Get it to 49 this time you lazy bum (Ya I saw your General thread. Can't deny shit!).

Abraxas work pretty good for skilling up to 85... they're 85-86 it seems... I'd stick to the EMs, as they hit for 60-100 with signet up while engaged, but upwards of 150-220 if you're not engaged...

Has anyone figured out how the mobs in Mount Z, Aydeewa Subterrane, mire, and reef had their mobs changed? I went through the area near cerberus and saw no changes, but haven't been able to check the rest yet.

Suggestions for dark weather/day undead? Syncs aren't an option since I don't have a mule bitch, so I'm thinking Fei'yin on bottom floor, but I can't remember if the Shadows on the way to Shiva would still be EP or not. Weather would be ideal to cut the 300 kills to 60.

Does ugly range have undead? Can't remember. If it does you can try there, dark weather shows up every so often, and you can get a forecast with the magian specs now so that helps.

Edit: Just checked wiki, range does in fact have skeles and ghosts.

Think they only spawn at night, though. At least I recall one undead hound while working on buffalo for my 2-3x dagger. Never saw a skele, though.

The ghosts only spawn at night, but unlike other locations for Doom Mage and Doom Warrior wiki doesn't specify that they only spawn at night, You can go check, they might be higher up. That's the only place other then xarc I can think of atm. Xarc S might work if it also has undead but I tend to stay away from there so don't know what monsters roam around.

Dropped off of the bugard NM in Abyssea...misareaux i think, one of those.

Answering my own question so far: Mount Zhaylom is the same on the front half. Once you dip through halvung and back out, the area where Dahaks spawn has changed some. The King Apkallu at E-6 have all been changed into Scoriaceous Eruca. All checked IT++ to an 80 BLM, they were packed rather tightly and a few dahak spread between them, looked like it might be a nice TP burn spot if you can stand to fight eruca.

Further south, past the Execution chamber, the C-9 square is FILLED with new Orichalcumshell. They all are IT and so far have given 300 a kill to an 80 BLM solo, 264 to a party of 2. Apx 5600 HP, that's 4 ~1400 nukes

Is there a place that people tend to gather for mass lizard slaughter? Firesday specifically, and I think it's superfamily, though I haven't been able to verify yet.

On titan, Kuftal tunnel was the popular place when I had to kill lizards for day of the week. Starting off in the large room around I-10, we would kill everything, then swing to the basement around F-7. Worked our way through all the raptors, then head back to the Altepa desert zone for the lizards there. If timing was good, they would start repopping around the time we finished off the ones at the zone. 10 man or so alliance of pld/rdm/blu, so your mileage may vary.

Good DRK merit suggestions?

5 Last Resort recast / effect (If you frequently have enough support to be spamming souleater, recast on that is a good option instead of LR effect.)

5 Diabolic Eye

5 Desperate Blows

Can someone explain this MS + Fell Cleave thing? or point me to the picture?

I guess it's only viable once you've capped pearl and azure for max restore chests?

Has anyone (Namely Rog) updated the Icons/UI for the update? Search yielded nothing relevant regarding this patch.

Reinstalled the previous version, and my search menu lacks the TotM option along with the new spell icons being FUBAR'd.

Three pages back.

Apply FFXIStyle as you used to, then replace ROM\119\57.dat with Rog's.


The TotM option will still be unusable though, until someone fixes it.
