What? No /SCH?

Oh I have /SCH, it's 42 right now. I still have to bring it to an abyssea some time in the near future to bring it to 49... but until then, it still works for what I need it to do.

Re: Battle Adjustments (02/01/2011)

Over the weekend my main goal is to farm seals for SMN and NIN as well as get 3 more mega boss clears for my 3rd lunar. The lunar is my top priority.

So far I've cleared La Thein, Grauberg, Attowah and Vunkerl. I also got Sippoy while I was in Vunkerl. I just want to be able to equip Cloak and Dagger, Razed Ruins and Stout arm on my NIN and tear sh*t up. Is that so much to ask?

Re: Battle Adjustments (02/01/2011)

Yes. Yes, you do. Convert --> Cure VI as WHM still gets me all tingly.

People in my LS were talking the other night about the increased exp & how addictive it is. Perhaps I'll pull out my 45NIN over the weekend and get it at least to 49. Maybe even beyond if I'm having fun.

Really?

................................................

Theres a story behind that...

*ahem*

Back in 2005, when my friend Adam and I decided we were going to play FFXI together, we decided early to choose jobs that would benefit one-another. I opted to take WHM, THF and BLM. He took WAR, MONK and RDM. Years went by and we reached our respective level caps. Eventually I took on SMN when it was an option and maintained WHM as my SJ. There was never really any need for /RDM when you were a SMN... and I never took /BLM off my WHM for any reason at all.

Fast forward to the present.

Suddenly the level cap increases and abilities such as convert become available for /RDM.

So... now I have a reason.

Re: Battle Adjustments (02/01/2011)

480-500? 700+ with the ring? Good lord! I can't wait to level RDM now. I'll be level 45 in less than 24 hours with a little solo work, 1 party in Qufim Island and a trip to abyssea.

Guess who just found his goal for Saturday.

What level is your RDM anyhow?

I think the last time I played on my RDM I think I could solo reasonably for like between 40 and 60 exp per kill. So it looks like that could be 80 and 120 with the changes? Idk ... I just need to find a good PT and rake in the boon on exp chaining.

Killing Jugs in Garliage Cit. with DC > EM pets on my BST getting about 480-500 exp without chain on jugs and with Emperors ring I get about 700-750 exp. Good stuff, I think SE should have implemented this and had a higher cap on entrance to Abbysea zones and all would be well in Vana'diel. Oh! Kill item drop rates for farmed up items such as Angel Skin etc. too in Abby, jeez the AH is barron these days.

Re: Battle Adjustments (02/01/2011)

I went into Aby Grauberg on PUP (I had been there Sunday night and parked outside the maw) and at ~300 H2H (went from 299 to 305), I even saw an 0.4 and 0.5 in the same attack. I didn't check how much Kenbishi gained, but the "bigger numbers" were exactly what I expected -- 0.4s and 0.5s when I would never have seen them before.

I haven't done any exp outside of Abyssea since then, though. The update came just in time for me to feel like messing around in there after having gotten most of the important Atmas.

Angel Skin is worth no more than NPC price because it's mainly used to make cursed items, which aren't so popular anymore. Unless SE add in some substantial (Magian style) upgrades for Neptunal Abjuration gear, it's hard to see why Angel Skin's prices would recover.

Re: Battle Adjustments (02/01/2011)

Did this include that thingy (Please forgive me, I have been out of the loop for so long, but it's like leves in FFXIV ... in the beginner zones you got to do some "missions" every 24 hours for boon to exp and the patch removed the cooldown off this)

I did one Field of Valor Page, so only about 300exp of the run from 1-10 came from that; the only stopping I did was for some resting. As for chaining, I don't know that they've changed that at all.

Re: Battle Adjustments (02/01/2011)

Heh, your almost wasting time now getting more than one page at this point (at least for those low levels (imo)). Don't you get like ~300xp per page? You can probably kill 3-4 EP/DCs now in the time it would take you to get another page.

You're thinking of Fields of Valor.
