An almost accomplishment for the LS. Almost beat Proto-Ultima :( got him down to 1%, how frustrating :x Ugh, that sucks to loose all those hard won chips. Don't feel too bad, though. There's almost never a "clean" Ultima fight. Experience helps a great deal. I bet y'all do great the secon...

This post is very late after yours. Hopefully you've beaten it already. If so, perhaps others can benefit from the reply. It is definitely one of the hardest fights in CoP and certainly the most satisfying to finally strategize your way through. I've not been playing or visiting boards since Februar...

Unless it's level 38.

Heh -- great still works -- just depends on how you do the translation; eg. here's a list of synonyms for great: august, capital, celebrated, chief, chivalrous, commanding, dignified, distinguished , eminent, exalted, excellent, famed, famous, fine, glorious, grand, heroic, high-minded, highly regar...

I hate DnD. Before you tell me to put a flame suit on, hear me out. I never liked the DnD system. But if this man hadn't help create it, there would be no White Wolf Publishing or World of Darkness RPGs. No Camerilla Club, No LARP RPGs.Everything I love is a byproduct of this man. You're actually g...

Word of advice, don't ever get involved with mechanics :roll: Converse: if you find a good mechanic, don't let him get away! Hell, add him to your Christmas card list. I had a great mechanic for my Rx7. The guy collected them as a hobby and they were also his business. Then one day I had some probl...

Tel the GM they're position-hacking. That should get more attention than "circumstantial evidence says they're RMT" -- especially since they really are POS hacking.

Ask around and hopefully find a spot that a lot of people on your server use as a "server board". It helps immensely when just getting started again. MP is a good starting point, but it's pan-server. It can't really help you all that much on particular servers unless you get a lucky hit on...

It probably didn't take more than an afternoon or two. I bet it was done by simply building a new sound font for an existing piece and then replaying it back; ie. make a new midi instrument whose notes are windows sound-effects.

Okuza has no "real" translation, just some implied/similar words. Sokuza = silent meditation (JP). O - Ku - Za = Great - Dragon - Meditations // from what little I know of JP hieroglyphics. Also, it sounds like Yakuza (JP mafia) to NA folks. 'Dunno about how it would sound to JP. Kinda apr...

:lol: 2 Miles an hour down the road with your blinker on for 10 miles *rimshot* LOL. "Can't Drive 55!" is practically my theme song. :oops: I get about 1 ticket every 2-3 years. It's amusing to stand up in traffic school and say just how fast I was going. The reactions are fun. Traffic sc...

Finally finished homam -- well, almost (dun want hat, bad stats & it's ugly). Here's a pic -- 4/5 homam with W.Turban. ^^

Made a couple minor changes to our KS99/Wyrm strategy and our shell went from 1/5 wins last trip to 8/8 very easy wins this trip. No big drops, no beards, but it was fun just cranking out the wins right and left on this one. ^^

Our shell killed DL for the 3rd time now -- finally starting to look "easy" rather than lucky. Dropped: Jade, Ring, & Mantle, too. ^^

Well, if you don't mind extra geeky tats, you could use: =^.^=

Nice site and cool name for a shell, too. ^^

I remember that scene, but not well. IIRC, there's either a conversation path you need to take or after you "save" her, she walks off always and then joins you later on (not much later). I usually played neutral/good parties and had no problem getting Viconia. I always chose the paths that...

A good strat for PLDs (We had three PLD tanks no ninjas) is for the PLD to cure each other. This really did help them share the hate off each other and keep it even. A bit scary when Kirin went unclaimed for a split second tho :oops: Yeah, cross-curing works great. It's also something that the kite...

... In case you have a co-kiter try to share hate, don't hog all the hate to yourself. This is the only point I'd vehemently disagree with (others are minor quibbles). When you're doing stand-up tanking, you need to not hog hate, but when you're kiting, definitely hog all the hate you can. Every ki...

Our kite party = NIN/drk NIN/drk RDM WHM. You can use nin/war or pld/nin for the NIN/drk, but we've gotten our best results with nin/drk. NIN/war agro is VERY soft. You have to work really hard and voke every 30s or you'll never hold agro as NIN/war. By the time the mini-alliance is done, a NIN/drk ...

Our main problem seems to be, in order to do SCs, you have to stop moving...every time we stop moving (we being the tanks), someone ends up dead. -.- What you can do as the "kiter" for Kirin is to try to stay within his long-cast range. If you're close (7~12), he will mostly use his fast ...

Which would make it a spectacular PVP game, and which is why the game will never see the light of day, because let us be honest. The carebears who want no pvp or highly controlled pvp (wow) outnumber those of us who want pure PVP based on a players skill, not their level or gear. PvP is best in RL....

Seigan is level 35. My DRK is only 42 and SAM is 34. ^^ While duo'ing down low when there aren't people to make a real party, I've found that drk+whm is not nearly as nice as sam+blm. The whm duo is safer, but the sam+blm duo brings in more XP. It's a race to see if we can kill it before it kills us!

For DRK, I use /nin almost exclusively. It's by far the best SJ around if you have even semi-decent gear. You'll end up pulling hate and then tanking. If you use Souleater a lot, /nin is even better -- you only take damage from your hits and not also from the critter. I've found that when duo'ing wi...

If you have the virus, chances are your account is or will be gone within an hour of typing in your password. It's a keylogger. The folks doing the hack&sack are incredibly bold. They just change your PW & the CC info, then run around selling your gear right in front of you. SE refuses to as...

ROFL.

Nice pet smack, though!

7 AF? Bloody hell, did that include 4 BST pieces that no one wanted? :lol: Our record is 17 AF2 and 3x100 Seven isn't too shabby, though, particularly if it's not going FFA. Our best Bastok had 7 non-FFA out of 13 total (so 6x AF2 rotted ><). We often get as few as two non-FFA at cities. ; ; I so w...

Is DRK a fun job to play? I'm intrieged by the thought of weilding a scythe. If you remember that DRK can be a powerful debuffer, it can be even more fun. I have no idea why people don't use DRK debuffs more often or why DRK's aren't smarter about using them. Most of them just do ABS-STR/DEX, which...

I saw a mathematical proof that before DW2 you build TP slower with /NIN and two daggers than as /anythingelse and one. The "proof" was flawed and broken if that was what it tried to show. DW TP rate is essentially identical to non-DW TP rate. Long ago before the tp-floor was removed, it ...

Realistically, you probably only need to worry about your server project if you become a noticeable success. There are a lot of different ways they can shut you down -- even down to basic copyright infringement. Despite the fact that the server side is completely clean from any copied code, you're s...
