You're wrong and I hate you.

With 80 spell points, what are you setting up now? :P
Jeanpaul, not Suteru.
Already fixed, was a reply posted from wrong section.

Spoken like a True Blue Mage ! HP of mobs in SR is most definitely NOT scaled to match the # of ppl in the event - I tried it solo (with trusts) on BLU and it was pretty slow going. Darrculin took around 10 mins to kill, and then I died to AoE from Teodor
I lockstyle double Nibirus with relic armor, the colors are perfect and I like the way Nibirus look. But I get the appeal of Kilijs.
I lockstyle almost full Mavi (don't do helms) with dual Concoridia. I've had quite a number of people comment of just how "BLU" I look lol.

My lockstyle is:
Adhemar Bonnet Relic Body Adhemar Wristbands Homam Pants Serpentes Boots Dual Nibiru Blades I look mad BLU. My face when I realized that the stupid gold vs blue dress ordeal already happened in the form of purple vs blue arguments in FFXI a long time ago in a galaxy far far away...
Even better, it happened twice thanks to grellow !!
I have several lockstyles, because even the most fabulous outfit gets boring if you wear it every day.
Lawl, fashion talks.
So is the final 2100 really just a 1 hr JA time reduction? There's no other change you get at that point? I heard you get stars above ur head or something once u hit master. Any blus done the final RoV fight? I heard some having trouble with it. Loving the new increase in blue points and they finally made Gyve trousers not have suck @$$ magic evasion so they are now good for MDT sets! New Dominion dragon gives acc ++ vorseal just fyi. Did some SR but no "new" drops but with 1550ish jp and capped on CP bonuses aside from new RoV one and any you get from monster rearing I got like 35k cp with the Trizek ring. Pretty nice addition especially if you have bad luck with drops/augs. Please share any info regarding SR drops and/or max JP on blu. I got Herculean feet with an additional +2 TA and 28 accuracy.
Thinking I may have found my new TP feet. Also, I lockstyle with no hat, Adhemar body, Adehmar hands, two Nibiru swords, Samnuha pants, and the feet you get off Garuda, they're tall black boots. It looks decent. Re: final fight What NM dropped the feet, if you don't mind me asking?
Those are definitely one of the better pieces of the set. Gah I can't remember, I'm horrible.
I want to say it was the corse, but that could be 100% wrong. I was just happy to get them. I'll check him out, thanks.
Got the pants from Selkit, and no matter what I do to them, I just can't see them coming even close to Samnuha. Good news is you can get some damn high accuracy (30 being the highest so far) and hopefully some TA to make them a solid accuracy piece. Unless the max TA on them is +5 or something, Samnuha still reign supreme, though. did we get any new spells ? >.> Sorry was busy all day.
Final boss was very difficult when I went in without knowing what I was doing...
Once I changed things up, it became very easy... BLU/WAR, DD setup Apururu, Amchuchu, Selh'teus, Koru-Moru, Qultada, Cherukki... RoV boss spams AoE, so Selh'teus is really nice here. Run away from the boss when his "gem" glows red. Edit: We didn't get any new spells this update. Just killed final boss. Wasn't solo did with pld,blu,blu,blu, Arciela II, Apururu. Fight wasn't too bad. He started healing from physical around 60% but stopped and didn't do it again. Lots of conal/aoe dmg and debuffs. Apururu lucky didn't die when she converted but ran outta mp later in the fight. Saw Arciela II trust summoned a Naakual which was pretty cool but she ended up with negative damage on the parse cause she used dark element.
I soloed on Blu with August, Arciela, KingofHearts, Ulmia and Apururu. August was basically a waste of time, only NPCs that survived were Arci, King and Apu. When he went to physical absorb mode, I turned and used Diffusion Ray until it wore off, then went back to swords. Used Magic Fruit and an AoE heal to help keep myself and everyone else up when things got hairy. Took a little while but rarely was in any real danger. Carry your nuke gear and clubs on you so you can still do damage when it starts absorbing physical. It did it twice for me.
I am at work and i dont have access to a spreadsheet, could someone please please tell me what the new almace looks like compared to our options? excluding the reisenjima sword of course, we dont know what we can get on it yet.
My eyeballing powers make me believe i will be using almace again, and maybe even on the mainhand too! Edit: spelling, writing from my phone Also, the last fight is an easy solo with seltheus and mage support, koru moru for refresh on your whm trust and a tank so you dont get hit with some of the moves. |
