Random Question thread (FFXI related)
Does anyone still do Dynamis on beastmaster? I almost never see BSTs in there anymore, so I was wondering how it is before I update my sets. I've been farming Dyna for the last 3-4 months as THF or DNC, but I want a change of pace. If I could get around the same amount of currency, I'd give it a try... I could run Salvage2 on BST as well, so that would fully replace my DNC and THF, which I only use for solo farming.
Where's the best camp in abyssea for Excalibur and Claustrum and Guttler.
From start to finish since I'll be Brewing them all.
Thanks in advance!

Rarely do you see them on BST due to the fact that people focus more on two things.
1) Proc'ing as fast as possible
2) Killing as fast possible
With a little bit of TH, THF is the ultimate farmer in dynamis imo. As i've been pulling 387-450 coins per run depending on my mood.

Proc-wise BST and THF are pretty much tied- sub DNC procs, and one extra proc each (Bully vs Ready). And BST killspeed is a lot better than THF; Ruinator is just win on low mobs, plus pet, plus higher damage weapons, etc. The difference is Treasure Hunter II+.
I pull the same amount of currency that you are, but thief is a terrible, boring job without much potential whatsoever. I only use it for Dyna when I see that I'll have competition. For Salvage and open Dyna I use dancer, which is a better solo job all-round.
Going to wait until I've finished my mythic and then retire thief for good, I think.

Opinions are opinions, i personally like thf and dislike bst. Saying the difference between both is th isnt correct.
To start, flee and fajin boots. Will result and some more mobs in the end. Second, if in real competition, octave or another crossbow to claim first. Third, you dont need dmg till you proc, but need great spike to finish fast after you do, so sneak attack will provide this spike. Technically, steal is a proc, and can net an extra currency, but thats not relevant. But where i think thf pull ahead in farming is his high eva. When farming, you can pull 3+ mobs at same time, resulting in reduced time between kills.

hide has also saved me countless times, but that really depends what zone and what you farm on. :P
Is there a way to get gs swaps to work while using sc shortcuts? (ie: when i type//reraise or //arise, gear doesn't change)
use the shortcuts addon for shortcuts instead
Oh, that works now. Didn't even notice it before. thank you!
Hi.
Recently i changed my xbox for a... new xbox!
To avoid all reinstall process i just plugged my old memory in the new console, but didnt work, i had to reinstall all anyway.
But the real problem is that lately ive been facing problem with memory. While in old xbox i always had my configs instantly saved in the memory (like new macros, inventory order, selected sort for items in AH), now i lose all after logging off.
Someone know why this is happening?
About macros, ive been hearing you can store then in server, but i didnt find the option for that. So how i can do this so?
Thanks in advance.

Hello!
I'm trying to get into WKRs and have completed mission 1-6, and have bought the KI to enter all of them, but haven't been able to. I get the message "The air grows tense with some strange force." a few times then "The air grows tense with some strange force. However, you sense nothing out of the ordinary. Going further in will accomplish nothing."
What am I doing wrong?
Edit: I think the second message may occur because I'm too late, lol. Still unable to enter during an occurring WKR though.

XBOX 360: LB + left stick button
PC/Keyboard: Shift + Alt + Ctrl + B
Restoring from the Server: At the character selection screen, highlight the character to restore the data for, and press the following buttons/keys.
XBOX 360: RB + right stick button
PC/Keyboard: Shift + Alt + Ctrl + R
Then choose the slot in which you want to save the configuration information for the highlighted character.
As for the rest i have no clue:(

BST can pull a lot more than 3 mobs at a time and they don't need high evasion thanks to the fact their pets are nigh unkillable they can just sic the mobs onto their pet.

Didn't try in campaign but tried on a liar reive hitting the knot. It went very very quickly, got 8 final lvls of marks within 30mins or something like that. So if campaign is anything like that, it should be quick.

It's an open pool like before(free for all). In shout groups most people /seacom an item(s). If you do with an LS, well depends on your distribution rules of the LS really.

I think it should be slower because reives is a lv100+ content, but i was thinking on those fortifications. If they give us skills, that would allow afk skill up.

Random PUGs tend to /seacom, ls have ls rules, with low man setups sometimes it's just free lot. All depends on how the leader feels like doing it.

Steal will actually steal currency?
Steal can steal 1 single currency, but i think just work with beastman, though the steal rate is low and there is the stupid 15 mins recast. SE amazed me with this stupidity, not just this ja is almost useless due to almost zero relevant items to steal, also this pathetic cooldown...
Thanks for the responses. The only thf JA I use to !! is Bully. /dnc almost always takes care of it
Does anyone know what the new respawn times are for the ToAU mega boss's ?
For fun bored at work questions.
Which interesting soloable NM pre adoulin still gives you problems?
For me apademak with his fulmination can still kill me.
Pantokrator with his annoying hit point restore while he cast spells and tp moves extremely annoying.
Which is a cool nm you want to be if you can be that nm?
For me I want to be apademak he seems cool.
Which beast men you want to join if you can? Orcs quadavs yagudo? Etc
I'll join the yagudos.

Ranis meteor still deal some massive dmg. Hes pretty hard fight to solo, maybe with the mdb atma. Without, just with some temps.
To be a nm, maybe tojil. Hes the nm i had to deal most of play time (started in oct 2012), spend most of 2013 challenging him. Without a doubt, hes the most important nm, at least for me.
About be a beastman, prob yagudo. Quadav and orcs seems so dumb. Gob and yagudo seems smarter, but yagudos seems more respectable than gobs.
