Nyzul Weapon Information

Serious?... So easy compared to a lot of other things. Especially if you are captain.

Getting 5 other people to spend over a month, when you factor in losing floors and farming tokens for 50-100, working on a weaponskill for just me is not "easy", especially when you consider that everyone who ever leveled a melee job ever would be trying to raise a disc.

[Suiram]

You've also had 17 months already to do it.

[Priran]

That might be less completely removed from being a valid point if assault tags were only used for Nyzul, and everyone knew ahead of time that the relic weapons and WS from Nyzul could be separately quested.

[Weeks]

Not really. Go do nyzul, it's not hard. It's easier than limbus, and getting limbus gear has alienated nobody. Nobody but the lazy.

You're talking to Priran. You know, the guy for whom getting a Walahra Turban was too much work.

[Priran]

what are you even talking about? I had a Walahra Turban like 2 weeks after people figured out how to get it.


additionally, no he is not talking to me

[Therin]

You've also had 17 months already to do it.

Yeah. It takes 4-5 weeks. Less if you use all 7 tags per week. It takes about 20 minutes per run on average, it's something like three hours of commitment per week which is less than Dynamis by half. So in the time that it takes you to do Dynamis for 2-3 weeks you could have a floor 100 disc.

That's easy, no matter how you slice it.

*EDIT* Lol, two weeks. <_> I had one about 10 minutes after people figured out how to get it.

[Priran]

yeah well apparently the kind of faggot that would brag about his "legit" hauteclaire is the same kind of faggot that farms 200,000 exp in one month


I think at that point I was selling gold coins for a killing anyway? I made like 8 million

It's not bragging, why would I brag about spending a year and a half of my life staring at a pair of trees and a boggy hilltop? And yeah, I loved Mamool staging point back when no one knew how to get there. ^0^ 200,000 is only like 10 hours of EXP anyway, hardly difficult to do over the span of a few weeks, and I did it on PLD/NIN.

Selling those must've been nice though, I'm sure we all wish we had done that instead.

[Charismatic]

God, the planets must be in some kind of crazy alignment... either that or Priran is on a roll tonight.

I was cruising through the new npc motions during maintenance today and these caught my eye.

Basically just a standing up stance and.. examining weapons I guess? There's one for each weapon type. All for Hume M only. Even if half of them look like the same stance just with a different weapon equipped, each one is actually slightly different for each (staff/polearm etc). What's more interesting is that it fits really comfortably on the Nyzul relics. I'm guessing it's part of a CS for the upgrade, probably for Balrahn.. Admiring his weapons before he hands it over to you.. or rapes you with it?

Really looking forward to this now, I'm at Floor 96 with Burning fists ready. Just need the ToAU kings before I wipe my disc and start collecting alexandrites

Doesn't Abquhbah examine the weapons when you turn them in? That would explain why those motions are Hume Male only.

[VZX]

I doubt you will have to get the 1st stage, that goes against the entire point of "everyone can quest it."

Why wouldn't the mods matter?

fStr is always going to apply
Assuming you're over 2.0 pDif, Crits are going to hit 3.0~3.25
fTP for each hit after the first is 1.0
So, if you do the math for ZERO ws mods with a Dmg 90 weapon landing 4 crits (nevermind if you got two doubles, or used homam body and got a triple) it's going to be pretty rediculous.

ANY Ws mod is just going to ramp up the sexy factor.

/cue to vorpal blade vs jin.
jin actually has bigger base damage when WSing due to 30% DEX mod.
I believe this is why I see jin hitting harder than my vorpal regardless how good my vorpal setup is.

reprefuckinzent thats why toau owned, solo'ing 7k/hr, exping 12k/hr in a busy zone and making a ridiculous amount of money and then waiting another few weeks for coins to drop 65% and buy for the turban

[Weeks]

I'm talking about that ever-so-amusing post about low level leeches in Besieged while you and your fellow blue light special MNKs got stuck outside. You made excuses for all your gear, but your excuse about the O-Hat was that Turban wasn't a big enough upgrade to spend the time or gil on (This coming late enough that you not having a Turban led to some amusement).

Dated early June 2006.

I was apparently leveling BLU at the time and, as stated, had several million gil on hand. Trollan gaems I guess? Was over 2 years ago.

I'm no mathematician, but mid June is not 2 weeks after late April, nor is some-date-past-June-15th "early" June.

[Priran]

So 5 weeks instead of 2 like I said then? Close enough for me, considering it was over two years ago. I had the turban before I posted that thread, though. I don't see how this came "late enough that you not having a Turban led to some amusement" considering it A. wasn't that late and B. no one commented on my gear save Alleya.

also it's kind of funny that you remember a thread made before you even joined.

[Therin]

Waiting 5 weeks to get a Turban is pretty sad no matter how you slice it.

[Waef]

So wait, how exactly does 1 specific person not getting their turban the second it was released affect nyzul relics?

[Priran]

this is a flattering derail

QQ all you want, I made bank by selling until the gold coins dropped to like 20k each. I barely played MNK while I was leveling BLU anyway.
