Random Question Thread VIII: Wait, There's a Sticky?

[Khajit]

Not yet but it's making me think that the servers that keep their name's are gonna have to worry about AH stuff.

The "World Merge" is just the completion of World Transfers on the entire populace of the smaller server. It's literally no different. That's why the demands made of the people on the world that's going to be shut down are identical to those listed by the World Transfer service.

If you're on a world that another server is being merged into, nothing is going to change for you, functionality-wise. The only people who need to worry about removing things from the AH are those going through a World Transfer. None of their listings are going to carry over since they'll all be taken down or deleted.

SE never specified which servers have to take stuff off of AH. What i was getting at was the fact that if my server is now "unknown" then could it be possible that there is now a 3rd server which will take on the designated name of my server post transfer? That could also be the reason for world transfers currently being shut down as any attempts to transfer into one of the merging servers will result in a character being send to server#3. Again, SE never actually said that it's the bitch server that only has to take item from AH as of the last time i checked.
I'm merely saying that my theory if slightly correct would mean i should take stuff off of AH.
It's the most lgocal theory i can think of for why servers that i've seen which are getting merged are now categorized as unknown.

What is the average duration of silence on mamool at the north camp of mamool ja staging point?

I ask because I've merited there quite frequently and have never had trouble silencing the mamool on rdm before. Today I could only get silence to stick for about 5 seconds over the course of water, wind, and iceday. This was true for blm, rdm, and nins. I noticed our bards were also having trouble landing elegy, although I didn't check to see if their gear was capable of doing so. Not much has changed with my gear between having long duration silence and short duration silence (swapped from morrigan's cuffs to bricta's cuffs) and so I'm curious to know if I had really bad luck today or what has happened? x.X

Servers merged? I'm getting a few <unknown> servers on my friends list.

What I hear is that <unknown> means that the server is closed. Allegedly people from Bahamut and Odin have been displaying this for months. The servers that are collapsing into a bigger one are not subject to this afaik

May be wrong! This is what was explained to me today when I asked around

Someone on my list is on Lakshimi, but has the <unknown> status. He may have an account on Bahamut/Odin I am unaware of, but I doubt it considering the amount of time those servers have been closed.

[Byrthnoth]

Naw, people show <unknown> when they're changing zones/logging in right now I think.

Well then someone has been zoning/logging out for over two hours.

Can anyone point me to examples of 'ideal' tp, Slug, and QD sets for Cor?

I understand the concepts, but I never really paid any attention to ranged dd in general before I picked up this job, and I want ideas of what to aim for.

I'm at 65 atm, and want to start prepping for 75 without overlooking anything.

cor/drg

m.kris/1% haste shield/Martial gun
Turban/PCC/AT/Love torque/Hollow Earring/Wyvern earring
Acc body/dusk gloves/rajas/toreadors/cuch mantle/
Swift/v.belt/Skadi legs/Dusk feet

Ah nice, I already have a wyvern earring, but I hadn't even considered /drg as a sub. Gotta start working on Skadi legs.

Any QD Slug suggestions?

[Aurara]

for QD

Staff/Strap/Cor gun+1
AF1+1/Uggy/Moldy/Novio
ACP body/Rovers gloves/OMega/Breeze Ring
Commanders cape/Obi/Nimu's tights/AF1 feet

[lolwut]

Are Nimue's consistantly better than Denali? I have both, but wasn't sure if the accuracy from the 3 agi would outweigh the +1 MAB since I've never had to use QD on anything remotely resistant.

[Aurara]

i dont have denali, but i dont notice the m.acc loss since if im soloing/in blm pt im using rdm roll with blm roll

Someone on my list is on Lakshimi, but has the <unknown> status. He may have an account on Bahamut/Odin I am unaware of, but I doubt it considering the amount of time those servers have been closed.

As part of preparation for the World Merge, the following services have been suspended on 16 worlds that are designated as Source Worlds and Destination Worlds. These services are scheduled to be reinstated upon the completion of the World Merge.

[Affected Services]
- Creating new characters on designated worlds
- Issuing Gold World Pass on designated worlds

[Affected Worlds]
Sylph/Valefor/Leviathan/Quetzalcoatl/Pandemonium
Garuda/Cerberus/Kujata/Bismarck/Seraph/Lakshmi
Asura/Midgardsormr/Fairy/Remora/Hades

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Lakshmi is closed, just like Bahamut and Odin. Therefore, they appear as <unknown>. Any server that is absorbing another server will display <unknown>, as will Bahamut and Odin. That is what I said c'mon read!

where is a god place for BLU to solo at 75?


got access to all areas except Sea

The Mire, vs. Imps, if you have all your spells and don't mind the cost of echo drops.

[Rocl]

Sidhe in Grauberg are OK. I never soloed there extensively, but they are pretty comparable to Imps in terms of defense/behaviour (casting, low def etc). A little weaker, and less exp, pulls are kind of long too. But eh, it's different than imps.

things I have learned: Fighting VT imps one on one is good exp.


Having a second imp aggro you why fighting said imp is deadly.

I'll try that later. thank you.

You know how you link your POL ID with your Xbox 360 ID if you play on that platform? Well, what happens if you change your Xbox gamertag? Is your POL ID linked just to your actual Xbox account or is the gamertag the only link?
