Random Question Thread XV: This Is Not The Sticky You're Looking For

How hard of a solo is Gieremund on RDM? Looks like the easiest way for WAR Head seals, being as it doesn't require a pop item or anything, so I'm just wondering about any idea for where to fight/any tricks?

Gnad/gorget/Bushi/Brutal
Osode/ALky/Rajas/Flame
Smild+1/Warwolf/Usu/Perle

and I'm floating in the 1k-1.2k range on Gekko, seen the occasional 1.5-1.7 on DA proc.

Basic atmas (hero, and RR but that does nothing for sam), but shit lol, as it is now, compared to my jobs that have a crit ws, my 75 pup and 80 drg could outdamage this.

Is sam low tier now? lol

sam's always been low tier, only thing it has going for it is that it's empyrean is piss-easy to finish

but it's still inferior to good DD w/ their empyreans, so meh

Oh shit Djinn work? Fuck I was told they weren't part of the bomb family. Thanks, this'll be a cakewalk /w Abyssea mobs for the last 2 trials~

Fair enough

For what it's worth I have a good 5-hit Keito+1 WS DMG+10% setup on my sam. And my crap MNK /w no AF3 still using Destroyers destroys it completely. I haven't used SAM once since I lvl'd MNK to 85.

**Cream Soda** · 2010-10-26 21:22

Even though you have destroyers, your mnk certainly isn't crap, but that does help, tyvm.

Just got Anguinus Belt (Acc 15, attack 15, DA+1%)

With war, mnk,sam, drg, cor, and dnc, which WS' should I be using this belt for over warwolf (acc capped and uncapped situations)

2/5 Para2

Some argument over the group twos now that its easy as piss to cap Slow2, and sab+para2 in my opinion is just amazing. Bio3's only real purpose is soloing, and @5/5 its quite MP efficient.

5/5 Convert is a no brainer again, and I say 5/5 Ice because of bind and blizzard. Yes, you can make a good argument for wind accuracy for gravity, but you don't get the double bonus you get with ice. Yeah Aero4 is our best NOW, but not down the road.

Hmm right now I got Max Slow2 and Bio3 and this seems like a good option to rework my Tier2 merits. Paralyze is just that great now even on most Abyssea NMs.

**rog** · 2010-10-26 22:36

Multiple slow merits is silly. Not only are you capping slow pretty easily with sabo and elegy, but it just doesn't even matter anyway. A few % of slow potency won't help pretty much at all. Better off doing 4-5 para.

I really can't believe you asked if you would WS in that belt for cor....

I would assume warwolf is still better since fstr doesnt cap on WS I believe?

Lol, I really can't believe you took that seriously, lol. I was kidding, but the reason I asked (for the other jobs) is that I saw a convo on one of these threads (either here or what's better) w/ this belt vs Warwolf on A-fury and this belt coming ahead (even though Afury is 50% str 50% vit mod)

**Jeryhn** · 2010-10-26 23:07

What's the repop time on Jailer of Temperance?

**Deader2818** · 2010-10-26 23:08

Instant. Ive popped him back to back before.

**Jeryhn** · 2010-10-26 23:11

Are you sure? I was under the impression it popped VNM style until its linked Zdei was killed, and prior experience scouting the zone supports this. I've been sitting here looking at its grave on radar and it hasn't moved at all.

**Deader2818** · 2010-10-26 23:15

Well, we didnt kill it in the same spot, we killed it. And moved on to Ix'MNK and killed another PH otw and it spawned again.

Its instant, same as Ix'DRG, but can still take forever to spawn as its a true lotto spawn.

**Jeryhn** · 2010-10-26 23:19

Will it appear on radar before its actually popped? This is what I've had happen before.

**Deader2818** · 2010-10-26 23:20

Not that ive seen.
