It seems pretty clear to me from the FFXIDB data that the best source is Legion, Hall of Mul.
Bad news: the drop rate is god awful.
Good news: With proper gear/jobs/buffs, you can murder dozens of them per run.

Where/what is the best place/thing to farm Dark carol II? (or i supppose Carol II in general,) Is that one of the ones that comes from Legion? I remember Dark and maybe Wind being hard to get; they might have come primarily from the Voidwatch and Legion battles of their time.

The longer I play WAR and the more toys I pick up for it, the more I work out that it's pretty "right-tool-for-the-job". Some are multi-purpose, some are less so.
WAR/DRG with Naegling is my pick when the target is either going to die very quickly and TP gain doesn't matter as much (e.g. C seg farms, Sortie A-D bosses) or is going to live long enough and is threatening enough that enmity actually matters (e.g. Dyna-D W3 boss). Substitute in Loxotic Mace +1 for slashing resist mobs or to avoid the wall.
WAR/SAM with Chango has always pulled far ahead of other options for me when I've got the chance to self-SC freely (e.g. dumpstering Ou in Omen, certain Naakuals in Sortie, and Limbus).
WAR/SAM with Laphria is my all-rounder, except when I need to avoid certain skillchains (e.g. Sortie E boss). It hits about as hard as Naegling's Savage Blade, pound for pound, with quicker TP gain and opportunity to skillchain incidentally with others or myself if the chance comes up.
WAR/SAM with Ukonvasara if amnesia or TP wipe is a big feature of the fight (e.g. Moogle ambu), if I don't feel like thinking very hard and focus on getting uptime, or if I've got a particular suite of buffs that support the AM3 proper.
WAR/SAM with Shining One pulls ahead versus piercing weak mobs.
WAR/NIN with Ikenga's/TP Bonus OH for winging out Mistrals if I'm feeling froggy in Limbus or Dyna-D and want shadows, great for sniping skillchains with DDs working across the pack.
Farsha fencer build on deck for things like v25 Kalunga where you can do Naegling-like damage and avoid walling others, really taking advantage of the fencer trait.
I love Ukon to death, but it doesn't achieve its full potential if you're only getting bog-standard DD buffs and only fighting mobs that die in a single weaponskill.

Bahamut.Xenophane said: »I wouldn't say I had the same experience in segments with Ukon, WAR loses AM3 so often due to just weapon swapping. Laphria is just easier to use by comparison without relying on aftermath upkeep. Ukon in segments is really nice when BRD is pulling multiple camps and you can pick and choose targets based on damage type and when AM3 is already dropping. Only time I have ever really liked it in Segments. Also use Double COR

Chanti's always been one of the cooler heads, very reasonable. Very experienced. Probably a bombshell back in her day, too, I'd wager! Still is and always will be ;)

I lost all interest when it wasn't open source. The biggest reason being there's no ability to check what you wrote.
Even if it's a website, no reason you actually have to host it. You can just download it locally and opening the site.

Went to my friends house to play Mortal Kombat Legacy Collection today cuz I am back on furlough. The input delay is a full second or more. They better patch that ***ASAP cuz that is unacceptable for any fighting game.

I was gonna say something
Involving how dogs identify others
And realized it would probably get the ads pulled followed up by knock at my front door
I mean if you want a knock at the back door, this is a judgement free zone.

I'd presume the person whos hand you're holding probably isnt up to snuff to be useful in a V25 fight and you'd be doing that fight short handed, so that would likely be a waste of segs.
I think you could carry a T1 V25. My win was the 'dry run' where people weren't eating HQ food or going full unga and we still smashed it. If you're getting carried I wouldn't suggest a V0 or a V1 to you, but that's just me.

can someone make a set for fast blade II on geo?
Stick to black halo or judgement you will do a lot more damage.

If you have capability to enter and clear v1 and choose instead to clear v0, that is indeed a waste of segs.

Again, if you're holding someones hand, why are you bringing them into V1 instead of V5 so they can get more RP and credit for a higher tier kill so when they go on their own, they can jump right to V10?
Why stop here though? If you're gonna make the segs useful, do a V25 Gogmagog or something they want to RP.
