New Elemental Staves

[Radec]

Went from Teiwaz > named, is some hope they'll swap to Yama's Pole/Yama's Staff/etc for the different types.

Thoughts on raptors? Dark Killshots >250 which means melee+Vidohunir (Is Omniscience Darkness?) alt has PLD BRD THF or RDM.

First thought was Uleg, PLD + BLM/WHM (SCH/???, if omni works) to deal with para breath, as Terrigan is too crowded and Kuftal would require too much moving/sneaking. Meri_S raptors I believe are too spread out but haven't looked around there myself.

Mamool ja raptor pet maybe at bird camp.

There's almost always at least 1-2 reasonable raptor camps open between cape/valley. Don't forget all the raptors around the goblins to the north a bit.

At this point I'd settle for the DMG and ACC staves to have a different name so we could at least macro them properly.

Personally, I'm betting they'll make the final upgradeable one have a different name, higher DMG/Delay/whatever, and be Rare.

[Evane]

Is it possible to change their names in their dats files to make it possible to macro them? I mean for example if you have 2 Indra's Staves, could you re-name/re-model/change its dats to lets say thunder staff to be able to macro it?

[Skie]

so for pure dmg hq staffs ore new trial staffs?

[Yugl]

New Trial staffs. And it's "or."

[cdgreg]

Earth MACC staff
Trial 855: 75 Arcana
Weather/Day: Earth

Assuming either a.) Myself on blm or b.) Dual box rdm + thf, what are the easiest mobs? Weapons in sky somewhere?

For the ice staff I solo'd dolls for FoV pages but that was SLOOWWWW, like 20-25 a day. Hoping there's something faster now that I do not need kill-shot.

I did a mix of Romaeve + Sky (It depends on who is doing what at the time). Weapons people are either MNK doing the DEF Down H2H or Axe DDs killing during thunder weather. At sky, I just look for people farming dolls.

I wish my server was busier in this regard. 90% of the time it seems like the trials are done with in the first mth of the update and then the camps are all dead.

[Yugl]

People just don't do them on Diabolos.

It's a weekend right now, Ro'maeve should be packed

There's still a lot of people doing trials. It's notwhere near as packed, but on certain days you can get hordes of people doing trials. The big ones are thundersday and firesday. There's also some niches like thf+dnc doing daggers on windsday and blus doing sword on darksday. And there's always a few people doing staffs.

[orson]

Ya that could be it with our server too. Lately everyone seems really lazy apart from the JP community.

Level sync an option? N-Central Tower in East Saruta has cardians, 2's and 3's. Sync can be 10-12 and as long as you have someone on a melee class you can clear 80-90 arcana in a day - DNC+BRD worked, and samba was enough healing easily, mage+any heavy DD would be cake as well.

I did mine with a group of 3 or 4 people who were doing clusters in Mount Z, so that might be pretty fast if there's people doing them there. It is earth weather there a decent amount too so you can sometimes get lucky if you come up a few short after earth day ends.

Finished this today, took about 6.5 hours total fight time. Did ~20 in Uleg but para breath was way too annoying, swapped to Teriggan at G/H-6/7 and did the rest there, plenty of raptors. Sometimes at night one repops as a Ghost and you have to pull from a little farther, but very rarely linked gobs, maybe 3-4 over the 230 raptors.

80 RDM/WHM in battila downs S on Djinns, earth weather very frequently. used En-spell of the day to make them blow up.
got KO'd a few times but thats what reraise is for. finished this and the trial befor it in one RL day.

only problem is they can pop as too weak, when day and/or weather wasnt up id kill the tooweaks to pop EPs. still pretty fast going.

[Plow]

Pretty much any arcana, especially low numbers, just go to Ro'Maeve on the day, sooo many people to group and basically every mob in the zone is a valid target.

[Classikmage]

Dear Jesus... SE why?.. 250 mobs of the wyvern family for Varuna's Staff +1. <.<;;

[Celebrindor]

any confirmed increases on affinity staves- meaning a 4/2 or 5/1 potency staff?
