1. Today, while doing BCNM40 with a couple other rangers I noticed I was hitting harder than the other rangers. I checked the ranger who was closer to me damage wise and he was hume (like me), he had the same bow & arrows and his gear had the same ranged atk and str stats. He ate yellow curry and I ate dhalmel stew.

With zero fame, dhalmel stew is 2.7k from an NPC in Windurst Waters and Yellow curry is 7.5k on AH. Both foods last three hours.

2. Scorpion arrows are the best at L40 because there is no upgrade to x-bows at L40.

3. The Noct +1 set is the best L40 armor for rangers. Emperor hairpin and leaping/winged boots are still a bit better than the head and feet pieces.

www.ffxi.somepage.com has updated their food section to include level and attack ranges for each of the different foods, i'd advise anyone who eats foods to check it out



Why be like someone famous when you can be like me.

Yellow curry's awesome but I've started using Bison Steak post-40. If you're having issues missing alot you probably wanna use Squid sushi for the racc+ but with my full noct +1 and being Mithra I don't have a miss issue so I pick my food for more dmg vs. racc+

Re: Thinking of coming back, cpl questions after all the apparent updates
Squid Sushi would probably be your number one choice even thought the cost per stack is pretty steep. I dont recall Dhamel Stew being more useful then Yellow Curry but I could be wrong...

Re: Thinking of coming back, cpl questions after all the apparent updates
I used dhalmel pies and notice a better damage boost compare to dhalmel stew. around 15-30 more damage per shot.

Re: Thinking of coming back, cpl questions after all the apparent updates
I've been using squid sushi. I think I'm going to switch to sole sushi when I run out though...I'm a r. acc. whore but I like the sound of +5 str more than +5 agi.
