It's more like 18m Gil (even less if you want to take time hunting cheap stacks, bazaar, shouting etc).
But Nynja's general point of it being "very expensive" still stands of course.
Granted that:
1) it's not like buying Regal Necklace would cost you much less
2) you can mix and match Dyna runs (which are usually 2m if not free) AND heroism to find a compromise
3) you can go full-course dyna-runs (but it's gonna take you more time)
Even then, it's not like Regal Neck will magically drop for you on your first three runs. I mean it could, but it could take you months, and if you're a new or returning player it won't probably be "easy" to find a group willing to help you farm it that much.
So in the end a new player will need to balance the cost in gil and time and decide what they want to do.
Whatever their choice, it's likely still gonna be faster than gearing up many other jobs, if you ask me.

MONKEY PAW CURLS
Each job gets a job-specific crystal that can be equipped in main hand when activating their SP1 to double/triple (depending) the duration thereof. The crystal can be further reforged to also double/triple (depending) the duration of their SP2.
Making the crystal requires a job-specific quest that is twice the total effort/gametime of making an escutcheon.
Please look forward to itTM.

Does anyone have a recent lua that works? My lua file got corrupted and I can’t seem to make any of the other luas work after assigning priority to the gears. ?

Thanks for the insight this is something I have always been curious about
Especially if you bring a non yagrush whm to e and g sortie
Ensuna can remove poison on the whole party?
And remove things like bind and paralyze on g? I guess Mims post can spread misinformation about that subject then. What he wanted to say was
"Esuna is should ideally be used for erasables, not -na clearable debuffs. You want to be able to spot remove those with their appropriate spell so that you can abuse Divine Caress. Thank you, that is what I meant by that statement.
In general, paralyze is one of the status effects that contra-indicate using Esuna, unless you have someone who's specific job is casting paralyna on the white mage. Esuna is great for bind, on the other hand.
E and G sortie you would want to be using poisona with divine caress to block reapplications of poison
In general, if Esuna is clearing -na removable debuffs, it's a convenience thing on nuisance debuffs like blind when you are focused on removing something else. |

Esuna can do that, though id be wary on having to use esuna for para or whm getting para'd at all really

Yes. Offensive refers to any Geomancy that affects the mob.
i.e. Indi Wilt is an offensive debuff, it lowers the monster's attack
Geo-Frailty is an offensive debuff, lowers defense
Indi Fury buffs the player - no geomancy nerf
Indi STR buffs the player - no geomancy nerf

When they say offensive buffs -90% or what have you
Offensive refers to debuffs correct?
You could instead do 2 buffs?
Yes, it's what I suggested in my first respond here |

What's the best way to read lord of Mysteries?
I heard there's a few versions out there that I should flat out avoid
And the text version is supposed to be superior to the comic book esque one.
The Novel is best. The comic isn't bad but they have like 1 person doing it so it will take something like 300 years before they can complete it. |

Blows my mind that people will spend so much on those things. I guess people just don't want to do dynamis.
Or people that get stuck into coming other jobs. "Oh, you're building SAM neck? Come whm." etc Sure you can save the random ones you get as personal drops, but that'll take forever to build up. |

Thank you
I'm going to fiddle with this
I tend to think you're on the right track, stacking def down > attack +
Just remember this is only true if geomancy is not nerfed on the target. Especially by 75% |

Considering you can pick up a lanun knife for about 1mil and have +7 rolls almost immediately, I think you're missing about 24 million in heroism's there. Blows my mind that people will spend so much on those things. I guess people just don't want to do dynamis. |

I just saw that Netflix gonna release a brazilian movie called “Caramelo” (Caramel).
It feels like a strong candidate for best movie awards.

If you think SE is going to buff the players to that degree and not apply that to mobs, I have a bridge to sell you. I can see the dev response right now
"Greetings! Regarding increasing the duration of Special Abilities for players, if we were to make this change, we would have to also adjust the duration of these abilities on notorious monsters as well."

