They aren't sendable. Can you use them for regular synths?

Can't turn if you swing and kill yourself after he casts it but before your brain registers what he cast because it was a split second; it's the same reason pre-nerf Glassy Thinker was such a horrible ***.
It’s not complicated; You turn to face a mob only if it’s safe. So if he is casting *anything* you don’t turn to face him until your brain registered it as safe, that way even if you turn to face for a milisecond and 8 attacks proc, they will all execute while you are facing away and there is no risk to be animation locked. You can also weaponskill facing away.
Me thinks ws facing away is not "available" to all, just those not on vanilla me thinks

That's still performing facing you just see the animation after. I think that distance axe one is fully backward useable though.

You’re right and according to the game you technically weaponskilled in the milisecond you spun to face the mob, this just removes any animation lock risks.
I just blink! Screw you healers

There's definitely some kind of system where Domain Invasion dragons are weakened if they despawn instead of dying. When going out to fight Azi Dahaka today, he popped with 70% HP, had only 19.4% PDT, and was hitting relatively weaker than normal. After I killed it, the next one had 41.5% PDT, and was hitting like normal.

Does anyone happen to know any details on the conditions for this? Do they need to be fought and failed to kill, or does them just spawning and despawning with no one fighting them count?

Anyone ever done UO with pup(s)?

Ive done it a thousand times with blu/nin/rdm but that's semi labor intensive 3boxing so I'm curious can I take 3 pups and just attack and afk.

Ok so this has been on my mind awhile, where can you farm ethereal squama from? I know verthandi and I've heard real low chance from celaeno but the amounts I'm seeing go through AH is insane

Good luck. iirc drops from the stronghold invasion things don't show up on there and they do get new drops so maybe that? Been awhile since I did those so forget the drops cause they were pretty meh

Help! I'm trying to 3D print my character!

I recently made a Bastok emblem wall scroll, and now I'm trying to create a mini Morihei. I know you can make 3D renders in Altana viewer. I know you can 3D print things. Is there any way to put the two together? Or is there some other way to make 3D prints of FFXI characters?

It's definitely possible as all the data is there, it's a matter of exporting it to a usable format. Warpy might know, and I seem to recall there being a thread about it on BG at some point. Can't personally outline the process though, sorry.

Hi.

I managed to raise my dragon to its final stage and got his cheering. So is there anything else i need from it or can i dismiss him and start a new one (thought that sounds quite cruel)?

Another question from monster rearing, my king behemoth is taking ages to get new stars. I just feed him daily, dont use any of the interaction as he doesnt like anything there. So whats the optimal way to speed up king behemoth growth rate?

Thanks in advance.

Be warned that behemoth takes several months of daily interactions, literally, to unlock everything.

To speed up start multiple ones at the same time, feed them daily with the best food, did the right interaction every time, get item every day if you need ki from current form (avoid if you don't) and maximize the benefits from campaigns

Does anyone else have input about 3D printing an FFXI character? I know there was a method posted in 2007, but surely something has changed since then.

This will kinda work, but the output is a little sloppy, too. Plus, it's from 2013. I was hoping someone had an updated method.

Anybody has any tips for VD Diabolos II solo/duo? Tried it tonight on BLU and managed to win only once in VD but all the other tries nightmare is basically a death sentence even with capped DT set + cocoon and all procs. Even RUN with triple lux pflug + barsleep doesn't resist the effect and in general kills much slower

Hi.

In the past i remember i could server transfer diferent chars within the same account in different moments if during the week of the purchase. For example, i needed an item in another server, so i had a char A created in that server, i purchase server transfer and send char B with the money to buy the item, then char B gives the item to char A (that was just created) then using same server transfer service, i bring char A to my server together with the item. I remember doing that before.

But now, it seems the FFXI doesnt allow you to transfer a char you hadnt transfer in the first moment (the transfer option is unavailble during the 3 days cooldown).

So the question is if its really impossible to transfer that char A (that was just created and never transfered before) back to my server before the 3 days cooldown.

Thanks in advance.

Nightmare is a 20' aoe centered on target with hate. Just position someone who can cure at 20.1+ from the tank/hate target

Oh, I assumed it was centered on Diabolos and didn't get why my whm mule was getting hit. I'll give it a try later, thanks!

The 3 day cooldown is tied to SE account, not POL account. So, you can transfer a new character that hasn't existed for 3 days. However, you can't do it within 3 days of doing the transfer to deliver gil. GMs may allow additional character movement if you call and complain you made a mistake shortly after the transfer, is it possible that's how you retrieved Char A in your example before?

I think when i did that maneuver it was old account page, and iirc you could change if within the interval after purchase. Since then the account page changed (it was after they started to accept paypal as payment) and that option is gone now. After i made the question i reread the SE FAQ, and its clear that in case of "mistake" they would first judge if "necessary" they would transfer without another purchase and within the 3 days.

In the end, i had to pay another server transfer to bring the item back to me (i created a new char in another account in the server i bought the item, got the item from the original mule and transfered it back home - the first mule is forever trapped in asura lol).
