Besieged Tips

[hongman]

I can buy coins with my IS? Maybe I should get my eyes checked, last time I checked with the guard I could only buy warp scrolls and lambert cells (what are they for??!!)

Hmm, I can even sell them for profit.

And how do I get the pay taru to offer me outpost warps, or is this the same as the 2nd option Eohmer was talking about?

[LyonheartLakshmi]

The pay taru doesn't directly offer you outpost teleports. What happens is that after you've used his services 3 times, he'll offer to Teleport you a choice of destinations: Jeuno, or your nation of allegiance. If you pick your nation, you'll wind up right next to the Outpost Teleport NPC, who you can then speak to for an Outpost Teleport.

[Murphie]

You don't buy the IS coins from the same guard you get Sanction from. The NPC is somewhat near the mog house, but in that main square. Look up Imperial coins on Wiki to get the name (or I can post it in a minute or so).

[Eohmer]

Did you know that if you use him enough times, he'll eventually give you a 2nd destination?

Yeah, you're home nation!

I didn't say Outpost Warps. He takes you to the your home nation, i.e. where you are from.

The NPC who sells Imperial Coins is Ugrihd, he's located in Aht Urhgan Whitegate in G-9. He charges Imperial Standing credits instead of gil.

Someone in my alliance for an upcoming besieged just told us how much time is left until it actually starts....

Was he BSing, or is there a tool somewhere that actually tells you when Besieged is going to happen?

Once the beastman army reaches 100 their forces increase at a set rate, they also take a set amount of time to reach Al Zhabi once they set-off (which is different for the 3 armies) so assuming the beastman army was above 100 it wouldn't be too hard to work out.

I mentioned the oupost warping since he drops you off in front of your nation's outpost teleporter.

Thanks all!

Now if only Sandoria actually controlled some decent areas....

San d'Oria control in the western continents have nothing to do with Aht Urghan.

I was referring to the Outpost Warping part in this thread so I can actually utilise Outpost Warps more often

[Raydeus]

Ever since my Rank 10 tour I've been unable to get Elshimo Uplands and Kolshushu back for outpost, and those were the 2 I used the most.

It seems I'll have to go buy the regions for windy, that or just move back to Basty after I get M.C. bracelets.

For some reason Basty always has the areas I outpost the most to.

[Eohmer]

So I was fighting a Phantasmal Puk during the Mamool Savages Beseiged...

I used Instant Reraise and Gian'ts Drink prior to engaging, and I noticed after a while, both were gone. Is this an ability this mob has, or did my machine glitch somehow and I got the worst end of it?

Edit: Hmm... found this.

* Uses White Wind: Curaga to nearby allies which restores around 990 HP.
* Uses Ill Wind: AoE Wind damage and Dispel.
* Uses all other standard Puk attacks, but has much higher HP, attack and evasion.

Can it be the above bold?

[hongman]

Sure looks like it

[hongman]

Update with something I'm sure isnt new but Iv only just seen...

2 attacking at once.

I got into WG, checked /bmap, and saw 2 of them was attacking. Shame I couldnt get in to particpate.

The closest Iv had since was attack -> 30mins(ish?) -> attack

Once a month they should have all 3 attack at once.

Or maybe not since the lag would be dire.

[Truece]

Two different armies will not attack the city at the same time. The late-comers will politely wait oustide the gates of Al Zahbi for the first battle to finish. If the AC is lost in the first fight, then I guess the second group just walks back home?

[hongman]

Haha, how curteous of them.
