So notice of patch said it would be easier now...too bad its in fact now HARDER to finish them...well at least for most of them.

Only good point is weaver give now 5 pts...

But take for example Kila, fire weather is now NEVER popin anywhere, and i mean NEVER, i spent weeks Irl in Quicksand and Cap and i saw it like 30sec in Quicksand 2time, and NEVER in cape...

And hidden in notes, theres now new system for Nms, like Three star blacks you can see placeholders of placeholder : i you dont kill everythin in zone, Ph dont even pop like before...

so except weapons you can do in zones with weather always happenin...
Good weapons are really even more a pain in *** to finish...

Thanks Se...thanks, make us lost time MORE and MORE...

First of all, just because you're not smart enough to kill on firesday instead of waiting for fire weather (which we all already knew doesn't happen very often), doesn't mean SE made it harder. It only means it's easier for some people.

Second, on your theory about NM trials....no....just no, you're completely wrong, and I'm not sure where the hell you pulled that from.

here's hoping someone with two lv85 relics raises the bar just to antagonize the op even further

As someone who owns an Amano, how bitter is the taste that a Masamune is better?

I'm being 100% serious. I don't own either, but if I owned an Amano I'd probably he a little pissed.

Why would you even TRY to make things harder for yourself...waiting around anywhere for Fire weather is just asking for a waste of time. The only time you should focus entirely on weather killing is the first 2 trials in each elemental path, or possibly if it's an enemy with weather in a place that's very frequent. Like having to kill beasts or raptors in ice weather (Uleguerand).

It's basically the same only slightly easier. First 2 trials in the elemental path are much quicker, and it's nice in later trials if you're on a trial with weather that's frequent. Got lucky once on the 250 Manticore trial on firesday in the Cape and Fire weather popped up for 7 or 8 mins when we were already on pace to kill probably 110 or so. got like 180 points in that day.

tbh, notevenmad.jpg

at least my mannequin will look cool, but on a more serious note, i'm just glad to have it is all, because it was a goal of mine to have it eventually, though it's ironic i got it right before this here masaderp thing came out

as for "time wasted" factor on the trials: i don't even remember doing them, honestly, but that's because i handled them in the matter of a mere month, and even then it was easy

probably'll do the lv90 amano trial regardless just to pass the time when it comes out, even if it ends up just being more further dmg and useless accuracy

Iarumas should be allowed to dual wield those Samurai Katanas. It makes perfect sense.
