Do you lose log in points after the log in event, or can you stack them forever?

I have a question about Ebisu +1, but does the server ID and the obtained number stay if someone server hops?

I'm on Lakshmi right now, and considering doing it before jumping to Asura, but was wondering if it would always say "Lakshmi #xxx" or switch to "Asura #xxx"

Anybody knows the caps of Enfeebling Skill and Macc+ on Grioavolr? Excluding Dark Matter.

In a few hundred stones I managed to get Enf+16 and Macc+25.
Is Enf cap really 16? And macc cap 30?
Small bump!

Yes. You're kinda lucky.

The difference towards other staves is kinda small though...
Let's take Oranyan for example.
With my current augments and assuming 1 skill = 1 macc, I'm only ~10 above it. Actually a bit less when you factor INT/MND.
I mean with such a "small" difference and so many items to augment, if I had an Oranyan (or compareable staff) already I'd probably set enfeebling grio as a low priority honestly.


I guess the key factor for enf Grio, more than just the rough macc, is the enf skill which affects the potency of some spells.
Which ones though? I only know about Frazzle/Distract/Addle

Hey all, if not the right place for this then please advise.

I keep reading for example, with impetus up i have this gearset on and with down i have this set.

Question is, does gearswap recognise when it's up and or down and switch on the fly or do i manually trigger the set by way of command and or action?


Secondly, I'm reading Howling fist is the superior WS now. With that said the Tripsania i think it's called. is it better to go Option A (STR) or option B (DEX+ACC)? Also, how's it fair once fully modded with other weapons?

Thanks!

I've been trying to deal with weird controller issues, but there is one i just can't seem to fix. I'm using an Xbox elite controller, even using Xpadder, the triggers just refuse to work. I can't use macros due to this. Is there a work around for this? I could put them on the shoulder buttons, but that just feels wrong. Also why does Xinput just completely break the settings?

Hi.

When doing high tier battlefield (ouryu for example) i noticed that magic burst strat dont work too well. The same party/buff that can deal like 30k+ on 130 mobs like SR, pakecet, it barely breaks 10k on ouryu or omega VD. So, my question is whats the deal with those mobs, if some native mdt.

Thanks in advance.

Did you go into you native FFXI controller setting and activate the triggers? SE didn't add trigger use until somewhat recently. Before then, you needed an unsigned, third party driver.

BRD vs GEO for lowman content. Assuming all REM are available, which is more useful to a trio of players plus trusts?

I found nothing worked for me. Triggers and D-Pad just simply wouldnt work. That is until i found a post (very old one actually) that told me if using a XBOX ONE or Elite controller. On the bottom right of the FFXI config (controller set up) select CONFIGURATION D. THis fixed everything for me and im using XINPUT also.

Remember CONFIGURATION D

Hope this help!

Hey all

so my melee set reads:
sets.engaged
sets.engaged.SomeAcc
sets.engaged.Acc

As a controller player, how do i get these working as a macro? Currently, they are bound to:
F9 for DPS
F10 for PDT
F11 for MDT

However, I'm unsure how i can bind this to a macro. Would the following work?

/autoexec sets.engaged

at work so unable to test. But nothing i input would change this. Was very frustrating last night to say the least....

If I remember right it's /console gs equip sets.engaged.Acc for example.
Could probably have the 3 lines for each set on one macro to toggle like keyboard.

No, but you have plenty options of waltz potency available.

I vaguely recall that "Sword enhancement spell damage +" does not affect the enspell damage from Runes.
But I can't find a verification. Anyone remember/know?

Gearswap can recognize when the buff is active and when its not. If you want to do more complicated stuff like swapping bodies when you miss then you need a complex formula which was posted a few pages ago in the monk forums

The dot of Poison is affected by skill.

I wasn't aware enfeebling skill affects the potency on any enfeebs besides Poison. I believe only MND/INT affects potency.

BGWiki page for Distract says it's a flat eva-35. For Distract II, it says it's based on dMND similar to Paralyze's potency.

Edit: Ok the BGWiki for Distract III does say enfeebling skill is a component. So I don't know what to make of this, all 3 are different.

Distract and Frazzle both are. I think the caps for I/II are just so low that they cannot be easily tested (and are therefore not very important).

Does anyone have a timing chart for capacity chains?
Like what is the maximum allowable time between kills to maintain capacity chain depending on how high the chain is currently.

I've looked around quite a bit and can't find one, only found one for experience chains and it was super old.

It varies based on the level of monsters, I believe byrth posted it at some point.

All i will say is eyeballing. I think it decreases to close to 30 secs per kill. But it seems to decrease later as the mob increase the ilv. For example, the same killspeed a little higher than 30 secs between kill will go to chain ~26 (?) in Sih gates, chain ~30 in Dho gates and chain ~32 in Woh Gates. After that point, you need to be below 30 secs imo.

Ive been cping this week in Dho gates. My killspeed seems a bit higher than 30 secs overall, but if everything goes well, i can make below 30 secs. Normally my chain breaks around 32, but yesterday i managed to kill constantly below 30 secs (eyeballing again), and managed to go up to chain ~50. So, i think after some point it doesnt decrease much, if at all. Later gonna cp again, gonna try to get more precise numbers.
