Random Question Thread (FFXI Related)

I'm fairly sure it does help, as well as combat skill relating to the weapon, and of course accuracy itself. I use Shockwave pretty often and have seen an improvement on sleep rates as I've accumulated more magic accuracy gear.

I appreciate the responses.

Added effects are Weapon Skill and Macc. TP scaling either increases the accuracy or increases the duration of the added effect, depending on the particular WS. Physical accuracy is still needed, because if the physical hit misses, the added effect cannot land.

Hey guys,

Just wondered if anyone knew of a site which had video or written sections of all of the storylines in vanadiel, I have played through almost all the story content, need to do moogle kupo detat and the first mini expansion, as well as finish SoA but just in case I never get round to it (and to recap some of the old stuff), I wondered if there was any such documentation.

Having just completed Rhapsodies of Vanadiel I'm in the mood for FFXI story haha, honestly SE, is unparalleled in story writing for the kind of fantasy I like, plenty humour and lots of likeable heroes and heroines, sometimes I just wish they would make FFXI all over again with current gen and I could forget and replay through all the expansions haha, although I'm sure that when I got back to true sight imps in the Mire or old style Dynamis I'd change my mind.

Thanks in advance.

ffxiclopedia has individual pages for the missions which contain spoiler tabs with transcripts of NPC dialogue and sometimes videos of cutscenes near the bottom of each page. It seems to be most, if not all, of the older mission storylines.

Korvana has mad videos of most of the mission CSs, and can easily be found on YouTube by searching her name and FFXI.

Which cape is better for nuking: I see a lot of people use Toro cape, but how does Izdubar mantle compare? Is it only useful when dINT is < 10?

Also, does the 5 extra Magic Accuracy of the Sanctity necklace trump the extra 1 point of MAB from the Eddy necklace?

http://ffxiclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Vana'diel_Timeline is pretty interesting if you care about lore.

I like magma steak for attack. Long duration and quite cheap on my server.
Sublime sushi is the best accuracy food in the game, right now, with a cap of 100 and some bonus DEX.
Pear crepes are amazing magic accuracy food and should be used just about all the time.

HQ versions are obviously slightly better but more expensive.

8INT is anywhere from +8macc to +4macc.
But INT does more than just give Macc, it also contributes to the base Mdmg. Since Izdubar lacks any compensating Mdmg stat, it'll wind up being the inferior piece.

And yes. 5macc >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 1MAB
At least on anything that matters... And even then on trash mobs it doesn't hurt.

They're all the same. It's no different than leveling jobs.

What's the fastest way to get Alluvion Skirmish augment stones or gil to buy them?

I'm trying to get some decent gear so I can tackle the Escha NMs. It seems like nobody is doing Alluvion much anymore and I'm having a hard time finding reliable gil making methods to buy stones. I don't want to be a hindrance to groups doing new content so I want to put together some decent sets before I dive in.

Is there anything I can do solo with mediocre gear to make some money? I know Alluvion is sort of soloable but that doesn't get me many of the stones I need and tends to not give too much money. Are dynamis and salvage still the best way to get some quick gil?

What's the respawn on Colo and Lair reives now? I seemingly keep stumbling on conflicting information.

Would really depend on your server's demand on relics or mythics. On Lakshmi its really died down alot. What I would suggest and would be your easiest way to make gil, is to get sparks and convert them into gil by npcing the items you purchase with it, such as Acheron Shield or the like. So just keep up with daily roe objectives.

If you have access to blm, you can go into abyssea and spam ga1 spells on multiple mobs you gather up and get the 500+ damage trial done at a pretty good rate. Another one is, you can burn your imprims on coalition assignments and convert them into HP-Bayld from an mithran NPC in Eastern Adoulin named Runje Desaali @J-10. 10k bayld = 1 hp bayld rate.

Can anyone tell me how to save macro to server in order to load on another pc? Thanks

How the fudge do I reach it?

Press + beside numpad

thank you so much lol

For most areas, it's 1 hour for Col, 15 min for Lair. For Ra'Kaznars and Cirdas, it's 15 min for Col and 5 min for Lair.

What if I don't have + besides numpad? I have a Samsung ativ book 9 plus and it doesn't have the + besides numpad. It doesn't have the numpad period lol.

Thank again in advance .

mini keyboards sometimes have the option to push "Fn" and another key with a blue +. At least on the mini i have access to, it has a full numpad if you use the "Fn" key.

When trying to get legend rank for a Coalition, can you repeat the same one over and over to rank up or have to do ones of a higher lvl? Also about how many per Coalition would it take to become legend if starting from scratch?

You can do that but the higher tier ones will rank you up faster.

best case scenario, can you do a Coalition a week to legend?

No no way sadly, it takes 8 months total from scratch iirc. So like a month per coalition?
