Forgive me if this has been addressed somewhere else: would even take a point to where I can find this info:

Exactly which stats on a weapon will function in the offhand? Attributes? Accuracy? Anything?

Thanks!

Depends on the weapon. RMEA generally lose everything except damage/delay(empyreans keep the base stat, aeonics keep the store tp). TP bonus from aeonics or standard tp bonus weapons doesn't work in offhand, but TP bonus from magian tp bonus+1000 weapons does. Anything other than RMEA, unless it specifically says 'main hand:', will typically work in offhand.

Tough question since sometimes it depends on the weapon.

For instance:
Relic Katana has tons of attack, but in the offhand it doesn't give you any.
Ambuscade weapons on the other hand, have lots of attack and accuracy, but those contribute to your stats when in offhand.

Then with TP bonus, nome of the Aeonics do anything in offhand for ya, but those TP bonus Magian ones will.

But it's not just a rule of REMA not giving anything, because Empyrean will give their high STR/DEX/ETC stats while in offhand. There's just no rhyme or reason that I've seen other than wrote memorization.

No you should be able to install right from POL.com

http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/download/media/install_win.html

Having a SE account/active content ID is really how they gate it all. That link should work to install although I haven’t done a fresh install in a long while.

Working on an Escutcheon right now, after I get 100% Craftmanship and trade it to my Guild Master for the Craftsman's Crystal, it drops to a certain percentage below 100%. Do I need to level it back up to 100% before I synthesize the next level of shield?

Thanks in advance~

Cause you got 2 extra alex in that zone so it was the ONLY one that was farmed, leading to that punishment

(Also slightly easier than the alternatives so it became the default)

Of course not

In an alternate reality where gms care, there's a non zero chance it could be harassment if you did it all the time

Do notice, though, the more you get people to dislike you, more those people will be willing to get you reported for whatever reason.

Get a lot of reports, and im sure some GM will take a look on you, and eventually they can get other things that can put your account in risk.

Agreed. That's why I feel that it's so important to be "nice" in this game and be the bigger person in altercations. You don't know how your mouth can come back and bite you.

------------------------------------------------------------

Random off-shoot question for anyone reading this. Has anybody seen those 6 BST's in Escha Zi'tah #2 running in and getting merits on Easy Farm? I've tracked them down to doing Garuda. I assume they're doing it over and over for the currency drops.

Can 6 BST's run VD or would they have to do D?? They're all geared the same - Valarous w/ decent augments + Skullrender/Charmer's Merlin. /DNC for healing, I guess.

I just can't see them surviving a VD without a dedicated healer. I want to know what their setup is.

Ive been in at least three servers inthe last few years and i do notice a same setup of HTBF always cleaving on zitah for merits.

Normally a party of BLUx2, GEO, COR and other 2 jobs i dont remember.

Back when i spent like 2 weeks to get 14 chars to 99 for the first time, they were always running that cycle. All those chars with chinese name, running in zitah every other hour.

I think i saw same pattern in at least two servers

Too lazy to do excel stuff but someone made a spreadsheet here if that gets you to an answer faster, can't vouch that it's 100% accurate.

Reminder: Chacharoon is giving away Silver Vouchers during the New Year's event. Trading him 10k will get you a New Year's Pouch containing 10k gil, and additionally, a Silver Voucher, once a day. The Pouch can only be opened by another character, but if you've got more than one or a friend who will swap with you, you get the 10k back.

That's in addition to the listed gifts to buy, which contain random REM rocks and crafting spheres.

Yeah, if it's not time gated like that, what's to stop everyone from creating mules just to get those random REM rocks and spheres on freshly hatched characters, then deleting them and recycle.
