Convert Ratio Fun

No Food.

And I don't own a lick of any of that fancy smancy End-Game Gear.



Edit:
Yes, I'm broke. Leveling Clothcraft does that -_-

Re: Convert Ratio Fun

Yeah, but thankfully, my sugarmommas keep me well fed.

Honestly though.. If it was up to my favorite Mithra MNK, I'd be half-naked when I {Cover} her, but she "likes a hard Taru better than a soft one."

This thread went to a different place.

Re: Convert Ratio Fun

Have you considered Intensifying Cape? It's from Assault, so it's not really fancy end-game item.

Re: Convert Ratio Fun

It's a bit harder as an Elvaan, but I started carrying a few extra MP pieces around to swap in for Convert, so that I can cure to full after without losing much MP, then I switch back to my potency pieces. As /BLM I have about a 5:4 HP to MP ratio going when I swap in pieces to Convert.

Re: Convert Ratio Fun

996mp that's very good. Personally, I came to the conclusion that all you need is 1k for convert ratio...anymore then that will generally go to waste since these days /whm is the standard. My current convert ratio is 1040mp...old areas I can go upto 1080mp as /whm but requires me carrying one extra item. And yeah, without food, I do have max mp merits (8/8 = 80mp). I will admit...it's nice to go /smn just to see how much mp you have...I think I have 1250...

Re: Convert Ratio Fun

You don't "need" all that crazy endgame gear to get a fantastic convert ratio on RDM, but it certainly doesn't hurt.

I'm closing in on 1100/1100 with food. I need to pick up a Magnetic Earring and a Loquacious Earring to hit those figures as RDM/WHM at 75.

I'll see if I can post some pics later.

Re: Convert Ratio Fun

what do you mean Convert ratio? and what is the point of switching gear just for convert?

Re: Convert Ratio Fun

To get more MP.

By Convert ratio they mean the ratio of HP to MP. If it's something like 1000/800 then that's 200 MP that went to waste because your max MP couldn't hold it. Ideally, max HP should equal max MP, but of course having 800/800 isn't any better than 1000/800. Basically, you want to bring the lower of the two up to par with the higher one.

Re: Convert Ratio Fun

I'm at 1030something as a Hume RDM with food, with the proper gear I should be able to hit at least 1100 as a RDM/BLM. As RDM/WHM I should be around 950+ with food.

But I don't know if that's good or bad nowadays.

Does anyone know what's the max Convert number with all the uber gear and whatever Race is the most apropiate?

Re: Convert Ratio Fun

Zenith's is my best friend when I convert >.> but I'm a damn elvaan, and I really dont think I could hit near 1:1 without "endgame" gear.
