Random Question Thread VII: I Find Your Lack of Research Disturbing

[Hakamaru]

By default all spellcast rules are AND so,

<if spell="refresh" NotBuffActive="Composure">

Will fire if you are casting refresh AND composure is down.

You can change the mode to OR by adding:

<if mode="OR" Skill="EnfeeblingMagic" Spell="Cure*">
For example would fire if I cast enfeebling or a cure spell.

But I don't know how to check for both Protect and Shell are up in 1 line (although I am sure there must be a way).

I don't think there's any restriction limiting you to checking a single condition only once.

<if BuffActive="Protect" BuffActive="Shell">
             Meat of the rule here
</if>

[Deimos]

<if (BuffActive="Shell") && (BuffActive="Protect")>
</if>

I think at least.

EDIT: maybe even throw some more () just to make sure so ((BuffActive="Shell") && (BuffActive="Protect")).

This definitely isn't going to work. As far as I've been able to figure out, there's no way to do this, you have to do the nested rules like Argettio showed.

I don't think there's any restriction limiting you to checking a single condition only once.

There is, it doesn't like it.

<if (BuffActive="Dark Arts") OR (BuffActive="Addendum: Black")>
<action type="Equip" When="idle" Set="Dark" />
</if>
<elseif (BuffActive="Light Arts") OR (BuffActive="Addendum: White")>
<action type="Equip" When="idle" Set="Light" />
</elseif>

And this worked for me when I was leveling SCH. Can probably just replace the OR with AND.

Can Jump double attack during Footwork? If so, how much TP would it yield?

[Deimos]

<if (BuffActive="Dark Arts") OR (BuffActive="Addendum: Black")>
<action type="Equip" When="idle" Set="Dark" />
</if>
<elseif (BuffActive="Light Arts") OR (BuffActive="Addendum: White")>
<action type="Equip" When="idle" Set="Light" />
</elseif>

And this worked for me when I was leveling SCH. Can probably just replace the OR with AND.

There's no way that worked, that's not valid XML. Maybe it was like this?

<if advanced='(BuffActive="Dark Arts") OR (BuffActive="Addendum: Black")'>

If that does work though, that's interesting, I thought that you had to compare against variables inside advanced rules, I didn't know that you could use the standard attribute names.

[JigglyJam]

I just copied and pasted what I had in my xml file.

It doesn't work without the parentheses though. As for why it works I don't know except that it just did. Probably due to the way spellcast interprets the if tag.

Are 10 M. Silverpieces a good trade for Cursed Subligar -1 or should I ask for more?

[Fottiti]

Are 10 M. Silverpieces a good trade for Cursed Subligar -1 or should I ask for more?

If you're getting the Silverpieces then its the fucking deal of the century, I can't tell if you're just showing off or are actually too stupid to have worked it out.

[Counterfeit]

Well, I was bazaaring subligar for 22.5m. 10 M silvers would be like 17.5m, I'm losing out on 5m? Am I overpricing subligar?

[BerenTebogo]

Yes.

[Kaeko]

Getting owned by that CS in ASA where you get stalled if you have windower on. So I log out and try to log back in normally, and the game won't even load. After that new Teen Rating shows up and it goes from PoL to FFXI, it stalls and goes DirectX error or something. But everything works fine if I log through windower...

Any ideas?

[Byrthnoth]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure 10-12mil for Subby -1 is more standard. You're getting a solid deal.

[Asmoranomar]

pop time on scylla?

[Aero]

Has there been any testing to formally figure out if R.Acc works just like melee acc? Does 400 Racc have the same hit rate as 400 acc? If not; is the only way to test through 1000's of /ra's at the same distance on a particular level mob?

[FailureMidgard]

Can anyone think of a legitimate reason for me to keep my Osode that I may care about?

Arguments for selling:
-Kaiten doesn't use it.
-Rarely use Y/G/K on merit-level stuff, only use it regularly on high defense mobs where Osode isn't ideal.
-Nin? lol?
-Brd? lol?
-Mnk? lol?

Planning on leveling RNG? SAM/DNC NIN/DNC waltz macro. Without RNG leveled better off with the gil/inv space imo.

Does SAM not cap ACC on WSs when fighting HNMs? What beats Osode for SAM?

[Tsuko_Asura]

Got me. Perhaps using Domaru+1 for STP purposes?

[FailureMidgard]

Does SAM not cap ACC on WSs when fighting HNMs? What beats Osode for SAM?

You mean attack? No, Gekko still won't cap attack without a decent # of buffs on HNMs, and even when you don't cap attack Marches are still more total damage than Minuets, so you'd need 2+ buffers.

Though looking over numbers, I'm thinking in Ein/etc if I have Berserk and Chaos Roll, I should be attack capping Kaiten? So it may have situational use yet...
