Now who was that moron that was trying to refute EVA being useless?
Hes got double mambo, at minimum of 90 in Visible gear, and I would assume AT LEAST 17 skill and possible over 20 extra total, thats a ***load.
You weren't there for the argument. Someone was insinuating that EVA gear isn't worth using on MNK/NIN soloing a VT mob, which, on retrospect, was already a stupid argument for them to make before requiring screenshot proof. What else would you wear with shadows up when you're solo?
MNK has about 13 (I think) EVA less, at 75. Counter and guard more than make up for that.
Guard is absolute ***and should never be considered for anything but lulz
Not at all. Guard is not shield. The proc rate is horrible.
If the monster is weak enough for guard to proc well on, it's going to either hit for so low damage that the fact that you guarded won't matter, or it'll miss you the majority of the time.
If the monster is anything worth a ***, guard rate will be abysmal, UNLESS you stack a bunch of guard gear on, which is counter productive, as there's better gear to put on in such situations.
Trust me, I have 269 guard, it absolutely sucks. On any mob worth a ***, there is 0 noticeable difference than when my guard skill was 100 (back when I fist dinged 75 mnk).
On any mob that matters though 13 eva, provided you're not at the upper cap or floor will give a 6.5% chance to evade, totally miss the damage and allow shadows to get up if you're casting. Unless you're whoring guard gear (on anything T or higher), you're going to be floored at 5% guard rate, still take damage, still get interrupted.
"269 Guard skill is going to do more than 13 EVA. Assuming shadows are down."
So yea, on any mob that is worth a damn, 269 guard is ***, lol, 13 eva beats it, easily.
Though, counter is *** boss :), I agree with you there.
Edit: Also, nin has parry, which I hear has a similar shitty proc rate, but at least when it does, you take no damage and your shadow casting goes uninterrupted.
Been needing that thing for ages lol, cound't find someone last night that was overcharing ABCs, found one this morning lol.
Grats.
It was a pain getting a good price on my ABCs for the Loq. Earring. I did get a couple nice people that gave me a discount for buying a large chunk (I think I bought 45+ ABCs total that day). I won't go over 6k/ABC unless I'm in the last 10 or so that I need.
I have a headache, but otherwise I'm fine. I was in a fantastic mood yesterday as well until later in the afternoon.
I saw your comment on facebook how it was an amazing day and nothing could stop it. Then I go home from work, check the AH later and it was a shitstorm.
Yeah, but that doesn't mean it brought me down. I can fling ***and still have a smile on my face.

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.
