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

[rog]

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.

Losing a 20 hit build was a joke. Like i said, i'd imagine blitzer's would win, but it might be a bit close, and i can't even say for sure, since i'm too lazy to do any maths on it.

Can someone explain the colors of mob names in APRadar please? Purple names are mobs that are able to pop/window is up? Why is it that when someone else engages a mob it turns purple too, before it's dead?

Green is for dead bodies? They only disappear when zoning? I tried re-logging but the green name of the NM i just killed remained green, up until it popped again. I guess need to fully zone?

What if I enter a zone and someone just killed an NM i was looking for, would this name be purple or green?

AFAIK red = unclaimed or depopped. Purple = claimed or last action by someone else (in or outside of your party). Green = claimed or last action by you. Green @ 0% probably means killing blow by you, Purple @ 0% = killing blow someone else.

[rog]

Purple is claimed by someone that's not you (even someone in your party/alliance). Green is claimed by you.

It will be purple. If you were the last person to kill it, then it'd be green.

Has Myrmecoleon been found yet? I haven't been playing much for a few weeks so I'm behind on the times.

[Rellikard]

Did you try not warping there and just running? Might not help at all but just a thought.

Have not. I'll try that once I log on next. Thanks for the reply.

Yes, check the Tahrongi thread.

for Town gear what's better:
Tizona/OAT 41 damage antea vs Tizona/Str sham+1 ?

[Nightfyre]

I'd say Antea.

Garlaige or CN for beetles in dark-based weather?

EDIT: Or Sauromugue (S)?

[jimbobsonofgod]

sorry GC can also do quick sand caves all the same problem though indoors shit.

Does the oat have a white border?

Thx. So is there no way to tell when an NM's window is actually up? Or are they always going to be either purple/green with 0 HP%

Not worried about repops, it's just 10 mobs. Thanks.

Well you can't tell anything based entirely on seeing it purple with 0% hp, but a little more information can tell you some things. For example, if you killed it last, but it shows up purple, then you know someone else killed it while you were gone.

It's also possible to tell exactly who killed it last, which again, can let you know if it was killed without you knowing. Though that still requires you to know when/who killed it last.

Any info on the "increases critical hit damage" on Loki's Kaftan?

[jimbobsonofgod]

NO white border but I guess that matches my AFIII + Ebur ....

[rog]

nq af3 is not acceptable town gear. Except maybe the feet.

Here's a question that may be difficult to figure out. The new Keitonotachi +1 says "Weapon Skill: Dmg:+10%. Does that mean only Great Katana weaponskills? Or does that extend to Archery weaponskills as well? I would assume that it means Great Katana weaponskills only because there was a screenshot of someone augmenting their Shigeto Bow with Darkness Skillchain damage increase, but it only affected Darkness skillchains closed with an Archery weaponskill.

I did the Store TP route last update, so I'm kind of stuck unless I decide to start a new Keitonotachi. If it extends to Archery weaponskills as well, I'd have a formidable weapon to use with Yoichinoyumi when I'm playing ghetto Ranger on Samurai. I'm not getting my hopes up though. Thank you for any responses!

[rog]

Should be GK only.

[Nattack]

possibly returning, question go

fencing - is it worth it? the only job i 1h with was bst, and that was rare due to rarely not subbing nin for survival purposes. i probably should have sold tatami... but bstkiller and str+5

how much of my homam is still useful for a non-pool-everything-into drk? as far as i remember the only pieces i used on it were legs hands and feet.

i heard xp is gained in alliances now, how true is this?
