Random Question Thread XII: Don't Believe Advanced's Lies

One extra note on Stealth Shot - the cap from gear and Enmity Decrease merits is 50 total. However, you can have 50 additional Enmity- from JAs such as Camouflage and Stealth Shot. This was tested on Kaeko's enmity testing. Multiply the two together to get the real reduction - so Enmity-50 from gear/merit and Enmity-50 from JA gives you an effective Enmity-75. So no matter what sort of Enmity- gear you have, you can still benefit from 4/5 or 5/5 Stealth Shot.

Wow, did not know that. Thanks.

What's the latest in the month you can stay activated before canceling your payment on your account without getting charged for the next month? I suppose I'm talking both day and time of day.

Trial 87 (Wamoura + Firesday/Fire weather H2H) Is kicking my fucking ass. Suggestions?

[Clerix]

Mount Zhaylom. Ask BLM friends if they can kill some wamoura for you. If not, you could bring some other people on a similar trial, but be sure to bring some healers and dispels

Yeah I suppose I'll have to take a crew out there then. There's a spot in Halvung that has a decent little camp with the lessers conning EP instead of the EM-T's of the Princes in Zhaylom. The flying Wamoura are about the same level in both zones. Getting people to go decently deep into Halvung just for a stupid trial is a pain in the ass, and the day restriction makes it that much worse. But meh, oh well.

[Nightfyre]

STR sword trial has a vermin x200 trial and other weapons probably have similar trials, could try setting up a shout group and heading down to the camp near puddings.

Acubens Helm? It's like 150-350k from VNM shells that sell drops.

Possibly other magian daggers for different situations. Mostly thinking Parazonium, STR Kila, or STP Fusetto.

[Diddy Kong]

Was working on Parazonium, got discouraged. Gonna wait after update soon. And would acuben's beat turban? I'm not sure if the loss of 10 acc would beat 1% haste.

I see a lot of people talking about their Cure1-5 builds and recently I've become interested in how I should be gearing for each? Currently I have a blanket 1-5 set which is generally focused on Cure Potency/MND, with of course enmity- and a bit of haste mixed. I'm assuming for cure4 I should be focused on -enmity, but what kind of difference should I have between my Cure 1/2/3/5 sets?

everything Rog said!for cure 1-4 i usually use the same set,stacking cure pot and enm- mainly.then for cure 5 switch to more MND/healing magic skill pieces and keep the cure pot:u'll still have some enm- pieces that will cover that np! this is my cure 5 set http://www.ffxiah.com/item-sets/62912
and this is the one for Cure 1-4 http://www.ffxiah.com/item-sets/176399

Are Urd/Skuld currently RDM soloable? Wiki only lists Urd being soloable by BST, but it might be out of date or something.

By that extension, will they be soloable come 85, and will Verthandi be a remote possibility?

[Byrthnoth]

Soooooooo... Maint until 9 EST now. How about that?
