More than one way to skin a cat. Wasn't crapping on other builds, just showing where the AF legs/feet have use, ymmv

The fact that they changed:
Shortens magic recast time for spirits
into
Decreases Elemental Magic recast delay
is extra egregious because that changed the meaning so much it no longer actually makes sense for what it does. Anyone reading that would rightly suspect that it decreases elemental magic recast time, when it's actually elemental SUMMON recast time.
Yes, they should have copy pasted.
That said, there's really no way that anyone would be confused by this. If you're upgrading to +4 then you would already have seen the correct description on earlier versions.
Now if only we could make spirit recast meaningful enough to be upset about it... |

ItemSet 399723
I use this for TP set. 100% datk with merits. 48% PDT, 38% MDT
Macro into a full Sakpata's based set if I actually need the MEVA (don't really, often).
Haven't gotten around to Kalunga clears/RP yet, so my Sakpatas is all R15 or less, sadly.

The overall event design seems very accessible and player-friendly so far. If players respond well, maybe the dev team will consider opening up Sheol A/B/C or even Sortie to alliances at some point.
Omen was party only at first too, so it's not out of the question, just didn't seem likely to happen with the dev team so out of touch. Between the MOGB kupons and iLimbus design it feels like they may be more aligned with players now.

Look on the bright side, more easy to get going content for solo, new and returning players is a win for everyone. Including some vets too. The same pieces getting better isn't bad, my RDM is happy to keep ignoring those AF boots.

just spent 20 min writing out some angry rant then did the whole go take some meds and come back... had me rolling, could not let it go to waste.
Threw it in the spoiler.... someone get me that image of Grandpa Simpson yelling at a cloud
As someone who has returned after a long long hiatus, i am glad to see the same whining about content updates have not changed in the last 15 years.
To everyone complaining about the stats. Be HAPPY they are still giving Content. It might not be the best content and it might not change much for many, but what its providing is more than you had before.
Look at how many MMO's out there are still alive after 5, 10, 15 years.
You have a team, who is trying to make an impact on a spaghetti code of a game. It's not going to be an overnight change.
They are both trying to keep with the spirit of the game, the grind the exploration, the trial and error, and so on and so forth.
The way you are all complaining about small stat boosts and this and that, it seems to me you want every damn item to be god teir.
Here have a GK with atacks 2-5 times 500 acc 500 str 500 FTP 300 Parry Skill - Enhance Zanshin to 100% crit for 1000% damage.
RING of WHINE - DT -200% you get hit and you heal your party.
get over youselfs. shits been like this since OG release Spend 6 weeks in Sky just to get a small upgrade because you got a lucky craft to HQ a Cursed item over the NQ you put 2 months into getting.
BE HAPPY YOU HAVE DEVS THAT WANT TO TRY TO MAKE MORE OF IT.

I will assume you mean FFXI community when you say "the community"
The community of this forum specifically, in this case.
I made an argument for something I thought was an issue, if people disagree and like it then they can keep doing it as it is.
I argued they should remove the private server wiki pages from bgwiki, they decided they wanted to keep them and that was that. They are still there. I argued they should remove the private server sections from this forum, Rooks decided it was too much effort to change it so they stayed (and fair enough, he doesn't have to do anything).
I can't make people do anything, I'm just making an argument for it. |

but where did they hint at +5 Latest hint: their release notes. The known issues had three pieces of +5 gear as typos. The number of typos in the gear is incredible, though.
Pummeler's Calligae is missing the "+4" completely. This doesn't mean they are reworking +0 gear.
Strings are strange all over the place. Words are wrong, formatting is off. I usually don't bother to ***on SE for bad QA but this really is comical. It's like they didn't bother to have person #2 even check the strings file before straight to release. All of this is visible right at the NPC who shows you the gear.
All they had to do was copy/paste the existing stuff and tweak a few numbers. The fact that they changed:
Shortens magic recast time for spirits
into
Decreases Elemental Magic recast delay
is extra egregious because that changed the meaning so much it no longer actually makes sense for what it does. Anyone reading that would rightly suspect that it decreases elemental magic recast time, when it's actually elemental SUMMON recast time. |

I suppose some people changed with Boii body but I haven't for Sheol C where you are arguably benefitting from the PDL on Sakpata.
I use this as "base set":
sets.engaged = {
ammo="Coiste Bodhar",
head="Sakpata's Helm", --7%
body="Sakpata's Plate", --10%
hands="Sakpata's Gauntlets", --8%
legs="Boi Cuisses +3",
feet="Sakpata's Leggings", --6%
neck="War. Beads +2",
waist="Ioskeha Belt +1",
left_ear="Schere Earring",
right_ear="Boii Earring +1",
left_ring="Niqmaddu Ring",
right_ring="Defending Ring", --10%
back={ name="Cichol's Mantle", augments={'DEX+20','Accuracy+20 Attack+20','Accuracy+10','"Dbl.Atk."+10','Damage taken-5%',}}, --5%
} --46%
46% DT (don't do PDT on any of my jobs anymore, my preference) but with +27% PDL over that set. Mostly talking about single wielding too, and does that set use Laphria DA for 100%? |

