I play whatever suits my fancy or can keep me distracted. Between doctors, vacation, House-Hunting, water drinking, designing a light exercise regimen, etc... There hasn't been much time for anything.
Nins!?! No blu or blm strat!?! Blashpemy. ANyways back for now lol
I used to BLM burn it until every time I went we'd fail(more often than not on my orb) for one reason or another.
As for BLU... After the last 3 attempts at using BLU, I decided that I would never do it again... EVER!
Is it truly difficult to face away from an enemy? Or cast a quick spell to claim your eye before it nearly destroys the RDM? There's only so much I can do as a single NIN damnit!
Typically i've done UO with a 2x NIN and RDM combo. However, I have seen successful RDM & 2x BST, and RDM BLU BST, as well as straight out manaburn. However, I am most comfortable with the former of them all.
Hmmm seems wikis whole conserve mp kicks in on precast is all wrong.
Or I have really horrible luck.
Since I had +10 on precasting doing about 14 cure IIIs and 7 cure Is to get me from full to 0 mp 4 times over and not a single proc and I should've had like 8 lol

I've tried Uo on my bst a few times and died cause my pet would get para and couldn't move how did you get around this?
I've actually never done it with ninjas. I kinda like blms because any idiot can hit a couple of nukes. Well except that one blm who kept thinking curagaing and stuff was better lol. I love blu because well ***can damn near headbutt lock them and bludgeon does massive dmg
I went nin/blm, friend was blu/nin, and kiter was rdm/nin.

I honestly don't recall, as I was typically the kiting RDM and never had a chance to ask or examine the strategy the BSTs took, but from what I recall it was done with a thin veil of hate between two pets, and probably dumb luck to go in our favor.
The other time was with one BST and a BLU to head butt stun, but sadly is only as effective as the BLU's timing.

I would think conserve MP would factor in as the spell finishes casting rather than being calculated just as it was triggered for activation.
So would I but wiki said so... and if it were true it would be crazy. I mean pre-cast in like 30 or so consere mp on top of trait then switch to potency. That would total rule if it worked. But it once and I even just straight casted without switching and it proc'd after only like 7-8 cast

Not sure if I am remembering right but I think bst would smn wait on recast then go and engage and get hate on the 2 minis then switch targets and gang up on one.
At what point does Rajas Ring beat the Kusha/Lava set? When it's paired with something as simple as Ecphoria Ring? When it's paired with a Toreador's Ring?
I'm a 65PLD/DNC with this setup. Doesn't the attack of the set beat the STR (4STR at my current level)? Store TP is pointless when I'm riding 300TP most of the time (I do WS from time to time, but survivability > 150 damage at 300% TP).
14acc and 6att seems like something either my 65PLD or 54DNC(once 55) could use.
Rajas alone won't do much for you if you're PLD/DNC with that; you need 6 more STP after Rajas to hit an 8hit build.
Honestly, if all you're using it for is campaign, I wouldn't even bother doing Lav/Kus ring. When you start to get serious (at 70+, I mean to say) on PLD and if you decide to campaign a lot, you'll be wearing Jelly/Patronus/Terror Shield to get -25% damage anyways. But outside of campaign, after Atonement, Rajas instantly drops you down from a 17 to a 16hit build with Joyous, which means Atonement can come 3.7 seconds quicker (without haste); it may not sound like a lot, but (without double attack factored in), but that means you output 750 DMG about 6% faster than you would have otherwise. In the long run, this comes out to a hell of a lot as you add more.
At that point, Toreador's for the ACC; Rajas for the STP. I can't give you exact ***because I'm exhausted and have to go weed the garden :X
Edit: I often wonder why you ask such questions if you answer them during the question o.O; if you're at 300 TP then there's no need for STP. There's no need for massive ACC on campaign mobs either, though.
Morning alllllll I unlocked DRK, PUP and COR last night (COR was a bitttchhh, DRK took forever and PUP wasn't bad) today, i spam West Saru in hopes for a lvl5/6ish Rare/Ex Gun =D
I leveled my dnc from 13 to 24 /trollface
nice
today i'm getting DRK then DRG to 10
tomorrow PUP and COR (depends if i get the rare/ex gun for COR... i think it's a gun o.o)

To make sure I'm not thinking crazy things. I do my best to figure things out on my own, then ask the questions for clarification.
Also, I'm a PLD... I can eat sushi, use quickstep, load up on acc, and still miss the fortifications.
Krizz, the simple answer is that Rajas will win in any situation you're not in a party and not fighting VT or higher. Campaign mobs are roughly LV70 so you won't need to sacrific Rajas to get more ACC.
The complicated answer is that Rajas with even an ACC+5 ring will generally always still beat Lava's/Kusha's, except for, I think, on MNK. Rajas gets you to your next WS one attack round faster with nearly any weapon type, so assuming you don't miss more than x% of your attacks, you'll generally be getting TP faster even without an ACC ring. That, and Rajas also increases STR for higher per-hit damage, DEX for higher ACC and crit rate, and Subtle Blow which is always good when solo.
tl;dr: Rajas alone will generally beat Lava's/Kusha's on anything lower than VT.

Since we all can't be on the same linkshell in game, this can be our cross server linkshell thread.
Like most linkshells, it can be pretty dead at times. Other times it's full of intense conversations about either rl, gear, goals, pokemon or anything else you want to contribute.
We can cover any sort of topic at all, within reason of the forum rules. No real main topic, just a bunch of FFXIAH friends/people coming on and discussing random things.
Yeah Chuu. Bringing you up to speed, Ludoggy is the LS pedophile. I'm the fountain of random and useless knowledge that makes you go "Hrm" with the occasional side of "holy shit he said what?"
Kungfu is the LS nutjob, spouting super random things that are usually sexist, until Savvy or Alyria comes into the room. Then he's a classic case of sexual harrassment. Rumaha is also true to the second part; we're wondering about his sexuality though.
Daj is Ludoggy's gay lover. Not much else is known about this Asuran. Tairo is kinda new, but since is a female and Alyria's lesbian lover, she fit right in real quick.
Celene(F) and Rowland(M) are more of the shyer members, but often say things that are witty, have a good pun and sometimes cause three page discussions. Celene hates when people hit on her. It doesn't stop them from trying.
Krizz is just social and likes to kill time here during work Tbest is about the same, except tends to be a douche to guys and affectionate toward girls.
Alyria is the most social female, gets groped a lot without provoking it by others, and Tairo ends up stabbing people for it. Cai is just a barrel of lols, I might be gay for him. If I wasn't straight.
Not sure about Citag, s/he's new. Kiriyu is just an in-out kinda person. Says one thing every three days that every guy makes a big fuss over. Ludoggy gets really defensive since she's asian and underage (might be 18 now).
Artem is the wayward soul that makes you ponder the meaning of life by constantly reminding us life can suck. But he deals, and so do we. About the same for Savannah, except people are more "AWH!" to her because of a vagina involved.
Dasva is the ex military man (as is Krizz but this doesn't apply to him) who hates the world and plots a way to destroy most of it.
Number2 is kinda like a mix between Cai and I; never bashes, likes to laugh and has odd avatars. His current suits a lot of the convos this LS gets into. Barti is most well known for his moustache. He gives mousatche rides for a fee. I'm missing a few people but whatever. CARRY ON!
Luelle Smells.
