Chaosx said: ty^^ And as for FF6, if you want the real deal experience I recommend using the Japanese version. 100% of the original version is translated into English for use with an emulator on the PC. All you have to do is not use the save state function, lol. Just save your game as you normally would. However, if you don't want to swing that way then SNES cartridge style. I tried the PS1 version and although it's the same deal, the cut scenes kinda take away from the SNES feel. SNES cut scenes were just you not controlling where the characters moved and if it was really intense you couldn't even control the speed of the text, lol. GBA, ugh, that's reminds me of the version of Crystalis they released. They totally changed the very first quest in that game, so I doubt GBA will give you the original experience, lol. Back to being unsure. D: I emulate lots of games, so really, depending on how the GBA emulator looks fullscreen at 1920x1200, I may go for SNES just for the pretteh value. Or play GBA after finishing the SNES ..lol. Night, Zeek.

Gearing up THF and gonna try skilling up Parry that way. Goodluck. I had problems doing it on thf. Lower lvl mobs I'd evade 95% of the time. Higher lvl ones I'd never parry lol

I've mathed it out as 119 hours @ 1skill/hour. Spending 4 hours a day I could be capped within 4 weeks and 2-3 days. This is currently what I'm aiming for, but realistically I'll give up or get pissed long before I hit 200. Dual Parry Knives + Bonnet + Earring = +33 Skill. It probably isn't enough, but I'm running out of ideas. On a brighter note, I enjoyed dinner tonight:

Or idk whats your parrying at right now?

The only problem I'd have with finishing SAM is gearing it up. I've been pushing it through with crap this entire time. I'll likely get to the point of no invites if I keep it up much longer :x (I did get Haubergeon, though, so I'm not -completely- useless)

I've given up on help.
The excuses Mai gave me were: Waste of time, not getting anything out of it, boring, just don't want to, want to play Aion.
Mai's a close friend, and through my logic, if she won't do it, I doubt I can find someone else. Too stressed trying to make it easier, so I might as well bite the bullet for a while.

One guide I had proposed lvling it thru solo lvling at least thru some of the harder lvls

Parrying is a funny skill to try to level. The problem is jobs that are good at it evade too much for it to activate. I always hear from NINs, SAMs and especially DNCs how hard it is to cap, however their skill is way below 200, almost like yours in 100-150 range. Personally, mines almost capped on PLD 215/225 atm, and thats mostly just happened from leveling the job to 75. I know I was just over 200 when I hit 75, the rest mainly came from Sky and Dynamis (main assist). The higher the skill level the slower it's been going up, I'm guessing because PLD only has a C in parrying though.
So basically my guess is since it only procs if evasions fails, the way to cap it on a job that's good at it, is to first get it to above 200 using a job that's a C in parrying and a C in evasion (PLD, DRG, BST, WAR). Once it's above 200, then switch to a job that's an A at it (THF, NIN, SAM), but stack on a bunch of -eva gear, or cap it with COR (A- parrying D evasion).

Rdm is probably the best getting it to 210. Low evasion. The ability to solo insane number of mobs at once. It's yummy

All of which begs the question... How desperate am I to continue skilling?
Answer: Not desperate enough to go back and level a whole nother job...

You're doing parrying, right, Tou? All I'll say is naturally tanking in situations helped mine tons. Between exp parties (tanked often as SAM/RNG leveling), merits and tanking in Salvage mine got to 210 without ever going into a place specifically planning to skill it. Now I'm to the point of needing a partner and hitting a place like Boyahda being why I've stopped. I'd definitely say get to 75 before focusing on parrying, though, as you'll waste an obscene amount of time trying to catch up to cap each time you level. :c

Yeah I'd suggest do some solo lvling while waiting for pts or something you'll get skill ups. Or wait for martial master and do lots of FOV or something lol

Ludoggy said: Caiyuo said: (tanked often as SAM/RNG leveling) rare =o This was like ..I wanna say over a year ago when SAM/RNG was still considered rare, before the 2H patch. Then everyone said it was teh ghey and Polearm onry, but I can't imagine any other way to have more fun on SAM leveling. lol Pretty much all of AU has a exp route for pure piercing and even on normal mobs like Erucas in Mount Z it was effective. Super easy to gear for as well since so much Racc gear is cheap and available, as opposed to Polearm where you need straight Melee acc up dabutt. :<

Hey Cai, is Soboro required for the SAM/RNG combo, or just preferred? I can only remember seeing the combo once, and it was in my very first linkshell back when I had first started.
Interested in trying it, but too lazy to go get Archery caught up

Since we all can't be on the same linkshell in game, this can be our cross server linkshell thread.
Like most linkshells, it can be pretty dead at times. Other times it's full of intense conversations about either rl, gear, goals, pokemon or anything else you want to contribute.
We can cover any sort of topic at all, within reason of the forum rules. No real main topic, just a bunch of FFXIAH friends/people coming on and discussing random things.

Update: Sorry Eternaltriumph, too much has changed D: (Page 698)
Eternaltriumph said: Yeah Chuu. Bringing you up to speed, Ludoggy is the LS pedophile. I'm the fountain of random and useless knowledge that makes you go "Hrm" with the occasional side of "holy shit he said what?"
Kungfu is the LS nutjob, spouting super random things that are usually sexist, until Savvy or Alyria comes into the room. Then he's a classic case of sexual harrassment. Rumaha is also true to the second part; we're wondering about his sexuality though.
Daj is Ludoggy's gay lover. Not much else is known about this Asuran. Tairo is kinda new, but since is a female and Alyria's lesbian lover, she fit right in real quick.
Celene(F) and Rowland(M) are more of the shyer members, but often say things that are witty, have a good pun and sometimes cause three page discussions. Celene hates when people hit on her. It doesn't stop them from trying.
Krizz is just social and likes to kill time here during work Tbest is about the same, except tends to be a douche to guys and affectionate toward girls.
Alyria is the most social female, gets groped a lot without provoking it by others, and Tairo ends up stabbing people for it. Cai is just a barrel of lols, I might be gay for him. If I wasn't straight.
Not sure about Citag, s/he's new. Kiriyu is just an in-out kinda person. Says one thing every three days that every guy makes a big fuss over. Ludoggy gets really defensive since she's asian and underage (might be 18 now).
Artem is the wayward soul that makes you ponder the meaning of life by constantly reminding us life can suck. But he deals, and so do we. About the same for Savannah, except people are more "AWH!" to her because of a vagina involved.
Dasva is the ex military man (as is Krizz but this doesn't apply to him) who hates the world and plots a way to destroy most of it.
Number2 is kinda like a mix between Cai and I; never bashes, likes to laugh and has odd avatars. His current suits a lot of the convos this LS gets into. Barti is most well known for his moustache. He gives mousatche rides for a fee. I'm missing a few people but whatever. CARRY ON!
Luelle Smells.
