Random Question Thread XIII: If You Get Linked Here, You're Retarded

[scaevola]

I just soloed everything in windy up to 9-2 on rdm, which i'm about to duo with rdm+drg.

edit: definitely could have soloed 9-2 as well.

Soloed Bastok; hardest part was Quicksand door.

EDIT: as dnc/blm :/

Can you get skill ups in bastion? Also is there a min level for getting exp from it?

[Scritch]

I think SE mentioned that XP below Lv.65 will be cut down just like Campaign, but no level limit per say. idk about skillup. I haven't gotten any, but it lasts too short to really tell.

If I was going to unlock Leaden Salute, do I actually need to do a gun ws, or could I do say Savage Blade so that I can make light? Another COR I know said it would work but I am not sure...

[barber2006]

Am I right in thinking that the new weather bonuses for magian staves don't work for killshots? That is, no getting 5 points per kill on ice staff if there happens to be ice weather up?

its the same as campain, if you don't get a tag you could get skill ups but really the fights are too short to even bother.

Any recommendations for determining the activation rate for magnus weapons?

I'm planning on testing it soon, and I thought I would equip a stack of stones, engage while watching the stones drop, and swapping in a fresh stack when they start to get low, while using kparser to keep track of total swings.

How many swings would constitute a statistically-viable set?

I'd like to check to see if it activates on double attack hits at the same time; what can I do to maximize the reliability of kparser's double attack detection? It should become apparent pretty quickly whether it does or not, assuming a non-abysmal activation rate, but I'd rather have the data at hand than eyeball it.

Also, I assume I should be fighting things on which I'll have capped attack, to minimize individual hit variances, making the doubled damage more obvious.

Any input is appreciated; I'd like to make it a worthwhile test rather than a waste of time if I'm headed for some pitfall in my logic.

Thanks in advance.

If i did all of the level 1-2 fame required quests in attowa, except Threadbare Tribulations, how many times would i need to repeat the linkpearl quest to get level 3 fame? Alternatively, if i did Threadbare Tribulations, would that get me level 3 fame?

I got rank 3 fame with just: 1 Something in the Air, 1 Wayward Wares, 1 Looking For Lookouts. I did like 5 Resistance Ops, specifically Crimson Carpet II

I've done more than you, and about 5 resistance ops (those give fame?) as well, and still rank2 fame

[Scritch]

Well uhhh... idk. I'm definitely rank 3, and I didn't repeat any of those quests. All I repeated was Resistance Ops. (I'm certain they give fame too. I had Rank 2 fame, and then did one and got Rank 3, with nothing else in between).

I was probably just off on the number of times I repeated that Op.

[rog]

Ok, thanks.

edit: did two ops, and got rank3 ^^

I thought molybdenum ingots were hella expensive...wth happened? And same for ori ingots, that thing dropped like 50% in the last month. Am I missing something?

[Nemesio]

Hopefully doing Ruminator within the next day or 2, any special strat to him? From reading wiki the only thing I have gathered is he is hard.

Common drops in gold boxes in the new Abyssea zones.

Is it known whether or not the Double Attack+7 on the magian katana counts for main hand as well? Not sure if that's able to be tested or not

[Byrthnoth]

What quests do I do for Charis: Head/Legs/Feet seals? I'm more interested in Head/Legs than Feet at the moment.

[Shenrien]

Anyone happen to know the .dat of the Vertical conflux? I need to change these, for some reason I lag like shit around them, but everywhere else in the game I'm perfectly fine.

[buddha_masta]

Does Add'tl effect dmg from Excalibur garner enmity?

[Raen Ryong]

Additional effects never do.

It's on wiki really.

[Byrthnoth]

It's on wiki really.

Is it? Last time I checked it was like, "Quest can reward seals." "NMs dorp this" "lolwiki"
