I named it Sparks, so I just do //lua unload Sparks

Hope this helps.

indeed it does. Do these programs unload/disengage when you zone or after a set time? Or do they remain active until you use that command or shut down?

I was told that this was probably the better script for getting things with sparks. It also has the added benefit allowing you to easily get a different item instead of Acheron Shields if you so desire.

That one stays active until you unload it.

certainly is a lot longer. Whats the difference between the two? I only have a very basic coding sense. And even that was 10+ years ago that i learned it. Forgotten most since then; havnt used it.

The extra lines help prevent errors that might send sketchy messages to the server. Also, instead of just click and exiting, you do //sparks buy "item" to get your stuff. Just make sure it's spelled correctly.

If you dont have to talk/exit then that mean that would work from anywhere? Or do you still have to engage with the npc.

You still have to be close to the NPC (within 5'). It actually doesn't need to be capitalized but yeah, you do need to spell it right.

So the devs have stated in a Freshly Picked Vana'diel:

Quote:
Also included in “Other” are those that choose to trade in Dark Matter with their equipment and gain a special Arcane Glyptic. Among them is “Treasure Hunter” which is a property that cannot be obtained through normal Arcane Glyptics. Also among the best results include having “Double Attack +5%”, “Triple Attack +4%” and “Quadruple Attack +3%” all at the same time. Dark Matter also has a chance to yield higher stat gains than other stones. For example, a Pellucid Stone can give up to +40 but Dark Matter can give up to +50.

It has been a while since people found out that they can use DM to augment armor/weapons, so has anyone obtained anything actually usable as a TP or nuking set from DM augments? Has anyone seen more than one multi-attack augment on one armor/weapon, like DA+TA, TA+QA or all three? And if so, how much DM did it take before they saw it?

I haven't had any problems with using Shortcuts and typing:

/c3 aug

/c3 arc

to cure my trusts

When doing Telchine augments for GEO, I take it you want:

duskorb for Pet -Dmg
leaforb for Pet Regen+

Any hints on the third augment? Does snoworb Pet Def+ affect Luopan? Is Pet Def+ even the one I want?

Depends on the run, how lucky you get with cottons/single alex drops and time will vary on what you decide to kill.

Im AR2 I skip floor 1 chigoe, floor 4 qutrub and kill all the spawned gears on floor 5 and clear in about 40mins on THF.

As for Alex, again depends on what you kill, all that is guaranteed is the alex drops off gears and chariots and the HQ boss linen which in AR2 should be a minimum of 100 but could be towards 300 if you get lucky with pouch drops.

Hello guys, anyone who tried during the september campaign knows how good is the arcane glyphtics campaign that we get this week? The chance to get decent augments on ra'kaznar gear is improved for real or is just shitty as usual? Thanks

I've noticed that some weapons have 2 different Magic Accuracy stats:

like Solstice have:
Magic Accuracy +15
Magic Accuracy Skill +215

https://www.bg-wiki.com/bg/Solstice

what's the difference?
how can I compare these stats with another item that has only magic accuracy skill?

"Magic accuracy skill+" effectively raises your magic skill ratings to the level where they would be at if your character was at the level of the weapon in your main hand. Let's say, if there was no item level and you were a level 119 rdm, your default enfeebling magic skill cap would be 639, but since it is capped at 424 for level 99, "Magic accuracy skill+" on your main weapon gives you the missing skill points.

"Magic accuracy+" works the same way as it did pre-item level. It is added to your magic accuracy from INT or MND and relevant magic skill to calculate your final magic accuracy.

Please note, however, that Magic Accuracy Skill is only +X to a magic skill for the purpose of calculating Macc.
(So the healing magic example is moot, since it wouldn't be a factor. Since healing magic doesn't do Macc.)

It's the same augments.
It's just that the ranges are smaller so you'll get better augments easier. (eg: 2 stones instead of 30)

The Ra'kaznar upgrade KI, however, is still stupid and while more common... ∞/2 still is ∞.

It is actually not moot against undead :P but yeah, it is like the worst example to explain it. Idk why I chose that tbh <.<

Go to your Windower4->addons folder. Create a new folder called "sparks". If you're using the longer one I linked, paste the sparks code into notepad++ and save it as sparks.lua in the new sparks folder. Do the same with the map.lua that's also in that link.

i dl'ed notepad++ and c/p the sparks part into it. Is it ok if the formatting/spacing isnt the same? Cause it gets rid of all the extra 'return' spaces and indentations. Making it 128 lines instead of 145. Is there a way to make this formatting carry over? I used to do very basic coding a decade ago. I do remember how annoying not having the proper indentation can be.

Can you trade the pluton as you go for upgrade or do you have to do all 10k at once ?

Think about it and you'll figure out that's a stupid question.

It should be fine if you just copy and pasted it.

The diplomatic version of Kyte's response is that plutons stack to 99 and you need 10k, there is no physical way to hand them all in at once.
