I've heard this rumor before and I've heard people denounce it too. I haven't done this BCNM but I think 50 seals is too much to waste on a superstition ;) My advice is, if you want an Astral Ring, go for the 20 8) You can bring a party that can always win the BCNM20 if you bring the right jobs. You...

Maybe with the optimal distance rule, Rng will get killed less because they can't be on top of the mob anymore. I don't play ranger, but from what I've seen, Rangers don't fight up close to mobs in god fights, anyway. Usually, gods have vicious area attacks and it's better to keep your distance if ...

I was talking to a friend who plays WoW yesterday. I played World of Warcraft for a couple of months. I agree that downloading and installing updates was quick and easy, however... Actually logging into a game after an update took place... was virtually impossible :P I spent more time not being abl...

Not only that but it seems to me that every update has gone over the time that they predicted and shortly after the update is ready there is "massive congestion" and thousands of people seem to flip out with every update (As if this is something different, com'on kids.) I expected that it...

I was speaking strictly from the point of view of an alliance Burning Circle, ENM, or a god fight. Sometimes the monsters (or monsters as the case may be) get lucky and wipe out all the healthy tanks. This forces any weakened tanks that have been raised into fighting right away. Now that I think abo...

I tried to get the upgrade this morning, no luck. I could get as far as the very first screen to start the update and that's it. I get the feeling I won't be playing tonight either

This will just make it possible for some of the other damage classes (DRG, DRK, MNK and such) to get their jobs back. It gives melee a slight advantage. If they so dare, they can fight while weakened and not worry about how many times they die. :P If a mage or ranger dies twice in a row, they are n...

A new quest called “The Fellowship Quest” has been added. Upon completion of this quest, the player will receive an item used to call an NPC. -The NPC may not be called during NPC escort quests, but may be used along with beastmasters’ pets, summoners’ avatars, and dragoons’ wyverns. -The NPC may o...

A player who is KO'd, revived, then while still in a weakened state KO'd again will now, after a second reviving, temporarily experience a weakened attack and accuracy loss for magic and ranged attacks. Having died repeatedly in several god battles, I can say from first-hand experience, this change...

My current favorite advanced job is summoner.

What will you be doing to pass the time today?

Astrals are up to 800K on Alexander when I checked tonight.

I used to duo as a summoner with Kashell as a beastmaster in Gusgen Mines for awhile. We fought bombs on the lowest level... and we even killed a invisible taru walking by when one of them exploded. That's mostly why the xp is ok... if the bomb explodes, only your pets take the damage (I used Ifrit ...

I've done this with 3 summoners... The bats can't survive a triple Astral Flow attack ;) Of course, you can only do one fight every two hours this way. :oops: I think a thief and two summoners would also work (thief runs in and uses Perfect Dodge) or a paladin and two summoners (paladin runs in and ...

I've never successfully done this BCNM, so I can't say for certain. I can say that they drop from the BCNM 50 "Treasures and Tribulations" at Balgas Dias, that's where one of mine came from. That BCNM is actually soloable by anybody. You've got a 1 in 3 chance of winning. I've heard this ...

I wonder how well an NPC like this would behave. An NPC might be fine as mindless damage dealer, but there's no shortage of PC damage dealers as it is. For healers, support, and tanking, however, it's nice to have someone who can adapt and make the right decision, especially when things go wrong. Do...

What disturbs me is that gil selling is more profitable than the monthly fees that SE collects to run the game in the first place.

To me, that's just a giant red flag that screams "something is wrong with this picture."

no offense to DRG users.. i also find sexyness within DRGs.. but as in pt.. not really useful... as in abilities they can do in pt if you are to tell me about other jobs.. what they can do.. i can clearly tell you or compare to other jobs I am by no means an expert at Dragoons, having never leveled...

Now you're ragging on me!

(I'm a black mage in Kuji's static party )

You're just jealous because I tank more than you do when we party.

Critical hits also will interrupt you even with Stoneskin and Aquaveil, but of course, there is less chance of being interrupted with them than without. I'm not sayin this isn't true or possible, but I don't recall ever seeing a 0 damage critical hit ever interupt me. You'll also need a RDM main to...

/em gets up on her soap box. NINJA! TODAY IS DAY YOU WILL NEVER FORGET! The unemployment line is to the left but please, no cutting in front of the dragoons. :roll: Added the new info with a heavy heavy heavy heart. Today is a black day for my profession. Edit: Fixed a small spelling error. Well, t...

Wow... how does a WHM tank? Stoneskin doesn't last that long, and the cast time is insane. Even trying to Blink yourself before Stoneskin runs out is difficult, just because you're guessing when Stoneskin will disappear. If you're wrong, you either lose it too soon and interrupts Blink, or you have...

As SE said, " These adjustments will give players more freedom when choosing where to battle ." ... The picture for this update is kind of funny. It shows a bunch of goblins moving in a line as if they are invading (or fleeing?) an area that looks like Buburimu. I think that's Bibiki Bay....

Even though my main job is white mage, my first love was and still is red mage. I love versatile jobs that can be played more than one way as needed.

I've heard it said the most you can buy, sell or trade with is one short of 100 million gil, but you can have one short of a billion gil in your inventory.

Not having had anything close to that, I can't confirm or deny it

Another approach would be to get your thief to level 66, and try the thief Maat fight. From what I understand, all you have to do is steal from him to win

I have never done the mini tuning fork battles, having acquired all my summons with Prime avatar battles. However, when I first started out, I did not have Carbuncle Mitts. Having obtained the mitts recently, I can say they are definitely worth the effort. Right now, at level 36, I can keep Carby ou...
