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

[Byrthnoth]

Thanks for the advice. I'm just hoping with Odin opening back up I'm able to get a few offers. The only reason I posted 25m was because a few months ago when I asked someone said 15m was the going rate, I figured +10m would be smart, but maybe they were wrong.

They were totally wrong. My friend used to get offers of 120mil for his.

Continued discussion from old page: Where are the "other" Colibri camps in East Ron [S]? I know of one to the far East, but I have yet to hear of others.

You can camp around I-10 and pull (mostly) Colibri depending on your kill speed. There's also another camp at H-9, but there are only a handful of Colibri spawns with the rest being Ladybugs.

There are two other camps along the east wall according to Campsitarus, but I haven't tried either of those so can't really comment on them.

I forgot about that site. Thanks for the link and comments.

I'm looking for anyone who can convert the default /tell chime into a .wav file, or knows of any programs that I can do it with? If someone can do it, the file is in ..\sound\win\se\se000\se000040.spw

Looking to put it on my iPhone as a text tone.

From previous thread, still no answer :/

I have one on my phone, though it's .mp3, not like it's hard to convert to .wav though. Unfortunately my PC took a shit on me and this is my fiance's laptop, I can't install random stuffs so you'll have to convert to .wav youurself. Sorry, but at least this is something.

It's my text message notice, btw. :D

edit: it opened a player instead of letting it link, so I has it as simple text. Linkification, go!

I'm currently experiencing a weird issue and I'm hoping someone here can help. Last night I completed "The Forbidden Path" quest for Windurst, I got the cs, received and INT potion as the reward and it shows as complete in my quest log. Today I went to start "Sins of the Mothers" but the npc won't give me the quest. Otherwiki lists no pre-requisites other than completing that first quest, but I thought maybe I had to progress in WoTG missions before I was offered the quest. Well, the problem there is that my missions log shows "Crossroads of Time" as the currently active mission but when I look up the info it just says I have to complete "The Forbidden Path" which I've already done... I've tried zoning, logging out and back in, I've talked to a bunch of random npc's, etc. Can't figure out what is preventing me from progressing.

So I've done some google searching, looked around at alla and searched through here but I'm coming up with nothing and no one else seems to have experienced this problem. Surely I can't be the only one, has anyone else experienced this issue and/or does anyone have any ideas or a solution?

edit: Even though otherwiki lists no pre-requisites for "Sins of the Mothers", it would appear that you have to complete "Fate in Haze" to unlock the quest. At least, that's what the page for "Fate in Haze" says. Guess I got some missions to do!

Maybe Crab Sushi for melee, squid for ranger? Crab is like +12%, Rice Dumpling is like +5 acc.

You can do this: Open your sound-card menu and click "Recording" (or similar) to record "Stereo Mix" (or similar, the option that let's you record all sounds going through the sound-card), get a free sound editing software, record the signal from FFXI (when you use the chime sound) stop the recording and save it as .WAV
Different sound-cards names their signals and routing possibilities differently.
I can do this for you if you want.

Wow, holy shit. Well that settles that then lol. Thank you.

Two questions:

1.) Did SE specifically mention BLM getting meteor or is that just speculation? If so is there a link?

2.) Has anyone bought/sold an Aureole recently? If so what did you buy/sell it for? I've had a bazaar comment up on ffxiah.com for awhile at 25m but with Odin closed up until very soon I didn't have any messages at all. Wondering if I'm way low or there's just none for sale.

Thanks!

Everyone+Dog will be soloing AV come June, so I'll do you a favour and offer you 100k gil for it, cash, right now.

Looking to get sum Enkidu Mittens for my pup. Are either Gotoh Zha or Nhun soloable by kite chi blast (mnk) or kite nuking (pup)?

Nhun most likely is. Can kite around the rock with Hermes and just treat it like any chi'd mob. Gotoh would be some extreme faggotry cause it'd take you a year and a half to do so.

Does anyone else a find the Enemy Critical Hit rate description a little ambiguous?

"Adjust enemies' critical hit rate by 1 percent." leaves me wondering if it's reducing it or raising it, and whether it's 4% of their current critical hit rate (like 5% to 4.8%) or 4% like it is for us (5% to 1%).

Also, does anyone know what the floored monster critical hit rate is? With Van Pendant, some AGI, and 4 merits it might be possible to reduce it to 0% >.>;

Edit: Also, Creamsoda, what WS hands do you use on DNC?

[Doink]

Does server transfer reset your campaign progress?

Would like to be ready for a promotion when new ranks come out, but good bye hades.

would say that if a crit+merit ups our rate from 10->11%, then for mob it most likely be 10->9%

and i'd expect it is impossible to take it to 0% with that neck piece, since if i'm at 95% eva rate, throwing on an ohat isn't going to get me 100%

[Byrthnoth]

Well, if you're at 95% eva rate then you've already broken the hit rate floor so why not the crit hit rate floor? =p

I think hume rse, well it's in my macro. I can't remember the last time I used my dnc. I think it was for an assault and my purpose was to help feed tp and cure, let the mob live as long as possible. I don't have suppa or dagger merits, so my dnc is pretty much literally never used.

THANK YOU!

[Fiarlia]

THANK YOU!

Oh hay, almost forgot, I have a few other random FFringtones if you'd like. I have the FFXIchocobo theme, which I set to a specific FFXIfriend's ringtone for when they call, and I have various Fanfare's from a few other FF's, I think VI, IX and XII. May have more stuff, but that's all I recall at the moment as far as FFgoes. Oh wait, I think I have a partial Kefka theme, it's my reminder for Dynamis I think. Also have some Disgaea and maybe Chrono Trigger ringtones if you're interested. Everything was custom made by me. If you, or anyone else, is interested I can post which ones I actually have and upload them for peoples. If I can fix my PC, or get a new one, I may start taking requests since it's easy with the programs I use.

You're welcome, btw.

Chary repop is 8 hours after death, and can spawn up to 16 hours after death, correct? So it's an 8 hours camp, with 16.5 (depending on PH kills of course) minute ints?

Is there a safe place to afk in the room? Because I dont think I see any kill messages on the ramp.

[Khajit]

does anyone else have autotranslate all turn into japanese text(same word) at random until you restart?

It's a true lottery, technically speaking it can go forever or something.