We've been doing it for a while. Do you know what " immediately" means?
Do you know what " Almost" means? |

Would take 2-3 runs to cap a Lanun Knife, so 3-5 days (perhaps 4 hours if you use the hourglass thingy).

Considering you can pick up a lanun knife for about 1mil and have +7 rolls almost immediately, Cor is very easy to get into.
Will need JSE and lots of it, then TP sets. But it is immediately useful as a buffer, and the more TP/WS gear you get, the better a dd it gets.
Generally first job recommended to try out. And cors are pretty common. Now bards on the other hand..

Honestly, I personally don't see the appeal of playing as a middle aged fat dude with beard in a character action game. But I also didn't see the appeal of playing as a monkey from the first game and yet the first game sold 20m for whatever reason. Being based on one of the four greatest pieces of Chinese literature probably had something to do with it.
I have no idea what Zhong Kui is based on other than coattail effect. But we will see. |

They should adjust a lot of SPs, mostly just make them longer duration
Triple the duration on Hundred Fists
Double Chainpsell duration
Double duration increase to Mighty Strikes
Triple Perfect Dodge duration
Triple Invincible's duration. When I think about buffing certain player abilities, one thing I always try to take into consideration is if I'm ok with monsters that use those abilities also getting that buff.
In this case, I don't think I'm ok with monsters getting triple duration hundred fists, perfect dodge, and invincible, nor double duration chainspell or mighty strikes. |

Oh and I forgot to mention, the studio that made Disco Elysium also announced a new game in GC25. However, since some of the old core members left the team, whether this new game can come close to the greatness of DE or not is a big question.
I hope they succeed though. I desperately need another Disco Elysium-like in life!

I was about to say that, from a certain point of view, it might be quicker to buy the +1 version of Rostam and augment it for a +7 roll, compared to getting a group of friends and farming Ou pops over and over and over and over until it finally decides to drop regal necklace.
Not like you se Ou mercs often anymore either. If we were talking about a few years ago it would be different but nowadays... eh, I feel Lanun might be a better option.
But still, OVERALL I think Melliny's suggestion stands.
All jobs require some time to gear up, all of them. WAR probably requires less gear/time/stuff than a lot of the other DDs and WAR nowadays is wanted pretty much in every type of content and you can reach the minimum level of efficiency pretty early.
I'd say the same thing about COR, required pretty much everywhere. Now COR requires a lot of gear, but if you consider the bare minimum (+7 roll, increased roll range, a couple of important JSE in its 99 version, some basic melee gear to TP with Kaja Sword) it's likely way more affordable and quicker to gear up compared to, say, BRD.

The chart is highly accurate, and I would agree it isn’t recommendable to advise a new player to start with ninja as their first job. The most accessible melee job to a newer player is easily warrior. While there is a dramatic difference between an elite warrior and a new warrior, that’s going to hold true for every job. At its baseline warrior is easier to gear for and performs at a much higher floor level than nearly any other melee, and there are almost no events people won’t take a warrior to. Get 5/5 sakpata for starters, pick up negling, get your accessories and capes and you have a more functional base line than any other dps.
As for the job that’s universally brought to everything under every circumstances, that’s be Corsair. Unlike bard you don’t need a ton of Remas to play it. Get your +7 roll neck for starters, work toward your +8 rostam, get your naegling, and build a tp bonus gun. One of the most difficult things when starting a new character as cor is actually your tp set, since it’s primarily malignance and that can take some time to farm. It also has some more expensive and time intensive pieces it needs to deal damage effectively. But everyone wants one so getting help from friends to gear it shouldn’t be too much of an ask.
While I agree with mostly everything, Sakpata is gated behind 40+ days and even doing few Ou's per week, it took me like 3 weeks to get Regal Necklace and I'm still 0/20+ on Gem, so it might be hard for new player to get it. |
