I figured that might have been it, but I tried a few mobs and it was the same thing. I swear you used to be able to cast Dia and ***from 24 yalms, unless my dad brain really got fried lately.

Is there a specific Eudaemon item I need to make in order to pick up a MacBain?

Like is there a certain combo that guarantees Mistmaw Guacamole shows up in Rala?

The Mistmaw NM is AFAIK random per area. MacBain NM only appears in Rala so make KI for that. Eudaemon item only affects the normal enemies that appear and bonus for that area - see https://www.bg-wiki.com/ffxi/Category:Alluvion_Skirmish#Eudaemons_in_Cirdas_and_Rala

Using higher level items means bigger area, more time and quality of rewards. Got better results with the higher tier items when used to do it.

Have you done the RoE for a weapon voucher already?

Can't augment that without doing Odyssey though right? I'm really out of the realm of my FFXI knowledge, heh.

(Also I'm at work til 3pm est today, 5 tomorrow, and 11 the next three days after that so... kinda busy x.x)

Unaugmented Montante +1 is already better than Macbain's best possible stats.

Fully augmented Macbain is 304 base damage, +7%wsd(first hit), and then some acc/atk.

Probably less effort to get the base Montante compared to the augmented Macbain. Macbain looks cool though, and I want it for style lock anyway.

It'll take you 3 days (2 if you already have the KI), but all you need to do is run through Odyssey A with the RoE, then same for Ody B and C. Running through each Ody zone to the end should be like 7-10 minutes with very minimal risk (B has Tauri, C has Wamoura and Psycheflayer, all are true sight or sound).

to change a char name essentially requires 2 paid transfers right?
It helps to also have a spare Content ID (or free trial account) that you can use to force the name-change and test to see if the name you want is even available.

The process is for staying on the same server and changing your name.

Eiryl.Asura jumps to Eiryl.Titan
Create a new Eiryl.Asura
Eiryl.Titan Jumps to Asura and "gets to" change names

Name change for the lowlow price of $40

You can also delete your character, make the new mule, call and get it restored. Free that way, and you don't have to wait a week.

I'm using the EU client to log one character in, and they're reliably dcing about once every half hour (perhaps to the second?) I checked the in-game auto-disconnect settings and they're configured to Off. WTF is going on?

I wouldnt say Last Stand is level above Upheaval or Stardiver.
Resolution has also kinda fallen down in recent content, because of few reasons, but it's still pretty strong.

More than likely your connection is being routed through a node that is having problems. You can do a ping to the server and it will tell you which step is dropping packets. For general Internet usage dropping packets won't really cause any issue but something like an MMO that needs a stable connection you are going to get disconnected.

The only fix that can be done is using a VPN, SE can't do anything as its just the Internet infrastructure that's at fault. You can always wait it out and see if it fixes itself. Also yes it can just effect one character and the rest be fine.

If it was a connection issue, all clients would drop, not just the EU one every hour on the dot.

AFAIK, the client shouldnt determine what server hops to take.

I have three accounts all on the same pc, many times a week I wake up to only one of them having dc’d. It makes no sense to me.

Often if there's a blip and all accounts r0 for that microsecond not all make it back, it just kinda happens.

Other times an account just crashes for absolutely no reason, just standing there.

Just like when the chatboxes randomly go blank, icons randomly disappear, "invisible menu freeze"

Spaghetti shagetting
