Relic Augments

[Atomic Skull]

I currently gear DNC, WAR, BLM, RDM, BRD, BST, and SMN. I have accumulated enough R/Ex crap and macro gear that everything that I can store at the Porter Moogle for the last 5 jobs (which I use substantially less often than the first two) is stored, with the exception of W-legs. If I need it, I will whip it out. The no-confirmation-text thing on the Porter moogle is pretty goddamned glorious.

I won't use the porter moogle with anything that I can't afford to loose because I don't trust it to not have bugs. I've heard stories about slips being erased.

[NynJa]

Youre keeping gear for 10 jobs handy...10 fucking jobs? Do you really use 10 jobs? Heres an idea, stop sortinf ur inventory, anything that winds up at the top of your inventory lists and doesnt move, store it

Source of said stories? Something as big as this would have winded up on here or FFXIAH or alla by now if that was true.

this is actually a perfect solution to gear check O_O

i should do it now running out of space even for 5 main jobs ; ;

Abyssea is end,
but SE adding something in Abyssea for EXP after cap raises to LV95(June),I guess new spells from chest or something like that.
again, SE adding/fixing Abbysea FOR EXP.

next update will be March,LV cap stay at 90.
Itou(FFXI Directer)said about this year.
Itou:we are fixing old contents,and we may adding hard version.
about next update, we are adding mobs/reward in ZNM, because ppl not doin'g em.
also,adding crest BC.
I loled..who loves ZNM?...
all Sauce is:
http://kamome.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/ogame/1294903665/
it's japanese, developer interview, NO.254,259,271,278,285,
I know most of ppl can't read japanese, but ppl ask "sauce?", so I did.

No offense, but sourcing 2ch is like sourcing 4chan. Anyone can go on there and pretend to be a developer or whatever.

Except, all of the stuff you listed is pretty obvious as stuff that they would do for this update, so eh, who cares.

Maybe if you did the desired dynamis exactly after 72 hours and rode your linkshell to do events during the holiday schedule. Killing the desired mobs isn't the difficulty, it's the 72hr entrance restriction.

We do dynamis twice a week, and took 4 'rotations' off due to new content & holidays. I have been fortunate to have linkshell mates who are willing to spam dynamis zones. ATM I believe our LS is the furthest on the horn trial, and I'd only be 1/5 on the trial if I would have received credit (This isn't a brag, I really want to know if anyone is running into the same problems).

I don't want to spread rumors, but my first beau run didn't net me credit ~ so if there's an issue with the horn trial, that would be another issue.

Give it another week or two and maybe someone will have an upgraded horn/shield.

My shell just finished Ghorn tonight, Mai Ikari posted the screenies over in Completed Relics. We didn't run into any weirdness with the trial failing to credit a kill, and we only took one run off right before Christmas, running every Monday and Thursday other than that.

I'm not sure what happened to you with that first run, sucks royally because of the lockout, as you mentioned.

Out of curiosity, what was your 100coin rate looking like? We entered and did minimum farming to get to clears/Mr. Q and still ended up with something like eight or nine hundred coins before we finished.

[Asmoranomar]

Grats on horn upgrade. Originally I was looking for groups outside my shell to team up with, and maybe rotate runs with, but our ls seems to be the only one that actually does dynamis anymore. I took the high-ground and offered open invitations to anyone on diabolos with relics to come with us for upgrades, but between people's limited playing time and other ls's emo 'omgyoucantdoeventswithanotherlsorwekickyouz' attitude (really? linkshells dont even compete anymore. Awesome job dicking over your own ppl like that...), only one person has managed to keep up with us so far. Sadly, my ls seems to be pulling mutiny on the whole dynamis thing now, as only a handful of people login during dynamis nights anymore.

Without going to emo about the whole thing - it sucks. There's not much I can do to encourage people to come to dynamis anymore, so it looks like my final upgrade will be on hold for a while.

As far as coin rate - its still random. Our last run net us around 50 singles even with 2 THF's (it was pretty sad actually). AF rate is still pretty high, but like you - we only went in to kill Q.

[Darkmagi]

If you are only getting 50 singles I certainly hope that is due to just killing boss and leaving. Coin drop rates ignoring 100s have always been quite decent. Really though, you don't need an ls event to get something like this done. Just take a 3-6 people and sac pull your way to the boss for a fairly speedy exit if gil isn't a concern. I'm sure you can find some relic holders to perma dynamis with, or at least a few friends.

[Malacite]

What do 100's go for now anyways?

[Phraust]

Anyone that did Amano to 90 seeing any weird accuracy anomalies? I haven't updated my parser in a while but outside of Abyssea I'm noticing a drastic decrease in accuracy. Could be coincidence, but after seeing errors on other relics/mythics (Like Yagrush being bugged) I'm a little curious.

Taking a break probably for the rest of the week, but when I get back I'll run some tests, just wondered if anyone else noticed anything.

[Asmoranomar]

Not to sound dickish, but I thought it was quite clear that was what was done. Only, Lyall said they did the same thing and got 8 100's. I defer back to 'random'.

Your assuming people with adequate aptitude that consists more than 'I only play to have fun'. Without making it sound all bad, our linkshell is kinda heavy in those that can't spell 'BG'. Most of our skilled players, on the other hand, don't play 24/7 anymore. Trying to get enough of of them online all at the same time to coordinate a run is proving difficult. When they do come online, dynamis isn't their favorite event. I've already addressed the 'other relic holders/outside people' issue. On top of that, I really don't feel the need to 'force' anyone to come to dynamis to upgrade horn to 'songs+3', which amounts to being more of a luxury item with bragging rights than anything.

Still doesn't bar the fact I want it anyways. Like I said before - No emo. sucks.

[Sumiko]

Sorry, I mistook your post as an upset "Wah I can't finish my trials without my ls" kind of thing. My bad :X

Oh it is - Mentally, I have enough composure to see it like it is and try to use that to keep a cool head. Emotionally, I'm pissed off and willing to pin every reason possible to get what I want. Personally, I've run this linkshell for the past 2 years at almost near perfect attendance rate and I think 11 dynamis runs isn't asking a whole hell of a lot. Logically, its not worth the drama and breaking the ls over. There's your emo. I'd say more but I know well enough BG doesn't give a crap.

[Byrthnoth]

You should tell the failures to go do Dynamis - Tav and trio Dynamis - Beauc with the cool kids.

[Asmoranomar]

Isn't it usually the other way around tho? The failures are usually the ones who will faithfully go wherever, the cool kids have enough sense to spend their time on something else.

Edit: Thats right Asmo! Get angry! Take it out on the innocent ls members! Rawr!

[Byrthnoth]

Then you should have spent less time being "fair" and more time rewarding and befriending the cool kids. They're the useful ones anyway.

[Asmoranomar]

Oh you know me too well! Ain't that the truth.

Are you sure we didn't meet in some previous life?

[Darkmagi]

Yeah, what kind of bullshit ls members do you have that won't spend an hour or less on ghorn trials once or twice a week. I could see if it was a useless relic...
