Eh, anyone who isn't making Koga/Ryuno is (hopefully) doing it for shinies anyway. I'm not going to sit here and pretend I don't want a banana sword.

On my alt im doing lure of the wildcat in jeuno and sagheera keeps asking him to upgrade relic gear (even though he wasnt wearing any nor did he have any yet when i talked to her).

Now she only spams that nonsense and wont give him the badge flash :< Am i SOL until i craft him a relic +1?

Can you learn Cannonball in Abyssea?

Don't think so.

Ah, Granite Borer can use it. I was confused because the Wamouracampa wiki page has a check for Abyssea next to the spell.

I suppose I can't put off learning spells in Mount Z forever.

making space....

does a Zahak's male has any use for any job?

Honestly it's such a convenient zone that I wouldn't go anywhere else. The island has puddings (Amplification/Amorphic Spikes), dahaks (Body Slam), wamouracampa (Cannonball/Thermal Pulse), and Wamoura (Exuviation) all within a few hundred yalms of each other. Then you have trolls, clusters, and apkallu (plus more puddings/wamoura/wamouracampa) all by the staging point for another four spells.

no

Zahak's male, lol.

As always, the help is much appreciated guys! :D I assume Relics are the way for most jobs then? Aside from SAM/DRG/PUP and maybe BST?

Yeah, I just hate the zone. It's not as bad now at 99, but it's one of my least favorite zones still.

woops lol


thx inv +1 yay


what about a Prosilio belt? Cant remember what job i use or used it D:

Not really, no.

MNK - varies
WAR - Ukon, situationally Ragnarok
WHM - Mjollnir
BLM - lol
THF - I believe Mandau generally wins.
PLD - Almace
DRK - generally Ragnarok
BRD - Daurdabla, but the two work well together
RNG - Anni
SMN - lol
NIN - Kannagi

Pretty much
edit: ftfy
I would 99 all my empyreans before I touched a mythic

Ahh, alrighty :D Apologies for what're likely to be silly questions, just trying to work out which job/s I want to gear up with what when I finish levelling them!

Fairly certain there's no movement speed that stacks with Flee. I could be wrong though. I thought it just made your speed a static 200%.

This guy is correct. The only way to break 200% is to use hacks.

Edit: Nvm, talked a gm who said it was a technical issues. They moved the character for me >:D

I don't have a lot of experience server transferring, so I'm not 100% familiar with the specifics, but I'm wondering what would be the fastest way to transfer gil to another server and bring an item back.

I'm interested in purchasing hexed -1 gear cross-server (since nobody *** makes it here) and I'm wondering if the fastest it can take is three months, or if there is another, faster way to go about doing it.

I was thinking send a mule with gil over to the server with the item, and simultaneously create another character there. Do the trade, and wait 3 months? This would cost $50?

Can someone with knowledge on the topic please inform me?

Thanks!

There's a server where people make Hexed-1 stuff!?

So got 2 TP sets for my drg and cant decided which to use.

5 hit capped haste with /sam.


Capped haste more Multihit 6 hit with /sam.


Was thinking top one for /sam and bottom one for anything i go /war for not that im on my drg that much.

When you server transfer, you get the option to transfer multiple characters at once to any different worlds. The main idea is to:
1) Have character Y with gil on original server.
2) Make character X on server with HQ.
3) Make an agreement with the person you're buying from (more on this later) - more for their safety than yours (they can GM you if you don't come through).
4) Have crafter trade character X whatever you're buying.
5) Log off and perform server transfers. Again, you can transfer multiple characters at once. Transfer character Y to to crafter's server with the gil to pay, and transfer character x back to your original server.

If all goes through well, both characters will transfer at once and you'll end up with your hq piece back on your own server and the character with gil on the crafters server. However, this means that someone (who you probably don't know) has to trade you a really expensive piece of gear w/o any gil first, and needs to take your word that you're going to complete the server xfer and pay. Again, if there's an agreement in game and you don't follow through, you can be GM'd. It's a bit of an uncomfortable situation for some people to be in, so either sticking it out 90 days or using 2 accounts might have to be the way to go.

(Hope I explained that so it makes sense!)

You're passing the delay reduction cap without the boomerang, yeah. You're benefiting from the Dual Wield whenever your Haste/Haste Samba is down, though, for what it's worth.

With sub job Haste Samba, you are not hitting cap unless there is something I am missing. If you wanted to speed it up, you could have the SCH cast haste on you and use a better offhand dagger.

Edit: Was calculating with DW2 not DW3. On that note, you can ditch the boomerang and Suppanomimi if you wanted for something better.

He has the SCH locked for perma-embrava. Hasting would risk Rebrava.

Fair enough. Can still switch daggers after haste procs. Not gonna be hurting for TP with Embrava.
