Shadow Lord BCNM Unlocked

[Lonoha]

So we might find out if the Ops opens up if all areas are taken but ownership is shared between nations.

On Sylph, Windy's gonna get Beaucedine and Sandy the two castles and Xarc.
So yes, it seems doable to get all 4 in a single week. Sandy and Windy are also winning back Eldieme and Garlaige.

And now what everyone wants to know. Is the ring rechargable?

Fiat Lux is up on Siren. All Northlands zones were taken at once over the course of the past day. Sandy took Glacier and Xarc, while Windy took Zvahl Baileys and Keep. So it's possible for a combination of the nations to share the areas. All 3 nations own all their "main" zones as well.

The question at this point is if Bastok can do the op and what zones they own.

[Maurauc]

Now I know OtherWiki is usually a load of crap, I just saw this pop up a few hours ago on the Allied Ring page.

DO NOT TAKE OFF UNTIL TIMER RUNS OUT,because it wont work unless equipped At all times!!

Load of shit/Am I a gullible moron, or is there truth?
Also, rechargable?

[shepardG]

Unlocked on Slyph!!! BRING THE MUTHAFUCKIN RUCUS!!!

[Foldypaws]

Question, I think I saw this answered to the affirmative previously in the thread, but now I can't find it.

If say, Sandy owns the throne room, can members of Windy and Bastok buy the ring from a Sandy notes NPC?


Edit: also, unlocked on Lakshmi.

Yes, but the price follows the same 50% increase as all other items. You'll pay 22,500 notes instead of 15,000.

Yep. Windy person here, went to Sandy and purchased it for 22500 notes, follows the 1.5x cost. No difference other than that, though.

[NeoForte]

News from Alex is...we have no Northernland Zones this week...

Man we suck lol I thought they would have started the whole thing over again and retaken the zones but nope. Guess one round of Fiat Lux was enough for us heh

Open on leviathan.

[Damane]

well gilgamesh is struggling hardcore, we got beaucidine and lost it again, not gonna speak about the other northland zones, not to mention La vaule etc.

[LinktheDeme]

Can you only buy the ring if you have the rank medal of altana or is the ring a lower rank item

[Talus]

It's under medals, I'm guessing starlight medal to get it.

I'm allied with Windurst [S] and got the ring from NPC for 22,500 AN like other people have noted. On Valefor, San d'Oria [S] has control of the Throne Room.

I'm also curious about the wiki entry saying you need to keep the ring on for EXP effect. I'd call shenanigans but I haven't tested it yet.

It's bull, I use the ring, then switch to my 17 blm to lvl it and kept the effect. Also, can only grab once for the week since i used all charges for the week and tossed it. Not sure if rechargeable, but didn't get similar message trying to recharge emp band.

[Dakota]

Yes the message about having to keep it equipped is completely false.

[ronin sparthos]

Has anyone confirmed if you can just oneshot the shadows spawned with a -ga spell?

[Nightmarelord]

I'm sorry, you are retarded. I'll help you out though.

YOUR ONE PARSE DOESN'T MEAN SHIT. I can outparse people (with a Hagun) with 0 songs when they have 4. Is that "case and point" for you that bards are bugged and actually lower your damage output? No? Oh, well, that sucks.

I admit, my math is not 100% accurate or conclusive. Sadly though, you are too incompetent to even realize where the accuracy issues are.
1. Defense doesn't matter, as was already shown. Try again. And if you're seriously talking about hitting for 0, then a: get DD that use food, and b: use common sense. CAUSE IT'S FUCKING OBVIOUS THAT HITTING 8 TIMES FASTER FOR 0 IS WORSE THAN HITTING FOR 1 SLOWER. As a side note, you may as well reconsider gear then too. OKote>Dusk. LvL41 Mask>Aces or Turban. Do I need to list more stupid bullshit for you? In fact, you'd be better off making all these trades and keeping your double marches, 'cause once you're hitting for 1s, attack is suddenly worth nothing again.
2. Level correction DOES matter. Too bad you didn't know this. I could redo the math, but it'd be a bit silly seeing as:
3. I assumed ZERO PERCENT HASTE ON GEAR on my first comparison and TWELVE PERCENT HASTE ON GEAR on my second comparison:
"For this comparison, I am going to assume that any melee DD can manage at least 12% haste on their gear (Turban, Dusk Gloves, Swift Belt for non-mnk. Turban, Fuma, Purple Belt for monk)."
Do you SERIOUSLY want to use this for your minuet proof? 'cause holy fuck, the haste I left off that anyone with decent gear has makes up more than level correction (assuming you aren't hitting 8billion times per second for 0).

I assumed best case scenario all over the place for minuets, and marches still -easily- won. But you know what, we missed the real kicker:
"All of these calculations assumed that Minuet gave an equal boost to weaponskills as it did to your white damage."
Really, if you're talking about hitting for 0 and then you're using a fucking multi-hit weaponskill (noncrit), you're just an idiot and deserve to be shot. The second you start using Sam WSes, Spinning Slash, etc, haste's value skyrockets.

Go back to your bullshit parses. Go prove for me that gallant's roll does more damage than fighter's roll, because with your logic, I -could- prove it.
Minuet is seriously -never- better than March unless you're using summoner burned DD that skipped skilling up after.

eff that. i need mo att for mah kaiten.. just sayin'

Info on this subject has been pretty much detailed to death. But I uploaded a video of the BC to youtube in case anyone is interested. (since the first vid required signing up for a Japanese website and the repost turned out squished)

Won the fight WAR PLD DRG BRD WHM RDM so I am sure several setups consisting of PLD DD DD BRD WHM RDM should work well it seems. The fight took about 20 mins thanks to our RDM missing one add (no biggie though). Overall, very controlled, with no deaths aside from the sac'ing of the adds. I figure our next run will be much smoother now that we have our strategy down.


If any adds stay up, I would recommend not fighting it as the HP total is very high and the clone's DEF is just as difficult to crack. Best to wait for the depop.

Only got the Nightfall alas.
