The other day I happened to be hotfooting through Pashaw while an Uncapped ballista was going on.

I did a /sea of the area and saw something odd.

75WAR

No subjob.

Not a /whm01

just no /job.

The best part?

He was running around completely dominating anyone he 1 on 1'ed. He would have to back up if they started ganging up on him. But solo, with no support job, he was wiping the field with people.

Anyone else seen something crazy like this?

I've heard of people taking RDM to 75 just to prove they could, but a WAR? As if the invites weren't slow enough. lol

There's a trick to removing yout sub job.

I've seen WHM75 and BLM75 but never a war....... the inivtes would have been harse with those people that are "SJ happy"

Jei · 04-06-2006, 02:16 PM

what's the trick?

On PC version if you switch around your job and subjob fast enough you can end up with no subjob. I imagine lag is a factor so you might try it in lower jeuno.

select your mainjob then instently set your subjob to the same job but it takes forever to get it right

Intensity · 04-06-2006, 02:40 PM

Hahahaha I can't wait to try that.

Pyroweaver · 04-06-2006, 03:18 PM

Pyroweaver · 04-07-2006, 02:56 PM

no that will just d/c you......

Yeah, it takes forever to work, usually. I tried it for 10 minutes one time no luck. Tried it again one time and got it on the second try.
Start at like mnk/nin or anything else that doesn't invlove war. Then select war as main job and immediately select subjob as war (war is at the top of list, making it faster and more likely to work). It might be vice versa at setting sub job before main job. But its one of the two, screw around with it some and it should work.
Btw, people who take a job to 75 w/o a subjob should be shot for being selfish. Followed by the morons who still invite them.

When you change your main job and subjob to the same job to not have a subjob 'works' if you DON'T do is really fast. The faster you go, the more it won't work. It's a method of timing it. If I remember correctly it's about 0.75 sec, plus minus 0.25 secs. Of course most of us can press 3 buttons faster than 1 sec. Don't go so fast, slow down. Then again, I retired 12/1/04, I would love to play FFXI again, but in the slight chance of screwing up in college again, I'll pass.
