If relics get "occasionally attack xxx" times I will spend the rest of my life going around the world to personally drink up all the bawwww tears from aegis upgraders.

well aegis could occasionally shield bash 2-3 times...gjallarhorn however..

[Plow]

blocking for 2-3x dmg or occasionally singing songs at 2-3x strength (and having a log notification so you can adjust accordingly) would be spiffy... but yeah, doubt that's happening lol

2-4 excal swing would be so broken lol, almost sure to proc additional damage every attack round. D:

No it's only around 8-12% on high level mobs from what we've tested. Still even just having a joytoy version of excal would be ridiculously amazing. It's hard to know if SE would actually do something that powerful. On the other hand if every weapon can start to be enhanced like that then it's not really quite as huge.

I know at least one RDM that will be taking MND ring to pair with that new MND belt.

I'd wager that the INT ring would help RDM more than the MND ring unless you only ever play RDM in ally / party situations.

INT ring would help on nukes and blind only since I use Omega/Balrahn's for bind/grav.
MND ring would help on Slow2 for Suzaku solo/duo, Cactrot Solo. I slow2 all LaVaule/Beadeaux NM's when I solo/duo.

No items introduced with that look, so it's cutscene only.

How disappointing. I was so excited by the potential to look even more fucking ridiculous than I already do!

[Acorn]

8 hour recast on chocobo beret is nice. I was expecting 72 hours or something sucky

[Yabby]

Even if G-horn doesn't get anything i won't bitch... its still broken lol. Only thing that could piss me off is if they gave someone a ballad +2 horn/upgrade and didn't up a G-horns +s

But if there's a version for Taru and Mithra now...perhaps we'll see the two other Spitewardens, eh?!

Edit: I just want another pimp hat, really.

Have to look at the % slow added to your total set vs. overall damage added to nuke / mp<-> damage ratio for the entire fights too I think. If the % added doesn't actually change your ability to keep shadows up but the int over the course of a long solo saves you a full nuke or two worth of mp then the actual overall safety value of the mods leans towards the int.

Either way it's such a small increase and which would be better for rdm is entirely situational so it comes down to personal preference.

I don't slow 2 some mobs like Coinbiter or Draketrader because the mp spent overall on slowing it for the whole fight shaves like upwards of 10 minutes off the fight if you just spend the mp nuking and use slow 1 (since neither mob are really dangerous at all anyways)

Quadav SCNM definitely slow2 everything.

Patriarch Protector's arrow -> Combat Caster's quiver

Nuf said.

[Shinsei]

Krabkatoa Steamer
Orcus Trophy Hunter
Blobdingnag Burster
Verthandi Ensnarer
Ruthven Entomber
Yilbegan Hideflayer

Lovely titles.

Obviously Ruthven is the Vampire NM, and Krab, well (der), but anyone found out which one of these names belongs to that big juicy Wyrm, Pixie and the antlion? Dying to know!

[PEIPld]

Orcus = Antlion

[grantlogan]

Any clues for the Rank 4 & 5 prizes yet?

I doubt many people care though, since the 0.5 millisecond trivia contest was lame anyways.

I mean seriously, what's the harm in giving away a few hundred caps to people who wanted them? (i.e. first 100 people to answer question correctly)

[lilpepe]

I guess defeating Shadow Lord [S] doesnt give a title he is not cool enough maybe.
