just took a bit to turn on.

Navigating POL is like a maze. Where is this option: The "File Repair" feature, which repairs corrupted files found through "File Check", will be added. I don't see File Check anywhere

File repair is when you first start up Playonline Viewer, there should be tabs on the left side going Member List>Information>Guest Login>Add Members and then Check Files. click this to automatically check and repair your files.

Thank you good sir!

[Maaglin]

The hardest about the goddam file check is noticing that you have to click the little arrows to pull up the file fix for ffxi and not just the playonline viewer. Rage.

i know you found it but is it in the sticky that it might take time for it to turn on, your not the 1st to ask this and if its not in izzys post. maybe if he happens to see this he can edit it so less people do not keep asking ~_~ yaya sp lol

If a linkshell is broken by leader doing /breakshell,

-can you remake the shell by the same name?
-can you remake the shell by the same name while people still hold the broken linkpearl or sack?
-can you instantaneously remake the shell by the same name, or is there a waiting period before you can try again?

Any information appreciated
Thanks in advance

[arshesney]

Yes, as soon as the linkpearl is broken the name is free to get assigned to another. Any delay you might experience is due to lag.

Are Gothic Gauntlets good enough to idle in on PLD, or should I stick do dusk?

Taru, L62 RSE gloves. If there's something else w/o -movement speed, I would encourage it over dusk.

Edit: and w/ +HP

Sarameya question:

On otherwiki it says he resets hate after end of howl phase. Is this on all of them or just below 25%?

He 'forgets' hate after them, not resets, but yes it is all of them. If your tanks save a spell timer and act on him immediately after howl phase, he won't even turn.

If you toss an extra Mannequin you have purchased, can you buy it back from the NPC in Mhaura?
