Re: TP

example if i gain 300 TP with a sword could I swich to a club to use /ws "Starlight" <me> to restore my MP? I know it's only your example, but... even if this were possible, Starlight doesn't give you a lot of MP. I only get about 20MP at 100% TP. It's really only useful in desperate situ...

It's getting to me too...

Just last night, I was in a checkout line, buying some groceries when a guy gets into line behind me wearing a red santa hat...

My first thought was that he must have completed the Christmas quest... :oops:

I thought I had heard plans for some kind of way to teleport to Tavnazia. But, of course, I can't go there yet, so it doesn't make a difference to me anyway. :roll:

And yes, bringing the Raise 3 scroll back from obscurity is seriously needed.

I was once invited (as a white mage) to a party with 2 ninja who were fighting coeurls in the Labyrinth of Onzozo.

I spent most of the time casting Haste, Silena, and Stona... with only the occasional cure :lol:

You can do the Yhoat one solo... but it will take you a very very very very long time to win the fight against a single lizard as a white mage. And if it petrifies you when you're really low on health it may actually kill you :( Getting the scroll from Fei'Yin isn't too bad. Since everyone can get t...

On that note...

Mithra have rarely seen, but cool animations of their own...

If you leveled ninja from 1 to 9 you'll know what I'm talking about: fighting with a single katana (pre-Dual Wield). The behind-the-back attack is very cool. 8)

I think elves pose strangely for everything from casting spells to shooting bows because they were designed to look awkward and graceless (in keeping with their racial traits). However, their awkward poses often look more cool because they're slightly off. ;) Elves casting ninjitsu look like Elvis s...

White mages are the preferred healer until level 41. After that, Red Mages steal the show since not only can they heal, but they have Refresh and Convert which reduces downtime. If the red mage subs white mage, they'll get many of the ailment cures like Poisona too. Once you reach 56, though, white ...

Now that I've unexpectedly taken up Paladin again (I need it at 40 for the Fei'Yin BCNM), I'm going to follow your advice Nivez :) I have a question, though. How long does Cover last? The guide says it can be used every 5 minutes, but it says the duration is "N/A." That doesn't make any se...

Yeah, that's something I've noticed to.

If the Japanese player is nearby after saying {Thank you.}, I will use an emote like /bow in response.

If they are using /tell and aren't nearby, I try responding with {Take care.} since it seems relevant to their previously perilous situation. ;)

There is something I've wanted to try, and I'm not sure how well it will work.

The odds on consecutive rolls mean NOTHING. Each roll is in its own little univerise, isolated from each and every other roll you have ever made. Had you rolled again the odds of winning would STILL be 4 in 10. In this case they do. You're betting that you'll win before you run out of money, not th...

I'd encourage you to experiment with all these jobs you've mentioned, Josiejo. The nice thing about this game is the subjob system rewards your exploration into other jobs.

I'm pretty sure gambling with gil is against the rules (excluding Square's own gambling NPCs). So even if you try to get a casino operator in trouble for not paying up your winnings, you're liable to get into trouble yourself for even participating. Not only that, but anyone who sets up a casino is ...

I guess the turn-off to Warrior (and what must attribute to their underestimation) is the fact that a Warrior is just plain basic. Yeah, I think that's why it's so underestimated.

In that case have you considered taking WAR all the way? The WAR is mostly a Damage Dealer and Secondary tank at later levels. Shield not required. At level 22 the WAR/NIN can Blink Tank using a Greataxe or two Axes. The Fighter's Lorica on a Mithra will turn heads. I agree with Tsybil. Warrior is ...

I leveled Paladin to 30 and I think the experience has actually made me a better white mage when it comes to understanding how monster hate works.
