Randomer Question Thread

You can, but there is a short activation delay when you can't do anything.

Is it impossible to rank up any faster than once every 5 days? I was planning to work towards a set of Iron Ram Hose, but is it impossible for me to get these any sooner than 60 days from now?

You can't get evaluated more often than every 5 days so yes this is the case. Starting campaign rank ups from scratch is a pain in the neck, it'll take 45 days to get the first piece of Iron Ram gear (lowest Emblem rank) assuming you're doing enough campaign within each 5-day period to rank up asap.



Now my question, I'm Bastokan and this week Bastok is in 1st place on Asura with Windurst in 2nd and San D'Oria in 3rd. I'm trying to buy a Mercenary's Knife from Windurstian guards, according to otherwiki it should be available when Windurst is in 2nd place or higher. However, it's not showing up in the list. I went through the item lists on the NPC and none of the items that should be available when Windurst is in 2nd are listed to me. Are the items available when nation is in 2nd+ place restricted to citizens only even when your nation outranks the nation you want to buy from? Am I glitched or is it supposed to be like this and I just missed the small print somewhere on wiki?

[Thorny]

it's supposed to be like that, not entirely sure if it's on wiki but it's the case with all the ra/ex 2nd+ items too

Is there a Mirke Wardecors .dat mod that lets me see my character's gloves again?

[Kirschy]

No hard cap, just display cap.

Is there any proof this is true? I've heard it before, but I've yet to see any proof. I'm interested in seeing how this was determined.

[BRP]

100% for the short period it is active.

Twicer + Berserk + Warcry + Mighty Strikes + Sturmwind = I accidentally the whole monstar!

I just found this out. Crazy sexy.

[Falaras]

For tanking Sarameya as a Samurai about how much Barfire gear do you need? Also Berserk or leave it alone for tanking Sarameya?

Although it probably appeared somewhere before, I remember all the testing in that big YGK thread a bit ago said that during the 1 hit WSs that have hidden +attack attributes (such as YGK, SC, SS, etc.) that your attack can be beyond 999. I don't know if you can get it beyond the cap at any other time, though.

1. Is rattling egg droprate off ash lizards really awful or am i unlucky? went about 1/150 on it the other day. If i was just unlucky i'd like to farm it again, if it's normally that bad, then meh.

2. Is there a place where people have posted their windower macros, as i'm too lazy to make macros for some jobs and would rather just get premade ones and buy/switch gear.

[Ansems]

Just making sure.. Ixion pops after Maintenance right?

[Drace]

Is there an updated version of Altana Viewer or something similar? Haven't used it in years and the latest version I found doesn't have armor past 2006 >_<

I actually just went looking for this yesterday (need to update my horribly-outdated gear in my signature).

Downloads for both AltanaView and Modelviewer are here, pick what you prefer:
Model Viewer/Altana Viewer/EWH viewer/FFXITOOL UPDATE 8/4/09 - Killing Ifrit

[Drace]

Awesome, thanks!

[Eldelphia]

This is probably a really dumb question, but I'm just getting started in Campaign, so I want to make sure I'm not missing something.

Nope you're stuck with every 5 days.

[Shinryuu]

First question in a while for me, heh. How much AGI do Mamool Ja have (merit-level). What about Wivre? I'd like to see if I can get a high dDEX in WS.

[mdkuser]

77 agi for lurker according to wiki you wont get any decent crits on them. 67 for MMJ mages it says... doesnt work with my parsed crit rate.

By the way, does anyone have the exact evasion values and VIT of all those MMJs ( wiki only has MMJ whm drg and thf).

[Shinryuu]

127 DEX in WS is easy for me :3 thanks. I need to tweak my gear a bit more to reach that in TP, Adaberk, Iota Ring and Ancient Torque would work.

Will headbutt proc on PM's if you enter on thunder day?

It did on earthsday run yesterday, so I don't think thunder will stop, though to note earthsday did stop my poison for some reason from disservement.

[Xera]

It will not proc.
