Random Question Thread X: Fucking 99 Level Cap, How Does it Work?

[ZhiGaruda]

Was hoping for something more along the lines of a copy and paste of somebodies windower macro >.>

yes im lazy but will research it if necessary

Windower macros won't help you in this situation. It all comes down to what YOU have, or are willing to work to get.

Bloodbead gorget
Bloodbead ring
Bomb Queen Ring
(RSE?) waist piece -> Jungle sash, etc
Gigant mantle
Walahra turban

etc etc etc

Also take into consideration how much MP you end up with in this set. Obviously if you are low on MP it will not matter, but you wouldn't want to be sitting at 1000 MP -> swap to Devotion tank -> end up with 500 MP.

Raging rush unless you are attack buffed to shit fighting something where you don't have a reasonable expectation of critting but still have good Acc.

I am just noting that it isn't super amazing.

AH ok~ was a bit confused because most ppl say to use RR

[Martinius]

how much acc does a sam need for polearm in salvage? i don't have any polearm merits or cuchulain's mantle, but do have usukane head, hands and feet (tho in my merit pt build, i only keep usu feet, otherwise using hachiman kote for 5 hit and turban).

also assume not /drg. i'd rather build for without, then remove rings or body with.

i'm guessing it'd be fine with pizza +1, but numbers would be appreciated.

thanks!

Honestly, you won't generally see much different results from KJ. Both of them tend to generate relatively similar overall results. KJ, in my experience, tends to be a little more consistent, but not peak as high (outside of 2hr). What I usually do, unless I'm fighting something with a particularly high crit chance (like birds), is use KJ when 'zerk is up, and RR when it's down, but YMMV.

KJ is also generally the best choice for use with 2hr.

Lolmelee rdm tp set:

Blau Dolch|Joyuese|X|Tiphia Sting
Turban|PCC|Suppanomi|Brutal
Goliard Body|Dusk|Snipers|Angels(+6 acc)
Forager's|Swift|ASA (3 haste/movement)|Dusk +1

8/8 Dagger and Sword merits, no rajas since I only have mage jobs. Typically use for messing around solo, usually nothing serious (tier 1 vnm, dio/despot farming, heraldic imp merits) but on V.T. - I.T. mobs.

So to improve acc, Scorpion Harness +1 best bet or is there another trade I should make?

Cuch Mantle seems like it'd be the next best upgrade/value. +7 acc rings too but cost/improvement is huge, especially for a screw around setup. Any gear I'm not thinking about?

Cuchu's Mantle, Acc+7 Rings, MKE 3% Haste/10 Acc hat would all be better upgrades than Goliard -> SH+1. (Ancient Torque, Black Tathlum, etc) But yeah, they cost significant money or opportunity, while SH+1 is cheap these days. Also, you're probably going to be better off going Joyeuse/Justice and spamming Death Blossom.

[Tsuko_Asura]

You seem to actually care about your build, so the first thing I would do is pick up either a Justice Sword or an Antea, then switch to Death Blossom instead of Evisceration. Fairly certain Evisceration a fair amount better than Death Blossom, but OAT sword damage is really hard to compete with.

[Tsuko_Asura]

Fuck you Byr -_-

[Doink]

Yeah, I prefer Joy/Justice, but I keep burning through all my virtue stones. So BD/joy is what I use when i'm out of stones.

[Tsuko_Asura]

Antea would make a good lazy-man's Justice

[Doink]

I just finished my Teiwaz. I think I'll go farm organs instead of starting that magian bull shit again.

But yeah, my death blossom build usually out does my Evisceration build on anything that isn't piercing weak.

[TacoTaru]

Don't know shit about the Op, but would Plucking Wings be possible to 4man using a holder 2BLM, BRD and a job to hold the boss and just manaburning it? Never done any of these so I don't know how hard they are; just trying to maximize profits from it.

Let's assume full Marduk/Goliard/Nashira

What pieces of Artifact should be upgraded for a perfect WHM other than hands+1 for hexa strike?

[Tyramut]

Has anyone camped Okyupete for magian trials here?

I did a while ago, and i'm positive back then its wiki page said the last Diatryma on the first group of 4 Diatryma's on widescan was the PH.

Now it's saying the first of the 4 is the PH, lol. I could either be wrong or there's some wiki terrorism going on here!

Halp, really can't be arsed to kill all of these fuckers.

Trick question, perfect whms dont melee.

It's the first one. When it first came out, I was trying to track them and at some point lost track of the 1st one. I knew it was either the first or the last, and guessed wrong when I updated the wiki

It was only like that for maybe a day though, so you had some pretty bad luck looking at it on that day. Sorry for the trouble.

[Francisco]

Is there anything in MMM that can be soloed by a 75 MNK, that's worth soloing - be it for XP or otherwise?

*Exclude anything that involves Chi Blast + Kiting; don't consider that worthwhile for most things...

What are the best FoV camps/regimens for 37-40 THF, NIN and WAR; and also 35-40 DNC?

[Darkmagi]

Trick question, perfect whms dont melee.

Meleeing on whm can work just fine with proper boon usage. Obviously only in situations that allow it though. (dynamis, ein, meripo, limbus, etc) Body would probably be the best upgrade for a whm enfeeb build otherwise.

Somewhere between a week and 3 months.
