Random Question Thread V: But does it 6-hit

[Despain]

Pucks sound good. Are you /DNC? I don't see how you'd have a hard time surviving against Pucks.

If I leave server A to be server B then move back to server A ... must I change my name? Same name @ A and B before moving back to A. Thanks.

[Onorgul]

You'd only have to change your name if an active character on server A has claimed it.

Yup, /dnc. It's the Ts I'm having trouble with, there's DC and EM versions of them there too, but there were DC/EM Korrigans in Boyahda too so I might have well just stuck with them.

EMs I can solo fine with almost full health at all times...but when it gets to Ts everything just turns to shit before I have to run away.

Maybe it's a gear problem?

I know its not going to answer your question, but I think you might be forgetting about the evasion and defense bonus from signet. I know evasion and defense are both pretty lol stats, but from my experience its a pretty noticeable boost. I used to solo level my npc in boyahda a lot, and I could definitely notice the difference between EM and T crabs (or if I forgot to get signet before I came out). Unfortunately, I don't have a good answer to your question, just making an observation.

Which Campaign Ops is it where I go to a beastmen controlled fort and set a bomb?

If you're alone, stick to EM in Signet areas. As its been said, the survivability increase is pretty drastic.

Just recently swapped from ethereal to hollow and now I can't think of a 2nd pld earring for my \war and \rdm set, 1st being buckler. anything at all?

[Thorny]

I was under the impression it's -50% PDT, not a chunk of defense, though I could be wrong.

That would make much more sense

Cassie if you can handle the max mp loss, bloodbead if you can't.

[Meat]

Galka, cant spare any mp.

I thought about maybe the Dragon Earring, since I only \war and rdm for dyna, and i guess i can start \nin for ixion

Get Ethereal back or quit PLD, etc

[Wolfknight]

Ethereal is really overrated for pld since it's worse than a hollow for /nin with shadows up, I only have one cause of drg/mage.

If you can't operate without Ethereal, quit PLD.

I'm having a really hard time deciding on what ASA pants/Augments to get.

My jobs are PLD, WAR, NIN, RDM but I almost never use NIN. I'm almost always on PLD or WAR.

I'm thinking about HP Enmity and -4%PDT for a PDT setup on PLD and WAR.

I have Wlegs, I have Homam, I use Darksteel Subligar +1 for PDT so this would be a minor improvement.

I've thought about Enmity/Cure Potency for PLD, and I have no idea if anything would be good for RDM. (RDM is 70 but I plan to use it quite a bit when I finish it)

Loq/Buckler? Brutal/Buck? Brut/Loq >.>?

for /rdm and /war those wouldn't be horrible combinations D

For RDM you could go Cure pot and -PDT if you plan on tanking and/or soloing a lot but I'd say the Enmity/PDT for PLD is more useful. MAcc 4 MAB 4 is another cookie cutter option for RDM but may not be terribly useful.

[Thorny]

haste pants are nice for rdm if your shell isn't shitting seraweels enough for you to ding into them
