Re: 8-27 Update!

Do any RNGs know if Empyreal/Detonator is worth it now? I just got it and I have no idea of comparisons after update.

Re: 8-27 Update!

I got 31% Chaos roll with a drk in the poarty on 11, but he was in a differnt zone.

I forget if that matters or not, eigther way thats a + (I think his maths were off though)

ok checked their results, hot damn 40-41% XI roll with a drk is INSANE!

Re: 8-27 Update!

'sup guys. Word on Blue Gartr is that 1 STR -> 1 Attack for 2-handers now. Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ. Also, regarding Evoker's Roll...

1 MP/tick: 1, 2, 3, 4, 9
2 MP/tick: 6, 7
3 MP/tick: 5, 8, 10
So 6, 7, 8, and 10 are upgraded so far. Still trying to roll 11 >.>

Just got an 11, looks like 4/tick
New chart:
1-4: 1 MP
5: 3 MP
6-7: 2 MP
8: 3 MP
9: 1 MP
10: 3 MP
11: 4 MP

5 MP/tick on an 11 if you have a SMN? Yeah, sure, I'd drop a roll for that.

EDIT: http://ffxi.allakhazam.com/db/jobs.h...;num=11;page=1

In retrospect, no, I wouldn't drop a roll for that. I mean...haha...oh wow. Look out, BRD. Look out.

At the very least he's probably one of the few 90 minute pets now, which is 6x his old duration ^^b

Re: 8-27 Update!

The drop rate for the following items has been adjusted:
Leech Saliva/Antican Acid/Lizard Blood/Bird Blood/Beast Blood/ Loam

Hopefully we will get more Jug Pets made now. And the price of the High End ones will come down to where normal BSTs can use them.

So Mole Broth, Blood Broth and Antica Broth should get cheaper, doesn't really do much for Sun Water, though. Well I guess letting us have lots of Amigo Sabotender would be a bit unbalancing.

Re: 8-27 Update!

Yeah it was a taru NIN/BLM.

40 min and counting...

Re: 8-27 Update!

It says at the bottom of the notes that the pit was delayed, and is scheduled for Sept 11th update. I think Sev editted that out though in his original post.

The bastards!

I'll have like 3 days of gameplay before I gotta pack everything up for when I move to uni :_;

Re: 8-27 Update!

Yes they do exist, and now it's going to be an even better buff than before ^_^
Come on 35-40% EXP on an 11! >. >b
Also, found this for fun:
@ - @ I wants to be a NIN/BLM

thats a really really really old screen shot..... i remember seeing it a couple years ago. its a taru nin/blm right?

Re: 8-27 Update!

Something as big as the pit would get its own little report from SE. Would not be included in the main report, hell even the chocobo stuff gets its own report. Not at the same time as the main one.

But wouldn't be surprised if it was delayed again, all good things are lol

Re: 8-27 Update!

you have cors that actually use corsair's roll? @_@

I was thinking in lower level parties where they don't neccessarily have much else to offer. My memories of being left out of the roll was in Lower Defults Tower, and occasionally in Quicksand Caves.

However, if you have top notch melee (Ridills, Black Belts, tons of HQ) and you don't need all that extra damage, I can't see the harm in Corsair's Roll. Friend in my LS who's been experimenting with rolls in meripo, our average exp/hr is increasing with corsairs roll over other buffs the majority of times. Especially against mobs like Colibri that are super weak as it is, mamools I'd still prefer a normal buff over Corsair's Roll.

Re: 8-27 Update!

I don't see much of this new set gear matching (though I do like that for what I see so far, a lot of it is non-standard stuff. e.g. shield, and earring instead of body/head/etc.).

Those grips are exactly as powerful as I expected. e.g. Double attack +2% tops. Oh well, not disappointed. I do kinda wish they would've left Raging Rush tp->damage. I have a feeling the 2 handed changes would be enough for it. I also wish the crit one was 4% instead of 3 but once again, I think the 2 handed changes are enough for much jubilation -- Grips just make my 2 hander more fun, not more powerful.

Also, I wonder if that mage grip would be useful for DRKs. mp+20 enmity-2 one.

As for the DRG weapon skills, I think I like the changes. Penta Thrust being a crit to tp would just be too much. This change will (hopefully) help keep both weapon skills useful. Warriors will still be stuck with Rampage-or-buff mentality.
