Random Question Thread (FFXI Related)

Back again please with few more questions about Mboze RP if you will allow.

I want to see how BLU will do and wanted to ask about spell set and maybe a melee set.

This is spell set i used for V25 clear but i wasnt engaged so not sure if the spell lineup is still best.
Any spells i should change around?

For TP set I was thinking:Or would move Nyame/etc be better over Malignance?

Went with friends last night as DRK and it worked alright but the SP reset needed and possible bad luck kinda stunk. Took some PUGs but they didnt do great. So just trying to figure out best way with jobs we have. No RUN i think my BST could land ooze if we had RUN but not sure. Anyway thanks again and Happy Friday the 13th!

Use ClosetCleaner it will cross check everything in your inventory with everything in your gearswaps and creates a text file letting you know how much everything is used.

I always find a insect wing (or some junk) hiding somewhere and a few pieces of gear that go unused. It'll also catch typos in gearswap.

This set isn't haste capped. Swap Brutal to Alabaster or use Malignance Tights. Also, I'd use Thibron over Sakpata's sword if you're getting some form of accuracy buff (sushi, songs). The survival aspect of Sakpata's is great, but the DPS difference is massive. If your objective is to deal damage as fast as possible, Thibron for sure. I'd also sooner drop Bathy Choker +1 and use JSE+2 neck instead for the accuracy and STP. Use Peiste Belt +1 if you're dead set on using Gleti's Breeches. You'll still need Alabaster Earring.


That spell set is all over the place. I would just equip DD spells (Zahak Reborn list) and slot in Feather Tickle, Reaving Wind, Silent Storm, Magic Barrier*, Saline Coat*, and one healing spell (Magic Fruit or White Wind), slowly removing less essential DD spells for utility, based on what you want to do during fight. Silent Storm might not land on it's own without Nitro Wind Threnody, so maybe Chaotic Eye/Auroral Drape to save points. Can drop stuff like Sinker Drill/Paralyzing Triad etc. Glutinous Dart for more HP might be helpful if you have extra points. Cimicine Discharge or Embalming Earth for slow could work too, if you can land it.

You'll need a BRD to Nitro Wind Threnody so Silent Storm can land though. That will keep Mboze casting, but it has the Occult Acumen trait, so you might not want that either. Nocturne might be better, you'd have to see for yourself which one prevents the most TP for it.

The BRD probably wants to Earth Threnody and try to land Elegy, but Mboze is Earth based, so that may not land on him. If he does get Earth Threnody on, you can try to stack Slow on top of Elegy. But you would need to be fast since Nitro could wear off and you won't land Elegy on Mboze.
