It's not something that you make overnight, but it's not like killing 100 mobs for a few firesdays is particularly difficult. Abyssea is your friend.
Very true just the matter of making sure I'm on during fireday lol

I set alarms for it when I did it. If I was around the house and not doing anything and it was darksday, I'd drag my *** over to the comp and do firesday trials.

Well currently one the Flan fire trial....Imma hate that one...eh oh well....to abyssea I go.....
still debatin over what's the best combination of atmas for killing as quick as possible.... Haven't dont abyssea solidly in awhile so sort of slipped my mind which is the best besides RR

Last night i was doing
RR/GH/Apoc
Kind of liked the fact majority of my hits where crits.....
Although RR/SS/Apoc I'd probably get higher #.

As silly as I feel for suggesting this, is it possible for the new super denali body to out perform af3+2? That is a lot of multi-attack plus on a single piece. Too lazy/doing hw atm to actually math it out myself. I will probably do it later.

You should never ever remove RR/GH. The only thing you should be switching out depending on preference/what you're doing is SS vs. Apoc.

Unless there's something amazing I'm missing that you can do with Haste+4%, it still doesn't beat the 10% delay reuction.

Figured as much, I couldn't think of anything, but figured it was worth asking.

In capped haste situations though, it's the best body we've got.

Good luck getting it!

That's what happened with me when I did it. I went from 200 kills to around 15~.
If you don't have anything to do, you should try afking in Zhayolm. That's what I did, and even though the weather forecast said no fire, along came fire and I finished my trial.

Yea I'm currently posted in Halvung atm in that room where like 4 flans are at.....
Since they in the same region...they both should get fire at the same time (if it pops up)

Although my friend says that with his experience that only applies to the older zones where the whitegate zones weather in the same region act a lil different....


Honestly I don't see how people can make two of these :o
cloudy chance of duststorm
cloudy chance of duststorm
cloudy chance of duststorm


Not looking good for a chance for fire lol


Currently 82/200 on Vermin Killer I should of did Dragonflies...unsure what i was thinking.....

I have to say i think im gettin rather far in this....
What might slow me down(other then previous flan trial) is the manticore trial...taking into account if I solo.

I don't think the weather forecaster can predict fire weather for Zhayolm. It only happens when the Volcano erupts, which is a special zone-wide kind of thing separate from the weather.

http://ff11info.com/bazaar/en/weather.php
^ weather is consistent across servers!

I did manticores in Abyssea-Tahrongi, because it was winter at the time. Fire weather is only "common" (lol) during the Vanadielian summer.

Do zones from past/present share the same weather pattern?


I got lucky... I was just finishing vermin killer this fireday and got to tahrongi around 15:00 and a party was there :) Got to 151/250 :)

Alternatively, you can park yourself at Amarok's ??? and beg.

Also i did "Her Father's Legacy" because i was 8/10 seals and did like 5 amarok and nothing, so i do the quest and within 10 minutes i got 2 charis seals XD

simple stuff, kill the dragons @ flux 3 grauber, take pursuer's wing and trade it to the gal at flux 4, and random chance of a seal

I did this for 9/10 of my seals. Only got 1 from the puppy.
Would not recommend using this method to get bulk seals.

Thinking back on it.......
Flame Geode:
50k * 55 = 2,750,000

Ifririte:
10k * 15 = 150,000



Yea might sit at the 85 cap for AWHILE lol

I soloed amarok a few times at 90 or 95 (forget which) to finish my body..the ironclads never put out <_> I think I just brought a friend or two and dualbox to farm the pops from chests and everyone hold a set so we could knock them all out in one go.
