Random Question Thread V: But does it 6-hit

[Byrthnoth]

I remember there was some way to make a "ringer" Dark Elemental in Pankration that would basically just spam Stun and Drain. What was it? >.>

In regards to above, yeah it does. Also, Ult always gives 4 STR/4DEX on ffxiah.

It's an outdated unofficial plugin, it won't ever get updated in all likelihood. Load it on startup and the first login will count, or zone once after loading it and it'll count as well. For some reason it doesn't translate player IDs to player names if you load it without zoning.

Negative - it will. You have to go beyond 50' from the players, basically far enough for them to de-populate, and then come back.

Of course, loading it in your mog house will prevent any of this, zoning, etc, but normally in a meripo I will just load it, run away from the PT, and run back, problem solved.

Which route to i take to run around the tunnel and what all mobs do I grab for pulling a smn burn?

[Eanae]

About how much does a fully dynamis run sponsored relic go for now a days without buying any currency from bazaars? Excluding last 30 100's of course.

Also, I just did an experimental pull to see if I could live or if I'd die. (since I don't have rdm or /rdm) and i can live just fine, but my friends said something about I'd have to rest to keep hate? How long would I have to rest for? cause i'll be forced up after they hit me once anyways.

The /rest is just to keep aggro, not to actually regen health. Edit: (so not long at all, just have to go through the motions).

[Cream Soda]

So i could just repeat rest when they keep knocking me up for hate then? I'm here on dnc/sam and rly between meditate no foot rise and the tp they feed me i'm always at 300 tp so i just keep curing myself w/ wha tthey feed me and never rly have to worry about dying.

What are the max ranges on Chi blast and Charm? I thought they were 10' and 15', but I'm not sure anymore.

It can vary depending on average currency drops. Our shell's spreadsheets catalogs average profits but unfortunately not average currency drops, so all I can give you is an eyeball average from our Bank spreadsheet.

If you assume you get 200 per run, it'll take you 75 runs to get 15,000 currencies (18,000+/-300 for a relic minus the last 30 100's.). That equals out to 37.5 million gil in Timeless Hourglasses.

If you have better luck, and get 300 average per run, you'll get 15,000 in only 50 runs, and it'll cost you 25 million gil.

This is extremely oversimplified because it also assumes that you will get exactly enough of each type you need, whereas more than likely you'll have to dump excess of some to buy more of another etc etc.

Realistically, I don't think you would have to spend much more than 40 million in practice.

Divide your group and do lowman Sandy, Bastok, Jeuno at the same time (not sure if Windy is easily lowmannable while getting decent profits). Should be getting quite a lot of currency that way. At the cost of AF2 you'll get relics much faster. Not that you should, LS-funding relics is yucky unless you can reliably promise everyone in your shell a relic in a decent timespan.

For those who think splitting up into small groups for Dyna is blasphemic: remember when people used to do Limbus with alliances? Actually they still do, we were 4-manning a Temenos and got angry /tells from a certain "HNMLS" because we were unfair. They wanted to 17-man the same Temenos. The day netted us 3 Ultima chips (like 14 people total). Efficiency, hu!

chi blast is definitely 15' (maybe 15.5, i've noticed that when grabbing a mob in salvage, but that may be relative to a mob's size)

War/Sam question:

Assuming a Perdu and Sword strap, 10 gear stp during tp, 6 during ws. How many hits of rr/kj do I need to land to keep a 6 hit? How many with 6 stp during tp and ws?

[Byrthnoth]

With 10/6, you need to land one additional hit.
With 6/6, you need to land both additional hits and double attack once.
With 7/6, you'd just need to land both additional hits.

[Alastaire]

Assuming no Hecatomb, what are the best hands/feet for Rampage on BST? I was thinking either Skadi or Rutters for boots (no Aurum either) but I'm completely stumped on hand equip.

Quick repost of this question as it was glazed over.

[Thalandor46]

Does critical hit rate gear have any effect on ranged attacks?

[Onorgul]

If it isn't attached to a weapon (Ifrit's Bow is a possible exception), I believe critical hit rate bonuses apply to all weapons equipped, up to and including ranged weapons. I'm pretty sure that every place you can get critical hit rate increases, though, is better served by another item (Kirin's Osode instead of Pahluwan Khazagand, Snapshot/R.Atk/R.Acc/Store TP instead of Crit +3 on Mirke, etc.).

anyone have updated dat'd maps that show like field manuals and what not? the one on windower site the link is broken

[Aurara]

should i upgrade cor af feet body or head first?

[jimbobsonofgod]

should i upgrade cor af feet body or head first?

What alternative hats and shoes do you have for cor ?

If you have skadi feet and the only decent hat you have for cor is AF then do hat first, if you have shitty gear for both slots then i think feet are the best upgrade from NQ so go with that one.

Should I sell off my Macuahuitl+1?

I've got joytoy so wondering if I should fulltime that and spam atonement or does not having Macuahuitl+1 make me gimp in certain situations?
