Random Question Thread XI: You're Wrong

[Onorgul]

What's a good amount to offer per person for abyssea gnole? gonna have to recruit some ppl, it seems.

Would it not be simpler to just wait for someone to list it on the auction house, then?

If it was me, I'd probably start at ~100k a person and be willing to go up to around 200k or so per. I'm a cheap bastard, though.

Ah. Also, as for mnk vs standard DD, it obviously depends on buffs, but if the 2h can Hasso, and has dnc+cor+brd, I don't think mnk wins on dmg output as cleanly still....but survivability is an obvious upside. Drop the dnc and cor, and ya, mnk is great. Oh, and if you do do it, I'm being told 1/12 is probably a safe relic proc rate.

Didn't really want to get into it here, but meh. Pick a 2h dd and tp/ws sets and i'll draw up a comparison.. I can't honestly believe any of them would beat MNK/WAR(which is obviously what you do if you're comparing to fulltime hasso, since it takes less damage than the hassoed DD still).

I figure there's not much market for mnk stuff especially w/ all the other money drops there. Don't even know any non mnks who fight that NM most go in there for exp or the shit like thew bomblet

How do I make it that absoloutely nothing overlays onto my screenshots when I take a picture with Windower? I did this way back years ago and can't remember how to configure it.

also

How can I tell Windower to put all my Screenshots into one folder as opposed to creating sub folders for every zone I am in.

Please be specific, I am can be incredibly slow sometimes .

Thanks!

//Load plugins
load ssorganizer

//Bind keys
bind sysrq screenshot jpg hide
wait 5


//Plugin configurations
sso dirformat
sso fileformat {%Earth.Year}{%Earth.Month}{%Earth.Day}_{%Earth.Hour}{%Earth.Minute}{%Earth.Second}_{%Zone}

These settings. You should still include your other binds, plugin loads, and plugin configurations of course(init.txt).

How do I resize Windower so it doesnt take up the whole screen?

[Thorny]

edit windower.ini and change your x/y resolution

[Deader2818]

Hmm, still doesnt work, still coming up full screen.

[Thorny]

what's your desktop resolution(if you know, if not i'll explain how to find it)?

paste your whole windower.ini file here

Byrnie+1 is still the top tier for Tachi: Kaiten, correct? I'm wondering with the level cap increase and the probability of new gear being released if I should sell it and use something similar for now. Lots of higher priced items crashed this update.

Though at the moment the only two pieces of gear that I could see being used other than Byrnie+1 are Haubergeon+1 and Askar Korazin.

It was suggested that I use a sync for Ranguemont Pass mobs if possible to do trial weapons. What level would I need to be above the mob to make them con EP (Highest I can be)? For example, Ooze is ~LV9 and the other slime mob is ~28-30.

What the hell happened to the 10th Vana'diel Census?

The Adventurer's Appreciation Campaign made mention of it:

Adventurer Footprints

Information on adventurer exploits broken down on a world-by-world basis will be made available for your viewing pleasure via PlayOnline from Monday, May 17 at 1:00a.m. (PDT).

http://www.playonline.com/pcd/topics...10/detail.html

At least, it sounds like this would be the census for this year. It corresponds to the times they were released last year. I haven't been able to fine it anywhere online. Going to log in a second and see if it's only available in the PoL viewer.

E: Well, partly right and partly wrong. Sure enough, it can only be accessed through PoL (no wonder everyone missed it, if they cared to begin with). But it isn't the census. All it lists are the average number of parties joined, chat frequency, enemies defeated, and times KO'd, as well as the "top 3 scores" in these categories, for each server. Very underwhelming.

E2:

"Final Fantasy XI has been in service for eight years as of May 16th, 2010!...

..."These past four years have been filled with memories -- growing together with so many new friends, testing teamwork in fierce battles, and sharing warm conversations, laughter, and tears."

Those first four years were a bitch, though. Everyone tries to forget about them.

I don't know if this is taboo to ask, if it is apologies and delete/ignore. I see a lot of other posts talking about such programs and I know quite a lot use them here so..

Anyway I'm looking to buy a program that gives the features of ffxiapp, not really intrested in botting since I don't camp that stuff but I would like to be able to use stuff tools like scanzone, navigator, curebot, Ja0wait etc

I know the most common one is gonna be Wizbot but everything I have heard about him makes me not wanna put money in his pocket, I will if I have to cause I can't find anything else but I would rather not. Are there any other relaible programs that offer the stuff I mentioned? I saw xiclaim but the whole payment system seems rather stupid.

Any other programs or any forums/places I can go to get some info on them?

[Thorny]

xiclaim or wizbot unless you have friends in high places

also, don't think this is the place so these posts will probably get deleted anyway

[machiko]

ok thx, guess ill try wizbot then.

Good easy prey bird type mobs for a magian trial and where that's not colibri?

[Fottiti]

Marsh Murre in Mire. Dire bats in KRT and Den of Rancor. Grauberg Hippos are another posibility since there is often people there for trials who you can team up with for faster kills.

[SteveMc]

Where abouts are the bats in KRT, not really familiar with the zone?
