What's this thing do? Latents/Triggers

[Fogo]

doesn't this question belong in the whats better thread?

[Hogie]

If you wear a Jelly Ring and an Avalon Breastplate the Damage Taken will be negated!

Think about that now....

+5% DMG Taken
= +5% Physical +5% Magic

+ Jelly Ring -5% Physical +5% Magic
= 0% Physical +10% Magic

+ Avalon Breastplate - 5% Magic
= 0% Physical +5% Magic still

I have one:

Barbarian Mittens, anything?

Any info on where Airy Buckler comes from?

[Valyana]

Would be easy to test one part of that y's scythe: just need a drk/smn to see if a dark spirit/fenrir's costs go down by 2 as it says.

I just checked this, and it does indeed reduce Fenrir's MP drain from 5 to 3 per tick.

Cracking Shells Campaign Op, only available when Bastok controls all Campaign areas including Beadeaux [S].

From what I seen on the Homam Corraza is that it's a 25% boost to base triple attack. SO if you're a Thief with merits, it should do a 2.5% increase, but with an added floor of 1% for other jobs that can use it. Granted that's all observational, and pretty hard to test being that there's pretty minimal Triple Attack enhancement gear. It seems to coincide with earlier observations on a range of TA bonus, like an unmerited thief seeing only a ~1.5% - 2% increase.

OK, well, just to be complete if people want to debate/test... book says Elemental Staves give spells of the matching element:

HQ Staves give

• Damage +15%
• Accuracy +30%
• Perp Cost -3
• Opposite spells -15%, -30%, +3

Also, it's funny to notice the thing has all these typos, and not just the usual English mistakes.

The 30% seems to be just a typo for MACC +30, which seems very plausible and is in accordance with what I might have estimated. It's kind of sad though that Laevateinn doesn't provide even close to the MACC of a 500k staff, pre-aftermath. "Enhances Elemental Seal effect" better be good...

Any Info on Sonic Belt (+1) ? :D

Added effect: Look like a douchebag.

[Cyprias]

Me too. If it was possible.

Set Summary

* Defense: 119
* STR +19
* Accuracy +5
* Attack +55
* Damage Taken +50%
* Enhances Effect of "Absorb" Spells
* Adds Refresh effect

What's a normal hit? For me, from a normal mob. It's 150-200 damage. For things like Fafnir, it's 300-400.

So let's say I suddently lost half my brain and decided to wear the full set + this necklace. That's +55% Damage taken. Unless somehow a level 71 DRK has ~300 HP I don't think this will ever happen on a normal hit. Ever.

Plus iirc none of the other pieces stack and it's only +duration, not potency. So if you're wearing the fu- Oh god nevermind I give up, this argument is dumb.

tl;dr: That's not going to happen. Even if I know you were joking.

An unweakened LBC with this stuff on would probably one shot a drk :D

SE, crazy as they are, doesn't have a history of making rare/ex items that you can consume which are then magically useful down the road, IIRC.

However, WoTG seems to be fond of rare/ex consumables. At least Mihgo Mithkabob was evident, this and Tincture are still big questions as to what they do.

To me, the reason is evident: WoTG-type content can't reward you in "gil" really, so they reward you in items that just so happen to be NPC-able for quest like gil rewards.

This may be true for Mihgo Mithkabob and Withered Rolanberry (still...what does it do when you consume it?), but Tincture seems to be different. Tincture is stackable and can be sold in AH. Yet, it has no apparent stat boost when you consume it. Maybe it's an ingredient fo some future synth...

Elmer I have a question kinda related to this, on the jp site you visit, isnt there one that have done testing for the new food ?

I know SE said they'll had more mage food but atm it doesnt seems to be the case. Also the new food we got on the last update dont really have stat yet.

Since before it was Mysterytour that release food effect etc.. I wonder if you didnt saw some of the new food effect on jp site you visit ?

Patroclus's Helm?
Arcana Killer slightly? Or something more ... Hpemde affinity!

How about the rings from gusgen mines?
Malflash, Maldust, Malflood, Malflame, Malgust, Malfrost

[Arcaneo]

If that were true (the enhancement being a %) wouldn't Aegis users see a lot more damage added using Fenian Ring? As far as I'd heard that ring adds 30-50 Aegis or not. +900% dmg would make the ring add 270-450 with Aegis...

That would depend on when the ring bonus is added.
(shield damage x shield mod) + (ring effect) would be 30-50 aegis or not.
(shield damage + ring effect) x (shield mod) would be what you described.

Obviously this book cant be THAT big lol, can you scan it into a zip for us?
