Why do Galkan sausages come in packs of 10, but Iron bread only comes in packs of 8?

Why Bombs are weak to Fire Damage.

I assume it's like...lighting a bomb's fuse with fire you make it blow up?

I still don't understand the logic behind why Bahamut isn't a summon... (He's a Terrestrial Avatar... The Celestial Avatars are Gods made by the Goddess according to the lore behind them. There is no mention of them being able to even die. Yet, Terrestrial Avatars are beasts who became god-like to protect the Mother Crystals; but they are still capable of dying. And, if the six Sleeping Gods (Ifrit, Shiva, etc) awake and Vana'diel is returned to a paradise state, they are reduced to mere animanls... Wall of text aside, Bahamut is just a wyrm on crystal-roids. So even the weakest of the Celestial Avatars would be able to knock him down if they weren't a scaled-down version that Summoners can conjure. >_>)
Also;

- How time flows differently in Vana'diel, yet we don't age a day.
-", yet pet wyvrens don't age a day.
- How there are jobs which were made for soloing, yet are required for an alliance event like Voidwatch.
- How, with all the shouts people do, their voices never go horse.
- Why is Fishing considered a craft when you don't actually craft anything, but Mining and Logging do not have their own "craft" levels.
- Tanaka.
- Why do we kill Beastmen? All they do to us is merely knock us unconscious and allow us to live. Yet we not only kill them, but defile their dead bodies by searching for any loot/gil they may have on hand. (Racism!)
- How there are monster fish/squid that, not only live out of water, but float.

Here's what I don't understand. The logic behind blus with Oat 2-4 hit swords. I see a blu on my server with the 99 and 95 versions on at the same time.

Honestly its more like they've already made their choices most of the time and they're just looking for reassurance and someone to justify their choices. If you happen to say something they weren't looking forward to hearing they mouth off. I see it here on the forums all the time.

How people you've helped time and time again with any (~insert time-vampiring task here~) regardless of what you were doing at the time, then they brush ya off saying they don't owe you anything. >_>

(I didn't mind helping people in-game when I played, but I never got help when I needed it unless there was something in it for another person. Decided that, when I realized I had turned into someone like that, I had to quit XI.)

Would you rather they be MP/Magic acc+ swords? :p But yeah, one I can see for an offhand weapon, but there are much better main hand choices.

The ranged accuracy on this. Or why it's left on after the bomb core update.

Yes actually. The M.acc swords at least have higher DPS I wager. Also the m.acc isn't terrible for stuff like temporal shift or actinic burst while meleeing or for procing blu in VW if you don't want to switch to staves. The OaT 2-4 weapons (of any kind really) are just massive TP feed for not a lot of gains in most cases. Also I've seen thfs with both 2-4 daggers. Just sayin' it's really odd.

It's actually pretty nice for RDM with enspells, though.

Why do Puppetmasters get throwing skill, yet no throwing weapon save for ones that All Jobs can equip? Even then, they'd lose the Animator, which they are REQUIRED to have on in order to use Maneuvers abilities.

While we're on that subject, why is it that BLU gets so many throwing weapons, yet no native throwing skill?

Neither of those are good choices :< BLU gets plenty of Mag.Acc. without giving up a spot that could have an Almace or STR Sword in it.

I'm okay with Galkas getting the Mag.Acc. swords though cuz it has MP on it too lulz

It's because they wern't actually looking for advice, they were looking to have their thoughts proved correct and it back fired.

Oh I didn't say it was a good idea, just one better than that OaT 2-4 crap lol

Why do Hecteyes aggro by sound when they have no ears and a million eyes?

Why do beetles link by sight when they don't have any eyes?

Why is there parrying skill on RNG relic when they have no native skill?

Why does BLU get access to throwing weapons when they have no native skill?

Why does the term "balance" mean "nerf everything that isn't SAM?"
