Random Question Thread V: But does it 6-hit

[Dramafinderftw]

How much skill/INT is needed to land Bind on Seiryu?

[magicjack]

Anyone know of a link or site with defense and vitality for hnm's (kirin, khimaira, tiamat, etc)?

[lolwut]

Was there ever definitive testing done on Para II vs Para potency? I did a search, but the stuff I found was unfinished.

[requim]

For the blu question vs snabnock you could just take all the meleeing jobs attempts to solo that rely on running away from quadrastrike, so you would primarily use head butt to keep shadows up for his normal hits and run away on qaudra.

Also, random question, has anyone tried to FOV augment a Fay weapon?

The "random" board, /b/, follows the design of Futaba Channel's Nijiura board. It was the first board created, and is by far 4chan's most popular board, with 30% of site traffic.[23][24] Gawker.com's Nick Douglas summarizes /b/ as a board where "people try to shock, entertain, and coax free porn from each other."[2] Certain post numbers are sought after with a large amount of posting taking place to "GET" them. A "GET" occurs when a post's number ends in a special number, such as 12345678, 22222222, or every millionth post.[25] A sign of 4chan's scaling, according to moot, was when GETs lost meaning due to the high post rate resulting in a GET occurring every few weeks. Moot estimated /b/'s post rate in July 2008 to be 150,000–200,000 posts per day.[26]

/b/ has a "no rules" policy, except for bans on certain illegal content, such as child pornography, invasions of other websites, and under-18 viewing, all of which are inherited from site-wide rules. The "no invasions" rule was added in late 2006, after /b/ users spent most of the summer "invading" Habbo Hotel. The "no rules" policy also applies to actions of administrator and moderator, which means that users may be banned at any time, for any reason, including no reason at all.[27] Due partially to its anonymous nature, board moderation is not always successful—indeed, the site's anti-child pornography rule is a subject of jokes on /b/.[13] moot told The New York Times, in a discussion on the moderation of /b/, that "the power lies in the community to dictate its own standards" and that site staff simply provided a framework.[28]

The humor of /b/'s many users, who refer to themselves as "/b/tards",[28][29] is often incomprehensible to newcomers and outsiders, and is characterized by intricate inside jokes and black comedy.[29] Users often refer to each other, and much of the outside world, as "fags".[13] They are often referred to by outsiders as trolls, who regularly act with the intention of accruing "lulz": a corruption of "LOL" used to denote amusement at another's expense.[28][30] Douglas said of the board, "reading /b/ will melt your brain", and cited Encyclopedia Dramatica's definition of /b/ as "the asshole of the Internet".[2] Matthias Schwartz of The New York Times likened /b/ to a "a high-school bathroom stall, or an obscene telephone party line",[28] while Baltimore City Paper wrote that "in the high school of the Internet, /b/ is the kid with a collection of butterfly knives and a locker full of porn."[13] Wired describes /b/ as "notorious".[29]

/v/ is video games forums according to a friend! I don't really do 4chan myself...

Holy hell, it has its own history! Thanks for the clarification; I was reading some post in the gaming section and had no idea what someone was saying.

Just finished SMN burning BLU and I need some information on how to set spells for max damage and such... I just need info on cannonball in particular

I posted a Cannonball magic set in another Randomest question thread. Try searching CB/Cannonball/Triumphant Roar/Wolfknight (Since he asked me about the set) + Yugl. I'll post an equipment set for CB in a moment.

Edit: Here is the set I would strive for: http://www.ffxiah.com/item_sets.php?id=128347

[Miroku_Asura]

Already did a search of the thread, but didn't find what I was looking for, so excuse the minor repetition of a previous topic that has been beaten into the ground.

So I'm starting to merit my Rdm(waits for the groans), and I'm stuck on what I should merit. I was thinking something like this:

3/3 Convert
4/4 Ice
3/3 Wind

1/1 Dia
4/4 Slow
4/4 Para
1/1 Phalanx

Phalanx is just nice to have the option, but I was thinking about 2/2 on Dia for zergs, but I could just cast it again. Thoughts?

[Deader2818]

I did 5/5 Wind, 3/5 Ice and 2/3 Slow.

Convert just seems like a waste because you usually stack it with DS and im hardly in a position where im riding my convert timer.

For group 2 I did 5/5 Para, 2/5 Phalanx 2/5 Slow 1/5 Dia III

[Andradi]

5/5 vert, always.

Ice is generally agreed as the handiest other one to do, wind is far less important/useful.

Group 2 looks spiffy.

[Deader2818]

I dunno, Wind covers Gravity and Silence so works for me. Full durations and all that jazz.

Really depends on play style.

If you have relic hat and dalmy/morrigan, I cant see why you would need to ride convert.

If you are doing 4/5 or 5/5 Para II with 3/5 ice should have enough to make it land. I've never noticed problems with it.

[Kidnoftle]

5/5 convert
Can do a mixture of ice/wind but... meh just stick to ice.

Your group two looks good except 1 into phaII is pretty weak iirc, maybe it would be better to just toss it into slow or para.

[Dooom]

Only 1 merit in phalanx2 is a waste imo. It won't last long or reduce damage by all that much. It's sexy at 5/5, but at just 1 or 2... I'd use those spaces on something else.

[Despain]

Can bind be broken in the same fashion as shadow bind? On a few occasions I've been told "I'm gonna be mad if you break bind" and I was like huh?

idk how Shadowbind works (always break when someone hits it from my experience), but I know Bind only breaks after a certain amount of damage is dealt... but :/ if that's how Shadowbind works, then I'm just blind.

[Deader2818]

Shadowbind always seems to break with any bit of damage that ive seen.

[drwaffles]

How the hell do people not know that any direct damage has a chance to break Bind? We're in 2009... The chance for Bind to be broken increases greatly the higher a mob's level is.

[Yugl]

If I recall correctly, Shadowbind breaks whenever damage is dealt. Bind on the other hand, MAY break once damage is dealt (As waffles pointed out).

[Miroku_Asura]

Only 1 merit in phalanx2 is a waste imo. It won't last long or reduce damage by all that much. It's sexy at 5/5, but at just 1 or 2... I'd use those spaces on something else.

Main reason behind it was to make tanks stop bitching, while being able to have potent enfeebs.

[Yubar]

What is that one plugin that lets you go through people?

[Andradi]

iirc that's something to do with GMtool and is nothing to do with windower, rather, it's a bot feature.

[blue]

Is Thalassocrat etchhable?

[Pendulum]

but I know Bind only breaks after a certain amount of damage is dealt.

What? Bind doesn't have a set HP.
