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

[ronin sparthos]

There's absolutely nothing to suggest capped ambers helps in any way for getting boots. They drop in small gold chests, and with a way too small sample size, it seems like they drop more frequently in small chests. Past that, kill faster is the only way to increase how many you see~

The martello core also plays an unknown factor in droprates of treasure zonewide.

<200, 480-530

Edit: using my brain, it's actually everywhere but 480-530, but you'll see best results trying to land in 480-530 range if you can't get <180 or so

K was a thread on alla talking about the delay roll for mnk and w/ Taipan fangs+1, looking at 171 delay punch

It's actually below 180 that TP/sec starts increasing significantly, as you can see from the graph.

Does the blue chest I open for Wanted: Medical Supplies need to be in Abyssea-Misareaux or can it be any blue chest in any zone?

The "Enhances Ebullience" effect from 20% to 25% on Savant's Bonnet +1 (head) worthwhile over other nuking pieces? Needs to be worn during casting.

Should easily win unless you're liable to be resisted.

Thorny (Or someone else) mentioned that while frequency is reduced when you have capped Amber light, it's also the case that you receive more feet when you do receive AF feet. If this is the case, capped Amber resulting from built up Amber lights may not be so bad since built up Amber lights increases the frequency with which you see gold boxes as opposed to red or blue.

Think it can be any Scars zone. Don't quote me on that, though.

Ok. In a Tahrongi xp party at the moment and just wondering if I should ask to open one. Sounds like no. Thanks.

I've seen double feet in large chests like twice I think? I've still seen single feet in large chests. As for the frequency thing, eh, maybe slightly, but it's really low, and we've seen small gold chests pour without any ambers outside of what we got from red chests (low enough that large weren't popping). In my personal opinion, the best way to get more feet is to kill shit faster (aka, fell cleave party). It's not worth the time/slower kills to worry with amber. When you lose out on some 120ish kills in order to cap amber, it's really really not worth it.

Anyone know where I can find a copy of all the FFXI expansion disks that isn't a torrent? I can't DL torrents in my dorm, but I can get away with some MU and RS type stuff. My brother mentioned that they were hosted somewhere on the windower forums, but I've searched all over and can't find it.

Try anyway. Chests aren't hard.

Hence, why a person with fully merited Diffusion would only be able to keep Refresh up every 5min for 5min. Notice that I'm including the duration of Refresh.

What do you use Diffusion for? At best (Max merits), we have an AOE Refresh every 5min, but it's nothing significant in my opinion.

When doing trial weapons for quested weapons skills (savage blade in my case), Do you have to have the weapon in the mainhand? Or is offhand just fine and dandy?

[rog]

main hand only.

Magnet Weapons; how do they work?

Blitzers roll vs no war in pt fighter's roll for nin mnk thf.

[rog]

I would imagine blitzer's, since the tp loss isn't that big a deal for those jobs (NOOOOOOOOOOO can't lose the 20hit build!), but not sure.

What would be the lowest/best setup to consistently kill Carabosse with in a timely manner?

Well, you gain an attack round, but you still ws more over time. It's not like losing a 5hit on sam to 6hit and ws'ing less times.
