Its all about pathing. run too fast in a straight line for long enough and you will lose line of sight/smell/depop from outranging. Run zigzag and they will stay within range. It's only when returning to camp you have to worry about that since that's the longest stretch. You still have to run in front of beetles to aggro them instead of through them with sound aggro mobs, so it doesn't happen commonly tbh.

Wouldn't expect it. Maybe he can snag a nomination, but even that is a stretch.

I could pull 50 or the entire zone (Hippomenes Socks +1 swap if I wanted to be cute), but what matters is the chain. So pulling the entire zone is less EP overall because of the time it takes to pull. You will lose chain by the time the next group comes in if you pull full zone. With BRD, you pull one side, 20-30 mobs or whatever, run to camp, lullaby, on route to next 20-30 mobs, repeat. By the time group 2 is killed, group 1 re-spawns. That was a way more efficient way to do it, and PLD is a wasted slot if you're using it as a puller. Don't you lose chain anyway? I mean don't you have less than 30 seconds since last kill to keep the chain up after #38 or whatever it is?
Pulling the whole zone is, I dunno, 150 mobs? If you lose the chain you would get 0% bonus and then increase by 2% up to the first 50 mobs, then full 100% bonus for the remaining 100 deaths, which isn't too bad?
Then again pulling everything would take a LOT of time, and I agree your method of always keeping the flow of mobs sounds so much more efficicent in theory, I was just wondering if you really have time to pull, gather, sleep and kill a group of 30 mobs in less than 30 seconds without using flee hacks.
Seems a bit unreliable to me but if you say it was easy I'll trust you!

I mean the way my group did it is we took turns being the pld and cleaving for everyone else while they afk or just chat on discord. Much easier to not burn out if you only actually have to cleave 1/6 of the time.

Is there any way to check/know when the chocobo race is going to start (for monthly deed roe) or is it just show up and afk simulator? Was hoping there was an online schedule calculator or at least an npc in game I believe they're roughly around :05/:20/:35/:50. Give or take.

PLD is the puller and the killer with infinite tp

i liked Crawlers' Nest (S) before they changed it
Could probably get M.Lv 50 there with AOE setups
Even though that was a good camp
I had a feeling it wasn't going to last
Got lots of /tell saying they were going to report
For pulling most of the zones mobs / hording mobs

I mean. It's impossible to do. You can never sate that kind of desire.

Solution id think would have been to make more aoe camps imo

So, you can buy primes.

Thats easy when you can bring samurai to everything. Or it's your only job. Just perks of the job is all really. It's not the same situation or pride for someone whose main is BLM, who WILL need to grind EP to get comparably that high

Says who? Asura shouts every single day (I have them blocked, but ffxiah shows them) for "40k Sortie Gallimaufry" runs. You absolutely can buy a Prime, or at least the Gallimaufry part. Wouldn't be surprised if groups sell Mesos too.
Gross.... *** cesspool of a server. No wonder 99% of the people I meet who have transferred from there are useless.
Its not so much the job sam I'm proud about its the way I've gotten my ep. I'm aware sams stupid good at killing ep mobs, I still very rarely ever ep and only with a full party. 95% of my ep has come from playing the job in actual content. Thats the thing I value.

Oscar worthy though?

If you do 8 bosses runs, way too grindy but still much better than ML50, imho.
Explain to me how 8-bossing an entire Stage 5 is better than grinding ML50, both beginning to end. I'm curious to hear this one. (in fact, you cannot solely "8-boss" a 5, because you require Aminon for Mesosiderites, unless you include Aminon in some runs instead of the other 8 bosses)

But to the same end, do players consider Sortie's stage 5 requirements to be unreasonable? If you do 9 bosses runs, perfectly reasonable.
If you do 8 bosses runs, way too grindy but still much better than ML50, imho.
With the "little" difference that you can merc buy or bot ML whereas you, reasonably, cannot do that with Primes lol xD

I thought master levels where meantto he some extra grindy thing that would take a long time. I'm pretty proud of being a 46 fam without any botting and very little exp farms. Almost all done in content.

Personally I treat ml 50 as an identifer the persin probably bots and probably is actually terrible at player said jobs. I've rarely been proven wrong. Thats a huge bonus in filtering out shitty players.
