Quote: Just for clarity sense some of you aren't too bright. Every time a Hume does limbus they'll get a 1m shard. But every time a Taru goes they only get a 500k shard. Your character is only worth half a hume. Or you have to spend twice as much on the AH. Or you have to take twice as long to build your war sets. That's *** up.
Taurus are only half as tall as Humes, so their shards are worth half as much!! S-E marketing ploy to encourage players to use the race change so they can squeeze extra profit from the cash services!!
(It’s really just bad game design, probably anyway. But I couldn’t resist the height pun (punt?)) |

The hissyfit that taru characters are going to throw if they have to get twice as many shards as the other races to get desirable gear is something you would think they'd be smart enough to avoid.
It would've made more sense if TT is head GK is body HM is legs MR is hands and EV is feet instead.
That way Taru wouldn't be getting *** over.

All the more reason to race change? :P |

Shards are AHable and tradeable, so not sure why are people even concerned. If you don't need one, sell/trade it and get other.
All of those sets (beside Taru) have pieces that will be highly popular. |

Carbuncle.Maletaru said: »It seems extremely clear from basic inference.
When opening the chest in Limbus, if your server killed enough NMs, you will have a chance to get a shard of your character's race.
These shards are, presumably, used to uncurse (and likely augment) the armor that matches your race's AA.
Taru: BLM, SCH, GEO, SMN
Hume: WAR, BRD, NIN
Elvaan: RDM, WHM, PLD, RUN, DRK, BLU
Galka: COR, RNG, SAM, DRG
Mithra: THF, DNC, BST, MNK, PUP
So... your race determines what rewards you get. Could this be considered # RacialPrivilege ?
'Mithra have less opportunities for wealth than Humes'. ('cuz no one gives a ***about Bst vs. War) |

I got a Malignance box on a mule.
Meaningful news there, confirming that the box is what they included in the dial (and not, for some reason, the original 5 armor pieces). Good.
Just got Regal Gauntlets (PLD/RUN hands)
Also seems like big news, confirming Ou items are included in this dial. AFAIK, and according to the item metadata as shown on BG, that was not the case for any of the previous gobbiebox dials. Though notable that Ou stuff can be an AMAN Trove reward, actually where I got my Regal Gauntlets. |

Use the shards, Alabaster Matter, and Murky Matter that can be obtained from the treasure chests and trade them to the Temenos Furnace or Apollyon Furnace. |

I don’t have an active sub rn.
Can someone briefly explain to me what the whole ‘race based drop items’ was about that SE posted in the Dec update?

I assume you use HQ crystal? Also, anyone have data on that rusk + 1 ring as compared to the HQ synth +1 ring?

Apologies for the delay in following up with some of these things, work got busy as we closed up for the holidays and I'm just now having free time to devote to catching up.
Here's a link to an addon that will report Chatnachoq's completed mazes value while it's loaded. Just talk to him and it'll log out the relevant piece of the menu params.
https://github.com/kaytecat/FFXI-Misc/tree/main/mazecount
I was trying to figure out if the params also are tracking which runes/etc you have but never got that far and I don't want it to block it when I don't know when I'll get back to it (I'm notoriously bad about getting stuff done I don't need).
Titles addon is basically completed, going through some testing and feedback from others now, will post that here shortly as well. I'm assuming it's similar to Thorny's Ashita addon though I wrote it from scratch myself. |

Theyll add a message to HQ box when you dont get your 5k units
And it will instead break HQ box entirely. It wont consume your KIs , it wont increase your cap, but it will still count against your weekly 5. It wont be fixed until next maintenance either.
Lets be real here, we been playin this game for long enough to know how this ***goes
