*shakes head*
Seriously, man. Lighten the F up.
Ever see this one before?
Cute, ain't it?
If you wanna discuss gear, sure - I'm all for it,
but getting worked up over it... not my style.
So just take a deep breath, and try to
relax when you type. Makes you seem like less
of a whiny bitch. Kthx.

| Yeah, you knew your gear set was flawed before I brought it to your attention. Sure ^^b |
Yeah, pretty much, cause see,
like I said it's not about making
a perfect build profile for me. You gotta look at the entire picture,
something most people seem to understand.

| ...you fail to address the majority of my points. I disliked your gear sets for reasons beyond you gear simply being “mish mashed”. Many of your pieces are merely expensive and easily replaced by cheaper better preforming pieces. You claim to not have enough room to make adequate profiles yet you have an “AFK” and a HP build profile. |
So yeah, your "point" is that you hate me because I like expensive gear.
Allright then. Doesn't really matter to me.
And yeah, I have an AFK profile as well as a HP profile.
What's wrong with that?
What I said was, there's not enough profiles to make gear sets for every individual NM/Mob. That's still true, regardless of me "wasting" two characters.
So let's see, I could delete those two and make "Fafnir Gear Setup" and "Bune Setup".
Yay, that's two mobs. What about the rest of them?
To make gear sets for everything you ever fight, you'd need 300 profiles.
What I said was true. Alla doesn't let you make enough characters to do that.

That's pretty much all you've done so far.
I replied to a thread, in a perfectly neutral tone.
You disagreed with my reply, but instead of just saying that
you just started whining about my alla profiles.
That wasn't just off-topic, it was just you
trying to swing your e-peen around.

In extended fights your MP is limited by the rate at which it can be replenished, not your Max MP. Your Max MP becomes irrelevant the second you finish casting your first spell since you should never hit full MP again for the duration of the fight. If you are sitting at full MP you are wasting MP and not keeping your hate threshold as high as it could be.
If you want to start a fight with some MP gear on and swap it our after you expend that MP that’s a great idea. If you want to swap some MP gear in before Chivalry, that’s smart playing and my hats off to you. But buying multi-million dollar gear for the sake of adding 10-15 points to your max MP, while bashing Valor and ignoring the other buffs it offers, is just plain asinine.
1500 is a survivable amount of HP if you mages have fantastic mages, but its still in the danger zone for a number of the harder mobs in the game and far from enough to consider wearing +MP gear instead of +HP gear full time. |
Yeah, the MP thing is true. I never said anything to discredit that, did I?
No, you made an
assumption again, basically putting words into my mouth (again).
Once again, I gotta refer to something I've
already said. *Sigh*
The character profiles do not show my macro pieces.
My Alla-profiles are not representative for everything I do in-game. Is this hard to understand? My tanking profile has a Gem Cuirass on it. Why? Because, like I said, I want my MP high and guess what; it gives MP - Valor doesn't (and yes, it's expensive, but seriously... Why do you even keep making that point? I can do whatever I want to, with my gil, can't I?).
After spending said MP however,
not once did I say that I would keep that cuirass equipped. You just made that
assumption. No, I'd be more likely to swap it out
for my K.Body. If I needed to use "Cover", sure swap in the damn Valor. I could even swap in the good, ol' Hauby+1 every once in a while.
You gotta
listen to what I'm saying! Those Alla-profiles aren't set in stone.
I macro in 27% Haste every time I cast Utsusemi/Flash, even though
you won't see that much Haste in either of my character profiles.
Thanks to my LS, I have a ton of rare/ex as well as pricey HQ stuff.
In fact, once I manage to find a Cursed Cuirass -1 and get a Valor Cape to drop,
I'm retiring my PLD completely. Ares' would be nice, but I'm already
too sick and tired of FFXI to start collecting anything of the sort.
And then there's the HP issue again.
I'm getting kinda tired of having everything boil down to
a discussion of how much HP is "needed", but sure... I'll do it.
I've tanked with 1900HP and I've tanked with 1500HP.
Not once has that made a difference.
With a competent support party, you shouldn't need more than that.
I suppose you're also one of those people who go "loltaru HNMPLD",
because you know, they have alot of trouble getting to 1550HP without
sacrificing too much enmity/haste.
Personally, I've
never died because of 1500HP not being enough.
There's a reason why that is my comfort zone. My mages are
able to keep me alive perfectly fine, with that amount.
To be quite honest, I get more of a feeling that you're clueless since you're still
living by the philosophy that HP > Everything else. If that was the case,
we'd still be running around in full Koenig and brick-walling everything we fight.

Seriously, just stop being a facist. The more you type, the more crap I see, and the less I am convinced you know anything about diversity or reading comprehension.
Honestly, just because
1. My Alla profiles are disorganized
2. I wear rare/expensive/HQ gear
3. I don't agree with your HP obsession
you're gonna start waving your e-peen around, and claim
to be better than me? Sure, suit yourself. I actually don't really care
what you think of me, since we're not even on the same server -
much less in the same LS. I'm never gonna have to work with you,
so why would your opinion of me matter?
If you can't stay on topic, at least try to keep
it a gear discussion. Or hell, let's expand, and
start sharing some tactics too. I don't mind.
Just don't try to make it personal. That's just retarded.
