Is the NM "Noble Mold" able to spawn in rainy weather during non-rainy real life months?

That is a damn good question, and it would be hard to prove either way.

As I understood it, the placeholders had to be *alive* for a certain period of time. Some crazy period like weeks or something.

After that period had passed it had a chance to take a placeholder out during rainy weather, and respawn as Noble Mold.

For noble mold, the mycos need to be alive for 12+ hrs. There is then a chance during rain for the myco to morph into the nm. Rain only really happens in zitah between vanadiel months 4 through 6, hasn't got anything to do with real life months

Thanks, since we're currently in Vanadiel month 3 guess I timed this correctly then :) Appreciate your response!

Is there an easy way to go about finding out/fixing the birthday tied to an account, without looking suspicious to se? When SE accounts first came out, I didn't realize you could tie more than one playonline ID to the same account, and I made a kind of joke account for my mule, and it's kind of biting me in the *** now, because I can't update any of the address information without first inputting the birthday, which I have no f'ing clue what I put it as.

Edit to add, what information do you need to unlink an id from a square account? Can I unlink it and relink it without knowing the birthdate on it?

unlinking is essentially impossible(the only time i've heard of someone successfully doing so involved doing the entire recall process and required physical mail to be sent)

changing the birthday is probably similar, if the name on your SE account is fake i wouldn't count on any help from SE on any of it

Well the account was originally my sisters, she gave it to me a long long time ago. It has a real name and address tied to it (her name with my address), I just don't know what I put the birthdate as. It's not hers, and not anything I can think of. I also doubt she'd go through the trouble of notarizing a copy of her ID if it came to that.. maybe if I begged her a bunch but I'd hate to be an inconvience.

Pretty stupid question: what are the prereqs to get the Hard Mode Avatar KIs?

I just went and killed all the NQ ones and I still can't buy em.

NQ as in which? Pretty sure you need to beat them on normal or higher to have access to D. VE/E won't work.

Oh. LS mate has this problem. He wasn't able to buy until he actually completed the quest and picked an item. Did you actually turn all your quests in?

You have to have closed the quests for each avatar, either taking an item or the pact, you can't have used the KI's for access to Fenrir. I had used my KI to get the moon bauble for Fenrir, because I wasn't a SMN and didn't care about the gear or pacts, and had to redo all the avatars in order to get the KI. In order to flag the individual avatar quests, you have to have a specific fame level in each of the areas.

Is idling at Colonization Reives the preferred method of skilling up now? I need to level Throwing, Bow, and Gun from essentially 0. The Reives don't have any evasion, correct? Seems better than hunting worms all over the map...

does dark based sleep work on the rabbit/wyvern in the Head Wind II fight?
I might not be able to find a bard for it and may need to use a setup with a blm or rdm instead.

Not sure if it's best, but I did the following for bow:
Worms in LTP
Manticores in Tahrongi
Raptors in Mis
Crabs/Frogs in Mis
Mini-Cralwers in Vunk

The only time I didn't finish in the time frame was the last - I was 30 shy of finishing the 400 trial in 2 hours. RNG (slightly underskilled) WHM BRD (4 song). If you actually care about and have real gear for RNG (mine's a mule) you will probably be able to go faster.

I already have both gun and bow @119 on main, doing trials for mule so gear is still 109 and some still need 109 papers, that's why I need to do the trials on my mule due to RoE.

For Gun, try:
Beasts: Misareaux Bunnies
Aquan: Misareaux Crabs
Arcana: Misareaux Detectors
Plants: Attohwa Mandragoras
Undead: Attohwa Doomed

The good thing about each of these groups as that they're pretty well clustered, and don't have anything annoying to deal with, like frustrating WSs, damage resistances, or NMs that are always up getting in your way.

Good camps.

Arcana Uleguerand Detectors @ conflux 07
Undead Hounds in Abyssea-Attohwa

So.... Atonement.
It sucks. But is equally awesome at the same time.
Given that elemental belts and gorgets don't work the same for it... Was looking to see what could, if anything, boost its bad damage.
Given that its breath damage...
Oh look, Ardor Pendant and Glassblower's Belt should give a straight +10% to it.
So while figuring out RDM macros, decided to run the test for them on Spirits Within, since it's also breath damage...
Except they did nothing. (Assuming SW doesn't hard cap at total HP, which it might.)

Before testing Atonement on PLD, was just wondering if someone already knew if they boost Atonement damage or not. (+10% on the end should be better than the elemental belt and gorget.)

While they may be technically considered "breath damage" last I knew they, along with Chi Blast are categorized as their own "spirit damage." No, breath damage+ gear does not work on them.

Yeah. After testing it, no change to Atonement. Just like Spirits Within.
Which is lame.
Having that hard cap on damage on Atonement really super sucks.
Oh well.
