It's just random. I've gotten three procs in a row once on some Scar seal NM, but I've killed harder NMs for 15+ minutes (sometimes have to wait for proc, but I keep SA/TAing) with no procs at all.

And yes, tons of Abyssea NMs that have gone hateless.

Notice how THF got critical hit bonus at 78+? Maybe critical hits play a big part in the procing of TH effectiveness, which is why it would be great to have a WAR in your party to do blood rage and increase this even further.
Or you could use razed ruins.

oh wait, you don't like abyssea, nvm

Crits do not affect it Kylos, and this is easily proven. In Abyssea you can achieve almost 100% Crit hit ratio, and THFs do not have better luck on TH in or out. It is an inherent trait of Sneak Attack and Trick Attack.

Probably helps that SA and TA were specifically mentioned in the update notes, but I wouldn't expect the OP to have the mental capacity to have observed that.

Thanks that saves me going out there later and testing lol :)

Aw what a shame lol, i thought it just made sense, i guess the only way to increase procs is to be in a party, have haste on constantly, SA and TA as much as possible and not kill the mob til you sure you got as much effectiveness as u can.

TH3 trait.
So you only had TH5 intial, and procced up 5 times. Assuming he didn't have +2 feet and treasure hound was not up, this refutes the +4 max proc theory.

OP is a retard and has to broadcast that he blocked someone. Here's a tip no one cares. And don't be butthurt just because tiger got irritated at you when he tried to help you and you keep acting like you are discovering something.

He called me cool by the way when he thought I was Vegetto. Then he deleted it when he found out tiger = vegetto.

First response he gave you pointed you to plenty of information on the subject. And you go paraphrasing here"cool story bro I don't like bg"

Actually reading all of that, it seems like its still under discussion, and there is no post about this in this forum, and i never use BG.

That is what i said, i never said i dont like BG, just that i dont use it, which is why i did not know all the facts about treasure hunter effectiveness, also i felt by putting a post of it here would help other players to understand it further, he made it out like what i was doing was completely wrong.

If he continued to be helpful in the thread like other players, then i would have seen no problem, dasva went off subject too and couldnt understand some things i said, but he didnt call me a moron for it

A lot of topics on BG are 'still under discussion' technically speaking. No one's responded in a month in that thread because most of those conclusions have been accepted by the ffxi community. You might think Tigerwoods is abrasive, but you can't say he didn't contribute to the thread.

Blue?
Red !! increases drop rate on atma and key items (I say increases because they are not 100% drop there is still a small chance of not getting).

Grellow !! increases drop rate on magian armor upgrade items

Blue !! increases drop rate on regular drops.

http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Abyssea

Look at weakness triggering for details.


hmm when you say magian wep upgrats I hope your not talking about things like iron plates and such because tbh I have been working on my plates currently 26/50 and everytime blue is procced 2 plates drop when blue is not proc only 1 plate regardless of TH or other procs I have also seen this with other e wep items ~
