It would be very nice when you hit an ITG chest that, any gear from a thud/noise gets overwritten with an ITG slot.

From what I've seen in this thread is that Escha/low tier HTBF items are way overtuned to drop..

Anime's still good. You just have to be a little more discerning nowadays since you have readier access to more of it :)

In my personal experience I have found steam jacket and analyzer to be completely unnecessary. Also did not notice any damage increase using tension spring so I opted not.

I've run it enough to clear out rewards multiple times when this Ambu comes up, and I don't ever need that "insurance". If you are properly geared and have appropriate attachments, you shouldn't be dropping to dangerous HP levels even with Chainspell and Kaustra. Oil may be cheap, but getting smacked with Quenching Hammer because you have to move well into range to use Repair is risky. Mistime that, and you ruin your run.


Then don't use the ring if you don't want to? I just called it out because this item did not even exist the last time this Ambu came along, it's fairly easy to overlook, and it's a major upgrade over the next best ring option (10% automaton damage increase on a ring is no joke). And it's free in gil cost, for the relatively minor inconvenience of temporarily not using another TVR ring for part of a week.

If that's appealing to someone reading this, cool. If you're fine without it, also cool. You aren't everyone, and players who are not you might not have this "on farm" yet and might appreciate the suggestion. And some people who DO have it down might also be interested in using a massive upgrade in the ring slot to decrease their kill times.

Absolutely, you don't need this ring to win the fight. Nor do you need ML or lots of other recommended/BiS items like Xiucoatl, perfect Taeon augments, whatever. But this is FFXI, since when was highlighting a piece of objectively BiS gear for a particular purpose something unusual?


Shouldn't need to spam healing items, but kill speed does go WAY down without OD. If you want to spend the majority of a 30min time limit whittling away a frog's HP, go for it. But even without Wild Card, you'll probably spend less time overall by just AFKing until Overdrive is back, then doing the fight in 3min instead of 25. Especially so if you have a Cutting Cards or two available.

If going without OD, two PUPs skillchaining does speed things up a bit. I recall doing that occasionally in past years as a filler run to wait on SP1 being back for the next. But honestly, I find it a better use of my time to go make a sandwich instead of actively engaging with a dumb frog.

Go reset 2hr in MMM / Abyssea???

Is PUP able to take this thing down without OD?

If so, I assume the plan is to buy a bunch of Dawn Mulaum's and spam as necessary?

Just looking for a way to farm while waiting on OD downtime.

Has anyone used PUP tank for mage sortie strats?

If so, are you setting up the maton as a bruiser tank and chaining with the scholar, or full DT tank and stealing the matons TP to prevent it from chaining when possible?

Any tips and tricks would be greatly appreciated.

Unless Felgar screwed up and the ITG was an item he already has and the Zendik came from LT.

It could be tied to content level though. AA's are CL140, WoC / Reisen HELM's are CL150

The pricing/performance of the fallout 4 anniversary edition is a disaster. 59.99 for the complete edition and a 150 mod pack. Or 39.99 if you have the base game. Bug infested is an added bonus. No one asked for this.

Right, was being lazy when I said any. Any physical that doesnt already reach the 8 hit cap.

Well. DA does literally nothing for magical or ranged, so not any ws, no. Same with Asuran Fists. Can't go over 8 hits.

Would it be BiS if buff is up then for any WS just because it would ensure a DA proc? Thanks for indulging the foolish questions.

So the lower tier escha pieces are still in Thud while the HELM drops in Reisenjima remain in Loud Thud?

Its definitely not "all of the escha gear"

I've seen the following under Thud: Pursuer Cuffs/Doublet, Nibiru Harp, Anahera Sword (Ru'Aun AAEV)

Yes but the first hit of Zesho is like 35 times stronger than each of the others.

Its stupid, but its less stupid than a random system that is 25% chance every time.

Under your smart system:
Chest 1 is 25% chance, if you didnt hit the bonus
Chest 2 is 25% chance, if you didnt hit the bonus
Chest 3 is 25% chance, if you didnt hit the bonus
Chest 4 is 25% chance, if you didnt hit the bonus

Under this stupid system:
Chest 1 is 25% chance, if you didnt hit the bonus
Chest 2 is 33% chance, if you didnt hit the bonus
Chest 3 is 50% chance, if you didnt hit the bonus
Chest 4 is 100% chance, you will hit the bonus

I never really thought about multi attack much in WS, I think I assumed it would work like this: Zesho Meppo is a 4 hit. So it would be 4 from main hand then 5th from offhand? If using 100% DA would it be 4 hits + 1 DA for MH then OH + 1 DA = 7 hits? Am i thinking about this all wrong? Thanks.

That's still a stupid system... I understand that they need to keep people subbed. However I think a random chance clearing a floor and 100% from any chest with a weekly cap of 5 would have been much better and probably have kept me subbed a bit longer. 1 to 2 climbs a week are fine for me but 5 no chance it's super boring and doing 1 to 2 climbs per week will take a very long time to r30 my first accessory.

Sounds like you should just be trying coffer 1-2-3-4 instead of always opening the same one.

Those races are kinda about luck. But yes, receptivity is the second most important stat after strength. Also I don't think there's a way to tell where you're at maze-wise other than the titles available from the npc.

Can confirm.

Also I suspect we're going about this the wrong way, maybe the people with rank 9 should be describing what content they feel they're missing?

I think I was rank 7 before update (been a while since I checked) I'm rank 8 now.

Done:
All missions
All jobs mastered, all AF quests.
decent chunk of titles from NM and VD HTB clears. (missing some though).
110 WW with stage 3 shield, all subcrafts 70, fishing 67 synergy 5
Max Fame in all areas of the game (I think)
Over 1k RoEs
Pretty high percentage of all the quests given in the various towns but I'm sure there's some I have not done.
I have at least 1 ultimate weapon of each type (but only stage 2 prime)

Missing:
some NM titles (notably 3 sortie bosses, Tumult curator, v25 oddy clears, but there's a few older ones too, a few VD clears on HTB)
Some quests, a few RoEs, some fishing/synergy levels, stage 4 shield.
stage3+ prime.
I've done probably minimal monstrosity and chocobo stuff and MMM.

Its probably some simple formula (similar to the server ranking o this site):
number of job levels + number of craft levels * 2 + number of RoEs complete * 3 + number of titles * 4

(totally made up and we still don't know what limits would be or the exact weighting between different different things. And their might be anchor points (i.e. limit breaks) or stuff like missions or certain titles that represent content clear that are worth more if not done.

Is there a way we can just count the number of titles we have?

Yes that appears to be how the system works, aside from the maintenance reset bit.

Most activities in FFXI are extremely repetititve but activities like the old version of fishing or chocobo digging are 100% designed around bots. You can tell that there went zero effort into them and no one in the design process asked themself whether this is fun or not.

Stuff like this is fine to occupy the OCD no lifers (actually it's not fine, it's sinister) and botters as long as no real rewards are attached to them. The fact that they now force it on everyone for BiS rewards is just evil.

The most two interesting items of this update, Hoxne Ampulla and Earring, primarily seem to cater towards players who take shortcuts and automate.

It's sad.

Pinged my guy, dug into this - craft skills are sent in 0x62 when you zone, and there's no Chocobo Digging field in there anymore that I can tell. Couple of paddings, value 65535, bunch of unknowns, value 0, but nothing with values between those two and my skill is not 0 so it's seemingly not sending it at all anymore.
