Might help with visibility if you have the server and recruiting somewhere in the title.

These are the two sets I use. It gives you under a 15 sec recast on absorb-TP with capped haste. When I was Cor (ML 50) for 100+ kills, I never a has a resist with threnody & frazzle up.
-- Fast Cast (Cor)
sets.precast.FC = {
ammo=gear.RAbullet,
head={ name="Carmine Mask +1", augments={'Accuracy+20','Mag. Acc.+12','"Fast Cast"+4',}},

The problem is that the time and effort you spend in Sortie is rewarded with armor and prime weapons. The content is worth doing even if the earrings didn't exist, so the arguments don't hold up.
This. Almost no one is doing Sortie specifically FOR earrings, those are just a nice little carrot that they dangle as an additional bonus to encourage people to come into Sortie. Some people don't care about Sortie outside of upgrading Empy armor. Some people just hop in to do some runs with friends and otherwise ignore the event. Maybe they get an earring that helps make it a little more worthwhile - a small token.
I don't see why it's all that strange to re-use the same random reward item in other places to drive engagement. More chances at something designed to be a random lottery that might reward you with crap and might reward you with something really nice is... fine?
Sortie had exclusivity for this little perk for a while, it's just getting slightly more widely available now to encourage people to do daily logins even if they don't care about Sortie. Sortie still obviously has a purpose, giving a random earring box or two a month is not killing the event that is the only way to upgrade Empy armor and make Primes.

"every time a double attack procs, you will consume 1,000 gil,"
SE's creative new way of making gil vanish from the servers. Well done (not falling for it)
With SE's ancient spaghetti code, there has never been a higher chance of something going wrong that deletes all of someone's gil or dupes to infinity and it's right here

I'm super glad you pointed this one out. This weaponskill fantastic and extremely under utilized. The fact that it's ranged means we don't have to worry about swinging too fast and breaking it like with Shadowstitch.

I'm at Mastery Rank 7 with 1069 RoE done and 823 titles. Guess this is the push I needed to continue the bits I know I've been slacking on. Ugh.
I do kinda wonder about this reversal from SE - resources? For XI? I'm also not entirely buying it.

I think I'd rather the Gil to DA ammo just work when equipped instead of messing with a timer or use effect or the cast/ability lockout that occurs with so many items. I don't like using a RR item and then can't cast anything for like 5secs after the item's animation finished. It seems like they're targeting a use of it basically any time you want, anyway. Let my gear swaps dictate instead of a use-effect. Its so no one can complain that they accidentally drained their bank because “oops it was equipped and I didnt notice”. Its equipped and its a conscious* decision to use the enhancement.
* until someone automates its usage

3 new AMAN equipment shown off alongside the dbl atk ammo, congrats to those who kept up their mastery rank?
https://imgur.com/a/eY33iRg
Edit: Oh damn, so max Mastery Rank is all atrributes +30, new Maat's cap equivalent.
Is that what "Knowledge Rank" is? Are we sure that's what "ALL BP" means, attributes? Lol, now it "means" something. GG, gonna be a great race for those who never cared for it to get ranked up. Slide that followed the AMAN showcase:
Edit: Assuming BP is referring to all attributes according to JP wiki https://wiki.ffo.jp/html/37955.htmlWhat if I only own one face?

I'm not sure I'm buying the future plans slide because it sounds too good to be true, need better translation of the slide and the things they were saying around it.

If that Mastery Rank earring is as good as y'all are supposing, then maybe finally something will replace Moonshade WS phase? :D :D? :D? :D?
No?
Damn.

Limbus NPC Update

When was this recorded? Weekly reset is in 2 days, maint is in 5 days. Are they suggesting that the reset for limbus drop rates is tied to the monthly server maintenance?

Yeah, through its use of lots of weapons, WAR actually has access to a decent enfeebling kit, too!
Paralyze - Herculean Slash/Numbing Shot/Blade: Retsu(NIN sub only) - Great Sword/Marksmanship/Katana
Sleep - Shockwave - Great Sword
Slow - Great Axe - Ukko's Fury
Attack Down - Weapon Break(T1 -25%)/Infernal Scythe(T1 -25%)/Full Break(T3 -12.5%) - Great Axe
Defense Down - Armor Break/Shell Crusher(T1 -25%)/Metatron Torment(T2 -20%)/Full Break(T3 -12.5%) - Great Axe/Staff
Evasion Down - Shield Break(T1 -40evade)/Fullbreak(T3 -20evade) - Great Axe
Accuracy Down - Full Break(-20accuracy)/Extenerator - Great Axe/Dagger
Crit Evasion Down - Stardiver - Polearm
Poison - Wasp Sting/Viper Bite - Dagger
Bind - Shadowstitch/Bora Axe - Dagger/Axe
Magic Defense Down - Shattersoul - Staff
INT down - Skullbreaker/Sniper Shot/Dulling Arrow - Club/Marksmanship/Archery
Flash - Flash Nova - Club
Stun - Flat Blade/Smash Axe/Leg Sweep/Brainshaker/Shoulder Tackle/Tachi: Hobaku(SAM or NIN sub required) - Sword/Axe/Polearm/Club/Hand to Hand/Great Katana
Drain - Sanguine Blade - Sword
Aspir - Energy Steal/Drain - Dagger
Choke(VIT down, dot tic) - Gale Axe - Axe
Blind - Nightmare Scythe - Scythe
Obviously some of the weapon choices are impractical due to needing sub/having same effect on more accessible weapon, but I think this is all status ailments Warrior can inflict. At least before we delve into Ammo stat effects/Magian Weapons.

It just depends if it wears off when taken off. If so, COR/RNG can't use it at all, and SMN likely wouldn't because they have to use a non-ilvl ammo for their avatar.
You know i was just basing it off the image so i assumed it was a neck piece, it being ammo does change some things lol

FWIW you can stand outside of melee range and still use WS, since the distance between the two actions are different. Mostly everybody does WS disengaged, but it can even be done while engaged without any gearswap functionality with proper positioning. Just not many people do it anymore (I've seen some who still do).

Did the frepi say the enchantment lasts 1min? Because I see no reason why it can't last longer in itself, but vanishing when the ammo is unequipped, hence the 1min recast time on the ammo.

A few, like pure-mages(whm, blm, smn etc) jobs with little in TA and middling in DA like drk or drg, cor and rng i guess

That's really the problem: you'd think the effort would meet the reward, but they've introduced so many RNG reward systems that are disrespectful to your time and effort.
The problem is that the time and effort you spend in Sortie is rewarded with armor and prime weapons. The content is worth doing even if the earrings didn't exist, so the arguments don't hold up.

Based on the 1 minute recast, I thought it would be a one-attack round enchantment?
But if its not, how many jobs would actually benefit from 100% DA?

Every attack round and ws for 1 entire minute is like 100k
Double for DW

When the pic dropped I theorized that this was 1000 gil per hit and not just an one-off activation fee, did they elaborate on that? Being on hit would make it a bit more like virtue stone weapons, in a way, and be a serious gil sink, which FFXI sorely needs.
Sorry, I wasn't clear (it's after 2am here and I am tired lol). Yes, at 2:27:04 Fujito says "every time a double attack procs, you will consume 1,000 gil," hence the Zeninage joke/comment. I'm gonna sleep but if you/anyone has more questions I can give it a proper watch tomorrow and try to answer things.