I found this on SE#1, but it says "There is nothing out of the ordinary here." I'm going to try killing mobs to see if it becomes a 3k.
Just filling up the bar on SE#1 did not let me get this.
I then proceeded to kill each type of mob in SE
When that didn't work, I killed everything that looked different.
None of these worked, so I warped out to do some work. |

All this talk about how the game needs more mystery and uncertainty is how we got galka poo systems like sortie earring RNG.
Will the Old case be something worth keeping, or vendor trash?
Which job you don't play will your next +2 be for?
What secret formula ensures that other people in your group with no use for them get the earrings you want?
Such mystery! Surely players will love it!
that's not even remotely the same thing. come on now.
I mean, it's randomly variable gear from a mystery box. Y'know, to preserve the excitement of seeing something unknown drop, and all that other jazz.
It's exactly that kind of thing, and most players loathe it. |

Return of Pummeler's legs/feet. With a vengeance.
They never left my base sets. Base sets = glass cannon? |

I found this on SE#1, but it says "There is nothing out of the ordinary here." I'm going to try killing mobs to see if it becomes a 3k. That's exactly what it looks like. When I checked mine on NW #1, I hadn't killed anything in that zone yet (I had done like 3 other wings already, though). |

Sylph.Timepassesbye said: »I'm confused, I got the keys on all 7 floors, at the same level, but the chest won't open. do you need to get all 7 keys in one run? You need all the sectors, not just those 7.
Decent summary here: https://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/58447/limbus-2025
But Apollyon has 18 KIs. Temenos has 25. |

Do you remember where you found the ??? Mine was in NW #1 kinda on the left side.
I never saw another one. I so wanna know spawn conditions / cadence /etc.
It was on Apollyon SE#4, next to the Swirling Vortex on the South side. |

How did you farm the points? chest giving 3k and pages in central giving 340, Western given 170 per page
I had enough points just going through the one full time. Nothing special, except finding a single ??? that gave 3k points. Do you remember where you found the ??? Mine was in NW #1 kinda on the left side.

Messing with the ranged slot and food also changes how much magic evasion and SIRD you have on PLD. Losing burtgang is a significant enmity loss in a lot of fights too where you don't have a subjob.
Would be interested in seeing what functional sets you come up with not just what the theoretical max is
The interesting question is this:
Does an intimidate proc also nullify enmity loss? I would assume so.
If you factor that in, at say a 25% proc rate, you are also nullifying 25% of the effects that would've caused enmity loss. |

Quote: Nukumi/Founder - gives multiplier to DT and damage equal to 50% of killer effects % rounded down
The NM reduction is separate per step. KI traits, KI from gear, circle effects etc. For gear it's 50%.
Food is separate and presumably halved, according to that thread. |

How do I open the chest in Temenos N?
I have Tem. N-F1 through 7, but the box still wont open. You need all 25 of the Temenos items then you can open any Temenos chest. you are only 7/25 of your way there, enjoy the grind. |

So, I'm getting way too much latency in Limbus zones to actually work on getting access to any of this stuff (I literally counted ten seconds between selecting a trust from menu and getting the "starts casting" message for it at one point), which means I need to ask the people who actually have unlocked access to the furnaces already:
Does the relic gear still have the augments that enhance job abilities? Because I don't see that in the datamined stuff, and if that somehow disappeared here that is actually a huge downgrade for a number of pieces.

You keep your Verification Key when you upgrade and it is almost instant, no waiting an in-game day.
How did you farm the points? chest giving 3k and pages in central giving 340, Western given 170 per page I got 10-12k (random per char) in one run this morning. Check limbus thread for better details. |

What's sad is this could have beaten Nyame head R30 if they had the inclination to add attack to it. This +4 has 1% more WSD, 7 more STR, 13 more DEX, 8 more VIT, and 14 more AGI, whereas Nyame R30 has +75 more attack. This is assuming it's not easy to hit attack cap on NIN.
head already has heavy competition just by virtue of mpaca hat being there to be fair, potential +5 could easily clear it otherwise |

You can make it work everywhere by changing the config.xml in packetflow's plugin folder, it's a simple true/false operator. Change it to false and it will work everywhere.
